Just spent the last hour and a half reading the news. I'm deeply troubled and disturbed by what I've read. donald trump (I refuse to capitalize his name) thinks that he doesn't need daily briefings from the Intelligence Community, saying, and I quote,"I'm, like, a smart person." Yes, I suppose he is LIKE a smart person, but sadly, he isn't a smart person. I'm horrified. And scared. And just, like.... Ummmmm..... WTF????
Anyway, there's been some speculation between myself and
@Limonene that the Goji beans may not be legit. And I think that may be accurate. The differences between the two Gojis I'm growing are just to vast for me not to think that that may be the case. I feel pretty confident that the Mountain Temple beans are legit, but the Gojis.... I dunno. I've smoked several different Goji phenos, so I guess I'll truly know once their all dried and cured and I get some in my lungs. Here's some pics, I'll let y'all be the judge.

Goji #3, or whatever it might be (this is the thin leaved one; didn't stretch at all and I had to put it on a five gallon bucket in an effort to maintain some semblance of an even canopy):

Goddamnit, I guess I didn't get pictures of the other Goji and the other Mountain Temple. Psssshhhhh..... Shit, man.... Sorry, y'all, I'll try to do better next time haha.
Anyway, my RO unit has been having issues lately, had to get a new tank, but that took about a week to get here and once I hooked it up, there were more issues. Guess I have to change out the filters, too, gonna do that at some point today. I'm worried that I may need a new membrane, as well. I hope I don't, just because I don't have a replacement for the membrane on hand. But basically that's my way of saying that I've been having to water my plants with fucking bottled water for a little bit. Been using a 50/50 mixture of distilled and spring water, since distilled has zero ppm's and spring water is around 80 ppm. I dunno if it matters or not, but it just seemed like the right thing to.
The smell coming from what I think are the Mountain Temples (although it could be a combination of the two strains) are fucking UNBELIEVABLE. Straight-up sour sour SOUR. I can taste it in my mouth for an hour or two after I get done watering and shit, smell it all over my hands and body (my girlfriend says every time after I get done watering and climb into bed,"You smell like weed...." haha). Just a really delicious sour citrus smell, coupled with a weird earth-y smell that I can't really put my finger on. I think I said this before, maybe not, but it's like a gross, rotting earth thing going on. To be honest, I don't really like that aspect of the smell, but I can tell that after a good cure, this weed is gonna be fucking DELICIOUS.
So that's that, I guess. Watered them with a little coconut, aloe and K Silicate a couple nights ago, probably gonna give them an SST/fulvic one last time and then straight water only after that until I chop, which I'm thinking will probably be four weeks from now. Maybe a little less. The smaller Goji looks like it might be done sooner than that, but we'll see. Sooooo.... Yeah. Happy Sunday, happy holidays, happy life to everybody haha.
