THsea Grows Indoors Soil

Oh, man, big grats there!! Thai Basil is the queen of all basil. Deep purple and hot on the basil smell. I absolutely love Thai basil. Love it so much, I actually had an entire row in my greenhouse dedicated to the stuff. mmm... love that spicy Thai...

Thanks! Yea, it is the best type of basil in my book... I'm gonna grow as many varieties as I can though. I think the space I'm getting in the back is at LEAST 6'x6'... So I can do some damage there :)

Actually, OMM and I have discussed when he does some Thai strains, I wana get a cutting and surround it (in the same soil bed) with Thai Basil... See if it leeches any of its flavor over to the cannabis :) They are both aromatic oil producing plants... And they even produce some of the same terpenes!

BTW... This is what some say Hawaiian strains are named through... Growing them by things, or in doctored soil to adapt flavor. This is semi-rumor however, I haven't gotten to meet many "local" growers... Supposedly this is how Banana Bud is done... I only have gotten to be around a fool who said this, and honestly I could see local guys making stuff up knowing he would believe it.. And there definitely are a few things hes been told like that!!! But it makes sense to me. I don't think thats 100% it, most of the flavor is probably selective breeding.

There is one thing that made me go "hm" for a long time though... Plumeria... The tree's that flower called that here have a poisonous sap. I can't imagine that being good to have around plants I intend to injest... But maybe just the flower pedal's in the mulch? Who knows! It doesn't matter much either... Even if I can imitate the amazing floral flavor, I'd need to imitate the pure island sativa...

Enough rambling! Thanks for stopping by everyone, we are really kicking up our work on the tent here at THsea's crib... The sooner we get done, the sooner we will have a picture update! I'll put up one of the Vintage tonight (if I don't goto sleep first)... But the rest will be waiting for the tent... The KC's are all 3 in a 3gallon smartpot, and will move to a 11 gallon airpot for flower... IF they get big enough to need it... Something tells me the KC's will be vegging forever LOL :thumb:
 
Hey Buddy. Believe it or not I got a new strain today that's only sold in dispensaries in central Cali. It's called "Fortune Cookie". My friend there sent me about sixteen seeds. Another one to check out! :high-five:

You might not like that one... Fortune Cookie get bad reviews out here. What you're really looking for is Girl Scout Cookies

Wow! When I looked them up...I couldn't tell the difference........you sure saved us some trouble...we can dump those seeds. My friend in Cali loved the strain. Oh! Well!:smokin2::smokin2:
 
Just stopping by to say Hi and howz it going?
Hope all is well with you THsea and that island paradise you call home :)

:peace: and can't wait for an update!
 
Hey MSquared:high-five:

Not been a paradise the last few days. Big time storm is hitting us. Many floods, rocks falling on roadways, wash outs. Lights out every once in a while. Even hail!

Rare stuff for us.....had to dig out a sweater.

But I still love it! :surf:

About three years ago...it rained for 46 straight days. :popcorn:

Sounds like a scene right out of the movies. Sorry to hear and I hope you both are doing well. :thumb:

Are thoughts are with you both. :circle-of-love:

Hang in there and :peace:

If you're going to be in a storm at sea, quickly find solid ground for your feet ;)

Thanks, Mr Gator. It stopped and turned around and is heading back to us.
It will fill all the reservoirs Hope there's someone left to drink it! :circle-of-love:
 
Hello all... Been busy here, not so much with the grow..

All the plants are looking good! ASH is the only one that looks a bit funky.. oh, and the strongest of the KC cuttings mysteriously died.. Blah. But i gotta new auto to pop... From Samsara seeds, shot adrenaline... I think thats the name. New seeds are fun :circle-of-love:
 
I have seedlings and cuttings from the same day, 3 weeks ago.
Pics will be up later, over at my show.
Seedlings are healthy and cute as kittens, but the cuttings are ready to go.

Flowers are the point of cannabis cultivation, IMO. What's up with that, my friend?

When I have my own place and can have as many little cuttings as I desire... Propra, this will go from a THpond to a real THsea. :) I'd like to hear your take on auto's.. They don't really do the cutting thing. OMM says they suck! I told him off in caps, but its harder to tell in words.

Its been a serious point of discussion with the OMM.. Really thinking about taking a few cuttings to preserve what I've got... PE is just outrageous once she gets going. Lovely smell too, without even being in flower :thumb: Hell, I like all the plants I'm growing! I've kept myself from sprouting more Kauai Electric.. Those three seeds will wait for the next round...

