I lived awhile in Chitown southside. Some many big Museums there.. You have to go to Science and Industry... Hell, they even have a WW2 submarine there.. And the Shed Aquarium. Then you have to go see the skyline from UP HIGH while HIGH.......... John Handcock or the Sears Towers. The Chicago River is one of the few rivers that travels north instead off dumping water on your home down south. It looks cool when they dump that green dye in the river for Saint Paddies Day. Right across the street at Soldiers Field, named after WW1 is a nice pizza joint called Giovanni's? To me was the BEST pizza in the city. Yea,,, deep dish is totally different than what one thinks when they think pizza.. I'll have a deep dish from Dominos Pizza? Yea right... But if ya'll have time and a extra buck or two,, look up a dinner cruise on the lake at night.. Enjoy and Keepem Green

UD is an elite level smoke if grown and dried right, no doubt in my mind about it. F2 is highly variable though, which means a lot of different genotypes pop from these seeds.
Chem pheno is actually the weirdest tasting one, smell doesn't really translate that well into taste. Most of the time is on the sourish and chemical side with blackberry and toasted chestnuts aftertaste, but I got more piney/lavender one when I sun depped it. It is often fruity in flowering (thing mango, which means myrcene) and it might even end up smelling like lavender honey, but there's only a touch of sweetness on the tongue and this means it tastes right!
There's a stronger Boom pheno, which is much more lemoney and pissy with strong, soaring effect and OG pheno with best taste among them probably.

Morning Tead , Just thinking this morning of all the folks in Texas and LA. For your sake and my dear sister's I pray this storm leaves Red Stick and Big Easy with small amounts of water.
FYI i did get my UD up and running, however I didn't set it in a large pot............... do you think if I try to up pot her it will upset her? I'll try get get my journal and some pic's up very soon.
And if you don't mind me asking for all that read Tead's journal, please keep all those affected by Harvey in your thoughts and prayers. Thousands of folks like you and I are about to have their life upside down for a while. Having gone in behind these storms and worked, I see so many sad, distraught people grasping to get some kind of stable life back....
Having just returned from eight months in Red Stick helping out after the big flood, my sweet wife ask me " are to headed to Texas " ? I really don't want to abandon my garden again, so at this point it remains to be seen.
Rooster 1 out and running a few gardens,
to all.....

I did thank TOAST.
I have a few more seeds to experiment with. I'll keep searching.

Back in the saddle baby!
Did all the tourist stuff. Dove into the deep dish vs thin crust debate by sampling all I could find.
I think I might stay with the NY style, but Giordano's was the best pie I found. Lou Malnati's tasted like the made the crust with Bisquick.
Man... that Field Museum wore us out and we didn't begin to see it all.
The first seed I popped turned out to be the Boom pheno. It's a mighty strong version of the UDs... so strong you'll know it when you find it.
Bumpy flight home. Got hit by lightning on the flight back into town. I happened to be staring out the window at the wing right when it happened out at the wingtip. So cool. Never seen that before.
Locally, we're just seeing some rain. Nothing spectacular or even noteworthy. Looks like it's coming in again over Lake Charles this morning with some outer bands being shed and the inner bands still west of us. We may see some wind and rain today, but nothing to park your car on the neutral ground for.
All in all, this would appear to be a non-event for us... which is good since we still have a few pumps that are offline.
I've been watching the dances down in Houston. They sure bring back some crappy memories. The folks down in Houston have a long, long road in front of them.
Tead has some really complicated personal feelings about these things. The results of Fed involvement in these affairs is not as predictable as one might think. Tossing dollars blindly can really cause some negative results, but it sure is hard to imagine such things when you're ass deep in the soup. Complicated.

Backstroke? I hear even Arkansas got hammered today... Hope it went around ya. It's just something one has to deal with to live on the Gulf. I spent alittle time down in Fla around the Keys. Storms always brewing somewhere down in the Gulf. Stay dry

It danced past us this time with few issues. Some of my neighbors lost power... but it was wires in a tree and not on my local loop, so I didn't even see a blink of the lights. It did trigger the transformer to explode.... kinda like a little lightning bolt.
Tead's already got his eye on the next trouble spots.
Sure nice to be home again. One worries when storms are afoot and you're not near your garden. There were no problems at all while I was away. So happy. A small Northern Lights clone got hit by a caterpillar. I saw the moth before I left town but never caught it.
New rule in Tead's world.... see a moth, kill a moth... no excuses.
Storms afoot this morning to complicate Tead's travels. Gotta get a watering done. Clones need to go into pots.
Busy busy.

Welcome back. I'm relieved to hear the home and garden fared well this time.

