The Forest Treehouse - CannabisSequoia's Growing Again :-)

1/8/23 update - RIP @oleskool830, a model OG citizen :trophy: and really cool dude

I had to give up my carport because the wind known as a ‘Kona low’ took my silly popup canopy & threw it 10’. :unamused: Surprisingly only broke one segment so it can be mended & re-used. The dogs liked having it. :blush:

The plastic & wood & screws plus plenty of extra was about 300$, as opposed to over a grand to set up a stout greenhouse… & I just need to finish this last run so I can take a break when the rainy season begins.

Right now I’m about to chop Sour Dubb x Snow Lotus BX from @GrowHard - smells of sour & bubblegum, small airy buds starting to foxtail at day 64. Mixed resistance to septoria amongst 3 plants.

Recently harvested @Scissor-Hanz’s Tangie x Orange Sunshine & it’s great :+1: A bit leafy but those are all resinous AF. Fair tradeoff. :joy: Another winner, sir.

The Ancestral Skunk just plain sucks. :man_shrugging: Like 1%THC & no smell. Good for cats. :laughing:

Here we have Skunk Dawg & the Maui Jane stuff at day 22(1 plant at 28)…Royal Oil, Skunk Dawg BX 1 & 2(actually out-crosses)*, Grape Sherb fem*. The smells kinda suck IMO except for the Skunk Dawg itself. It’s truly Skunky with no chem, maybe some cheese or BO in the background, no chem, but plenty of skunk. I will be looking into some BX2 seeds from Matchmaker Genetics(nearby) since my STS project only produced nanners, no pollen.

The second pic shows what I have to do when it’s breezy; all that perlite is great for moving plants but the wind agrees :confounded: and most of them have fallen over at least once…onto the buggy lawn. Hate that shit. Lava rock in the bottom solves it mostly, but ironic that I have no gravel pile ATM.’

As to what to grow & how to grow next year… shit, it’s been a battle adapting to the humidity & rain. The pest pressure has been lower than California was, at least for now, but the fungal issues are outta this world compared to Sacramento’s 9% RH days…

At first I thought some combination of terpenes/etc. was the key to resisting budrot, hit my head against the wall a bit, looked to what actually grows in this kind of climate, looked at landraces & :grimacing: yikes those are not the weed I been smokin’. It finally clicked after listening to the Indian Landrace Exchange’ interview with Heavy Dayze/Potcast & checking out all the great pics on his site(fullpowerselections dot com) … those folks primarily harvest the resin into hash :man_facepalming: & burn the bushes for mosquito control :laughing:

So that’s depressing; I can’t handle & don’t desire hash throughout the day all day every day. But I DO need medicine that often & I like flower. The solution isn’t those wispy beans-on-a-kabob-skewer landraces, but somewhere in between… to dial back the weed clock to the late 80s to mid 90s & explore those strains. Stuff with grape size buds, plenty of spacing & not too dense, but not so airy & tiny as to be a hassle.

My seed collection is still pretty good. I will keep adding but my real desire is to grow the whole collection out. That’s way more braggable than having a bean horde, IMO.

I recently bumped into @dragonsflamegenetics here on OG(thanks again man) & he’s confirmed that growing here is a m’f’n PITA so I feel a little better about myself :sweat_smile: I had a feeling it’d be basically indoor-only & require a massive solar upgrade investment to grow like I did in the sun back home. And I hate indoor & growing indoors only when I have too. The struggle goes on. :pensive:

Poor eyesight from smoking too much cannabis…eyes can’t stay open? :man_shrugging:

I’m just one person, but I smoke 4x what most do, so 40 plants is reasonable, if I count myself as 4 patients. Multi-dimensional reality. :white_check_mark:

Yeah. The Hawaii medical law is totally restrictive nanny state BS… & the proposed recreational changes that have some people rubbing their palms don’t look any better.

These 50 seeds won’t go past 1 gallon pots for this round.

I have a few plants that are doing this.
I think its from a timing disruption i had. Everything has been in veg, but random dark periods when moving plants caused them to switch towards flowering for a couole days, then back to veg

Awesome haven’t seen those around in a while. Let me know if you have any trouble with it, if germ rates are low or if you have problems with it at any point int he grow I’ll send you replacements.

I still owe you for taking care of the fundraiser shipping and packaging so let me know if there is anything else you would like for your grow.

Most of my stuff is bred for hardy low maintenance outdoor growing. I have indoor lines too, and I have a lot that I bred outdoors from strains that also perform well indoors.

I bred some ISP 91 dragons
(lanai hawaiian x chinese broadleaf) x (chem 91 x 70’s hash deal afghani)

Pure f2’s and outcrosses. Might be fun to give those a shot on the island.

4/29/23 update

Red Cherry Berry F3 in smartpot, just flipped, about to get heavy pruning. Has the smell I want but let’s see what the flowering does. :man_shrugging:

Made some “cup holders” & now have a bunch of circular seed shippers. :laughing:
They aren’t as pretty as @Mr.Sparkle or @ReikoX (wtf am I thinking!? :sweat_smile: ) but sure beats moving 44 solo cups around & watching them suffer from wind & stupidities.

44/50 seeds 12 varieties. :+1:

I’ll leave these in the cups until they sexy-fy & then to 1 gallon for finishing. Should be enough :herb: & less stank than big plants. My last run had everyone smelling it, mostly due to the Skunk Dawg which is very skunky. There are NO skunks in Hawaii so the smell is a 100% giveaway here. :joy: :rose:

Bro I need to get you some seeds sent over. I’ve got some decent fems I can send your way if you want?? Purple Stardawg, moby dick #2 and some runtz. You need to start growing fems only as over there as every seed has to count.

:joy:

I always wanted to fill a whole 50 site tray!

you psychic m’fer-- of course 44 seedlings isn’t enough!

…was just this moment thinking about my collection, & do I want to GROW that, or just SMOKE it?!? :man_facepalming: … most of them, the answer is: just smoke if I could. :man_shrugging:

Your recent Purple Stardawg plant sure did look nice… the kind of plant that could go to one’s head… :rofl: in both ways. I would add that to the library but am doing my best to say no to more seeds.

I spent so much on BuildASoil(doh!) for OGer Wuachuma that I won’t buy more seeds until next year. I swear. It is so written. :blush:

Also weirded me out with your air-fryer marriage(tryst?) – more synchronicity with my buddy who loves ‘Plebs’. Probably loves @Ghandisflipflop too :rofl: I may send him to Manchester & you can meet the twin your parents left on the bus coming home from the pub & veterinarian, i mean hospital… :hugs: :joy: :fries: :tv:

Funny you should mention @Ghandisflipflop. I was with him on Thursday along with my cousin and had a few drinks to celebrate my birthday. Obviously chemicals were involved and @Ghandisflipflop had a bunch of shrooms he’d grown :roll_eyes: had a great night watching the floor waving about :rofl:
My cousin has one of them philips ambilight tvs that light up different colours behind the TV so that just enhanced the experience :v:
