The Perpetual Healing Garden - SweetSue's Joyful Return

[ShiggityFlip]

Lol I've tasted pretty much everything about a plant including runoff(not recommended). Taste and smell can be powerful tools.

Which got me to thinking of Graytails awesome description of the plants making noise as they grew. I have spent hours watching them and you can see them growing as well as hear them. A leaf under tension under another leaf that suddenly springs upward as the stem finally stretches enough to let it free. If you sit there a few hours you will be amazed by the amount everything changes, by how much movement there actually is with no fans on. It's weird because it's so much length in time of just stillness and then suddenly it happens. It's like watching a meteor shower.

Interesting, because what my plant oozes is full of terpenes. The taste and smell are an exact match to the smell and taste of the buds. Yes, I have tasted.

these were in veg though... now i am going to get caught licking plants in flower.

I am to full to respond yet Sue, God Bless you ... and I'm high on 1 hit each on three sweet Saturday night strains!

You are likely getting some resin heads and terpenes smeared on your taste buds! I've been licking my leaves, and eating them for a long time.

Come on folks, admit it, we have all licked worse things! Sorry, that is what hitting 2 indicas and a sativa chaser can do to me... 3x crap talking.

I've been toggling between the vape pen and some sweet wax and the water pipe with Jack Herer. I can't believe I can still type.

Go figure ... 420 members getting toasted on a Saturday night.

I started with Rio and bubble, then dug out some Y Griega and had a few of those, and now I'm back to Rio alone for awhile ...

... might have to have some of that aged Jamaican Dream that still has the wonderful berry taste, but that's pretty stoney, so maybe a bud of golden cured SLH, the reveg one I think ... yeah, that's the ticket ...



Oh, and I was thinking that the taste was from the surface trichs on the leaves, too - one type doesn't rise up from the surface, so you don't see them.

This is called virtual "hanging out together"

I've tasted many parts.of our plants, and I would taste the happy tears if we ever have them. Lol!

We certainly have more options than the common citizenry, don't we? Lol!

I hadn't considered the pick up of trichomes from the leaves, but that makes perfect sense.

One of those things we do best around here.

I'm sure you'll get your opportunity. It took a while for me to see it because I've been somewhat distracted by life over the past two years.

Garden note here. I found two mites working a leaf on the Med GOM around 1 AM last night. Spotted the lines they leave on the leaf. Popped the leaf off, examined it under a scope and flushed those suckers right down the drain! Then I tossed the leaf into the freezer. Waste not, want not. I gave the plant a serious once over and will repeat the SNS 209 drench and probably spray with the 50/50 ISO as well at some point today. I found no signs of any more, but that doesn't give me any confidence that they're eradicated, just that there aren't any crawling.

Evil-looking little earthlings, aren't they? They're just trying to survive like me. It's my job to make my soil and my plants healthy enough that they resist infestation. I'm starting a neem tea right now to apply tomorrow.

 

[ShiggityFlip]

Get Em Sue! Let them know there are no free rides at Sue's place. Tell them there are nicer plants down a few floors and out the front door!

 

[shaggydreams]

I just stopped by to catchup on your amazing progress having amped up using my little 502 vape pen loaded with co2 Jack Herer easing down from a Cactus wax ramp and wait, am I still typing? Deja-vu? Glitch in the Matrix? Never-mind, thanks for the tears clue, I will forevermore see SweetSue's tears of joy in my grow from now on.

That sounds so much like my reality shaggy dreams. Lol! I'm so glad you're having a pleasant buzz. I've been toasted all day on wax of unknown origin but oh so sweet. That's on top of my regular 5:1 BioBomb capsules. It's a good life if you can swing it. It's how I keep going. The sativas fuel me. Haha!

Have a great day shaggydreams.

What lovely shades of blues and purples highlighting the march of the trichomes. Thanks for sharing photos. You have a great day yourself.

Good evening Mr Am4zing. Yes I am. Lol! You??? Here, let me help you with that process.

