Amekins’ Fantastical Faerie Garden Grow Diary

[Moshmen]

Well that’s how this whole grow thing started for me

And look at the magic ur pullin off now.

Do you use a heat mat or just ambient temps? I ask cuz it’s been a little cold here and all my stuff is a little slow and unhappy

Heat mat or this spot about three feet above our radiator that stays around 82 F.

That is a good price A and I’m sorry to hear you are having more downs than ups I’m sure your gardening , cooking , soap making , bowl painting , being an incredible MUM to a fantastic child who loves you so much , the way you keep us loose cannons in line in your fairy garden gives you some more up than you credit them for pain is hard I understand 100% and I’m very sympathetic to your post A .
Thanks for asking well the first nerve block worked for a short time but not as long as hopped by all concern has been a slow recovery yes I’ve been back at work supervision duties with the work I do I set out the plants as per drawings and gps it sucks a lot of my time up we have just finished one huge park and have 2 very large parks on the go anyway my hips are cooked I can’t change fears in my trucks any more apprentice drives me every where ........ Doctors opponents coming up for possible spine fuse .............

Hey guys , both excellent comments about heat and germination , it's a huge advantage when the seeds and even clones are in the proper temp zone , which should be warm ...

I also pop seeds in chosen warm pockets like amekins , I have some spots I can isolate that hover in the mid 80's and my seeds react aggressively to sprout , same is true when rooting clones , I mean it's remarkable , a little chill and they don't move ,
temps are so important in the
Rooting game , I'm just posting this for new readers or followers of amekins thread , I know you guys obviously understand this info already ....

It makes a huge difference, agreed. Limited light for clones as well. (My heat mat is actually long and thin and can be used to wrap around a jar of sourdough starter for feeding.)

Hey Amekins , yea ...that's the most remarkable heat / temperature dependent reaction I've witnessed , I can feed / refresh my starter and it sits on the kitchen table , sometimes for hours in a temperature that it dosent like , then I put it on top of the fridge or if the heat comes up from a radiator in winter and BOOM .... The starter reacts and overflows out of my Tupperware

I would love to do more fermentation experimentation but I don’t really drink and I’m the only one here who likes kimchi, and neither of us like kombucha. I know there are more things to ferment and I hope to make some pickles with homegrown cucumbers.

Blue dream will be chopped by the end of the week. No cannabis plants will be in flower for me at that point. Outside, there are flowers in the strawberry plants and the first petunia bud appeared. And then there was this turkey roaming around our parking lot...being eyed by neighbors as if it were November.

There's more hair on some of those buds than Sidney Crosby's playoff beard.

It’s awful :-(.

It's the price we pay for having cats.

In all honesty, for every hair of theirs there is one of mine. My hair has been yanked out of my head by fan blades when bent over to do plant care in much too small an area.

And so my property management called today to ask what’s going on on my balcony. The privacy screen I had all last year apparently isn’t allowed and now the temporary greenhouse isn’t allowed. I told them to show me where it’s documented that I can’t have a temporary greenhouse or privacy shield. This definitely is setting me off today.

Check your towns zoning, some communities like Acton are forbidding agriculture.

I’m medical not adult use so I don’t think they can do anything. But I grew my cannabis plants outdoors on the balcony last year and not a single complaint.
