Looking amazing in your garden. Your plants are way bigger than my full season plants. Nice work!!

If you ever need anybody to test those beans let me know, they sound like a great cross. Been really impressed with the Sunset Sherbert I have been growing. I bet it makes good hash as well.

Been trying to track down a tray of GSC because my cut isn't putting out what I need to re-fill my greenhouse. Got a couple leads, hope it pans out.
i wanna hit that gelato too!

A few people have been asking why i do dumbpots...
1) my garden sits on top of multiple giant slabs of granite
2)im not into digging through granite or destroying history, there are atleast 30 of these holes on my property.

Pomo grinding holes, awesome! That is a very special piece of land you have there.

Have you ever considered some raised beds instead of the dumbpots sox? Just try one or two next year, see what you think. They definitely take more money and labor than the pots, but I think you will be pleasantly surprised by the results.

Those holes are rather interesting. Can you please give a little insight on them? I have never seen this.

If I'm not mistaken, those are grinding holes that native American cultures used to pulverize acorn nuts, or whatever native plants they used for nutrition. This was used as flour, and various spice blends to feed the population.
We have a bunch in my area as well.

When I was searching for property in the area, Indians and miners would use those holes and chuck acorns and other nuts. All the shells were left behind and the soil was dark and rich. Really cool to have on your property, little piece of history.

I am jelous of your grow, I may not be able to come back to this thread.......Great work;)

i cant put anything into this grow due to the big chance of code enforcement coming out...they already chopped one of my properties.
