Aloha Nui..!

I can see some of the girls starting to complain via the new growth so I've got to do something with these plants that have been stuck in these 5-inch squares for far too long..!


Remo chemo × gunslinger

Most of these plants will be in bloom within the next week or so so I need to give their Roots a little time to set, so I've got to do it today, wanted to do it yesterday :/

Now that I know that other people have run into muddy bags of compost it's mainly the bug that concern me so whereas it's a Miracle Grow product & it was a fresh skid so I'm going to give it a try!

Edit: so what I'm going to do is with cuts that I only have one of like this Remo that I made I'm going to put it in my old soil mix;

everything I have backed up will go into the new mix, & I'll put one that I have doubles of that's backed up into 100% pro mix, once I find out how much perlite I should mix with it for best results? This is a big step holyshit!

So today my Beach is for the tourist (some may have heard the song in 'what are you listening to right now' thread regarding tourists that I posted not too long ago LOL if not forget about it), so forget about the beach today, & tomorrow it's going to rain so let's see if we can make this ocean style right here!?



.. really wish I grabbed that mushroom compost because until I decide what I want to do with this muddy Miracle-Gro compost I have stopped my project, and I really need to get a few plants up potted cuz they're going into flower within a week because I'm going to have several vacancies in the bloom room soon



.. I'm still on the fence, I had a plan I searched a bunch of soil recipes & I was going with something very simple but I don't know what I'm going to do now if I'm honest? Even if I go up and grab a bag of the mushroom compost it's very likely going to be just as wet as this stuff cuz it was right next to it, I thought the bag looked sealed well and I took one from way under the rack which I thought was kind of centered and would be the driest but obviously that didn't work out :/

Edit: while I'm at it (and I hope I'm not breaking any rules) I'd like to offer a prayer for the people of the islands and of the Southeast U.S. Coast who are dealing with a monster of a hurricane

Have you seen the movie Sharknado? I picture sharks flying through the air and attacking you in your beach town. :-)


But seriously i have my mom and brother and family in Jacksonville. They may be right in the path of the storm.

Yes I have seen it! lol

Dude! All the best wishes for your family! This is a big big storm I really hope this thing stays offshore like they seem to think it may but even then there's going to be a lot of impact, the Bahamas are deep in it now!

2 parts ffof
1 part worm castings
1 part compost
1part Pro mix
1 part perlite
3 tbs. dolomite

It may look wet from the picture but it's dry as a bone and fluffy! it's a beautiful consistency. I'm not trying to make a super soil I don't have an issue feeding it nutes but I doubt I be feeding this mix for a while?

..but we'll know as soon as the slurry results are ready in about 10 more minutes?

Edit: slurry= ppm435, pH6.7


*A note on the Remo chemo cross above, that seedling struggled in ffof, must have been 3 years ago or more when I started running the remos I wasn't mixing the ffof well, pretty much just scooping it out of the bag and using it as is.

I saved it but since then it will tolerate almost nko nutes and I mean none (I can't begin to tell you how little I feed that plant!?) and she's had the curled tips since that happened (both my keepers are the sativa pheno)

& even the remo cross in the picture in above post has the curly leaf trait to a lesser degree. Remo#2 is my favorite of the two keepers, in fact I may not even run #1 again? Remo is a great smoke, I'm hoping her cross works out well too!?

Remo Chemo

 

[Beachwalker]

Caught my first saltwater fish within a hundred feet or so of this Memorial over half a century ago. It was a mackerel & we let it go! :)

 

[Beachwalker]

This particular Indian bubble gum went into the bloom room today, she's got a lot of tops..

She replaced a ripe Indian bubble gum that is currently getting 24 hours of dark, not because I do that on purpose but because I do harvest whenever I can after the dark period.

plus if I'm honest I don't feel like trimming today; 10 hours of up-potting yesterday and I'm good for today believe me! I'm going to lay on my ass and relax all day!

Got to love that Indiana! Does so awesome in crosses also.

I do love it! :) it gives me these Phat puff balls of bud! This is an Indiana bubblegum × Bubba Kush cross. Thanks for checking out my thread

A little more about the plight of my little remo#2, this is her from another grow journal on a different site. I thought I started them a couple years ago but it was closer to 15 months, even though I think I've only run them both once maybe one I ran twice?

number 1 is on the left and number 2 the smaller one is on the right & the picture is before she started to struggle probably taken on the day I transplanted them both into soil

Mood for a day:


This is my favorite beach weather, mostly sunny, mid70's, and there's not much nice beach weather left either, but guess what I'll be doing all day?

Trimming! :/

not complaining I'd rather have bud to trim than not but this Indian bubble gum plant has got a million little puffball buds, heres a few..

 

[Beachwalker]

So 3 and 1/2 hours in, here's a picture of some lower puffballs ..

.. and a song to continue the mood :/

 

[Beachwalker]

done! 6 hours, not bad, this however is a legitimate cramp

notice the index and ring finger and maybe some thumb was involved that time, but this didn't happen from trimming; this started last night in my right hand during a Bocce match.

When (if) you hit my age arthritis just goes along with it :/ but that's the reason for the darker than usual mood at the beach house today

Think I'll run with it..

(I freely admit that I am in ^ love with Margo Timmins)

Dupuytren’s Contracture?

Dupuytren’s Contracture?

Dunno? A couple decades of martial arts in my teens and twenties perhaps

a splint might make it hurt less...that’s a part of treatment. you’ll know when it gets stuck like that

Been doing this about 20 years, usually it'll snap out of it before too long, and I don't have any of that thickening on the palms? :/ I've been told it's from the neck nerve damage from an accident I had in the late 90s? But honestly I don't know? But at least I got the bud hanging! :) LOL!