Daily Update: Sunday, August 7, 2016

Good evening everyone. Seems like a good time to get the update posted. The only action they saw today was a light watering of the hempy pot and the start of the neem/kelp tea that'll bubble until tomorrow morning. I'll be checking the Med GOM regularly for any more signs of mites. I have to assume there're eggs in there somewhere. I'd be foolish not to, so I'll be giving the whole plant a thorough spray with the 50/50 ISO.

Starting off in the auto tent.

Industrial Plant (Day 20) Look!!! She's starting to stand up!!!

Her color's improving too. Whew! I wasn't prepared to kill two in a row on this public stage.

Dark Devil Auto (Day 48) She's determined to be a budcicle, so let her be a nice, fat one. She certainly is beautiful enough.

In the Kit tent, the Carnivals are on Day 12.

#2 is the top specimen, #1 is on the bottom of this picture. Interesting how different they look, isn't it? #2 has just a little more punch to the leaf definition.

Working on the 4th nodes. #1 is on the right.

I left the flap open for a while to get some of the heat out. I completely forgot to pick up another small fan for floor-level intake. That's helping the other tent hold reasonably well, and this tent doesn't have the big light on yet.

It worked. Tomorrow I'll get a fan and fix the problem.

Med GOM 1.0 (Day 50) What can I say? Such understated beauty. The structure's worked out better than I imagined, and I got the canopy under control and super low to keep from having to mess with the light. It looks like I might be capable of learning to keep the closet babes low and full.

Yeah, I'm real happy with how this one's going. Watching arteekay has helped tremendously. It's becoming instinctive to manipulate her. I could get used to this. It really wasn't much work to get her to this point and I've probably tripled the potential yield

The inner colas rising to the occassion.

One last look into the beauty that is the Dark Devil Auto. I'm really hoping to be able to make this one into oil. Keep beefing up baby.

Well, that's my brood for today. I got out to the labyrinth today and got a nice sunburn from being out there too long. A consequence of being fair-skinned and less than careful about protecting myself from the intense sun of the late morning. I ran into Bigwhite1970 while I was out there and we had a chance to sit under the tree and catch up. That gave a sweet sparkle to the day. On the way home I actually spent money on some basic things that will make the apartment more of my own space - new curtains for the bedroom and a new bath towel so soft that when I picked it up I couldn't put it down. Lol! Bit by bit it's coming together. This rediscovering yourself after 35 years of a good marriage is scary shit. Don't let anybody fool you into thinking otherwise. It pleases me though, to watch the place evolve. It's more open and airy, just the way I like it.

Thanks for stopping to visit. Now, get out there and spread the joy.

I'll be seeing you around the yards.

Sue,

I am attempting to compose a coherent and thorough assessment of NF1 and its physical implications on his health. Of course, after almost 30 years of tests, trials and treatments, I believe I know more about NF than any website can impart. I legally emancipated his medical choices when he was 15, right or not, I felt he knew more about his life and condition than anyone and was mature enough to make his own choices about medical hell treatments. He chose to participate in two clinical trials as a teen, more to possibly help other babies with NF1 than himself, including a Thalidomide regiment. He didn’t want other kids to have to live through his pain, a really mature outlook for a 15 year old.

I should have it finished in a day or two, but know that NF1 is a complex and untreatable condition. His quality of life is really what I hope to improve; I never thought we would have him this long. I will also try to delineate my goal in this endeavor; I’m realistic in knowing his condition is forever. Thank you Sue, you are an incredible person. I hope to reciprocate.

Hugs

Keith

"Budcicle" ,that is funny!

I have three "budcicles" in flower right now, they all smell awesome for being so vertically challenged. I just love playing with genetics and seeing how extreme of a phenotype I can whoop up, Ruderalis really helps with the fun. Nothing like a big thick thirsty new towel huh? My wife has the same attraction, we now have too many towels!

I try to limit myself to one new towel a year, and I also try to eliminate the old one or repurpose it. I'm working hard to eliminate all the extraneous stuff in my home and life, so selectivity is the watchword here.

The little Dark Devil Auto I grew the first time was an amazing buzz. Dale and I must have smoked a dozen joints of her when hospice brought him home for two nights before he went to the facility and died. That was so much fun. When the paramedics came to pick him up there was a cloud of smoke in the apartment. Lol!
