When camping off season I fill a Nalgene with boiling water and put it in the foot of my sleeping bag.

digging the plant pics guys… gonna be some sticky harvests!!!
@Foreigner we have taken hot rocks from the fire and stacked them under our cots in extreme cold on hunting trips. That works quite well if you get some decent sized ones warmed up. I have lots of rocks and a big firepit to heat them before placing in the greenhouse with a dolly… but we are under a fire ban here and looks like it will remain until at least the end of the month.
Just cleaning up some pics and I’ll post them up. Flowers are forming fast now and if I was looking at indoor plants I would say in the week 4 kinda stage. They stopped stretching almost a week ago so I figure that to be the end of week 3 I suppose.
It still is hard for me to wrap my head around why those plants so far south of me are so much further along than mine. I would figure my daylight hours would be getting shorter sooner up here at 52N and that would trigger mine before those down at lower latitudes. I am at pretty much 3000 ft elevation so maybe that is the reason? A conundrum I can’t wrap my stoner head around LOL
Fall comes in a blink here and the trees are starting to yellow, heavy dews in the morning and we have had 2 light frosts. A storm came thru yesterday dropping sheet rain and lightning. I guess a few km away and slightly higher elevation they got a light dumping of wet snow which melted by evening but it’s a sure sign of things to come.
Praying for as many sunny days as Ma Nature can give me. 2 week forecast calls for mostly sunny days, highs 16/17C and lows of 5/7C which could easily translate to lows of near zero where i am at. Fun times!!

k let’s dump some pics from the 13th
first up the non Strawberry hill stuff
Blueberry Muffin clone
From @Great_lakes_Genetics freebies are those two awesome Dubble Sour Diesel x GG4 Auto… not sure when these will finish but they are changing to the final push it seems.
Then the seeded Long Valley Royal Kush #5
Kinda hard to see but there are still ample predators at work in the greenhouse which is nice to see.
took some flower pics to show some contrast. It seems that we have green flowers on most but one in particular has been flowering with pinks and purples since the beginning. There are a few more with slightly pink/purple forming but not like this one. I do notice that all the ones expressing purples/pinks at the pistils are also showing the same leaf morphology and all of those ones are red petiole leaves. All the plants with just green petioles have just green/white at the pistils. Will be interesting to see how this develops/changes at fall progresses. I also wonder if it is just genetic or am I seeing the colors due to something the plant needs… anyways here’s some pics.
here are a few whole garden shots from the middle kinda , one looking back at the door, one looking back at the shed
and lastly… my new pet. He just doesn’t seem to want to leave the yard. He’s been feasting on my uncut lawn and seems to switch between the dandelions and the sapling aspen leaves. I get so close to him now I could damn near pet him LOL
till next time !!
p.s. Ris and I are working on a joint auction for the site , probably next month I guess. So keep yer eyes peeled

Looking great brother. Love this time of the year when all the flowers are getting ripe outside.
Those auto flowers are looking great too. Looks like I should start giving them out as freebies???

ya I think the auto flower growers will like those for sure. I am a novice when it comes growing autos and I think I left all the other autos i grew this run in the solocups a bit too long. The tonygreen and adam&eve GG4 F4 and F5 autos stayed small but the flower is really nice. Flavors on the F5 are more pronounced on the GG4 scale and all of them from the f4 and f5 have excellent potency. Those Dubble Sour Diesel x GG4autos… they were big seedlings compared to all the others and that continued despite my innexperience with autos. I’ll know better when I smoke these but I definately think you have a winner in this one. Imagine what a seasoned autoflower grower could do with these eh?

ya she sure got big in @Pigeonman 's garden eh?
So excited to see how she finishes for you
I have to measure mine to see how tall the biggest ones are but 3 or 4 of them are easily over 6ft not including the totes they are in. I had to tie a string to pull one of the tops over so it won’t hit the greenhouse roof slope LOL
Starting to develop some nice trichomes the last few days… hopefully I am at the half way mark… getting chilly at night here but still real nice day time temps.

One week left for the 30% off sale at GLG
Been busy over here getting ready for the first hunting trip of the season but I took a bunch of pics I’ll add later. Everything is looking good and they are pushing trichomes now as they start to fatten up. So far the weather, while not ideal , is still cooperating for the most part although the forcast calls for freezing temps overnight this weekend. I just need 3 more weeks… maybe 4? Guess we will see.
So far no molds or mildews and everything looks as healthy as can be considering they have not been fed anything but water.
I’ll be back after dinner with pics

Nice!
I’m in fuck soup. Solid rain for several days… I just got back inside from cropping, trimming and then washing the bulk of the shikaberry in the pouring rain as the buds were so soaked from just the day that I could squeeze out water. Deeper inspections show the start of browning so I’m hopeing I just caught it in time and the H202 + Lemon Juice/Baking Soda wash snuff the pathogens.
H0Cl is magic, but magic can’t even stop this level of fuckery.
Looking forward to your pics growmie!

Man the rains suck eh?
I grew in a big blackberry patch in one of our provincial parks years ago down near sea level and it was always a concern when the fall rains came.
Up here it is the day night differential that makes for really heavy dew and because of the geography and elevation, it often rains overnight. The greenhouse keeps that dew off the plants and as long as the fans are running as soon as the day starts to warm above 10C , the greenhouse humidity is not too bad.
That’s gonna change though as the next few weeks will no doubt see a major change in temperatures. Fingers crossed we have another warm fall like last year.
Let’s get some pics rolling
Here are the autos @Great_lakes_Genetics sent with one of my orders. These were made by dragboatjeff so I’m happy to provide any feedback I can. These really impress me and smell really good. Flowers really filled out and are chunky all the way to the bottom. Chopped one today and the other will get the chop tomorrow.
Then there is the Long Valley Royal #5… this plant was pollinated with the two males from last years LVRK seed hunt. I may have to move her indoors to finish properly so the cold weather doesn’t cause issues with the seed health. Gonna decide on that the next few days.
Then there is the Mystery Plant which I thought was a Shishkaberry cross or something but seeing as how it has literally just started flowering… Must be something else like a Biker cross maybe? Whatever it is, it looks awesome but is not gonna survive to show us what she is. Gonna just leave her be for novelties sake but she will get the axe once the frosts come.
She is over 8 feet tall LOL
and last of the Non Strawberry Hill stuff … the Blueberry Muffin clone
be back with a bunch of Coastal Blueberry pics
