Awww she even has her own little tent so cute!
Oops sorry you two, I missed these comments in the update 2 minutes ago! Ugh I suck!

I love her tiny tent, don't you?!!! Hahaha!
They all look healthy n happy living together in Krissi land.
Hi Clover, sorry again for missing this buddy! Thank you!! I'm trying to keep everyone happy
Peanut butter cookies are my fav. Your child has got good taste in cookies. lol Happy growing Jersey and hope your weekend rocks 🪨. CL🍀 :thumb: :cheer:
He insisted they were not reeses pieces but Halloween sprinkles, after arguing for 20 min, we got the cookies with the Halloween sprinkles :rofl: 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️
 
Highya Krissi,

Love looking at your marinara! I have no doubt that an Italian lady would make a delicious sauce!! Would be nice to be able to have a taste right out of the pot!!
When before looking at your tent pics, I couldn't see where Durban leaves off and Amnesia starts. Now I can tell. Durban takes up a lot of space in there!! But she's a beautiful lady! G-13 - the plant of the day - I love the tops with all those little leaves emerging from around the bud sites. I have a couple like that. So nice looking with all that dainty growth! Also, she looks like a sativa (thin fingered leaves), but supposed to be a hard hitting indica! I'm hoping you can tell us with the smoke report! After going back for another look, G-13 looks gorgeous with so many pistils showing everywhere!
Well, I'd like to stay and chat, but I need to cut some wood today. Mid to high 70's temp today. Good day for cutting wood! Happy Smokin'
 
Yes, still getting better. I find when I get upset or aggravated, the tightness and sharp pain comes back so I'm trying to be as nominal as I can be with my emotions-even if that means not texting or calling my sister and raising hell over something she did that in any other normal right, I would have taken on the additional stress load just to be able to speak my mind...buuuuuut we talked about the need to reduce or eliminate stressors so I'm doing my damndest to just ignore her ignorance and blasphemy.

I wish I knew! Mine is such a talker omg just won't shut up and is like a dog-wants to be on you ALL the time. He loves marijuana and wants smoke blown in his face the entire time you smoke a joint and he looooves ice cream, Coffee, Sweet Cream and Green Tea, especially, so if you have a pint of ice cream out, he is going to be pawing at it until you give him some.

I really am, I know I was kind of blah in the beginning when I first came back, felt like my spark was gone for life. Friend actually told me the other day that I've changed since she met me, said I used to be much more bubbly and smiley and she can tell life has taken its toll on me emotionally as of late. I hate hearing that, I feel it but I've always been good at hiding it...the fact that I can't hide it well anymore just proves to me this is a situation I need a solution to ASAP.

Oh I know and it is not putting me out at all, i always cook for 15 anyway! Yesterday was a sauce day...yummmy!!! Would love for you to try Krissi Sauce!

That's right friends, believe it or not, mason jars are for things other than buds!

She is a girthy gal!

My spindly mutant Sativa Angelina, she got some yo-yos this morning after all.





Our Plant of the Day today!

She may be short and stout but her dense nugs on that solid small frame still give me 6oz so I'm down for 6 oz of fantastic kerosene smelling dank smoke.

You're welcome, you will probably enjoy this update more than the ones prior since it has a focus again and it's not just group shots! Now is the time though, as you said, to look at how each of these different strains develops through flower! Have a great day Bode!


So guys today is DAYS 58/59/60! Which brings us to DAY 8 FLOWER! Here is the full tent:










I got some shots of the tent minus one or two ladies as I was cleaning and adding those yo-yos in and getting shots of Geneva, our G-13 Plant of the Day!











Since I had taken out both Marilyn and Geneva for this tent clean up, I decided I would take some side by sides of these two. One, NYC Diesel, a Hybrid consisting of Hawaiian, Afghani and Sour Diesel genes. The other, G-13, whose parents and actual beginning are still unknown-all we know for certain is that she is a heavy hitting Indica who is said to be the result of government mind control testing at a base in Mississippi back in the early 1960s. A tech leaked out a cutting in the mid 1980s and as such, it hit the streets.












Finally off to discussing a little more in depth, our lady of the day, Geneva: Seedfinder credits this strain with 10.00 of 10 possible points based off of customer reviews

TERPENES​


-Carene: 0.23% (a.k.a Delta-3 carene) known for citrus, cypress aroma

-Pinene: 0.1% the terpene found in pine, nutmeg, and rosemary

-Ocimene: 0.26% lends a sweet, herby flavor

-Humulene: 0.26% contributes to the earthy flavors of the strain

-Phellandrene: 0.16% is a citrus terpene rarely seen in cannabis. It’s believed to have antidepressive effects. Lavender, black pepper and cinnamon contain this terpene.


