Homer's Legal 4-Plant Max Perpetual Minimalist Garden In Ontario

There's nothing to forgive. You are facing a difficult situation with grace and dignity. Forgive yourself whenever you fall short of your personal standards.

I wish you success in your treatments. Drop by every now and then to let us know you're still with us. We're all rooting for you!
 
What MrSauga said, word for word!
 
Merry Christmas, and may you and yours enjoy a healthy, happy, and prosperous New Year.
 
Thank you all so much for your well wishes and support and seasons greetings. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays and New Years to you guys too; Sauga, Pennywise, Old Salt, Shed, Baron Von and everyone else who happens by my journal.

All in all, I guess things are going as good as can be expected with my radiation treatments. I have another month to go with them and then I should be posting again more. My radiation oncologist Dr. is a real sweetheart which I am grateful for and yes she is a woman, LOL.

I harvested my Sensi Seeds NL that I was worried about yellowing leaves with but despite that concern I ended up getting a whopping 10 ounce plus harvest which is my record so far.

My two clones that I took from the 10 ounce harvested plant have been flowering for about a week and since they are identical I am doing a test where one just gets Mega Crop but the other one gets Mega Crop +1 mL of Cal mag for every gram of Mega Crop.

And I am pleased to announce that I do have a successfully growing P-98 from Katsu Bluebird happily growing. I love that it is such a squat Indica plant. It seems very vigorous also compared to the 20 to 1 CBD from Dr. Seeds in the next photo I started the same day. I really don't like how long and lanky that one is. Indoors I find the Indica structure much better suited for headroom.

My reversal was very successful in that I ended up with a whole bag of male pods but the only problem is there doesn't seem to be one speck of pollen, LOL. If I do it right the next time hopefully it should work out.

I took a time-lapse video of my P98 breaking ground if anybody would like to see it and in fact, I still have the camera watching it grow in time-lapse.

To keep myself occupied I am making a video on how I oiled my fan and I should have that up within the next week. I know it sounds like a pretty exciting topic so I don't want to get everyone's expectations too high, LOL.

Anyway, again I appreciate all the support and I'm doing okay but for now I just have to mostly concentrate on my health and my radiation side effects but I shall be back soon more regularly.
 
Great update Homer! Glad to hear you're in good spirits with the radiation they're hitting you with, and that harvest looks stellar Clones too. :welldone: all around.

Great time lapse video, and I would watch one where you grease your fan! I bought some red grease at an auto parts store for one of my Holmes Blizzards but I never managed to get the damn thing back together correctly :oops:.
 
That P98 will be a good one to keep around. Will make excellent trading stock to get other clones.

Thanks a lot Shed, I appreciate all the comments. I kind of blew the exposure in my time-lapse vid so now I hook it up to the big TV to check it first.

I have used motor oil and grease and they all seem to leave a film so I did some reading and apparently this doesn't have the detergent additives that leave any film so I am trying it on my fans. And yes assembly is generally more challenging than disassembly, LOL.

I definitely want to keep it around and I will be cloning it but I seem to be having some crazy allergic reaction where I'm getting pinkeye and my eyes are incredibly itchy so I am afraid to get pollen in the house. I suspect it might be from my unsuccessful pollen attempt that maybe a few got loose? Not sure what I will do but I will definitely be cloning it and keeping it going.

Nice to hear from you Homer and I'm glad the treatments are going as good as can be expected. Nice job with the time lapse. Take care, rest easy and we'll see you as soon as you are ready!

Sorry I didn't see your message right away Sauga. Nice to hear from you too and appreciate the kind words.

I am afraid this will set your hair on fire but it struck me the other day that I spend a lot of time disassembling and maintaining my fans and that they do take a fair bit of wattage like at least 50W on low. And having a minimalist garden I am trying to get rid of everything that isn't necessary so I thought I would give it a try to not use any fans so I shut them off about a week ago.

No problem Homer... the mrs tunes me out too! :cheesygrinsmiley:

Well I'm sure that's to her loss, LOL. In my defence though I wasn't tuning you out I just didn't know you were there.
 
Pennywise said:
Can’t wait to hear what kind of terps you get from the P98
Click to expand...
Me too for sure. I am really looking forward to what it becomes. So far it is about the most, if not the most vibrant seed I have had. And I love how squat it is, so far a winner.

My hair's good as long as your plants are happy :)

Glad to hear it! I am keeping a good eye on them looking for issues from not using a fan. It is pretty dry this time of year in my garden so I don't think I have to worry about bud rot. I also hear it makes them stronger and helps them breath better but so many things like your pH revelations fly in the face of convention and I figure it is about 1/3 my plant power consumption so if I don't need it that is a big saving. Not to mention the damn noise.