I forgot to update yesterday... So on 3/9/2012, the Vintage is showing her first pistils! :cheertwo: shes been in 12/12 long enough about dang time! If she harvests as fast as I've heard, I'll have some nice buds to harvest in ~45 days... Shes the test of my outdoor conditions. We have some leaf miners, but haven't seen any other pests... I'm in the mountains, so its cold and rainy half the time and sunny and like how you would think Hawaii should be the other half.. Every morning theres a fine mist on everything outside... We used to have some serious powder mold on our bushes outside, but it mysteriously vanished a few months ago. Crazy stuff. I might get azamax for my Thai Basil, leaf miners are in that too... Hey Jandre, the basil will produce seeds on its own right? If I don't pinch off the flowers? I think thats what the little thai lady at the store told me, but language barriers are everywhere here. Sometimes I wonder if some of the things shes used to even have english names.

Shot Adrenaline cracked, but I'll wait til the root creeps out before I put it in soil... Nice to have these auto's, since I really want the roots to develop a lot before I transplant and move the main plants to flower.. The WoS auto, BBxNL looks atrocious... Since your so kind as to picture update Mr. Gator, I'll do the same once the "camera" comes home... I like the pictures the little iPhone takes better than my Nikon.. Prolly a case of defective user closes the gap between the products.. It's a nice camera.
 
That dual start tray was in part for you. You said seeds were faster, and I kept my disagreement to myself. I decided to show you. Though I'm sure I'm right about this, I'm not triumphant: something's wrong with your cloning results, and that must be technique IMO. I want to talk about it, but not here nor now. I'll do a step-by-step with lots of pics, next time I do a tray, over at the cage fight site :yikes: Somehow,I started that mess and I'm sorry. More work for the staff on a Saturday night? They prolly thought it's party time, but where I come from fighting's more fun :) Just like a great bar fight, in on the start then duck out before the cops get there :yahoo:
Takes on a life of it's own, Bubba :Namaste:
 
THsea, I didn't even answer your direct questions above. Sorry.
I've seen great auto grows, but they don't work for me. I've been too cheap to be happy with only one plant per seed, and I don't have space nor ambition to breed. Good auto seed is magically conjured hybrids, best left to specialized breeders, I feel.

I'm delighted that you will have Vintage buds soon. I got a Vantage seed but it failed. Next order maybe Vintage and Vantage. I do have CH9's Commercial, and she looks like an Earth Mama to be: fat and sassy.

I too, need a different place to live. More space and some sunny dirt to grow tomatoes, peppers and herbs. And a growroom :)

I never like my photos, they don't capture what I see. With only one dimension, photos need movement to show size and depth. Video rules, especially if one has talent, time, and some expensive Apple software. I dream of a time-lapse grow, to music: possibly my own. I'd better get busy soon because I'm rapidly getting old.

I'll stay better in touch, and you can kill fewer of your plants, OK?
 
Hey-low.. No pics tonight. The iphone cord was left somewhere. I'll be able to do pictures tomorrow.. Which will be good, I can take a picture of the Vintage during the day. If it were happening now.. No vintage ;)

Mr.Gator, I'd appreciate any schooling in your cutting wizardry! I've watched a SoG video OMM gave me several times.. He makes it look so easy! I'm really hoping that its just because the KC's were really... About as messed up and stressed as plants could be. I thought they just looked "unique".. Truth was, they were stressed so bad they almost didn't look like cannabis plants.. But still, with only 3 out of eight cuttings surviving... Looks like I might be an expert weed-exterminator!.. The ASH top is looking good so far! PM me any time.

Still waiting on the Shot Adrenaline. I get antsy when waiting for roots.
 
"I thought they just looked "unique".. Truth was, they were stressed so bad they almost didn't look like cannabis plants.."

Regardless how stressed, sweet caresses can drive the devil away.
Provide steady conditions to affect remission from industrial disease, in days.

However you twist them up, they can get straight if one can just stop messing with them.
Only state unavailable is left/right symetricality; that template was in the seed and gets used up :hmmmm:

"PM me any time."
I prefer to post 'facts' or advice straight up openly, for peer review. :peace:

Review? :scratchinghead:
Wasn't gonna say, but I heard about your TPS reports... Didn't you get the memo?

Hey Buddy, No problem about today. I didn't feel good and went to bed. See you tomorrow. :thumb:

Yea man, sad news here too... I think the girl is going off at sea. So no more texting (you and Jo will prolly like that ;))! Only e-mail and maybe skype. She doesn't come to the site, but I've sent her e-mails with a few pic's showing this little "project". I don't think she's impressed unless they are in flower. That time when she came with me to meet you and all... Her eyes are big already, but they nearly popped out of her skull looking at the... I think it was the Jack Diesel that really impressed her. She loved the smell!

Hope you feel better. Eat something good! Besides pie! :) I'm getting Korean tonight! :drool: Time to, as you say, get ripped :peace:
 
Hello :420: and sorry for being late on this! It will be a two part update... First will be the Vintage which is in day four of flower! woohoo!
