Green curry​:rofl::sweat_smile::rofl::joy::rofl:. That’s great! One more week of madness here and ill be around here more. Always love your pics brother. I don’t recall…did you get an OST female?

@Upstate Yobro! I would have sworn I had one OST female, but I spent hours searching today and all I find is the male that I have been cutting back weekly for over a month now! But while I was at it I hit up a couple lower branches on 2 Baja Blasts…and one whole plant! 2 of the 3 suspected males of the Sherbanger x Purple Punch turned out to be hermies and got the chop. Hanging on to one Tirah Valley male, one Peshawar, 2 Soul Mates and 3 others I forget now!

The Lemon Grove is starting to fill in pretty well, think there are 25 plants in there, including 9 of the faux Mac1 x AVC! There are a bunch more of 'em in the upper greenhouse and more still in the E&F tables.

Everything else is going great guns now! A lot of fked uP fan leaves from the fan damage, but it’s keeping the mold away and nobody’s gonna care what the fan leaves look like! This perpetual harvest thing is kinda fun! Of course the downside is it means the dehu and AC will be running non-stop for months!

Everything else is still in the medium to small bud stage right now… but comin’ on fast!

@Oldtimerunderground

@Budderton

Both of these got lightly seeded on their lowers…

Tomorrow’s Doc Day again and then my RSO crew are dropping by with a new batch. Probably not gonna get much done myself! I noticed the guys have about 150-200 gallons of LS mixed up and about half of it is cooled down enough for use. Managed another couple sessions of trim jail, worked over another of the cotton-candy Durban Venom today. Making progress on the drying tent…but that won’t last! :crazy_face:

Gotta down some dinner and get back to trimmin’! Have a great day!

It’s hard to believe, going by how it’s expressing, that the Lemon Slush is a candied up Gelato cross. Looks like it’s behaving better then last time. I hope you get some of the sweet, candy terps from it. The A New Hope cross should be the opposite, foul and nasty!
All your flowers are looking great TL, try to not get too cross eyed trimming!!

@Tuned Whaaaahooo! Thanks for restoring some confidence in the postal system bro! It’s been a long time that almost everything has been going ‘missing’. So this was extremely gratifying!

More transplants to the Lemon Grove, a few more males & females declaring themselves. The guys now have about 300 gallons of LS mix ready and they’ve probably mixed up double that for the palm transplants in the last week. I managed to pollinate an entire Sherbanger x Purple Punch from @Drsunshinestrains today as well as 2 more Baja Blasts and a whole plant of Soulmate. Think I can see some seed set on the A New Hope x Cobra Lips from @Budderton…same with the Lemon Slush and the SFV x Baja Blast from @BobbyBudz . Other than the Sherbanger, Soulmate & the Baja Blast, which were whole-plant pollinations, there won’t be many beans, but that’s okay! It looks like the male Peshawar Joe and the male Tirah Valley x Peshawar from @Upstate should both be popping balls tomorrow. I’m anxious to cut them, as I got a little carried away with the number of ‘keeper’ males, despite not planning to be making seed! :crazy_face:

Well, time to put @Tuned 's beans in to soak! :pray:Thanks bro!

WoW! A bit of a long story, but interesting…Glad I’m not in it ‘for the money’! Wonder how I can translate this and get it into the hands of the Thai politicians??? Like it’d make any difference! :rofl:

Another hot day! Got a bunch more of the 3 gallon square pots painted white today…would have sworn I just did 100 a few weeks ago! But went to transplant some more Mac1 x AVC and discovered only 3 white pots left!

Lemon Grove is getting full again…we used some of the newly transplanted palms to build up a bit of a visual barrier from the driveway.

Lots of white pots! I’ve been shocked each of the last 3 days at the rate of growth out here!

Meanwhile, in the upper greenhouse… everything’s just cranking away!

