2020 Grow Diary

I’ll be following along to…:v:t3:

I used to fish emulsion when I first planted my 2019 garden. Went in the house to eat breakfast, came out after breakfast and every plant was dug up. I love my dog so all I could do was laugh, cry, start over…:+1:t3::v:t3:

Hey can you tell me how you went about packaging up that gift box you sent a mutual friend of ours??

I was planning to discreetly wrap/package a couple things before dropping off at UPS but yours looks more custom etc…

RSA guy?? You must know Arrow by now…

Certainly do.

We do have plants/herbs like comphrey, mari gold, kakibos, rosemary etc growing inbetween. But dont follow it properly, just grow what we can. I would like to get into that more.

Nice lil’ piece of paradise you got there, brother! Y’all don’t have to worry about lions and other wild animals?

Thank you @Jimjax. No free range lions, but 1 local leopard, rooi cat (lynx), baboons, local pair of fish eagles, thieving gypsey monkeys, owls and deadly snakes to look out for. The last brown hyena was killed about 12 years ago.

But I have been meaning to buy a fake lions mane from ebay for my dog and start scaring the locals of lion sightings. Currently his mom is just making him look cheesy.

Just a quick update on the slow progress in my garden. Can finally say I have mostly female plants, grown outdoors under the sun. Ok so this has turned…

into this.

About 6 flowering females on top of eachother. A couple durban hybrids and some cheese plants that are starting to flower. Also have a couple plants that were grown from clones on my patio, forgot to take pictures of. You can see it is very dry, and we have had some water issues, and not enough water.

This picture is another plant I am growing, I think it could be a black poison from GreenSmokeRoom.com

i do not use perlite it alway come up to the top.i use rice hulls which will decompose in to silica.i use pea size rocks and sand. white on top of soil is not natural. it will catch the eyes of humans.

Sorry I never completed this grow journal. Harvest was not as great as it could have been.

That is very good advice. Perlite does stand out alot, but its easy to get for me. Interesting to learn about the rice hulls! Now how to access them?

Rural relaxed living at its best. We run 3 vegetable gardens and each garden has its cannabis plants. I grow about 30 plus plants per season, not too much space used.

Thanks @LasVegas7 , season is just under 2 months away, so trying my luck with a couple auto’s if you would like to follow.

Most nurseries stocking organic nutrients will have access to rice hulls, it’s a great aeration alternative to perlite, I have started using it this grow :v:

I am right with @chrisj and hold the same stance toward any illegality towards this beautiful misrepresented special plant that is a medicine that saves lives, government has power only when people give them power walk and live with genuine integrity and good intention and nobody has a right to bother another and his business, i have moved from being a protector of the US Flag to a protector of all human right to freedom and sustainable life.