GENERAL BREAKDOWN
*Note*
This particular G-13 is currently 3.5 inches over general maximum height

Yield Indoor: 21 oz/m2
THC 23.5% CBD 0,7%

HEIGHT: 35 - 43 inches

FLOWERING TIME: 10-12 Weeks

MEDICAL: Anxiety Depression Insomnia Pain Stress

EFFECTS: Calming Relaxed Uplifted

FLAVOR: Berry Earthy Mint Pine Pungent Sweet Woody


Finally some photos of our mind controlling, heavily sedating, anxiety ridding, insomnia stopping gem of an Indica, G-13, "Geneva"














That's all for today fam, have a fantastic grow Saturday and remainder of your grow weekend!
How do you have your yo-yo’s hanging on your light? CL🍀. :thumb: :circle-of-love:
 
Plants look phenomenal, hope you're feeling better and have a relaxing weekend.
My brother Gid, and how are you today? I'm doing better! Thank you bunches, you do the same my friend :love:
Highya Krissi,
HIYA Bode
Love looking at your marinara! I have no doubt that an Italian lady would make a delicious sauce!! Would be nice to be able to have a taste right out of the pot!!
Thanks so much!! I was having taste after taste for 6 hours making sure it was just right!
When before looking at your tent pics, I couldn't see where Durban leaves off and Amnesia starts. Now I can tell.
The Amnesia grows like a weed (lol) though, dont be surprised to see her sprawl out onto and into Uma!!!
Durban takes up a lot of space in there!! But she's a beautiful lady!
She really does, she is my tree this grow, such a round lady!!
G-13 - the plant of the day - I love the tops with all those little leaves emerging from around the bud sites. I have a couple like that. So nice looking with all that dainty growth! Also, she looks like a sativa (thin fingered leaves), but supposed to be a hard hitting indica! I'm hoping you can tell us with the smoke report! After going back for another look, G-13 looks gorgeous with so many pistils showing everywhere!
Well the thing about G-13 is that she started as a 100% indica but rumor has it, down the line, she was mixed with a Sativa somewhere and the good weed seed folks believe at this far down the line, we could have most G-13s as actually 70/30 Indica/Sativa but again, we really just don't know but that could explain some of the more narrow leaves she boasts!
Well, I'd like to stay and chat, but I need to cut some wood today. Mid to high 70's temp today. Good day for cutting wood! Happy Smokin'
NICE WEATHER! Going to be 87 today and 90 tomorrow ugh....forecast says come 10 days, we will be dipping down into pre-fall weather with temps only reaching the high 70s as well. Great for me as the cooler nights to come will really help enhance Bubblegum's foliage color! You don't work too hard and take plenty of breaks and drink lots and lots of water while you are out there breaking your back! :hug:
That was a multi bit tour :circle-of-love: :high-five: :woohoo:
Awww I'm glad you enjoyed it! Come around whenever, always blessed to have you stop in! :circle-of-love:
How do you have your yo-yo’s hanging on your light? CL🍀. :thumb: :circle-of-love:
Oh my Clover! They're not hanging on the light-that's a terrible idea! I have them attached to black zip ties on the horizontal poles of the tent :high-five:
That sauce! :drool:It looks delicious. Beautiful plants too, but real Italian sauce, Krissie sauce, yum.
Thank you Carmen!! Best part of the sauce and what makes it- my garden tomatoes. I just think the fresher the vine ripeness the better the quality of the sauce! :yummy:


Just closing off this post with a few pics of Aurora outside in her little butterfly enclosure. Cloudy here so my apologies for any extra shadows.....have a great rest of the day, thanks for the continued grow love! :green_heart:







 
Whew! I just flew in from D.C. and boy are my arms tired! :sorry:

Sorry I'm so late arriving Joisey. I spent the last few days catching up and it has been a rollercoaster of a read.

Your plants look great, kinda' like most of yours that came before them! :Rasta:

Regarding other matters, please do all that you can to achieve serenity.

BTW, I absolutely love your son's baking gear! When I find some I like, my grandson's will be getting sets too!:)

Best wishes. I'll be hanging around!
 
