Growing with Cannabis Journal

Already a couple gigs lined up to speak about cannabis, next weekend The Garden Route Cannabis Cup, and in September I will be speaking about cannabis at EarthDance, a major dance and trance event in South Africa. Looking forward to it.

Just got back home from the 3rd Garden Route cannabis cup, hosted in Plett over the past weekend. Besides south africa’s regular turmoil like violent strike action, loadshedding, screwed economy, it was a total success and seems like mostly everyone had a great time, networking, listening to informed talks about cannabis and crowning Canna Porium the best on the garden route with their well grown Blue Dream Skzittles Cake pictured below. What a top strain, crystals everywhere, dark and a smooth dank smoke.

Also great to be back at The Canna Club who kindly hosted me over the weekend. Spent most of my time at their Clubhouse enjoying meeting many different people, smoking some great weed and enjoying good weather.

Part of my talk about overgrowing the system will be a short poem to share with the dancers, hippies, traders and good people of earth.

~Ode to Marijuana~

I fly
High and high
To the reverberation
To the bliss

I fly
High and high
To the goddess
To the serenity
To make love with the unsung hymns

I fly
High and high
With the puff
Pondering Self, the elf
Calming down
When the whiff gulps down
The pain
The body weight

I fly
High and high
To the void
Knowing I am not this
I am not that
Searching the Self, THE I
I fly
High and high

Garden is coming along strong, not much to show but a new pond is in, beds are worked, spinach planted and canna seeds are sprouting. I have been busy with other duties like renovations and getting a cottage ready for tenants, but also the most important time of season, planting. So in the next week I will be busy in the garden transplanting, taking clones and planting seeds.

I have also been busy with cannafam.co.za and also 420ad.net. Both of these are personal new projects hopefully going to help and provide a small income in the future. Dont know if anyone has noticed but we running 420ad.net on growersnetwork to supply the banner adverts.

Just thought I would post an update.

Love this time of year, spring in the step and in the air. Been taking my time in the garden, my worm is finally flowing and makes me so happy. I have just been planting random seeds collected from last year. Transplanted a bunch of mons recently and got them on nutrients and finally rebuilt the garden tea drum which is running 24/7.

Yeah about the only things looking sharp at the moment, but just you wait, I am loaded with organic additives and soil is prepped. I am hoping with a little bit of luck this season is going to be a bumper.

Off to my last event of the year, a soil talk and seed exchange. Wish some of you guys could attend, I am going to do a live stream from 3.30pm (GMT ) , about 3.5 hours time. The soil talk is amazing, a very knowledgeable man talking about soil composition. Also must thank the sponsors biltongandbudz.co.za for the fresh genetics. Have a super wknd everyone.

Its not perfect, but it was a quick makeshift setup after I was gifted these amazing clones. The light is a florescent 100 watt cool white bulb. It was the only bulb that could work outside for now with the current setup. I am going to purchase a solar LED 200 watt soon as this will be my vegging station from now. Been building this little secure garden for a couple months now.

Hey Chrisj!

No worries, we all have those busy stretches. Hope the good projects are shining through!

Revegging flowered clones outdoors sounds exciting. Wedding Cake and Face on Fire are fantastic strains. How’s the progress so far?

Happy growing!


Thanks,

Just past mid winter, not been growing much at all, just a couple plants trying to do their thing in the garden, but, a big BUTT, we are almost ready to start prepping for a top growing season going forward. But here is a picture that has made me happy, from the garden this morning that is filled with chillies, gooseberries, rocket, ginger and a couple male and female plants.

A spiny mantis enjoying the suns rays mid morning. Much needed, its been bloody cold this side. Happy growing and happy days.
