Morning tokers and growers, hope your all toked and ready to start the day. 🙂 A day late this week, been busy, what plonker invented Christmas. lol Anyway, both plants are ploughing on, the Aurora is nice branchy plant, and now has white hairs, that's week one of flower gone. 😎 The Sofa Surprise has none, but I expect them next week if its not a dude, so see what happens this week. Had a quick pint of the ruby ale, needs another week to mellow, its a bit fizzy, so it needs to be left until next week, and then I'll have another pint and test that. 😁 The IPA is in the fermenter and will be ready for Christmas. Will have a look for another kit this week and get it ordered, looking for a Bitter this time maybe. 🙂 Right, pics.

First up is the Aurora Indica, its weeping a bit if you look, been cold here so I bumped up the heat and it gave me the bird. lol So it's been turned down again, women. lol So I expect it to be back to normal next week after our bust up. 😁

The IPA 32 pint is in the fermenter, and I'm glad to say it's not the Vesuvius the ruby beer was, no ceilings to clean or red tops to find, yet. 😁

Yo T n G's, good morning, it's Saturday and time for an update. Well this week sees the return of those wreckers of many grows, the Spider Mite. (I abhhore these little bastards) How do they know your in flower. 🤬 They're not doing much damage at the minute, so its a pick the worst leaves off and burn them to keep them in check, 6 weeks of flower left, we'll see how it pans out, they have time to floor my grow. Moving along, the Aurora Indica is in week two of flower and is starting to produce some muff, only a few hairs at the minute, but they will soon muff up. 😎 The Sofa Surprise is catching up, it's now only a third smaller than the Aurora, and still not showing it's sex, but it's looking more babe than dude. 🙂 The salad farm is picking up speed, soon be enough to pick a bit by mid week, seems fine on 12/12.👍 Pictures paint a thousand words, so lets have some. lol

Had another Ruby Beer last night, just to test it again. 😉 And its fine to drink now its had that extra week. Just bottled the IPA, I'll be ordering another beer kit today when I get a minute, surprised at how many different beers there are to go at these days. 🙂

Beer and a bud. 😎

Quite clear to say that no filtering took place. 👍

All this testing made me hungry, so had to eat a Vanilla Slice. 😁

And that a wrap people of the herb, more enthralling updates next week, until then, just keep tokin folks. 👍

P.S Looking at the pics, I think I can see a white hair poking out the right hand side of the Sofa Surprise, about three inches down?

Morning tokers and growers, hope you all have that Saturday feeling. 🙂 Both plants are doing well, spider mites are staying at the bottom of the plant, and with week 3 of flower out of the way they only have another 5 weeks to do their worst, they seem content to stay on the bottom branches, and I'm also content they want to stay there. 🙂 The Aurora Indica is bushy lady, and in the absence of two other plants she's spreading out, I would say she has a third of my grow space, and looks like she's going to demand more, no complaints from me though, she can have it all. 😁 The Sofa Surprise is getting a little bit swamped due to the Aurora kidnapping her light, but as the Aurora levels out, the Sofa should push its way up and out. 🙂 Had some of the salad on a sandwich last night, lovely and crisp lettuce and rocket, can't beat it. 👍 Any way, lets have some pics.

The Aurora Indica, week 3 of flower gone. Has some nice branching on it.

And that's all I have for you this week, not a lot see in this run, but the next should be better, got some new seeds coming, had an email to say they're on their way, a couple of months late, but better late than never. I still have the Amazon seeds, but due to not knowing any thing about the supplier, I'm not keen on placing all my eggs in one basket, so when the other seeds get here, I'll plant a couple of each and see how they go. Not knocking the unknown seller, as I know nothing about them and are probably a cosha seedbank, I'll let you know. Anyway, enough rambble, see you next week, keep tokin folks. 👍

You learn some thing every day.

Diapause, spontaneous interruption of the development of certain animals, marked by reduction of metabolic activity. It is typical of many insects and mites, a few crustaceans and snails, and perhaps certain other animal groups. This period of suspended development is an apparent response to the approach of adverse environmental conditions.

I'm putting two coats of emulsion on my grow space next turn around, I'll give them suspended development (little bastards) 🧨💀

I both love and hate the mite in equal amounts, hate them for the obvious reasons, but you have to admire the resilience of these little bastards. 🤬 I'm leaving the IPA until Christmas, just in case I feel the urge to go mite stompin. lol

Wonder howd they go with pyrethium plants in the room .

