Our Ongoing Grows

Thanks, Toasted one... Hey just throwing my little 2 cent around like I like to do..... But is getting to be fall time... Some are able to grow outdoors, and to them,, is time to start thinking about buddage... Some plants can support the buddage,, but 90% have a tendency to fall over come the end of Sept. and by then it's a nightmare. Putting bandaids on your plants. Some netting is nice,, as are wire cages. But me being lazy as all hell,, or maybe Tead,,, JK but if you have a hearty plant that only has 6 or 7 main braches I love this 1/2 vinyl tape they sell as plant ties.That green shit they tie trees with. Cheap on the net. And it's soft unlike a wire. I find it comes in hella handy on buddage as well as tomatoes. Hell I use to rip old bed sheets to tie my tomatoes up with. Thread all over the place come harvest,, but this green shit is the shit. Branches won't kink and snap even under some tomatoes weight.... So here's a pic of out Cherry Tomato Plants with the spider network in place. Might work for some. A bamboo pole in the center and a network of ties hanging down tieing off the main branches..

Sure is pretty country their Sticky one. What kind of trails? I use to hit the 4X4 trails back when I had my Landcruiser. I did the Rubicon Trail alot. That's a harry ass trail. You know you're on a bad trail when you have to have a winch on the front and back of the truck just to be able to make a turn in some places. Little Sluice and Big Sluice are a bitch. Takes acouple hours to get thru them couple miles of the trail. You look at that trail and say WHAT TRAIL? Brings ya around the back side of Tahoe...
Welll Once more thanks everyone and Keepem Green

hey woody your autos are doing great they sure have improved on those the last few years there fun to grow you hardly have to do anything they just sit there and produce,we do the two legged trails lol i try to get a walk in everyday trying to stay alive we did go up to loon lake which is in the vicinity of where your talking about,we left around noon friday and there was a stream of vehicles coming up the hill for the weekend good time to leave anyway quite a few of them were rigs with trailers carrying there rock crawlers lol, :thumb:
 
i thought i would add that we drove up picket pin rd. for the first time just wanted to see where it went the odometer said we were 6 mi.up and i was looking out my driver window at that large granite dome rock we were to the south or se of it we drove to where i would scratch the crap out my truck and turned around it was pretty cool up there old logging area,we also took the road rite after the bridge at ice house store and came out at the picnic area of ice house lake found a back way in!
 
I was just reading on a page that had posts from 2011 Damn Norcal, you and Feral with these long ass journals!! :rofl:

I'm sure there's a ton of knowledge all up in these pages. I'll just follow along and chime in from time to time...

:popcorn:
 
They have them roads that can get ya anywhere in the state. Depending on your truck and like you said how many scratches you don't mind getting on it. Some of them roads get real sketchy. Back when I was prospecting I got one of them huge topo maps of the northern half of the state. And I marked every creek and river and mine shaft I explored and the results of sampling holes. I have been to 100's of places. Some of the best gold I've found was Up shirttail canyon and Yankee Jims off the north fork of the American River. But there are so many beautiful places with 50 miles of your house.
Agemon welcome and feel free to chime in anytime. But I have pages that date back to 2008. I know this one is long winded but I rehash my ways here and there,, so it's about as easy to jump in at the end as the beginning. I'm planing on just keeping this one for along ass time.. And if something doesn't make sense, throw a rock at me. I will and do answer all questions. And I acknowledge everyone as a group to keep it a tad shorter.
Well thanks everyone for looking in and Keepem Green
 
I just came back from my weekend trip. Garden looks great :thumb:

Ya I realized quickly once I got to liking everyone that I wouldn't be able to catch up on them all from scratch.

Made it 3/4 through one, about to give uo and realized the last quarter started after I subscribed :)

Still was a heck of a great read and learned a ton as usual.

I pop in on the folks as I can and do a lot of searching and reading.
 