Well, I'd like to stay and chat, but I need to cut some wood today. Mid to high 70's temp today. Good day for cutting wood!
Just sharpened 7 blades last week & 1 today
 
Highya Joe,

You must have a pto rig for a tractor? Can cut a lot of wood with those. I use a chainsaw. Cut right in the pile. Happy Smokin'

No just chainsaw blades. Uncle had a rig with a 3-foot blade. ran off the pto w/ belt

Just making a bit of extra cash, sharpening blades for a Tree cutter I know

Still got to cut some myself, Got a line on a lifetime supply of dry wood, hope it happens
 
Whew! I just flew in from D.C. and boy are my arms tired! :sorry:
Do you need me to send you my CBD roll on from @Green Roads CBD? I'm more than happy to share! Always a pleasure to have you on my journals GDB, regardless of what time your flight gets in

Aww thank you so much! This is a great and easy grow so far, after getting over the Pythium and the loss of our Sour G, everything has been smooth sailing!
Regarding other matters, please do all that you can to achieve serenity.
I'm doing my best to address that in every which way I can, thank you again :hug:

Happy to have you, of course, and thanks yet again, Amazon is where I got my set!! My son loves his!

My working men! Chopping wood. These guys really work hard for their life!



So guys I have one journal I really need to catch up on some from @marcus611a, I've done pretty well at catching up on the others but his will take me some time. He has Sour G in his tent and as we know, I lost mine, so I'm really curious to see how he is doing with his. Not to mention, this is a duplicate run for him with this strain and as we all are, he is advancing in his grows as well and I am excited to see his growth as a cultivator over these last few months.

That's what I really love about this site, the love I see for the grows both from the grower and their followers. I just had to say my piece on the NOTM contest because it's really important that we invest our time here in making others grows better and/or helping to build confidence within those growers. It's what makes this forum tick, just like heartbeats close together will fall into similar rhythms, if we keep ourselves mindful and in the moment here with eachother, we will all fall under a similar calm rhythm. If we don't, we will all fall privy to the other end of the spectrum, we will all fall into a stressed rhythm-one in which will inevitably, hurt our grows and our ability to take in information.

We all do best in an environment conducive to growth and well being, when that environment changes so does our head space and as such, our ability to care for our plants, decreases. We miss things we wouldn't normally miss. We get frustrated and stifle and our plants suffer right there along with us.

In an effort to keep things pleasant, let's just get to the pics of the day. GENEVA, my G-13, was fed this morning along with UMA, my Durban. ANGELINA, Amnesia, was fed yesterday and MARILYN, NYC Diesel, will be fed tomorrow.

I did some under carriage, midline and what would be larf, defoliation this morning. Not the first time since flip to 12/12 as this is probably the 3rd time I've done it, all with about the same amount taken off each time. I do this regularly over the next 2 weeks so it is imperative I don't do too much at one time and stretch it out as to not stress out the girls too much-they are trying to do big things right now.

Other than that, like I said, I've got one last journal to catch up on and I'll see you guys around the forum and in your own journals as you update today. Have a fantastic Sunday and I look forward to a more in depth journal entry with a new Plant of the Day tomorrow!


















 
Highya Krissi,

How are you today? Stress level dissapating some? Your love is showing through again! That's a good sign.

Your ladies still look great. They look bigger today. Colas lok bigger, buds look like more, biomass is greater. Yup, they're liking being in your tent. I hope you have a great day! Happy Smokin'

I'm well today! Been a good since I woke up, definitely dissipating!!! Hurray! Hope your day has been wonderful!

They are developing fast, Durban the fastest even with her Sativa genes....Amnesia is the larger, NYC Diesel in 2nd and G-13 making up 3rd. They're happy now, just made the next feeds and I've given them an additional 5ml of PreCursor, which is PBlend's CMag component. Think it's time they get a little extra love as we push through. Next week remember, expect to see those buds growing even more as we implement in Humboldt's Flower Stacker....thinking even of a week 6 back-building......remember that?!

Talk to you soon Bode and for you and all our friends, just a little check in with our side outdoor grow, our Bubblegum Autoflower, "Aurora"

Your ladies are as beautiful as your heart my little Italian robe buddy. And your journals are always a pleasure to read. Sometimes very informative and straightforward. Other times full of funny stuff that cracks me up. I’m glad we have you back because you were sorely missed, now we need you to get these health issues sorted out. Happy growing n stay stress free. CL🍀. :morenutes: :cheesygrinsmiley:
My brother Gid, and how are you today? I'm doing better! Thank you bunches, you do the same my friend :love:

Just wondering cause that’s how it looked. Not that I would recommend it but it looked like it. CL🍀
 
Great plants as always Krissi
...but I got a ton of tomato, shallots, onions and Mediterranean herbs from the garden - so what's the low-down on the sauce? Love to try it
 
Highya Krissi,

Yes, I remember the back-building. Those were the biggest colas I've ever seen! I hope the smoke was good for you, because they looked so nice!! Am looking forward to the individual pictures again when you get to it. I'm hoping you're well and medicated! Happy Smokin'
 
