This Year's Outdoor 2012 Garden Diary - By JTG & My Wife

[JamesTheGreen]

Here are some pictures I took last AM, or thus AM, whichever you want to call it!!! The first shots are of the Romulan, in the vase, and the Bouquets(YARROWS IDEA NOT MINE), the rest are of the Heirlooms, Highlands, Orange Krushes, Hog X Orange Krush, Mazari Shareefs and I belive that is it. I hope You all enjoy them, they were shot in the wee Hours of this Morning, around 4:30 to 6:30 AM. As I was on my Patrol, it is Hard to take pictures when you are holding an M-4, a camera and LED Defender Flashlight, therefore i made yarrow come Help, thankfully she did not KICK MY ASS, and was in a surprisingly good mood. I also had to tie up some branches that broke, due to the change in wind direction, and the overall weight of the BUDS, GOD, THEY are getting so heavy, and I have been flushing them now for at least a good two weeks, the smell is out of THIS WORLD!!! I wish all of YOU could be here in the early Morning, which is when they are the most AROMATIC, smells like HEAVEN!!! So here come the pictures, enjoy!!! I took more than 50, so they will be split up, I hope I do it right this time!!! First the Bouquets!!! The other pictures that I took in the Dark, were an attempt to show everyone how the Leaves have turned from GREEN, to Lavender, Gold, Purple, Cherry Punch, and some I cannot even ID the Colors, Just Beautiful, is all I can say!!! So here they COME, NASTY, DIRTY, SEXY, SCANDALOUS, after Dark...BUD PORN!!! These are for ADULTS ONLY!!! I cannot/will not be held responsible for any one under age viewing these DIRTY PICTURES, View at Your Own Discretion!!! And no underage viewing PLEASE!!!LOL!!!Oh Yeah, I also showed my bins full of BUDS, I never weigh my product, at the beginning anyways, so go ahead and give me a guess, if you care too, and let me know what YOU think the weight is!!!

[JamesTheGreen]

Ok here are the rest, I hope I did not do an overkill, and bore you all to DEATH, oh well if I did, SORRY, I was just so excited to share, and had not posted in such a long time, I think/hope you will indulge, and forgive ME!!! Well here are the rest!!!

And that is it for this Days Bud Porn, any Questions or comments, please feel free to ask, and or give your valuable opinions, PS, do not forget to guess at what you think I have brought in so Far!!! So far I have brought in only 11 plants, so let me hear your GUESSES!!! Take Care. SINCERELY, JAMESTHEGREEN.

 

[Lester Freeman]

ROFL, depending on how deep I think that bin is, thats gotttt to be 3-4 pounds...............

 

[Greenhouse250]

James, i kinda like the guessing game.. tell me what % of your entire crop has been harvested. Also has it been a good year compared to the past? Then i can give you my guess...

 

[Lester Freeman]

Oh didn't see the other two bins, make that 10 pounds?

 

[CascadianDank]

I never saw the plants but I have a friend who said his brother got over a pound a plant from his outdoor every year so Im gonna have to guess you got 15lbs from 11 plants and from the last group of pics you posted before these it looks like you got a house full of hanging bud so I could be underestimating.

 

[Smokemupm8]

I guess that youll get 8.5 pounds, from whats in them pics dry.. How longs a piece of string??
Do we use the math that - 750,000 lumens from the sun @ 2g per lumen, 1,500,000 grams???

 

[JamesTheGreen]