I had a nice Super Lemon Haze get root rot, and the mites doubled on it, as if they knew it was weak, cleaned up the root rot and the mites dropped off a bit, maybe root rot is like tomato ketchup to them. 🍕🍟🍅😁

Morning tokers and growers, hope your all getting it on this Christmas morning. 🎄 Plants are fine, no defs, and the mites are staying putt on the lower leaves, all I've done is take the leaves off that are badly colonized and burn the little. 🤬 As I've said, they're not doing any damage at the minute, so I'm chilled with the situation for the time being. 🙂 Four weeks left of flower, and it looks like both plants will finish together. 😎 New seed order came a couple of days ago, so plenty to go at for the new year. Bought some new strains I've not grown before, a few favourites and couple of strains I'd like another run at to see if I can get the better of the strain. Its a strange thing this small growing for personal, getting strains that like to share a bed can be a nightmare and mostly boils down to trial and error, so my plan is to grow some of the errors together from this last year and see if they will share some love with each other. 👩‍❤️‍👩 I was given couple of pure Sativa seeds, plan was to grow them outside, as these are seven footers by the time they flower, so not ideal for indoors, although I am considering a one plant Sativa scrog, only downside is it's boring to watch and grow unless you have a couple of plants, and the Sativa could be four month indoor run, so it has remained a thought. 🙂 Anyway, onto the pics.

The Sofa got a bit buried by the Aurora, I would love to have had them the same height, but it was ten days I think behind. The Aurora is starting to become a little pungent, and it will get worse. lol I have no idea about the Sofa, but I find my self wishing I had taken a cut, as it has a serious stem on it, a really strong sturdy plant, would have done well outdoors.

Morning tokers and growers, hope you had a stunning xmas, time to get back to normal, xmas is out the way, the new year has started, time to plan ahead for your outdoor pots and planters, get them sorted for Spring in two months time. 😉 All is well here at team Chemistry plant wise, I'm at the minute planning my next round. 😎 Plant wise, the Aurora is steaming on unfazed by the marching army of spider mites tickling its ankles, the mites have stayed in the bottom layer of leaves, this is good. 🙂 The Sofa Surprise is starting to build some nice buds on it, bit slower than the Aurora as its been shaded most of its life, this is the downside to growing plants in a confined space, some you win, some you lose, it will still turn out ok. 🙂 I'm thinking about changing the colour of the walls in my grow space? I fancy taupe again GT if your out there 😁 It's a strange thing, we're taught to believe that more light is right, but in my last two grows, the buds just out of the light did the best, while the buds under the light didn't do as well? And again I'm seeing the same thing with my present grow, the buds on the Aurora that are in the best light, are smaller than the ones just out of it, why? Too much light maybe? Well, I'll find out in three weeks when my present run finishes, and the colour gets changed for the next run. Right, pics. 🙂

The Aurora Indica, just finished week 5 of flower, 3 more weeks to go. 😎

Cheers Oldy. About the same, two years since I spoke to him, last time he was building bump loaders. 😁 Maybe that had some thing to do with it. lol

Yo tokers and growers, howz it hanging on this frosty morning, cold here today, white over, snow forecast. 🥶 On a sunny'er note, the plants are going for it, the Aurora Indica is fattening up really well, I've grown strains of this that were gappy nug wise on the stalk, this one from Nirvana seems to be tighter on the stalk, so it has the base ball bat appearance of tight nugged long cola's, not complaining either way as its turned out to be a good cultivar of this strain. The Sofa Surprise is showing well, seems to be at the same stage as the Aurora muff wise, so should finish at the same time, hopefully. 🙂 Got the Christmas beer all bottled up, give it three weeks and it will be drank with a nice bong, living the life or what. 😁 Right, pics.

Aurora Indica, just finished week 6 yesterday, start of week 7 of flower today. Another 2 weeks and we'll see what we have. 😎

If you look at the back, the plant in the middle up the wall is the Sofa Surprise, not done bad to say it was swamped by the Aurora.

Sofa Surprise, just finished week 6 of flower, looking forward to having a toke of this, not knowing what it is has me intrigued. 😁

Looking over the top of the Aurora, down onto the Sofa, bit cramped. 😁
DSC00052


And that is it, another quality update posted. 😁 We should start to see cinnamon fronds appear this week on mass, another week and a half and we should be near flushing, can't wait. 😎 So you know what you have to do until then, just keep tokin. 👍
