Right on man! Nice crib. I live outside of Trinidad at 6,400’. Lots of friends live at 8,000’ and their pot grows better than here almost. I keep them going with seeds.
Your girls look great. I’m guessing you’ve been getting some of this excess rain this year? Looks like it. Mine look the same way. Not a brown leaf or spot anywhere. I sort of hope it starts drying soon for the flowering. That’s the norm here. Dry fall. peace
The sun is so intense here, I can set plastic pots outside at no more than 80F and they are melted within an hour. Happened last year in early June and I got a pic:
Thank you for the compliment (and for all the others too)! We are very fortunate that the fires didn’t get any closer.
I am lucky if I can get some of them to October. The Tahoe is very frost tolerant, the best in the garden so far. It still puts out good results even with cold September temps. I have harvested it in 6 inches of snow before and the buds were good (for outdoor).
The Slurricane seems to be winning the Fast Finisher award, but I am just testing these two types this year. The second one has more dense bud structure, so it is the one I kept for further R&D.
I am letting the Alien Kush and Big Fuck haze go this year (not keeping the clones) just because they are slightly more sensitive to frosts, but still deliver decent results. I have a few more seeds of each so I may revisit later. I really just need less plants to work with to open up room for more plants to work with.
Thank you! After growing here for over a decade, I concur with this assessment. New Mexico is an incredible place to honor the medicinal plants. The short season is not ideal, but with the right strains, powerful results can occur.
Amazing plants in a unique environment! Im only up about 2500 ft or so but Ive definitely noticed a possitive difference between where Im at now and maybe a mile away before? The altitude helps for sure…after seeing yours, now I feel like Im on a little hill though, time to move again…lol…Happy Mountain Growing and may your season be Heavy!
Starting to get into the fall for sure now. I saw 32.9F on the thermometer yesterday morning, but today is a more reasonable 41F.
The Slurricane has put on a nice purple show. The Tahoe OG is really starting to ripen up and has dominated the aromas I can smell on the opposite side of the house. It is really hard to describe the smell because it’s just so unlike everything else.
The Alien Kush (behind the Slurricane) is smelling amazing, I am sad I didn’t clone her again this year, but I need to move on to other things.
TK NL5 Haze / NL1 “Big Fuck” - I call it Alaskan Bigfoot Haze, is in the back. It’s a little behind on ripening yet, but it will get there.
