TGR’s High Elevation Grow Journey

[Thatoneguyyouknow_]

I went through finding this out the hard way a few years ago. Smoking this “wax” for a few days and im like wtf I swear this shit doesn’t even get me high lol

gave it to a buddy who only smokes wax he explained this exact thing. And it makes sense because if it was legit you could never grow it for that price and make money. Simply not possible unless you got slave labor and a bunch of extremely cheap land lmao

Exactly. An 8th of true connoisseur grade, top shelf kill is worth more as cured flower then the gram of wax it makes. And it's also less work to prepare it for sale.


Wac from an outdoor crop don't usually pull the kind of color and terps your average dab snob would usually want now a days anyway, and even if you had slave labor and a lot of land, you'd probably make more money off edibles, and your concentrates wouldn't make any money unless you centrifuge separated extracts of poor material, and recombine them with terpenes

The universe is listening

And I bought a lottery ticket that day too just to see if she’s a selective listener.

Wildfire season came up quick. We had one that sparked up at the Upper Richbar campground. People come up there to BBQ but never put the day-use grills out when they’re done. Couple that with 20-30 mph winds and we have a 450 acre monster burning in a really inconvenient area. Here we go again!

Well, 450 acres as of when I went to bed. Who knows where we are at now. But at least air tankers have the green light in about 15 minutes.

Correction. Two fires now. It’s gonna be hell in a hand basket this summer again.

On a good note, if anyone is ever traveling to Sequoia, check out Posey and Glenville up over the Greenhorn Summit. Awesome little towns and the drive is pretty easy. Unless you get freaked out with heights. Or heights that hang off the side of a few ridge lines

From the looks of it, your place has quite a bit of defensible space!

I keep as much as I can. The Erskine Fire tore through here the year before we moved. There’s a lot of defensible space everywhere but what did a lot of houses in was the 55 mph wind. The people I’ve talked to said it was like a flame thrower.

Thank you! Still quite a ways out but ya never know.

We just had our first fire to. Waaaaay to soon.

It is way too soon. Winter just ended

I’d say I’m a fan of this Gaia business so far. The Peaceblaster 4 x Haymeadows in the yard are looking good.

I’m at the end of the line with the plastic pots finally. Two or three years ago that was all I used. I’ll be happy to see the last of the lot hit the rubbish bin

Moved the San Cinco and Santa Maria Hemp bambinas from Boulder Hemp to the back porch. I was in the grow room working out space for the seedlings this morning. I do have priorities

@MartyMcFly42oh Check out that Honeysuckle. That gal is picking up steam

Once she got out of the shed into the indoor space it made a big difference.

You got a weirdly slow banjo blaster there. Looks happy and healthy though. Mine are still biting at the heels of my pb4 x haymeadows

Very unexpectedly my banjo blaster are even out pacing my Queen B, and special queen is prob my most vigorous stabilized plant.


you can probably get away with higher N levels on the columbian lineages with organics and top dresses, and especially under real sunlight. Its all the nitrate and ammonia content of most modern salt feeds they seem to not enjoy by my observations. With soluble feeds they just much prefer more even ratios and urea > nitrates. Outdoors organically, i just through all kinds of stuff down, goat manures, flood loams, and even spiked a bit of that parttial fish alaska more bloom first half of flower. they took everything in stride. I even did a few flora micro feedings through veg and flower outside over all the natural organics, they ate it up like cheez-its. I had literal trees. IIRC flora micro is full of nitrates. I dont have a bottle right now to look at.

That’s actually 2.0. I killed #1 by mistake.

I knocked the first cup over being a dumba** and it went everywhere. I put it in new dirt again in a cup and it was dead in 48 hours.

Was that the pack of inhouse genetics that I gave you? Looks great, nice big leaves on her.
