Yeah, what a score! It's been sitting in my neighbor's back yard for years, used as a storage. Planted a bunch of broccoli and brussel sprout seedlings this afternoon.
It was 39 seeds planted yesterday and 8 more in coco in peat pots. I didn't want to plant anymore Chemgopher this year but with the frickin mice still stealing seedlings I don't have any other strains I can take a chance with.
Last night the mice struck again
The only 3 that survived were wrapped in aluminum screen. The rest became a mouse salad but were shit to begin with and why they weren't wrapped. I'm done, poison with added peanutbutter is waiting. Traps can't get then all, obviously so time to nuke it. The last thing I want is for a predator poisoned like our halks or owls but I can't tolerate any more. I want them DEAD! Their families, DEAD!
The rats found the bird seed in the garage, ripped up the bag and are having a party. I'm beyond pissed at the little bastards. Poison is too good for 'em. I wanna tie 'em up, prop open their eye lids with toothpicks and make 'em watch Cspan. Yeah, I'M THAT PISSED!
So, let's throw some jet fuel on that fire, shall we?
The 2 girls throwing balls 3 weeks ago are at it again.
Been checking daily so got 'em before they could piss me off even more. They are headed back to the swing set and they can do what they want. I promise they won't like the upcoming weather. F 'em. It's either that or the compost pile. Figure they'll at least give me some smoke eventually but any seeds will be handled with care. These are not true hermies, just plants that are determined to produce another generation. It's called nature but after 3+ months of seedy bud I don't need more. DONE!
Just look at that flower
I wanna smoke that without shucking seeds. Call me crazy. Guessing mid Jan to Feb 1st.
I take pics of this one twice a day. Can't help it. This morning at 6:39am, sunrise.
I can taste it. 8-10 weeks to go. Gonna let it ripen fully as that taste is what I'm looking for and won't settle for less.
Returned to smoking the lesser plants. Amazing the difference. It all works and tastes great but that bud I clipped yesterday is still the Gold Standard. OMG! The taste on that rivals the top top shelf and the high is beyond anything I've ever grown. Still can't believe I grew that! Just took the last bong hit of it until Dec 8th when I turn 61, I mean 29. Something like that! What a great taste.
So, bought a Turkey today. I really want to raise 2 turkeys a year and name them Thanksgiving and Christmas. Not quite the same as hunting but this is California. PLEASE don't tell 'em. They'll lock me up forever!
From the patio, 30' away
I gotta post on making one of these. Easy peasy. You can wrap with real cheap plastic which will last about 3 months. I've been wrapping twice a year for 5 years to help pop seeds in spring and fall. This year I ordered 4 mil from Amazon. I had planned on double wrapping but will get to it. 2 dozen gallon bottles of water will keep some heat in. Gotta install geothermal heating/cooling. Lot of digging but once done it would rock.
So after hitting that primo bud I'm feeling much better. Still wanna kill something, rats and mice come to mind but hey, that's just me.
Happy Growing!!!
