I like germinating in the ziplocks; it’s a quick way to decide who gets a personal cup of soil. Failure to produce 1/2 inch tap root results in bench press competition in shared cup or pot.
ahahha I love the reference
Had a long day… morning appointment at dialysis clinic was delayed for 2 hours. I discovered that I must wear a belt to anchor the catheter or the exit wound will not heal completely. I ordered several suicide bomber undergarments and a shower leash from Stickman.
I made it to the imaging center for a Mammogram and bone density scam where a technician informed me to return next year. Before I could gleefully exit she realized there were only 3 days before 2021 begin so I was welcomed to Ye Olde Wine Press.
I arrived home to find a large box of my dialysis cassettes for the artificial kidney at the front door. I missed the UPS man and had to drag the box inside despite the exit wound whining.
I checked my germination ziplocks that I transferred from the cable box to shelf in warm dark closet. No cracks on Skunk 91, 2 cracks on Nepali Temple and 4 of 5 of RSC Turkish have tails long enough to plant.
I have ribs and steak marinating in a ziplock of assorted spices and Sriracha sauce. Tomorrow will be a better day
I sincerely hope so. Best wishes!
The Nepali Temple has not sprouted tails. Skunk 91 has not cracked. I made an error in counting the RSC Turkish seeds; there are 7 and 5 had tails of planting length. I left 2 in the ziplock to sprout roots.
The 5 Turkish are sharing a tray with the 4 Maui Wowie seedlings under T5HO. I have a day or two to pick the next germination candidates
First grow of the Turkish? I’m very interested in trying that one. I haven’t seen anybody grow them yet,
Yes this is my first time growing Turkish. Most of the ones that I planted had dropped their shells in the paper towel. These bamas aint playing
@DanzaKuduro WOW WEE !!! what a great read no wonder it took a couple of days
Two years +
no wonder I ran out of likes about half way thru
thank you for your write up I love your work
all the best and be well
Dequilo
Thank you
The flowering tent was wiped down with LABS after the last Blue Moon Rocks were hung to dry. The Syrian is the sole resident and was watered with LABS tonight.
The next candidates for germination will be (1) a friend’s cross of Girl Scout Cookies x Bubblegum and (2) Lady Cindy by Melvanetics.
Dragon Blood Hashplant male continues to outgrow his nursery pot. I removed dry foliage and cut 6 clones. I dip clones in honey and then plant them in cups of seedling soil. I made humidity dome for each cup using quart ziplock and rubber band.
The Dragon Blood Hashplant male has given off the strongest scent of the 2020 plants. I often keep males that don’t croak after producing pollen. I use them as sentinels for indoor gardens or to make oils, tinctures, quiche, etc.
Nepali Temple seeds planted in one cup; most were cracked but the roots were short. Skunk 91 remains uncracked in its ziplock. It’s going to be a warm weekend and my backyard garden needs cleaning after frost and windy weather.
Enjoying watching @DanzaKuduro , have some MWCB and a couple of BOG going myself!!!
MWCB fem youngsters …
And BOG Sour Blutooth ( rear, each side, female of the 5 I dropped) and 4 unsexed BOG LSD, one recovering from Nitrogen toxicity, un-topped. These six going to 12/12 very soon!
Also following with 4 Monster Banner and 3 Oheloberry fem, in the nursery, soon in veg, 10 days behind the MWCB…
Nice looking plants! My Ohelo Berry did not sprout but I will try it again in next round of germination. Thanks for sharing your work
6 GSC x Bubblegum and 11 Melvanetics Lady Cindy seeds are soaking in ziplocked paper towels. Buckwheat groats and mung beans were soaked to make sprout water. The sprouted grain and beans will be blended with blueberries to make sprouted seed tea for all of the plants.
Skunk 91 seed has not cracked. One of the Maui Wowie has died; it waa Dopey with the root growing skyward. 2 of 5 Turks are healthy, 2 have sprouted leaves with emaciated stems and one is unsprouted. The 3 healthy Maui Wowie seedlings are bending to follow the T5HO. Nepali Temple group cup is asleep.
The seed popping will continue until the Red Tent is fully occupied.
Body count continues … Turk1 and Turk3 fizzled out and joined Dopey in Boot Hill. Half of the Lady Cindy [Melvanetics] are cracked. The Maui Wowie seedlings are growing and the 2 remaining Turks are healthy.
Baby pix of Maui Wowie:
I had appointment with dialysis clinic nurse for monthly blood draw, flowchart of previous month dialysis record, 24 hour urine and sample of dialysate drain fluid. The drain fluid and urine are used to calculate dialysis adequacy or the amount of blood cleaned by current dialysis formula.
Today was a bad day for blood draw; the first draw fizzled out with 3 tubes unfilled. I was tapped 3 additional times before the last tap was successful. I hate getting blood drawn from my hand, especially when the vein is in plain sight but no blood is drawn. I have blood work required by endocrinologist but I will save that for close to actual appointment date. 4 stabbings is enough for one afternoon. Thankful for my Blue Moon Rocks flowers; eased the vein exploration and excavation adventures.
I currently do 9 hours of dialysis daily. That will be increased to 17 hours with a third bag of dialysate called Extraneal. The nurse will give me instructions to modify the currently program on Baxter. I have no interest in being attached to the machine for an additional 8 hours.
I can detach my catheter from the machine after the last fill and walk around with 200 ml fluid. My next session with the Baxter cycler would begin with a drain. I usually have dry peritoneal cavity during the day so it might feel weird but it beats 17 hours dialysis session.
Our kidneys work 24/7; I hope the extra dialysis time improves my energy and strength. I would love to go fishing and be able to handle pots larger than a gallon without a rollator.
The GSC Cookies x Bubblegum seeds are starting to crack. My secret garden and backyard containers are welcomed additions in my life … ignore the compost bins whispering Beetlejuice lyrics in the garage…
Planted 3 GSC x Bubblegum and 1 Lady Cindy in cups of seedling soil and domed with ziplock bags under T5HO. Foliar sprayed backyard container garden and cannabis seedlings with LABS.
