GDB's Bubblegum Machine

[DeeBoy]

I hate that helmet, DeeBoy!

I usually don't have a problem removing them but this one was quite stubborn.

I just struck out on 2 in a row.... ahhhh!

Congrats on the twins and the living, sorry about the headless though.

This reminds me of an older tv commercial. “It’s not nice to fool Mother Nature”

Dena Detrich.

No science here. For the Anecdote!

For the anecdote!

Sorry about the stuck helmet, GDB...

the darkly colored top of the stem.

You're right, it looks like she was fixin' to "damp off" anyway...
That might be why her head fell off so easily...

Uh, might have had a little to do with it but I helped a lot!

A little fresh worm castings in some rain water splashed across the top of the seed bed can ward off damping off disease which is a fungus as I understand it. There's actual professors of soil biology or something that have studied it and it turns out it's actually "a thing."

I usually soak my seeds in it for a day or two waiting for them to show some leg. Once they do, I plant the seed and water it in with that same worm castings water. Works great.

Hello growers.

I got a new addition to the group yesterday. The second Royal Queen Bubblegum seed I planted broke the soil. She came up with an easily removable helmet.

Here she is alongside her 5th day tentmates.

The RG Bubblegum twin is definitely favoring one side over the other.

There hasn't been a peep from the 2nd WSE Bubblegum I buried.

And that's all I have for today.

Have a wonderful Sunday on purpose.

Peace.

Nice!

Congrats on the babies! Beauties, no doubt!

RQ Bubblegum!

She came up with an easily removable helmet

You gotta love that!

Congrats on the birth!

with an easily removable helmet.

I think that's listed as one of the advantages of this variety.

Hello growers.

The Bubblegum Grow is on Day 8 (mostly) and is will now be limited to 4 plants. The second WSE Bgum I buried has not come up after 6 days in the soil and I don't think she will.

I'll just go with what I have. Two Royal Queen Bubblegums, one Kera Bubblegum and a Black Cherry Pie from Herbies.

Que sera sera.

Thanks for looking in.

Peace.

They look good. If the twin is favoring one side, are you going to get rid of the smaller twin?

 

[InTheShed]

Que sera sera.

I love it when you quote Doris Day!

 

[Grand Daddy Black]

I love it when you quote yourself!

Thanks Budman.

I had said that I wouldn't disturb them, but now I'm thinking it is a possibility. I'm just gonna' sit back and watch for a while and see what "shey" does. If the little side is clearly going to get bullied out of existence then I might try to separate them when I up-pot.

Did you know that the song, Que Sera Sera was first introduced in the 1956 Alfred Hitchcock movie, The Man Who Knew Too Much? It was also the only movie that Hitchcock remade as he didn't like the original one he made 20 years earlier.

Clear cup of soil sitting inside a red plastic cup.
Brilliant!

That really helps you learn how to water and how the roots grow because you can see what they look like without disturbing the plant. And the outer cup shades the roots since they don't like light. Highly recommended!

Congrats on the all the babies!

Hello growers.

It Day 10 for the Bubblegum Machine.

The babies are starting to grow just a little but they're still my usual slow starters. They've been temporarily joined by a cut that I took from a Grape Ape that I've got going in another grow.

From left to right: Royal Queen Bgum II, Kera Bgum, Black Cherry Pie and RQ Bgum (the twin).

As for the twin, one side seems to be taking all the energy!

Thanks for looking in.

Peace.
