Crownpoodle's 4x4

Thanks @MoBilly . Just having my 1st cup. Trying to wake up. My oldest granddaughter’s birthday party is today. As you can imagine I am quite excited. Big family BBQ. My blended, extended family is the real deal.
We’re picking up her cake from the Madonna Inn. Famous local place known for Black Forest Chocolate cakes. A bunch of the rooms are themed. Kinda cheesy, but cool too.
There’s some insane, hand carved railings and bannisters in the main lobby area. My old neighbor Frenchy, RIP, WW I vet, was a master woodcarver and did much of the work.
I am grateful for much…

My oldest granddaughter Nora. She’s fricking cool. I love spending time with her. She looks forward to time with us. She just lights up whenever I remember we’re getting closer to her being 16 and driving. Told her she’s my new chauffeur.
We’re super tight. I am grateful.

Hey @MoBilly . Sitting outside. Suns out. Smoked enough for the moment. Mostly feeling the afterglow I get, you too I think, of being around good people. Yesterday’s birthday party was stellar! Visiting with mostly family. Close friends. Solid group. I’ve been around this group a lot.
To get that good feeling I don’t find it necessary to be with people I know. I’d bet $ you find those folks playing music.
I need to decide what to do with the plants in the 3x3. No room in the 4x4 for at least 6 weeks. Guess I’m going to have to flip the 3x3 before they get too big. I’ll see if the need much defol. If the do, I’ll address that, give them a few days then flip. Some cool varigation on one of the SLP x RAB.

Good day brother! You’re rocking those tents. The 3x3 is stocked. I look forward to seeing those in full splendor.

Happy belated birthday to your granddaughter. Sounds like a you held a blast of a party with some hearty folks. And a cake of fire! My kind of party.

Be well my friend.

One more shot @Kind024 . These are clean below 15" now. I’ll clean them up again about week 5-6. I’ll see what the girls tell me to do. I like to take the big fans that are left, anything with enough stem to snap the leaf off easily, about a week before the chop and hang.
2nd time I’ve run these Air-Pots. #5, which is 3.6-3.8 gallons. I’m undecided on if I like them. Can’t be in a hurry, or they’re messy. I’ve seen someone grow some nice big plants in small Air-Pots. Aspen maybe?
