Damn, that sounds good Don, is this the Blue Papaya or a different cross?

3 Jack Shits that got the run from very young bro!! [ @eastcoastmo ]
I will load a pic of the Blue Papaya though, it stretched good on me, only one really, but really fanned out and is set for about 8 tops with a tiny bit of LST. Just gotta switch devices!

Dang tbbie died again before I could snap any more pics!
Good news is though that [Mosca OldTime Moonshine x Double Dutch] x [Purple Rhino x G13 x Fat Marty] courtesy of my good good breeding bredgren has arrived so.. gonna pop these next along with the RG #30 aka Major Tom today as my special germ glasses are free again.
Meanwhile, yesterdays new project, the NEW Shotta Fruit Cakes are a litttttle bit slow to crack their shells in water, might germ them in soil from now on. 2 of 5 have tiny tiny tails and the other 3 are barely cracking but have started.
30 hours later though, and ALL 5 CTF's have cracked and 4 of 5 have decent sized, thick what tap root tails protruding nicely! So into soil they go today. Probably add one a week to the flowering room to gauge and stagger them separately, including one in about 5 days, or on the 3rd node/leaflet sets.
I love to see this level of progress at the 30 hour mark..
attached is a Prime Glue a couple weeks old, just got upped from a 2" to a 4 or 5" pot

I got Jack Shits and an Afghan Skunk, as well as a couple Con Cookies, all at the same age as this one, but the rest are all way ahead of this one, and muuuuch less viney.. however the blue pap was kind of an 'dwarfy unfortunate outsider' until recently, there were a few specimens hogging the mainer stages until a bit ago. I put it in a corner under little to no direct light, but still in between lights, and hoped it would sprout up a bit, and did it ever.. few weeks ago it was only a few inches!
You'll like the other ones though.. not that this one wont come around now that its getting more love and attention, I think I still got a lotta time on this one vs the others- just gotta get back in there with my go to device.

Aaaaah, so THAT's what the filling of one of my yoga cushions is!
I've been pondering using those in my soil mixes too - the old batch, in the cushion, has been sat on for quite some years, but doesn't look any worse for wear, when I compare it to the new filling. So it must be hellishly loaded with those structuring substances (was it chitin?), moreso than the grain hulls I've also sat on, which tend to crack lengthwise and start pulverizing.
Also, I like how the curved shape makes them bouncey, promising fluffiness in the soil mix.
I'd be curious to know what the hulls are made up of specifically, but sadly couldn't find anything specifically. But I did find this about using the hulls in and around the garden, nice and simple and clear: http://www.bettervegetablegardening.com/types-of-mulch.html#hulls
mmMm use em in the wormbin too!
I need to mix a bit of soil for uppotting in a few days and do think some of those hulls are going to get incorporated
Cheers!
