MMM MMM those are fucking dank looking!

If your looking for good lean meat - any of the commercial breeds do. Stay away from the pot bellies, Guinea Hogs, and kune kunes and you will be fine. Duroc, Hampshire, Berkley, tamworth, old spots are all good lean meat pigs.

I know there will be couple Hampshire's at the sale, maybe I will grab them.

And thanks man. Those pictures were taken last night. Here is the blueberry grapevine I decided to chop last night. I'm running low on meds and it had to be done. 55 days flower with mostly cloudy trichs. Diesel berry aroma.

@mushroom head its killing me to let this headbanger and wheres my bike keep running as I am fucking out of meds and out of money to buy any . I just made a chocolate cake with 80 grams of avb. Just ate a HUGE piece; this shit better be strong!! Maybe 1 or 2 more weeks if I can handle it

Sometimes it's gotta be done man! I have another dozen plants that will be harvested within the next few weeks. I picked my least favorite plant to chop early. This blueberry grapevine has some of the worst bud form I've seen.. buds that grow in clumps not even colas, would be a mold magnet outdoors.

Is the gorilla glue x blueberry lotus from me worthy.of rerunning?

Those are my only 2 flowering and I really want to see them ALL the way through, but such is life, will have more done in 1.5 - 2 mos so no worries

I'd say so man. I flowered it a little early as I'm very excited to try it, no one around here has heard of gorilla glue. I plan on re vegging it after I harvest.

I'm trying to decide what I'll be running in the flower room next. Kind of temped to pop some of these blackberry jabba nirbirus.

 

[papapayne]

For sure. The BBK x nb is definitely stellar smoke. I just popped 10 wet dreams x sour cherry, and my homie @DLOPEZ1420 squared me away with some blackberry Jabba x prime moonshine, I plan on popping all those to. Brings my breeds up to....to fucking many. Lol. It's a sickness. Got another patient that just processed their paperwork to list me as a grower, and I'm gonna pay my boys fees from cali to get his ommp. Full up on cards now!

Whew, page 100 papa. Learned some good stuff going through this. Probably can't do a screen room like Mo, or your new greenhouse, but a smaller hooped greenie would work for me. Doc does some damn fine building, TMB opened me up to some ideas that would work well here in the high desert. Just the stuff that stands out for me in my area.

Got to catch up on Some Guy now, like some stuff on his grows that I have thought about before. But all still depends on if I get happy feet again, lol. Trying to stay home. 53,lived and worked outside these United States 27 of those years with US Military folks. 16 pages easy to manage now. Good luck with the farm.

Thanks for your service.


And definitely lots of great knowledge on here!


Just to clarify though, doc and I no longer have any ties or associations to each other's enterprises. He's doing his thing, and I'm doing mine.


Do you have a thread going? If so, mind throwing the link up? I love seeing how people tame the more inhospitable climates, and always fun following along.


Stay free stay high

No thread yet, once I know I'm staying. Only back 4 months. Prior service too!

 

[papapayne]

I feel ya. If/ when you do, be sure to post it up.

Will probably be an indoor organic grow when summer is over. I've been through the hydro indoors and know what heat can do, lol.Got 1 seedie in pot outside now. High winds knocked it over lol.

Thought I had it deep enough where that wouldn't happen, but the wind showed me! Put some aloe on it and packed some soil around it, seems to be still growing. Will know for sure by weeks end.

I just ordered 200 giant Cornish cross chicks, they will be here on May 27th.

@mushroom head That's a lot of meat birds Have you raised them before? A neighbor and us used to split orders of 25. Butchering was a long day with the four of us. We would get all females, raise 'em 8 - 10 weeks; they were averaging 5# finished. They eat a ton of feed - it's all they do: eat and shit.

Heck ya! We did 100 last year. We have a big fenced off area they will be able to free range in during the day. We start em on organic feed when they are small then they get a lot of their food from the land, they love grasshoppers. And we do all the butchering ourselves as well.

yea, my flock at its biggest was like 35 and was going thru feed like mad. atleast 50# every 10 days - 14 days. Now down to 13, and a much more manageable number. (have Dominique, Rhode island reds, orthington, and silver laced wydotte) I was leary of the Cornish birds, but after seeing the tiny breasts my heritage breeds made, I will prob do a dozen or two this year. Gonna use my 8' bison/game fence and make hoops for them kinda like my mini-greenhouse also a dozen turkeys this year is on the agenda. Figuring on getting all those in june. I want to make one of those washing machine pluckers first though

 

[mushroom head]

They fattened up nicely last year and I hardly fed them at all.. I'd watch em eat grasshopper after grasshopper lol I think that was their main diet. Had my buddies dog out at the farm last year and he murdered most of my chickens.. have to make sure that doesn't happen again.

yea, even the best dogs kill chickens...the way they run just triggers that prey drive.

 

[mushroom head]

Hopefully I do not run into any problems like that again this year.. well I managed to get the sewing machine threaded lol going to try my hand at making some smarties!