Hope all is well in your world brother! Sucks about the moth guess he took advantage of your absense lol.
Call me Cassandra !
"We've survived storms before we'll survive them again" isn't going to cut it this go around.
In 30 years, the Florida keys and most of south Florida will be perpetually underwater.
Same for the area around New Orleans.
South Florida, New Orleans, Boston, and probably Houston will be uninhabitable.
This isn't "California is going to fall into the ocean" nonsense, this is the best climate scientists in the world.
New Orleans whodis and yats are welcome to come up river to my town, the rest of them can find someplace else to live.
Beware the twenty first century, coastal flooding is coming. Coming slow like most floods do. But it's big
I always wondered this Rad,, the earth go thru cycles of ice ages and hot ages. Right now we are on that warming trend the earth goes thru every once in awhile warming and melting the caps, before we become snowball earth again. Meaning the ice sheets will come all the way down to the equator covering the earth with ice. Of course, humans will be dead by then. I do understand man made greenhouse gases are helping speed the melting of the polar caps and that is a problem, and I think humans will figure that one out,, least to slow the process. But in this cycle, both the poles and the ice sheets melt off. If it wasn't for CO2 in the form of greenhouse gases, from volcanos more than likely, we might still be in an ice age. But I don't doubt the extra gases caused by humans is speeding up the enveitable. But even without humans,, we're going to end up under water. All we can do is put a bandaid on it by stop adding to it.. And hope we are a smart enough to find a way to survive as a species. Of course Fla will be the first hit. Hell, the highest point in all of Fla is only what 345 foot above sea level. Hell in the Keys is only 18 foot. I do see the seawalls they are building around the places in Miami. House are flooding before they are even finished building them...... I think Cali is safe for awhile.. Unless we get that BIG earthquake.. That might be faster. Interesting times.. Geography might change a tad by out great-grandkids days... Fla, will shrink to a 1/3 of it's size. But hey think about this,, if ones smart,,, right before the next ice age starts and begins locking up water in ice,, buy up that swamp land in Fla,, it will dry out sometime....... Keepem Greem

Photos from the garden....
The bloom room... getting full again.
Some UD clones.... they got moved to their perm homes. These are shots from the 2" cloning tube.
And some OGK clones that also got moved
The wheels turn.

I had my first successful cutting root in a solo hempie. 
I owe this wonder to you, my friend.

Little bastards!
Rare to see one in the garden.
Sure nice to see you round again.... and nice to see your UFO launch again. Been upsizing from the 2Ls to 6Ls... tho still keeping the tall/thin form.
I get a good bit of stretch from the Crit+2.0's. Not quite twice the size... more in the 1.5x size range. The KaliAK's stretch a bit less, but are still probably in the 1.5x range-ish.

We all stand upon the shoulders of the souls that walked the paths before us.
The view from up here is pretty nice... ehh?
The little perlite clones have been super easy in my world. I did some dances early on trying to do it a variety of different ways, but the little hempy cloners has been the solid performer in my world. Cut 'em, bag 'em, water 'em, wait 2 weeks.
The set of clones pictured above sat for 15 days.... shoulda got them a few days earlier as the roots were just starting to get crossed. Of course, I could just put 1 clone in a tube rather than doing 2ea. Meh.

Morning Tead, Got my UD up and running. She is looking good and growing now that she has sunk her roots in and grabbed a hold. I also got one of the DDA up and running, thanks again....... Ole Rooster out and about this AM

We've seen and been told of the signs of these changes since the '60s. We've done many different dances to ignore it since that time. Currently we're busy trying to simply deny it.
Every single day, the cost to humanity to correct it becomes more severe... and perhaps beyond our reach. We're well past the time when human habit changes could have corrected the issues.
None of these ideas are new. I became aware of them at a very young age. As such, Tead conducts his world accordingly.
For example, I don't invest in 'buy and hold' houses here in NOLA. I can only imagine that houses in a swamp changing to ocean will drop in value as the city slowly vanishes. Doing long term investments in a disappearing city would seem unwise. The oil industry has already pulled out of NOLA and the city has very few positives to offer businesses other than the tourist industry.
Side note... how long will they be able to keep the French Quarter alive as a tourist attraction? It is high ground after all.
And one comment about the changes experienced during the normal warm/cold geo-cycle....
Yes, it's very true, our world does the flip flop thing on a regular basis and goes thru an ice age normally. These normal cycle changes happen over thousands of years... not a generation or two. The current changes we now all see easily are quite unusual and well beyond the normal geo-cycles.... like several orders of magnitude beyond.
We're bringing on the climate changes. There can be no doubt. As we pour carbon directly into the atmosphere and sea, we see the results. Much like pressing the gas pedal in your car.
One real question... how long will Tead personally be able to hang on?

Busy busy as the wheels get some grease...
Some UD's cut from a mother I just bent up some this morning. Off to the veg tent for them where they get watered every 3 days for 2 weeks.
A UD that got the spike bend treatment this morning in preparation for a move to bloom.