BTW I forgot to welcome ya there Phenoman. Pop in anytime and feel free to throw your 2 cent around whenever ya wish'
Thanks peoples and,

Damn f'ing doctors. I hate doctors offices and hospitals. I had to see that Ears, nose, and throat guy that did that robotic shit. They are just doing a 6 month check up. But they put that damn scope shit down my nose to look around abit.. Man they got hella optics on them things. I was looking for all the holes I must have fried in there over the years. Like I've said before,, I did everything there is to do, cept this new X shit, and every way there is to do it. And I did alot of whatever I was doing. But wasn't no holes fried thru. Now he wants me to go back and do another Peta Scan. You know it's some nasty shit in that syringe when it is incased in afew inch of lead. Then the Cat Scan after. Lets seen if they can find it this time..........

I hope this gets worked out Norcal.
Same here been 10 years but I had a good 20 year run of everything under the sun and too much.

It was actually AA that got me off of all of that crap. Had a lot of inner stuff to deal with.

I'm not cured... stuff comes back, still do the things that helped me, but I have moments in which I can be a 2 year old... just read my journal lol. :)

I have a gut thing worrying me. Lost 55 pounds this year and since insurance done end of last month I have put off looking into it.

Because of that, I'm glad that even with the crap you are going through, the hoops, that you are getting it done. Much as I hate Dr's and the whole medical system, sometimes its what it takes.
 
I still have been known to do alittle over indulges. And if you hang around long enough,, you'll see. JK But I can get out there.. But I always feel if one feels they have a problem whatever works for them. I was raised in a heavy drinking family'. And me true to form. But whenever I've had to leave it alone, I've been lucky and was able to stop. I had to discharge acouple numbers, compliments of CDC, which meant if I peed 12 bottles clean, the 13th wood end your parole. Now I got into the heavier pain killers. I've either been under a doctors care,, or self-medicating since 86' Just about every day since. And the truth, it's easier to self-medicate, than jump thru all the hoops they have nowadays. A person who goes to see a doctor that really needs some help, can't get it. While I see some that haven't any real problems come home with a whole pharmacy. Makes it hard for the real chronic pain sufferers. I have to say I do have a decent doctor right now for my old ass aches and pains. It was funny,, the first year or so after I moved here to Oregon, here I got get my card right away,,, but I can' find a doctor that wood work with me while I was doing any illegal drugs..Yes marijuana is illegal. I use to be home trimming weed and get up and run to my appointment,, sitting waiting and see weed leafs stuck here and there. I know I stunk to all hell. But I'd pee clean,, took me awhile to find one, but that was that office's policies. But there are afew doctors willing to work with ya around here. It was alot harder when I had that internal pain pump full of morphine. But cool if you got afew demons under control. I do have an addictive personality myself,, and drinking wood be a hard one to deal with. Hell, the doctor I have now doesn't allow drinking. And these new tests can tell if you been drinking 5 days after you drink. I guess they don't look for alcohol but the enzymes that eat the alcohol. But I'm babbling;

acouple fast pic's. I'm really liking these auto,, damn I broke a main branch off one today taking them outta the greenhouse after the little rain we just got but here's afew;

I'm impressed with these.. Repeat. And I'm going to have afew of these new year for sure.

bb170.jpg

Well I'm going to have me a nightcap and hope all's gardens are doing great out there..

As for my problems one thing I always say and it is what it is. Don't trip,, all you'll do is skin your knees. But I kind of have to wonder if it's a good thing if they find primary cancer this time,,, or keep it hanging over my had for another 6 months? I had all them nodes cut out and only one outta 35 and any bad shit. Don't ask me what it all means, it's coined as 'Ghost Cancer'.
And Miss J's seems to be doing ok after her last surgery. She's doing the reconstructive part her problem after afew hic ups along the way. Man that was a trip,, we both got these shit diagnosed. And I know I've fallen behind on my journals. Slowly I'm catching up..

Well water the plants, me and I'm outta here till my next smoke break.. I do lie,, hell I never sleep at night,, especially come mid to end of Sept. The last week of Sept I set the old 12 gauge up with rock salt. And I think I need fresh salt and pepper oil shot put together. JK Not it's my own blend, just glad I've not had to use it lately. I peppered some kids poaching down at the bottoms once. I actually met them 3-4 years later at a family reuion,, they said thay shit burnt for almost 2 weeks after.. Oh well I'm babbling'

Thanks Norcaliwood, much appreciated!

