Covert Grow Ops/Sidetracked:

[Larry {the} Gardener]

Went back home for more water, then checked on the BP patch. Three of the four plants are over 8 foot now.



This late planted CP1 is almost 6 feet. Just right for what I'm trying to do.

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

Also got by the Deer Ate CP1. It too is too tall for my taste. As you can see, some of my super cropping took better than others.

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

Yesterday I got by the FP patch and sprayed the BST2's with 1 TBS Neem per gallon of water. Didn't see any worms at all though.



I hate I didn't get these young ones in the ground a little sooner. All the older BST1's and BST2's are flowering, so there isn't much time for the little ones to grow.

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

I forgot to mention that last week before I found the worms on the BST2's, I had gone by the holding grounds and culled the last two of the sprouts. Both were BST2's. One had never formed the first real leaves, and the other just wasn't looking very good. Too tall and lanky. Now that I know they flower early, I won't pop any that late in the year again.

Last night I fed and watered the GV1 and GV2 in the GB patch. Looking good for the two runts of that planting. About waste high and stretching.

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

This morning I took half the water with twice the food to the BP patch and to the Deer Ate CP1. The taller of the CP1's had some bug damage. I came back with the sprayer and give it a good misting with Neem.

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

The younger CP1 is about eye-ball high, and thinking about twisting. It is looking much better than the older plants. I would love another week of stretch like this last one.

Over in the GN patch, the BST1 is looking nice and green.



I trimmed most of the shoots on this BST2 male.

[Larry {the} Gardener]

I did a dry run to the PH and HR patches. Some of the plants are really hurting for water. No chance for me to carry any, and the rain has been dodging these plants lately.

This GV2 in the PH patch is showing hairs. These are in the big woods, and not getting much sun. If I use these holes next season, I'll have to do some serious tree cutting.



A few hairs starting to show on some of the GV1's in the HR patch too. This patch is the one suffering the most. It's the older plants that look worse.

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

I had lots of time off, so I've checked on all my patches this week. Don't remember what day I was at what patch. But going by the pictures, I guess it was the FP patch first. {Most likely Tuesday morning} I gave everything a light misting with Neem again. Still haven't seen anymore worms.

The young BST2 was a male, so I killed him.



The big BST2 male had a few pollen sack opening, and we had a week of rain forecast. So I cut most of the shoots and got them in out of the weather. I got a goodly amount of pollen, and I'm sure he will grow new shoots too.

The young BST1 is showing some hairs.




Do you think this BST2 gets tired of looking over her shoulder at her big brother?



T-Pig is 69 - 1 = 68

Next up was the Bugout patch, {AL east and west} I need to start a new tally. I don't trust my numbers at this point. There are 9 {8 CPDA's and 1 CP1} in ALe, and 5 {CP1's} in Alw.

Here are the two young CPDA's in one hole.


One of the CP1's is showing hairs. The rest of these are kind a, sort a, but not really trying to switch to flower. I'm hoping for a couple more weeks before they do it for real.

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

From there I did a dry run to the KP patches. 5 {2 CP1's and 3 Slo2's} in KPe, 0 in KPm and 4 {Slo2's} in KPw.

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

I was thinking I also did a dry run to the GN patches, but there are no pictures, so that might have been last Monday and I posted about it then..

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

I do have pictures from a dry run {other than the rain} to 3DT, SEE, JP and DDW patches. Deer supercropped a GV2 in the DDW patch for me. Also ate one of the ones they had ate before. Can't remember if I cashed it on T-Pig or not. so I'll do it again.

The plant in SEE {whose strain eludes me at the moment}





T-Pig is 68 - 1 = 67

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

This morning I carried water and food to the SOL, GV and Sol patches. The deer had ate a few more of the side branches on the 88{F1} that had been staked down.

 

[Larry {the} Gardener]

CP1 in BP patch is still stretching. About 10 foot or there abouts.



Young CP1

Yesterday just before dark I ran by the BP patch and the Deer Ate CP1 with 1/2 the normal amount of water with normal food. It was too close to dark to take pictures. Went on from there to the GB patch, and the Lost and Found Slo2 with full food and water.

And I will admit to being scared of my shadow. I was in shorts, and the grass was over knee high where I was walking on the way back to the camp from the L&F Slo2. There was a smattering of moonlight coming in, so I wasn't using my headlight. Then the clouds cleared, and I saw my shadow scurrying through the tall grass. I did back up for a second. It was pretty funny when I realized what had happened. {I had had a safety meeting between patches}

Forgot to say that the three runts {GV1 and GV2 in the GB patch and the Lost and Found Slo2} are all growing like crazy. Food, water and sun will do wonders for weaklings. Hope they get a couple of three more weeks before they flower.

Had a good chuckle at this

This morning I got down to the FP patch. My parking spot was taken though.



The Young BST1 has started to twist.



One of the two BST2 girls, digging the sunshine.



And the big BST2 male keeps getting smaller. I gave him another haircut today. I cut a fast food bag full of shoots, and dusted a little on all three of the girls in the patch.
