@beuffer420 - Here we don't drink out of a tap or drink the water that they serve at restaurants. Unless you like birth control and prozac with your water.

@snowboarder396 - Where have you been? I am good. Plodding along in the dirt still! I do think some of the equatorial sativa strains are C4. Not sure though. I was trying to locate some info about this and was unsuccessful. As for praying, the plant is changing the angle of the leaves to reduce the light incidence angle. You will also notice that strains from low sun areas have darker leaves where the "gold" sativa strains always seem pale. Under intense light the dark leaves would get too hot. So hot weather plants are pale, thin leaved, long node, slow growing girls.

@FLkeys1 - Jurple - the winter cold medicine (VapoRub)! I can't wait to hear the smoke report. I wonder what the cured smell will be? The Bubblegum pheno of Mulanje smelled like cat piss when it was drying!

@BobBitchen - The LACon is starting to get that old school pine smell I remember from the '80s! I was pruning some fans away to expose the flowers and the seeds to more sun. I started with the LA Con and finished with the SOG BX. My fingers smelled like penny gumballs! Thanks for the gumball Mickey!

It definitely looks like a storm is coming today. Stormageddon 2014 is expected to hit starting tonight. I hope it is done by 9 AM tomorrow. I have a long drive ahead of me.

Found some slugs in the trash babies last night. Today the plants are looking so much happier! Time to get out the copper tape.

Cheers,
Mo
So you're still going up North ? Have fun & drive safe bro

Jurple is staring to smell like peppermint and a hint of pineapple and lemon.
It's interesting because it does not give off a lot of a smell until you touch it or bump it. Pretty much all the big fan leaves have gone from purple to yellow and have fallen off. I check the trichomes each day and at about 90% cloudy today. Lots of pistols have died and curled but she is still putting out new ones..

Have you ever grown this strain in the ground?? I am thinking this is going to be the strain I plant and grow outside next summer..course that will also depend on how the smoke is..

Only grown it in a container with soil. She should be amazing as an outdoor bush. I may give that a try as well. I just want to know whether she is as good of a medicine as she is a plant!

@ MO, Life happens. I have been busy last few months. Kinda like last fall when I disappeared for while. You'll notice that I will disappear for a few months at a time sometimes. Mostly during the fall. Busy with life, school, and work. The fall is harvest season for the wine industry, and gets extremely busy with long hours and days all fall. On top of going to school. Nice to still see some familiar faces around.

how is the garden going and the greenhouse? BTW how you guys finally liking that rain you're getting? I know you guys done in Cali have needed it bad.

Last winter we didn't get much rain but it was perfect for growing sativa. This year we are going to get soaked. Back in the 1800s there was a flood of CA where the entire central basin was flooded 8 feet deep. Killed all of the livestock and crops. We get more rain here than most people know. It usually comes in February and lasts two weeks. 2015 should be an interesting year!

I have been breeding some dank phenos and making some BXs. I grew a nice crop of Blue Dream and LA Con that was favorably received. Got laid off in July and have been working on many projects since then. The interviews are finally starting pour in so I think the future is looking bright :)

Cheers,
Mo

Yeah, I know at least from what I have heard a majority of Cali has been in a severe drought since last winter. We were wondering how certain crops were going to make it. Vineyards didn't even have water allocated to them down there until just after the growing season started and it was a limited amount at that.

Sounds good. I will have to scroll back through try looking at some your pics and find those greenhouse pics you were working on. What other Breeding projects have you had going on?

Thanks for the info @beuffer420 . Sometimes, just once and a while my leaves will get like that and I just love it! it looks like the plant is so happy and it makes me so happy to see it. I really would like to see all my plants doing that all the time. But it sounds like your feed protocol is very sophisticated and a bit over my head.
It's really quite simple buddy. Use super coco, no need for food in veg and hit with photo plus every other water. In flower I top feed with three bags from roots organic every two weeks and every other water with the photo plus nourish l yield enhancer and amono bottle. Mix all together 5-6mls a gallon and boom.

Cannabis camping. Like herding cats to get anything done.
Luckily there were plenty of helpers when we broke everything down and loaded it up in DoubleJJ's truck.

Worst part for me is that I am on a diet and there was so much amazing food! I did have some of the roast beast and I snuck a couple pieces of Fumble's banana cake.

I lost 10 pounds since I started!

40 more to go!

It was so much fun! I finally got to get baked first thing in the morning on Saturday! JJ, Fumble, TWS, Nuggs, Grandpapy, Adower, S'Manta, TMB, and a few other who will go unnamed made me feel right at home. Brought back some Animal Cookies and MK Ultra clones, various seeds, Fumble's magic cooking, and a few flowers. I got to teach more young brilliant farmers the wonder of landrace sativa as a morning pick me up. It was so cold I had to put my hash ball jar on the fire ashes to warm it up. The jar smelled amazing after heated and blew their minds. One of them nailed down the smell as being cedar.

So much to talk about but I am going to be going dark (yeah sure you are) for a while until the holidays are over. The honey do list is getting scary!

Job front is looking great. I may be gone for a year. We will see what happens.

Cheers,
Mo