Your ladies are as beautiful as your heart my little Italian robe buddy.
Awww my heart, thank you so kindly
And your journals are always a pleasure to read. Sometimes very informative and straightforward.
You know it gets boring with the same shit all the time. Try to keep it fresh but more than anything-keep it real. That's what I think the draw is to my journals and some others on the forum, it's just real people going through real shit and growing some bud in the midst of it all!
Other times full of funny stuff that cracks me up.
I'm glad I amuse you, funny like a clown!
I’m glad we have you back because you were sorely missed, now we need you to get these health issues sorted out. Happy growing n stay stress free. CL🍀. :morenutes: :cheesygrinsmiley:

Thanks a bundle, I'm always grateful for the good juju and love from ya my Maxwell House coffee 🍀 friend
Great plants as always Krissi
Thanks Roy!
...but I got a ton of tomato, shallots, onions and Mediterranean herbs from the garden - so what's the low-down on the sauce? Love to try it
Of course! Here we go.....

Well I don't measure but heres what goes in my sauce:
1 sm can tomato paste
1 lg can pureed tomatoes
1 lg can diced tomatoes
Whatever tomatoes from my garden that will fit in the pot (cherries or 100s just go right in, large ones like heirlooms or similar get cored and quartered.
Pot starts with grapeseed and olive oil mix, very finely diced lg Vidalia onion and tons of chopped garlic; deglaze with red wine of choice (I prefer Pinot Noir) then add in tomatoes
Seasoning is obviously garlic, along with: thyme, rosemary, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, onion powder and crushed red peppers
Sweet additions: I guess about 3/4c-1c sugar AND (if I know I don't have someone with a nut allergy coming to eat) 1/2c of Nutella. This adds a slight nuttiness to the undertone flavor and really brings it home.
Highya Krissi,
Hi friend
Yes, I remember the back-building. Those were the biggest colas I've ever seen!
Me too, did scare me every day though looking for mold in those big huge buds!
I hope the smoke was good for you, because they looked so nice!!
what do you mean WAS?! I have 4 jars of her still! Shes so wonderful!
Am looking forward to the individual pictures again when you get to it. I'm hoping you're well and medicated! Happy Smokin'
I have some today for you in fact, the insomnia monster got me at 330, finally said screw it at 430 and got up. Gave me more time with the girls and it worked out because my son decided 545 was the perfect time to get up today lol smh.....have a great day Bode!



So Good Morning Vietnam!!!

I decided to do a collective photographical for you all this morning as opposed to listening to me ramble about God knows what. In addition, we will have a slight introduction to the Amnesia strain: A sativa dominant with a little Indica kick

TypeMostly Sativa
Yield Indoor23 oz/m2
Yield Outdoor25 oz/plant
THC22%
CBD0,6%
HEIGHT31 - 75 inches
FLOWERING TIME8-10 Weeks
FLOWERING STYLEFeminized
HARVEST MONTHOctober
MEDICALAnxiety Depression Pain
FLAVORCitrus Earthy Pungent Sour Woody









-This strain is a potent bud that offers some mind bending and potentially overwhelming effects.

-Effects are hard hitting, heavily psychoactive and not the best for novice smokers

-This sativa dominant hybrid is a mix of three all-star cannabis strains: Jack Herer, Cinderella 99 and Skunk #1. The indica effects offered from Skunk #1, balance out the heavy sativa kick from the other two powerhouse parents.

-A strain best suited for social engagements and creative pursuits.

-Last award was 2nd place @ the 2016 Cannazores Cup, a total of 18 awards to date

-An easy strain to grow, it is a strain that is suitable for a beginner cultivator


This particular Amnesia lady got her yo-yos resituated today as well, 4 in total:









With that said, let's go further into our pictorial update.



First up we have the 4 together both in the tent and out:










Next we have the tent minus our Durban Poison, Uma










Next we have the tent with only G-13 and Amnesia












Next we have our little NYC Diesel (not so little anymore, I guess this Indica strain stretches late as we bumped up to 33 inches today-5 inches taller than even my last NYC) along with our mutant self-topper, Amnesia








Even got a couple of our growing Marilyn all by herself









And finally, to cap things off, we also got these next photos for comparative purposes-our tallest and our shortest in the tent, outside of the tent-Durban Poison and NYC Diesel








It is with those last 3 pictures that I sign off here and go back to my journal catching up after I get Mr. I Need To Get Up When The Sun Comes Up some breakfast and then my follow up cardiologist appt at 10 (Halter monitor today! Ugh hate wearing the electrodes!)

I'll catch you all around the site today, have a wonderful start to your weeks everyone!! Much grow love!
