I decided to go big this year. My mom has a medical card and we were allowed 12 flowering plants. So I slapped them in 100 gallons of soil and grew these monsters. It was an epic year weather wise and we ended up with a nice long season. The caterpillars caused some damage but we ended up with plenty of good smoke. I’ll be trimming on it for the next year😵💫
Dang, nice trees!
Trees for sure.
Location (“General”)??? OUTSTANDING!! SS/BW…mister

If you’re EVER up for trading, I have a Collection of Strains/Varieties that were bred specifically for YOUR area. They’re actually based in your neck of the woods, offerings finishes Mid Sept - Early Oct, resistant to PM, and is ready BEFORE your “Rainy Season”. Food for thought!! SS/BW…mister
Wow, Beautiful!
Them are some good looking trees right der’.
I’m always up for trading. Whatcha got? I need to put a list together of all my crosses. There’s so many. I really liked the tropicana cookies plant this year. It started flowering a month earlier than anything I’ve ever grown. It was done October 1st. Up here the problem is the caterpillars and rain. When you get the caterpillars which I always do that’s where the bud rot starts. I was able to prevent it from spreading by covering them. But everywhere the caterpillars bury in and poop there’s dead material. I’ve decided the plants need netting to keep the butterfly’s from laying eggs on the plants. I threw a TON of material away because it was too moldy to deal with. I tossed a few plants that were prone to mold. I’ve learned some plants can’t be grown outdoors. Sour Bubble is one of them, one rain and the whole plant is moldy in a week. This year it was Maui Wowie from Seedsman which was surprising since Hawaii is very humid. I threw that one in the compost pile first.
That looks fun. Congratulations
You have some beautiful trees there buddy!
Cool. I lived in Portland for a while. Pretty cool city overall, but my favorite parts of the PNW were the wild areas. I’ve also lived in Alaska, which is far from Portland, but still technically part of that region. I got to go to the base of Mt. Hood. Wow. The summit was about a mile straight UP from where I was standing. Just getting there was pretty amazing, too. Miles and miles of Douglas fir, hemlock and cedar with 6 or7-foot trunks that also stood over 200 feet tall. And the fishing (in both Oregon and Alaska) was beyond belief in some places. Pristine streams full of aggressive wild rainbow trout were everywhere.
My wife lived in Alaska (I got stationed at Ft. Wainwright and we got married right before I left) and we got to see a lot of that state. She hadn’t been west of the Appalachians before that. On our bucket list is a road-trip through the Four-Corners area and into the PNW.
Yeah Oregon is definitely a beautiful place especially for those who enjoy what the outdoors has to offer. If you haven’t ever checked out the Redwoods that’s a must see as well. Those stands in Northern California are breathtaking.