Everthing in the Bins is Dry, everything that is hanging is wet/semi dry. I harvested 11 Plants all together so Far, and not all of it is dry yet, plus there are all the little POPCORN BUDS that are drying in SEED trays, This Year GH has been astounding, because of the Solar Flares and such, all the Buds are much much denser because of this, I am guessing, plus, KNOCK ON WOOD, I have not lost one single Bud to Mold, Mildew, or any other nasties. Truly an exceptional year!!! I usually average between 3-4 lbs per plant in the Shady Areas, depending on Strain, and location in garden, these were all taken from the side of the Garden that normally gets less light than the rest, hence it matured sooner, but still finished extremely dense, I say that I did not get less than 3 per plant, in the Shadiest part of the garden(LOVE THOSE SOLAR FLARES!!!) They really made a difference in the size density, weight and overall Shape of the Buds, I have been growing for 20, and have never seen buds that looked like these(GOD I HOPE THIS DOES NOT PORTEND DOOM FOR 12-21 2012)that would suck!!! Yarrow and I(SHHH) smoked some of the heirloom Kush last Night, and got totally ripped!!! We were supposed to wait for our helpers,and have a little mini(MIGHTY) smoke party, where we all got to smoke at the same time,but sorry, we just could not help ourselves, besides, it is our Herb anyways, was this selfish of us??? Because it sure did not feel like IT!!! We just had to try it, tonight were gonna try the Orange Krush(BAD OLD US!!!) The plants that are left, are at least twice the size and weight of what has been brought in, as they dominate the Full Light of the Garden!!! My Hog X Orange Krushes, the ones that are along the fence, that Yarrow is always DWARFED BY, when She stands next to, and I take pictures of her next to them, I believe will be at least 7-8 pound Plants. All the others that are left, I will say that they are probably at least between 5-7 pounds each, and I like to underestimate!!! A Great Year, no matter how you look at it!!! GH, Please give Me your best Guess, everyone else as well, I love to speculate!!! SINCERELY, JAMESTHEGREEN.

Sure not leaving part of it at My Brother in Laws House, LOL!!! Guess I am just gonna have to Destroy part of It!!! Thanks for the info Lee, I always wondered what that meant. SINCERELY, JAMESTHEGREEN.

My Early Flowering Buds Bunny Plant, using Her for making SEEDS FOR ME!

A Buds Bunny Bud Seeded with my Heirloom Kush or Orange Krush Male Pollen.

Example of how small my seeded Buds Bunny is. This is the humble beginning of this years 2012 Garden A lot of work has gone into it already. From mixing and amending the soil, I use Fox Farm Ocean Forest and Happy Frog to start sterile, then add various things from a unique amendment I discovered years ago. A Friend of mine makes it every year and sells it by the pound. We call it Super Fert, but that is just what us locals that can get it, call it. I use Max Sea 16-16-16 and Fox Farm GROW BIG. I rotate them, one time this one, the next time that one. I never do them twice in a row. I also use SWEET for carbohydrate pickup and CAL-MAG for further strengthening of my Branches, and my Stalks, every time I fertilize. I am hoping for a nice HOT SUNNY growing season, with average temperatures around 90-100 degrees. Watering is done on a whenever it is needed bases, as is the fertilizing. My soil is so potent, that I only have to feed now(Fertilize), at this stage, because I want to. I was told by an old grower, who had been doing this for over 40yrs, that the more Light, Space, Water and Food you give them, the more they will grow. I have found this maxim to be truer advice than almost any I have earned or been given! I am going to try and take Weekly or at least Bi-Weekly Photos of the Garden, so everyone can enjoy watching the Grow, and reading my Journal on it, at least I hope people will find enough interest in this thread to read and look at it. I would like to ask people that do follow the Thread to notice how rapidly my Work Shed disappears by the growing Cannabis. It got up into the low Hundreds in the Garden today, about 109 110 degrees Fahrenheit, hottest day so far this season. I have black shade cloth laid down neatly in my Garden. Since it is black and my 100gallon containers are aligned in rows on it, it soaks up the heat that is shining on it from the Sun, that is why my Garden gets so Hot! When you are off of the shade cloth, or out of the Garden, temperatures are a lot cooler, sometimes by as much as 20 degrees in the shade, with Lemonade and Ice. This is where I try, key word is TRY here, to entice my Wife to sit and talk with me whilst I work. I really Love it when She listens and does this, but because of her Health conditions She is sometimes to sick to do this, or She can be the exact opposite and will try to come into Her/Our Garden, and try to lend a hand because She feels guilty that I do most of the work. Especially if She is getting an unusual amount of relief from Her Meds that Day. Of course I never let Her do any physical labor, but She is an adult, and I am not Her Dad, so I can only do and say so much. I am pretty bummed out because I have a good sized gaggle of extra Females to deal with, I have tried to give them away, and I gave away quite a few. I feel kind of greedy asking people to pay for something I cannot use, that is why I would just rather give them away like I have been. It now looks like the ones I have left are gonna get chopped soon. They are so beautiful and healthy, I am loathe to do it, but I know I cannot keep putting off the inevitable(SIGH!!!). We have had great weather for the past 4 days or so, and from the looks of things, that is supposed to be the norm for awhile. I will try to keep as up to date as possible on my Thread, and post pictures regularly. I hope it is enjoyed by all! THANK YOU. SINCERELY, JAMESTHEGREEN.
