First was a month ago. They came up healthy, then got really hinky on me. Plants were drooping something fierce, went down one morning and they looks like they were almost dead from lack of water, but they weren’t. Flushed them with about a gallon of RO water with inoculants in it, and they came back, but then did it again for no apparent reason. Been doing this long enough that it wasn’t my watering that was doing it. I have no idea what caused it. (didn’t take any pics, should have) Healthy green, just drooping on all the branches and the top. Still a mystery.
Here we are a month later and all through the droopy phase (hopefully) Trimmed the tops once, and yesterday put them in 8 gal pots and fired up the big light and all 7 fans lol. Supposed to be Asian Fantasy and 100% Sativa, but sure doesn’t look like Sativa to me, looks more Indica than some pure Indica’s I’ve grown.
Outside is starting to get frosty. About 1-2% amber. I was surprised, I didn’t think they were that far along. Got my loupe out this morning and low and behold some amber. Hopefully the weather will hold out for a few more weeks.
Had three days of rain, which we really needed, this summer was extremely dry, only rained like twice all summer and not that much.
Course in a pot that’s not a problem. She is 5 feet from top of pot to tip. Beautiful blue green. The buds are small, hopefully will fatten up in the next couple of weeks. Put her in as a 3" seedling on the beginning of the third week of July.
Looking real good Marty! You were right where you said above that they look Indica more so than sativa. I suppose if they’re finish at eight weeks, you know they’re not sativa.
Been out for a ride lately?
Happy, yep just went on the biggest ride of the year yesterday. It’s called the Rat Run, it’s in Portage De Sioux right on the Mississippi river. About 50,000 bikes. Didn’t take any pictures, cause it would look the same as every other year lol. Been going about 15 years now. Had a ball. There much have been 30 different kinds of pot there to smoke everyone stopping by our canopy to visit. Got totally trashed, not alcohol, just trashed on smoke. Bad ju ju getting smashed on beer, can drive fine on smoke.
Tell me the internet ain’t watching everything you do, this just popped up on my facebook feed right after I made this post about the rat run. Literally 5 min later. This is a picture taken by a two state magazine reporter about 5 years ago. Me, my bike and the lady I took wound up on the front cover of the magazine the same month as the Rat run. Didn’t even know they took the picture until the mag came out the next issue.
