One of the many places my mum grew up in was Singapore, she would tell me how she had to check her shoes every morning for spiders and scorpions, and how one day my grandfather had to see off a cobra with a dustbin lid and broom lolEveryone hates spiders but snakes are ok? As a plumber I have to at least tolerate spiders or I'd never be able to do the job. I crawl under houses and in atics a lot. Servicing my apprenticeship many moons ago I opened up a cabinet under a kitchen sink coated with cock roaches. That bothered me more than any spider. I had to lay on my back to work while the roaches would drop on me.
I love it. I’ll be following whole way through.Well, since I've never got them going and out this early in the year I don't know how much to expect. Usually I pop seeds in mid May and in the ground June 1. Usually anywhere from 2-6 oz per plant of dried cured bud. The three females flowering now are the smallest I've ever grown - seeds popped end of Jan hoping on getting a jump on the season and growing several monsters, but they had other ideas. Crap weather, very unusal in these parts and it is what it is. Maybe an oz off of each, before drying?
It's been a blast and hell of a learning experience. I never tried growing weed in winter. From now on I'm a grow it year round. Pop a few seeds every month and see what happens. Still looking forward to a few of those little ones in the ground. 3 month head start and their root system must be incredible by now. 10-12 footers? We'll see!
Rock wool behind the ears? That's just mean. Funny as hell though.My phone got fixed last week but camera doesn’t work now.
My garden shed is spider city when can get camera working again I’ll show ya.
Hadn’t been down there for a while, when I went last time started clearing overgrow around it and a fox shot out from back of shed.
Went down couple days later and he came out again less alarmed this time could sense I wasn’t going to hurt it.
Then I noticed shed door was slightly ajar, he or she think it’s a he don’t look too dainty, he’s been sleeping there on some rock wool insulation through winter. So I put the brick back that keeps door shut.
Came back few days later and he had pushed it away and I could see prints from his claws on my bags of soil I’m amending.
Shut door again but got got a little upset when he decided best not try luck again, sort of miss him but could see neighbours complaining if I’d let him stay, anyway cold weather has gone now he will be fine.
Didn’t look like a new addition to this world looked mangy but been sleeping on rock wool can do that lol.
Ps remember at work years ago newbie was complaining about rock wool itching, one of the lads turned round and said you know how to stop that don’t you? Rub a bit behind both ears wasn’t pretty can tell you. Poor lad
Those greedy gophers I look forward to seeing the way you get rid of emUpdate 6-2
KILL ALL THE GOPHERS!
I've had enough. I must eliminate the gophers. I'll be spending the day researching. Enough!
She lost her tap root but did have a couple strong side roots. I dug her up, put her in water, powdered root hormone and in 5 gal pot. I'll take as many clones as I can, I've got to cut her up anyway.
I assume she's been laying there since early this morning. Had a young opossum on the patio about 3am this morming and reminded me I had to add cages.
Looks like the gopher found a weak spot in the chicken wire and had a feast.
Luckily no sun today or she'd have been cooked, so there's that.
Wishing YOU Happy Growing, I'm pissed.
Personally I'd like to catch them alive, hold their eyelids open with toothpicks and make 'em watch a Pawn Stars mega marathon.Those greedy gophers I look forward to seeing the way you get rid of em
I laughed wayyy to hard at the pawn stars mega marathonPersonally I'd like to catch them alive, hold their eyelids open with toothpicks and make 'em watch a Pawn Stars mega marathon.
Seriously I'll be buying more traps and try several different animal pees. Poison is to iffy. Do not want to poison any other animals.
I'm not a tv watcher. News, cooking channel, a movie on occasion, reruns of Married with Children at least once a month, and football. I can't watch anything without either dvring or pausing for 15-20 minutes so I can fast forward through the commercials. I'd catch my wife watching pawn stars years ago and remembered why I no longer watch tv.I laughed wayyy to hard at the pawn stars mega marathonI’m interested too see if any pees work I know it’s weird but I watched people use coyote pee to scare off other coyotes
I've double dug the north half 10-20' twice by hand. The rocks would kill a rotor-till. Pulled out thousands of pounds and still finding more. I've only dug areas out of the South half and will be putting a greenhouse over it so no more digging. Planning on framing about 3' out from the greenhouse walls making raised beds for potatoes, onions and garlic. You bet I'll have brand new chicken wire under the whole thing. I also have 3 bathtubs I can use in there.Wish I could do an outdoor grow, plants in the garden look happy. Crazy how nature remedied your clones, healthy soil is so important and a little compost goes a long way. I would rotor-till as much compost as possible into the bed every spring!