Bud-porn…

Pollinated 4 branches of @Upstate 's Peshawar Joe with the Tirah Valley Peshawar. The other Peshwar Joes are tall-ass plants now all well above the 2 m. cages on stilts!! And I used the male A New Hope x Cobra Lips @Budderton on one of the Afgooey’s. The ANH x CL is looking like it’s gonna be incredible but I already seeded three lower branches of it a few weeks back and I don’t have another female…and I’ve got 3 female Afgooey’s, so why not? The remaining Sherbanger x Purple Punch male from @Drsunshinestrains is still going off and I will have to pick something else to use it on tomorrow before I chop it (already pollinated 2 S x PP).

Okay, gotta catch up on some paperwork for a change. Have a great “Get-ready-for-the-weekend” Day!

Whats the scoop here? I started growing my old strain back in 1991 and I’m pretty sure it’s an old blueberry

These were a few leftover seeds of DJ Short 90’s BB, f4 +f5 from @DainIronFoot . I tried running them in a Sea of Green setup in one of the smaller greenhouses earlier this year but the lack of air movement in the small space was too much. Ended up having to chop 'em all when whitefly got too intense. I only have 2 or 3 of them this time and they are quite different from each other. The others (not shown) are starting to foxtail now, but this one I’m quite liking.

Sun’s sinkin’ low and another Sunday goes into the books!

Managed to find room for another 6 faux Mac1 x AVC out in the Lemon Grove. I guess I really DID paint a lot of those pots white! I got no concrete data to prove it, but the plants sure ‘seem’ happier. These are all pretty young but have also all declared as female already.

And a couple shots of the Peshawar Joe’s. @Upstate Hard to photograph 'em where they stand…These girls are drinking up a storm! I’ve been having to really soak 'em with the hose every day now, even with a thick straw mulch layer. Been pollinating another Peshawar Joe, not shown here, with Tirah Valley Peshawar for a few days now…hit the same 4 branches again today

Upper greenhouse looking just fine!

@Budderton

Thanks for all the beans OG!

You’ve got it going on till the break of dawn TL! The ANH x CL looks like it’s making some trichomes for you! And that Strange Fruit x Jokers Candy has an intriguing structure to go along with it’s intriguing name!
Very cool! Seems like the botrytis is not as prominent this season TL, would you say?

Shhhhhhhh! :shushing_face: :rofl: Don’t say that name too loud! Yes, it’s been the hottest, driest time of year and I have managed to keep juggling the plants around so all the thickest budded ones are closest to the hurricane fan. I’ve got a lot of damaged fan leaves from the fan blowing so hard, but I’ve gotten over it! Makes them look a little abused in photos, but they’ll all get plucked/cut off anyway.

Yep, I’m pretty amazed at how much is going on/off here right now! I mean it’s only mid-June! :rofl: Makes me hope we’re far enough out from monsoon season that I’m gonna have time for most things to finish up dry! (Except of course the Sativa’s from Upstate! Even the Colombian Gold x Cobra Lips are budding out already!

The ANH x CL is just looking fantastic! I used some more of the male pollen on the same Afgoey plant today making sure I’ve thoroughly coated about 60% of the lower portion twice now. I can see a few seed on the lowers (of the ANH x CL) but her buds are so thick I don’t want to dig into them to check! There’s a Lemon Slush that’s in the same shape…the nuggets are like rocks they’re so dense! One seed fell out in my hand today (pollinated May 6th) and was dark, hard and fully formed. Probably gonna have to cut her early this week. She’s a much smaller structured plant and either the fan or something else has caused a lot of burnt leaf-tips, but the dense nugs make me think she’s still worth trying over here in the very dry season. :pray:

The Strange Fruit x Jokers Candy came from the Koh Tao gang who said they’d only gotten males so far! I lucked out! I have 3 more now in 2 gallon airpots and hope they perform as good as this one. Yeah, the bud structure is amazing. Can’t say I’ve ever grown something quite like it. That top cola is about 2’ long and is composed of giant 4-5" tall and 5" diameter buds all the way up the stem…and there are like 5 main colas only slightly smaller. I was plucking some fans off of her before sunset and just rubbed my eyes…BIG MISTAKE! 555!
