CO, OMM and 3lions, Thanks for the nice words!
CO, that sounds like an nice adventure you got planned, for the life of me, I don't know why I didn't plant a crop up in the Sierra's when I lived out in Cal. I used to be up in the alpine country on a weekly basis pretty much from when they opened the passes till they closed them in autumn. Maybe the higher areas would not have been ideal, to short of a growing season, but one of my favorite camping areas was at just under 8000 ft. at Long Valley which is off of Hwy 108 at Niagara Creek and then on past Eagle Meadows. Lush and fertile partially forested high mountain valley. I smoked plenty of good stuff up there so my thinking must have been impaired! Could that be why I never thought of it?

Thanks for the kind words Woodsman. Both of the tents are going to be for the whole grow process. We are looking forward to doing 2 different strains at the same time and like the idea of being able to scale back to one tent/light if and when the time comes to cut back.
We've already started the build out (link in my signature). Now that my move back into my old place has been completed (all but the unpacking) we have ordered all the fittings we need and are on the final preparations for the mothers we will have to take cuttings from.
Enough about all that. I am looking forward to seeing your end results here. You are doing a great job. They all look very healthy and tasty.
Keep it up.

Haha must be man i've actually hiked around up there got a bunch of friends in cali and a lot of them love usin the sierra madres to get their grow on the only problem with cali outdoor growin is the mexican "drug cartels" otherwise known as DEA propaganda to go raid a bunch of perfectly good ganja fields
here we have'nt gotten as much backlash yet and def not gonna be any choppers were i am gonna be you wouldn't believe the hike i took findin it man no trail, no brush clearing, and the only downhill is when youre headed out but i guarantee some big ol plants will grow perfect at this spot
lol. Actually, the last month or two reading your journal has certanly had its inspiring moments, both on and off topic. I live in the only official desert in Europe apparently but it has been so wet compared ot normal the last 6 months that the place is lush and green right now. I was thinking "yeahhman, maybe I can grow some stuff out here, plenty of room, plenty of sun, etc etc"
Then I realised that actually there are either no dam trees and would be spotted as easily as a red elephant in the snow! or I would have to fight my way through giant cactus to reach them. (not recommended tho would be quite safe)
Wow, a good side effect to global warming!

Thanks Clown, just took a look at your new start. You guys are engineering geniuses! I'm sure we will all learn some new tricks as usual with your stuff!
Wonderful, great news Joe, it's too bad ya cant get some pics up on'em, I understand though! Will be waiting for your smoke report! Did ya start that flush last week?
You know I've hiked all over the Sierra's but never came up on a grow. I'm sure they are as remote as can be. Yours sounds like a great spot and no chance since no path that someone could come across it by mistake! Good luck my friend!Haha must be man i've actually hiked around up there got a bunch of friends in cali and a lot of them love usin the sierra madres to get their grow on the only problem with cali outdoor growin is the mexican "drug cartels" otherwise known as DEA propaganda to go raid a bunch of perfectly good ganja fields

Wow, beautiful place 3! Kind of reminds me of the central coastal region along Hwy 1 in California. What about something like the Lowrider strain, something that will be less conspicuous and lower to the ground?
Hello my crazy friend! I will believe more about global warming when I don't have to shovel so much snow!LOL

Sounds like you got it all dialed in brother. Must be nice to be able to relax a little bit. You are the man.

That is just beautiful brother. I miss Spain. It was my favorite country when i took my trip to Europe. Beautiful country and the people were genuinely warm and friendly. Not a bad place to party too. If you want to learn how to party, go to Spain they will show you how it is done.

For the first time in a while, I do feel better about them. Fatleaf actually was in the upper 6's so I'm glad I didn't add lime this time! Apparently there is enough in the soil now that I don't have to worry about getting too low.

GEEZ I would be making that field and hillside my bitch this season GEEZ I wish I had some place that pretty my patches are so much work where I live in the mountains of VA. Omg I would be topping super early have 4 or 8 main branches low stressed trained down woven around the edges of the caucti and Some of my home made (AKxLR2)x(Big Devil) homoginized to perfection checkering that hillside with polymer crystals to help with what looks like a little of a dry climate. And use just a small amount of the correct feed for both types of AN's Heavy Harvest S,S,F as needed throughout the season, and honestly briar patches are my best friends so caucti should be yours, if you dont want to go there others will not want to go there. Anyway just my two cents I understand your side as well.lol. Actually, the last month or two reading your journal has certanly had its inspiring moments, both on and off topic.

Glad you like the pics guys. I was just feeling it looks beautiful right now. I am loving the indoor controlled environment and having my grow room as one of the spare bedrooms right next to me where I am sitting now. So outdoors isnt really something I expect to do shortly.
As it goes a gf of mine would like me to move over to the states, with Cali being fav as she knows I like my smoking. I dont have fondest memories of the 2 places I hae been over there, namely Virginia and Minneapolis for different reasons. Is Cali more likeable to a European do ya think?
lol you make it sound very exciting. It is something to consider in he future for sure! Once have a cple o confidence boosting grows under my belt and stocked up on the weeds that is.
Never had any doubts that you would sort it out Woodsman and glad you are feeling happy about them right now. Good vobes can only lead to better buds im sure

You live in a beautiful place my friend! It is quite a bit of work though to get a crop going out there. It would be worth it, but I understand since you already have an indoor room set up.
California is a tremendous place if you had a good job. It is very expensive to live there. The benefits quite outweigh any negatives. The weather is very mild there, definitely not like Minnesota!

Update (Photos) - Flower Day 44
Some Photos of Fatleaf. She is averaging about 60%/40% Clear/Cloudy trichomes right now so we're talking a few more weeks. (Sorry for the low resolution in the photos)
These photos were all of Fatleaf. The others will get their turn, but right now it is her turn to shine!
I'm ready now for a big fat joint
, dinner and a few games of Dark Tower with my lovely wife! I'll be checking in later this evening most likely!
