I'm confused about the whole calling a female plant with a boy's name, whether it be Greg above, Jack Herer or Doug Varin. These are female plants, baby! They should have female names. That's my 2 cents. I'm all about #GIRLPOWER!

Good morning Hashgirl
Oh don’t be confused. That’s what I named her, she is a girl so it’s my girls name.
I know it sounds odd, but every plant I name means something to me. From my Twiggy, to Frank, to River. I am honouring a memory, a thought, a feeling, an experience, a love.
Greg is her name. While I am happy to explain my rationale, me changing her name because you don’t like it would be reducing my power of independent thought, not celebrating it. For me embracing and expanding on my ideas is the heart of my power as a girl.
Not all girls want to wear pink and draw love hearts. I mean I do, lol, but not all girls do, and that is wonder if woman. We come in so many fabulous flavours and I think we have more than enough room to accept, nurture and empower girls who are Doug’s, and Jack’s and Greg’s.
Just my two cents.
Jackie Herer?
From google: Now a mostly-male name, in its earliest incarnation Douglas was used equally for girls and
boys
I got nothin' for Greg...but T. named that one after a sick friend (special circumstances )
If I ever name a plant, she'll be Jolene...
I usually don't name them, but you never know....

So I made a Captains Call today. I know my grow choices are different and that’s okay. I’ve always marched to the beat of my own drum. I base my grow style on the way I grow house plants. I always start seeds in trays. I like it because it allows me control. I know exactly where my seed is because of the small space. Once my seeds pops, she almost becomes like a premmie baby in a humidity crib. Once my seed is breathing on her own, I’m happy to uppot. I don’t base this on leaves, or size, I base this on what I want from my plant and my gut feeling.
For me while Cleo stands straight and proud like a sergeant, she is too leggy. I didn’t like it. So I put her from her bassinet to her cot to gain some control.
As you’d expect, not much of a root system just yet.
Greg Day 4
Hanging out with her sisters
From little girls, big girls grow
Greg & Blue
#girlpower
Mother Nature provided her with a thirst quenching drink, and now she, and the flower girls (who were raced back to the attic before the rains hit) are back under lights and in the dry, while Cleo gets to dance in the rain.
Time for me to bounce into this rainy day and slay.
Have the best day ever and stay sexy

Watching you get on with it Tra Im constantly reminded of how much fun it can be to just enjoy the grow.
Forgive me for laughing along with you, your enthusiasm and spirited approach is infectious (look thats a horrible word), and Im counting the days to set up tent.
The lightest touch is sometimes the strongest.
Your girls look great. No wonder you're smiling.
Oh and Ive never been sexy, so Ill try a bit harder. Seems like good advice. On a jobsite. With bearded men. Might get interesting.

It's such a pleasure to watch your grows Tra. You have turned this into an art. Greg looks set to a wonderful and healthy start.

Thank you, CoffThat was oddly poetic lol glad to see your day is treating you well
You are such a good egg.
That is such a nice thing to say. Thanks Deeve.
OMG lolling!
Have you even seen my grows brah?!
I come in like a fucking wrecking ball! I think I’ve ripped more arms off than a limb collecting psychopath!
Thank you.
So funny you say that. When I saw Cleo today, swaying in the rain I literally big smiled. Growing with you all really does bring me daily smiles and I’m not even joking. It’s super cool having another Australian to grow with too. You need to get your shit together, get that tent up and crank up a new journal.
You got this Deeve.
I have every faith. Embrace it.
Work it Deeve!
Thank you Carmen
You have been such a great addition to the forum. I’m so glad to have met you.

Im a bit worried about how to respond. So for sure if anyone is a little queesy, take a bit of a lay down and scroll on.
I laughed pretty hard at that pic Tra! Even got the blown out right knee like me. Not my mo, but hello mustache!
Ok. Enough hijinx, or I will need to grab the latest 420 magazine and use it fan myself off. Phew.
I did see something while perusing the men folk at work today.
Now bear (bare?) with me, its a longish bow. If you ever need to change jobs, think I have one that fits your skill set. Spotted this today.
Made me think of yòur diagram instantly. So let me sell it.
You are a real live wire, and youd get to work with other live wires. Fit right in with the other bright sparks. Another lady tradie would be great for diversity targets, and because most of the electrical team are gay you shouldnt be harrased too much.
Honestly they smell so good, i can tell when they are on site before Ive seen their vans or said hello. And they are so clean in their workmanship, tidy up after themselves and all. All pressed shirts and polos. No night shifts.
And yes, Im on the clock for the
Great Aussie Grow Off (It grows off man!)
Aka State of Origin
Aka Banana Benders Vs Vic Mexicans
Aka Tra Star Girl Grow Vs Messy Deeve Dog
Aka You (schooling, overshadowing, slaying, gloating) vs Me (I wish I was better, hippy, I know boats, god let it stop, beaten by a lady grower)
So far, like today, I have;
Lights
Tents
Electrics
Stickers
Seeds
Wifes permission
Intent
Enthusiasm
Humble pie
Just need grow medium, nutes, and place to start. We get there Tra. Pacing myself.

What a masterpiece!
I’m in!
That sounds so fun!
I’m hell keen to have a grow off. In fact I have kept a version of the seed I sent you.
I sent you a Lemon something and a Gorilla Glue auto. I think we should plant the lemon one that’s a 12:12, that way we can Flippity doo dah at the same time.
I’ll even start a new journal featuring QLD vs VIC
Shots fired.
You say that like lady growers are less than. Look around bruv, us girls are focused, passionate and hard working when it comes to our grows. We may not have your physical strength but never mistake that for weakness, coz we will fuck. you. up.
I can actually help you with that.
Omg I can totally recommend the nutes two of my lady growers recommended. I hate research so my friends Hashgirl and Em put their heads together and found me the perfect nute. It’s actually so SO good, and hell easy.
Medium, a funny, first time I was asked what medium I thought I was being asked about a clairvoyant and I literally thought “some of these cunts are cRaY”. Lolllll. I have a great and easy mix.

Volcano jizz
Blood and bone

That would be great. Works for me.
Ill have to up my post quality game!
Uh oh
Your point is extremely well made, and I do not want to get the fairer sex offside, everyone on their merits, and ability. In hindsight I shouldn't have left it open to interpretation, was in humour, in context to competition.
Apologies to any ladies, and to you Tra. Wasnt intended to be divisive.
Im already impressed, Ill put some on order.
Great info. Thanks.
Haha, love the enthusiasm.
Gotcha T, cheersAnything I can do to help or support you, I’m literally a Coooo eeeee away
