Lots of nice healthy growth.
Nice work, as always.

Hempseed offers a unique nutritional package, in terms of dietary oil, protein, vitamins and minerals, which can be produced at high latitudes ( > 50°latitude). Hemp-seed oil is highly unsaturated and contains both essential fatty acids (linoleic acid and alpha -linolenic acid) in a nutritionally balanced ratio, in addition to considerable amounts of biochemically important gamma -linolenic acid (GLA) and stearidonic acid (SDA). The protein in hempseed is complete, in that it contains all of the essential amino acids in nutritionally significant amounts, and lacks the nutritional inhibiting factors found in soya. Hempseed could become a viable replacement for imported soya in Northern Europe, particularly as feed stock for animals.

Hemp seed is part of my plan to survive the zombie apocalypse. Seriously though, can you imagine how healthy we would be if we ate hemp seed instead corn?

The Ancestral Skunk were getting close to dry, so they got trimmed off the stems and put into paper bags for a day or two, then I’ll do a final trim and jar it up. I’m hoping for around 4-5 oz off these girls. They are starting to develop some more complex smells as they dry.
I got the next two girls harvested from the perpetual: Skywalker OG on the left and Adonis on the right. They both had pretty chunky buds with lots of frosty sugar trim.
The Zak Haze clones really took a long time to get over their transplant shock. I think I over did it with the top dressing. They will stay in veg three more weeks.
These Jilly Bean girls will get thrown into flower instead. I almost transplanted them instead of the Zak Haze, but I didn’t because they had only been in the cups for a couple of days. This works out well though because I had my other Jilly Bean clones (sweeter phenotype) in last, so they will be back to back for a final decision on the keeper.

Nice. I just bought a chapin 1 gallon sprayer last week. I love it, although I’m a little concerned about running compost extract thru it with the tiny (imo) siphon tube.

those buds are looking gorgeous, is the one plant off center to avoid the previous rootball or just how it popped up?

They are both offset to avoid the trunk from the plants just chopped! 2-gal no-till. 
The girls will be getting a malted barley tea tonight. I love the smell of fresh malted barley (usually with hops).

Hey ReikoX, would you be interested in a little collaboration? If you’d be willing to donate some pollen from your Durbans, there’s an incredibly lonely and productive female Durban C99 here at the farm.
We could make some beautiful babies, and give em away free to the masses. 
What do you think?

I think pollen ships easily. I can gather you some, though the early male was already chopped. I’m pretty sure I have one more, and a few more seeds. Let’s make something to give away!

@Worcestershire_Farms, I decided to go ahead and transplant all three of the Durban Poison into the bed, once we have males I’ll take clones and collect some pollen. I may make a few F2, not sure yet.
They look a little stressed at the moment, but should snap out of it in a day or two. Transplanting disturbed the soil more than I would have liked, but it did give me an excuse to check out what’s going on in there. I used a knife to cut the hole, then lifted out the soil rather than compacting it with a trowel. Each hole was crawling with worms big and small. Some soil mites and a couple fungus gnats were all buzzing about, truly a living soil.
My mother’s are due for a trim soon, don’t you think?
I planted a Blueberry seed a few days ago, but its not coming up yet. Ill give it another week or so before planting something else.The clover is, however, coming up now. The SIP is working well, the soil is nice and evenly watered. The cabinet gets water only in the bottom, then gets teas lightly sprayed from the top. I need to fix the elbow on the back, it’s rattling when the cabinet is completely closed.luckily I can keep it slightly ajar for now.

Is that the latest box you just put together? Amazeballs! those are the intakes/outakes for air or maybe a screen attaches? Diggin it.

Yeah it’s the 1x1x2 cab. The intake is the black square it has a DIY light trap over it. The PVC pipes are to provide oxygen to the roots and allow me to fill the “resivoir” on the bottom. It’s basically a mini Soma style bed. The clover seems to like it.

After about a week the Durban Poison plants are finally starting to grow again. The one on the left right is definitely a female, the one in the middle is likely a female, and the one on the right is most likely the male.
Now that they are settled, I put in the screen and began some training. Still nowhere near ready to take clones off of them. This should start to encourage some lateral growth.
The little Blueberry seedling in the 1x1x2 cab finally decided she wanted to compete with the clovers. I’ve been hacking them back to get her a bit more light.

That humidity is way low, surprising with all that soil. The growth will pick up if you bring it up some.

I need to upgrade my humidifier, I bought a single disk fogger, but it struggles to get it up to 50-60% RH. Need to upgrade to the 3 disk fogger. Ambient right now is 15-20%. 37% is pretty good with the door open
