Thanks for the love @Cummings420 . I had a great day and it’s still going, I hope the same for you!
My Salvia Divinorum plant is finally doing better after months of babying it in the upstairs bathroom. This room is at 16c right now (60.8f) and it often gets colder but I’m gonna turn up the heat come snow season to keep it around this temp because Mother Salvia is coming back looking sharp.
The sheen on the most recent set of leaves lets me know she is feeling better about being here permanently. Every AM she gets a misting and I check her soils saturation. It’s getting bigger and I hope it starts to fill in more.
I’ll start making cuttings when she is bushier and then start to fill this room with small SalvD plants.
I’m really happy with this hoop light with clip i got off amazon. The amount of diffusion in place works really well for indirect sun plants versus my usual light cannon method.
They hadn’t been addressed in a few months so it was packed with foliage. Lots’ of micro snipping and tired eyes after the hours doing it.
2 - Up-potted
The thing is that I didn’t have a single one of these dairy-related tubs ready so I had to search the house for any one I could spare and then went at them with the soldering iron turning them into plant-pots.
Fun bonus for delaying all this is that I have 50lb of rice hulls now for everything to get an amazing top-dressing!
3 - H0Cl treatment
Just in-case.
4 - Feeding
They need to grow more roots and replace all their leaves at the same time so I felt feeding was necessary.
This took about 4 hours and I lost track of the time because of garden-dancing throughout the process to these mixes:
Hope y’all are having a great night! Unless it’s day where you live… then have that!
I delayed all this by a month and some of the cultivars are not happy with me. they buck-up due to the added soil and stress to both their roots and foliage.

Water Lettuce & Duck Weed (Tank), Cardamon Ginger, Jasmine (Jar), Mugwort (jar) & several cuttings of other plants I can’t remember there are so many lol.
Funny thing happens with this much biomass and the winter…
…I have baseboard heating which dries the air but the plants transpire increasing the humidity. I’ve passed the point of diminishing returns so I have to monitor the house’s RH% and vent upstairs every now and then
I’ll eventually invest in another AC Infinity unit which can auto vent outdoors from upstairs when the RH% hits 70%.
The inside of your place gets above 70%??? Holy crap!! That’s insane! How do you stop mould?? Both in your bud and in any corner of your place? That’d be brutal
This is just one room. A bathroom with no ventilation. (1960’s home so some standards still don’t exist here until I install them). Most of the house is 55-65% and I have Thermometer/Hygrometer cobo units everywhere due to OCD so I can address any RH% before concerns about mould.
This last spring our AC had a bad sensor due to the RH in our attic and the house had no AC for a while and it hit 30c in our bedroom on average. I needed to deal with spot treating problematic areas for mould with vinegar and h0cl while sweating buckets.
I’m 10 minutes from Lake Ontario, the wind often coming off the lake and since i’m on a cliff the clouds often are just above my house instead of the height they would be if you were on the water.
The plants in the tents have lower RH because of the active outdoor venting where I grow. The basements RH is in the low 40’s because of a dehumidifier and 3 active venting tents.
The problem area is our top floor which pools due to a very waterproof roof membrane and inadequate roof venting under the eaves.
Usually in fall it’s cold enough that the baseboard heaters cancel out the humidity… but it’s Nov 20th and it’s 94% humidity outside with drizzle and it’s 10c.
A few hours ago it was full on Silent Hill outside. Normally it’s snow by now but fuck me eh?
bodhi’s? i’ve wondered about that strain for years after seeing it for sale from bodhi. also, i’m not sure how i missed your thread, setting to watch now.
Yep! I did an F3 open pollenation run with 3 breeders F2’s: DocD, MMS and Strayfox.
Looking forward to seeing what folks do with them as the plant is fucking rad!
Thanks bud shit gets weird here in a good way lol.
There are so many threads I’m struggling to keep up with the ones I know and always feel the FOMO for things I’m missing out so don’t fret bud you’re here now for the wackiness!
they buck-up due to the added soil and stress to both their roots and foliage.
. That I can see anyway, haha
