Weekly Summary
It's now been 6 weeks since flip and things appear to be going relatively smoothly. While inspecting the girls I found one branch on my LA Chocolat that had a couple of nanners beginning to show. Since this was the only spot on the whole plant showing any sign of hermi I went ahead and removed the entire branch and will monitor closely instead of chopping her.

I then inspected my tent for light leaks and found where a corner seem had begun to come apart. So I taped up the seem from both the outside as well as the inside and checked again for light leaks.

Now that the stretch has stopped they're beginning to pack on bud weight and the trichome production is also beginning to ramp up.

They are also beginning to take less water.

Since they're nearing the home stretch I will plan to install a second fan and filter soon. This should reduce my lights on tent temps and get the trichome production popping in the final weeks.

That's exactly what I meant Happy Hemper.

I used to date a girl that's a nutritionist. While whipping up some my famous culinary creations she would always be looking over my shoulder trying to see what I was doing all the while telling me how it would be "better" to do things this way or that way instead of the way that I was doing things in order to preserve the nutritional value of veggies and whatnot.

I should have paid attention instead of telling her things like "won't you leave me be and go eat a carrot or something". LOL!!

I always found it odd that the girl knew so much about foods and nutrition but couldn't even make a boiled egg taste good. The girl was a horrible cook. Things that make you go hummm....??

And that was enough reason to let her go. Haha! Unless she had other compensations and you really prefer to do the cooking. :laughtwo: Obviously not the case there.

I find your boiled soup idea fascinating. Unless you boil it for days it should still give you something, I'm just not sure what, or that it'd be worth the energy expenditure. An interesting experiment though, since you're not going for living things with this, but rather vitamin and supplement value. How do you plan to quantify results, if you do plan such?

Yeah buddy. There are some fine genetics in this batch. But I'm sure it pales in comparison to what's on offer at your new place of employment. :)

I can only dream of all of the girls that you're exposed to on a daily basis.
When I grow up I wanna play in da' big garden just like cajuncelt. LOL!
:Namaste:

:yahoo: Me too!!! Me too!!! :slide:


Edit: We were cross-posting and I just wanted to say how lovely those bud porn pictures were. You thoughtful man. :kisstwo:

I don't mind doing the cooking. Unfortunately she did not have "other compensations" that were great enough to offset her lack of other domestic skills. We were just not a good match from the get go. LOL!

An interesting experiment though, since you're not going for living things with this, but rather vitamin and supplement value. How do you plan to quantify results, if you do plan such?

The energy expenditure amounted to about 30 to 40 minutes in the kitchen. I don't really consider this as energy expenditure. LOL!!
It will work as a vitamin and enzyme supplement and provide some level of benefit as long as the ingredients are varied and it's applied at low to moderate applications rates.
The sugars, carbs, and proteins should also provide a bit of a nutritional boost for the microlife as well.

I don't really have the space to conduct experiments of the scale needed to accurately gauge the effectiveness so I have no plans to do so at this time. Maybe someday when I graduate to a larger garden. :)

Thanks for the compliment Ganjazz.

You wanna trade?? :)

My head is constantly filled with thoughts of how to expedite my retirement so that I can move to a more MJ friendly location and begin playing outdoors again. I already have my greenhouse plans in place. LOL!! (no joke...)

Been watching Cola Monster have we? Ooooo.. It's time for one of his video updates! I forgot what day it is.
 
Re: UncleC's Ganja Grove - Organic Soil - LED - SOG - La Chocolat/Vanilla Kush/LSD/GS

I'm not aware of the Cola Monster but if visiting the Cola Monster's journal will nudge me even closer to early retirement maybe I should look him up.....
:blunt:

If it didn't I'd be mighty surprised. There's no doubt the man works like a dog, but it's a happy dog who gets to grow monster plants, legally, in those incredible greenhouses. Oh yeah. Do visit. And then start those plans in motion. :battingeyelashes: :Love:

Trade no, but I would consider a joint outdoor grow LOL

It sounds as though this guy is living my dream. LOL!

I'm all over that buddy.
:thumb::high-five:
I'll be right over with my gardening tools. :)
 
Re: UncleC's Ganja Grove - Organic Soil - LED - SOG - La Chocolat/Vanilla Kush/LSD/GS

I already have lots of land available back home that's already being used for agriculture production. It wouldn't take much to convert things over to an organic cannabis operation. :)
This is only a pipe dream on my part though. I'd be happy as a lark just to be able to do some small to medium scale breeding projects (medium to large scale) without fear of going to prison.

Where I'm originally from, you could still end up with 6 months or more prison time for simple possession of less than an ounce depending on the judge that hears the case. A greenhouse full of plants much less a full scale canna plantation or grow operation just doesn't seem to be a realistic hope.

11 acres should work out just fine. Have garden tools will travel. I hear that Canada is nice during the summer months..... :)
 
Re: UncleC's Ganja Grove - Organic Soil - LED - SOG - La Chocolat/Vanilla Kush/LSD/GS

The East Coast here is great :) Almost completely surrounded by water and a landscape covered with ponds and small lakes, as well as, mountainous terrain, its an outdoor lovers dream LOL
 
Re: UncleC's Ganja Grove - Organic Soil - LED - SOG - La Chocolat/Vanilla Kush/LSD/GS

Sure sounds like my kind of place. And since I'm a Cajun, a move to Nova Scotia would be like a return to the motherland. :)
 
Re: UncleC's Ganja Grove - Organic Soil - LED - SOG - La Chocolat/Vanilla Kush/LSD/GS

You're probably right. Motherland here we come!!
