That is amazing, just awesome brother.
Thanks @defharo , @MissinBissin & @THCeed !
Additional awesomeness happening on the harvested side of things:
After some practice I know i have upped my hash game by getting the pasta roller attachment for my standing mixer!
Oven = at 180f “keep warm” setting; roughed hash placed on parchment which is on a tray. Under a minute with a flip softens everything up really well.
I put the mass in between folded parchment paper and then used a rolling pin to flatten out the mass just enough that it’ll pull through the widest setting (8) of the pasta roller attachment.
Once it was thin enough to roll through I do 3-4 passes at each size down to the point I can see the machine struggling. Some hash went down to #2 while this batch only went to 5 before starting to gum up the works due to plasticity stiffness and which is where the paper can start to tear.
When done the smallest setting, I fold over enough times to make up to “8” and then go over again resulting in lamination a plenty getting an amazing blend in the final product. If it got down to “2” I can fold it once making 4, and then that mass once again making 8.
This is the final sheet dialed in at a max 5, so I needed to rolling pin it out again after 1 fold so it would work in the pasta rollers again and only needed to do this twice (3 sessions total) to get an even blend as I had worked this really well by hand the first time round.
Nice and thin, but could be thinner if the material allowed for it.
When satisfied I roll it all up super tight and then temple-ball it by hand getting a nice end result before curing.
This stuff is stiff but still has some yield when squeezed. It’s made up of seed run scrap chaff so I have zero complaints.
Kitchen’s Beware lol
You guys are going to need your own little T.V. show. LOL
RAIN!!! SO MUCH RAIN!!!
I had to put on my riding coat this am to do the rounds or i’d be absolutely soaked! 3 of 4 rain barrels are already topped up just from the last few hours, and the large pond is a few inches taller.
The all look SO LUSH AND DEEP GREEN from the last weeks feedings!
Last week = EWC tea with black-strap
Sat = Chicken shit (top dress) with Fish shit + Humalite K soak
Monday = GrowSilic (Monosilic acid); I’m using the store bought stuff until my SiK is ready end of week.
@Oldtimerunderground , I think the Mighty Mite didn’t reveg and decided to continue flowering after sexing. It’s not sparkly but it is corn-cobbed to heck and the top is showing bud rot…
I’m prob gonna pull it later in the week, wash it and then hand to dry.
The plants are bloody radiant after the days rainstorm!!!

Sadly the Mighty Mite is taking a hit so I snipped off the brown and soaked it in H0Cl.
In the week I’ll cull , trim, 4 bucket wash and hang it to dry.
Everything is taller than me now and I’m 5’ 7" and have ladders so I’m all good.
Have a great night everyone!
I am certainly amazed at the size and health of your plants @Pigeonman
I love where I live but I am envious of that growing climate you are in.
I’d have to agree with that.
I put some plants out early on April 1st here in BC and they are not as big as those monsters that people grow on the east side.
Your plants are amazing looking wow.
Mine ate still little babies
Garden 🪴 is rocking buddy, but then again I would expect nothing less from you!
@SHSC-1 , @chronix , @CADMAN , & @OhNo555 thanks so much for the love!
All y’all are looking at my plants and feeling jelly, yet here I am looking at @THCeed 's plants and feeling the same!
@THCeed I assume you have more than 12" of good soil before the Ontario clay as this is one of the factors that I think is limiting my in-ground plants from getting stupid large.
Clay can be beneficial but it has to get worked a bit. Usually, it’s a drainage issue with the clay, keeping the roots too wet.
Thanks for the kind words, looks like I got lucky again with a couple of big plants this year.
And down can the Mighty Might @Oldtimerunderground . Lesson learned, this one doesn’t want to start to early or don’t revege it cause it doesn’t like that…
Look at the chode of a stalk on this lil beast!
I H202 + Lemon/Baking Soda + Water + Water washed them to make sure they don’t get all fuckery due to the pathogen damage already taken place.
It’s in my drying tent now. A few days down the road and it’ll get into a jar.
They are most certainly liking the home made foods!

Extra nice life thriving in the back by the pond this year.
The garden is happy, which means a lot more labour but it’s with love so whatever
Looking good
How’s that pk doing? Haven’t seen it lately.
@Pigeonman Your back yard is awesome! I can also see that, the homemade fertilizer is doing its thing? They are all praying pretty hard, and the colour seems that much better. I may have too look into making some of that myself. Seems to be doing a great job of making them happy.
I wonder what the stretch is going to be like in your yard?
You may end up with folks complaining from The Billy Bishop Airport, about not having a flashing light on them, so planes can see them!
Those plants are going to be something, and just wait for the harvest!
I am waiting so see them in flower. Your backyard will smell so nice!
Amazing pictures @Pigeonman, yard is always looking fabulously beautiful!
The one from @Crawfish ? Really well! I just took off it’s head and it’s in rockwool with a sea of other friends I’m calling “Team Backup”.
I’ll take a picture later today and share.
Billy bishop is always inundated with fog
This is due to the never ending falling tears of those that bought into downtown Toronto’s condos.