Such a great community here.

When I decided to grow, I was amazed at the cannabis community in general and after some searching just fell in with the 420magazine.com crowd.

So many good things happening here.

Hope you are feeling well today and that your garden is green!
 
Hello NCW. All this talk about docs/health and Im glad I got hemp mites :)
Yes Ive got hemp mites, little maggot looking things. A few plants are worse than others. In fact I chopped and garbage canned the worst two. I sprayed the yard grow and the newly started 3rd tent run. Probably not to many mites in the tent but outside some plants are kinda coverd. I sprayed green cleaner 1oz per gal. Ive got written down your specs at .5 per 1/2 gal? I dosed them good last night and I see many dead ones today but still some crawling. My plan is to Green Clean them every 3 days for 2 weeks, yard and tent grow.

Do I reduce to your specs of .5 per 1/2 gal and green clean spray them every 3rd day for 2 weeks?
Should I spray them with some of the Rosemary oil I already have also?
Why are some infested bad and others not?
I b

Now NCW thats my plan I should would like your 2cents. Them little maggots are all over and can see why theyre so hated. I think theyre fucking up my flowering process in the yard grow and we cant have that my brother. Ive got two more that are infested bad and should I chop and trash can those also??? I hope I got them in time!! Oh...... Im almost out of green cleaner so I guess go buy some more huh? dont buy something else, and I should get a big bottle cause the mites dont get immune to green cleaner?
With the few grows I have had Ive experienced spider mites, wpm, bud rot and hemp mites. Im gettn to be an expert.

1000 questions all over Wood my man I hope you its not too confusing. Thanks so much Wood!!

Hey Toasted that SHY's as good as anything Ive grown. Its really good. Your perceptions are correct.
Thanks 420 and great day!!!!
 
Did you get clones? From what I hear them hemp mites are heavy down in Cali. And alot of these people that mass produce clones have them and don't even know it. The plants that first had them are the heaviest infested. I'm pretty sure the max dose is 2 oz's pr gallon. I'd spray tonight with about 1 1/2 pzs per gallon, and every third day respray with 1 oz per gallon. Soak them suckers.. Yea they will slow your flowering down. All the new leafs will have tips chewed off. GL and I'll update in abit

Thanks NCW. you know the last 48 hrs awake ive been researching and checking leafs. Ive G.cleaned two days in a row. I rosemary sprayed the two most heavly infested and some are still crawling this morning. I also saw some clear flea/tick looking things crawling under the scope too, maybe a spider mite? Ive got some questions written down for the grow shop today when I go get the green cleaner.
Hey bro you know I can babble so I leave it with this... I bought clones a week ago and none in the tent. Theyre all outside. So they dident come from Dark Heart or the store Im guessing. Ive had them awhile Im guessing. And Im going to conquer this bitch. Fuck I spray them and i still see them crawling the next day. If I had them last year I dident notice and this year theres no not noticing.
Hey Toasted, maybe I see why they budwash if its done properly. These mites are nasty. Strait fucking evil looking and look like they stick around pretty good after death, so Im sure many get smoked!!
Thanks Wood. Im on the road to be a master grower!!! Great Day.
 
Those Hemp Mites are truly scary. We all look for the standard 2 spotted mites damage and can identify it easily. But by the time you see a problem,,,, you got a problem. And it's not just 1 or 2.. They breed faster than spidermites. You said you seen another critter. Look up Broad Mites. I liked that Green Cleaner. But the shit's pretty costy. an average cost of 7.50 a gallon. Hell, it's atad over 5 dollars an oz. And when you got alot of plant it sure makes it hard to treat. Whenever someone get a clone,, they should alway keep it separate for a spell. As long as they are healthy well-rooted cuts you can treat them. Hell small clones can be dipped, in your miticide or fungicide getting 100% coverage. I got my infestation from clones I bought up the hill. And they spread to plants that were 10 foot tall and full of leaf. I use an atomizer to spray with. It does a great. A fogger on steroids.
