Wanted to take a few minutes and share a few thoughts on the new year. 2018 was a big year for us.... From battling the workers comp company, to dealing with the back, to buying a house. I want to take a chance to say thank you to all of you that have accompanied us on this wild ride. I know you all have a choice of where you go in your spare time and for you all to take a bit of time out of your busy day to drop in over here means a lot. The plants are great but its relationships we have made that make this place special to us.
I know things move quickly here at times and can be tough to keep up. We are toying with closing this journal down since 2018 is over, and starting a new perpetual for 2019. We are also talking about kicking it off with a new strain drop and we are trying to decide what to grow to kick off the year. I am trying to pick 4 or 5 Indicas, Sativas, and hybrids and narrow it down from there. We want to stick to more of the older strains (not necessarily landraces....but at least older and stable strains) but I am fighting the urge to pop some of Annunaki's Sour Pineapple (tested at 7% terps) that we picked up at the Harvest Cup.
We haven't been introducing much new in the way of strains into the garden as we went through the house buying process and we are hoping to get back to a more regular schedule. We are hoping to pop a new strain about every 3-4 weeks as we clear out the backlog in our tents.
We are also getting ready to ramp up the seed making. We have several strains that we are going to start off with making fems (S1s), starting with the African Meltdown, the Black Cherry Punch, the Tangie Ghost Train, the Hindu Kush, and the Northern Lights. If any of the 3 DTF or 2 Stankberry girls show promise, I will make some of them as well.
We also hope to continue working on a few new crosses as well. So much to do......good thing this is so much fun (except trimming and harvesting seeds)!! Here's to hoping that your 2019 will be as exciting as ours will be! Happy New Year!!

Onward and upward,
