Sounds fun hap…I’ve been working with different iterations of the formula for about 5 years while perfecting it, and all along it has seemed to perform similar across all species. In fact most of my sensitivity testing was done on ornamentals …

Man @happilyretired your garden is always epic! One day im gonna be able to grow outdoor. Still trying to find a place to buy that has land. Found some nice places but damn rural and populous is only 500-2500 thats too country for my wife. Looking in Tennessee, Michigan, Illinois. Looking at 4 bedroom 2300+ sqft on 2-5 acres at about $268k-$300k. And congrats on the mod promotion brother.

Right back at you on the MOD promotion. I guess it’s from all the years of landscaping the various houses I’ve owned and the vegetable gardens I grew when I was a kid with my dad and that the ones that I grew with my kids and so on makes the outdoor challenges easier for me then the indoor ones. 
… or maybe it’s the fact that you can grow a plant as big as you want, or the fact that once you’re set up at cost almost nothing. Biggest expense is your IPM. I don’t know…BUT… so far my indoor stuff looks much prettier. And it is a great distraction to get me through the winter months. I just need to figure out how to do it. I’m going to give rock wool one more go, meanwhile trying my hand using cocoa and some pots with some auto flowers. I will use my waist from the rock wool to feed the auto flowers. I will continue to use Rockwool for mother plants. It does make that very easy.

Well couple of days ago I was picking a few leaves to do my normal bug watch, and I spotted this guy munching down a mite.
The next six pictures are two M&Ms and a ATF that are coming down first thing in the morning.
!
The next three are gonna be ready for a while yet I think the candy store will be first in about two weeks the lemon thunder is right behind it. I have no idea how far out the sour diesel is going to be.

I see so many people looking at trichomes and looking at buds wondering when it’s time to harvest. Mostly newer people. These two buds are between two and three weeks apart from harvest. These two plants have similar buds Brookshire structure. The top one is ready now and so is the bottom one. The difference is One is a lot more ready than the other. There is not a huge difference in there trichomes at this point but there is a whole Lotta difference in the bud structure. The flower on the bottom will undoubtedly get you just as loaded, One of the differences is it won’t have much staying power. You have to keep smoking to stay loaded. It is also going to be very airy when it is dried. The top flower is hard as a rock you squeeze on it and it doesn’t squish. 2 1/2 weeks ago it looks just like the bottom picture. So looking at your trichomes is not the only indicator. Just because they look like they are mostly ready pushing a little bit further will give you more density and weight.
