Dr. Greenhorn's Garden Isle Grow

Gotta love the orchids!!

absolutely gorgeous. I have great memories of the "calypso orchid" of the eastern slopes of the Rockies. Pic attached. These are at full maturity only just 3" or 7-8cm. so delicate. In northern ontario, I remember yellow ladyslippers as well.

Those terrestrial orchids are easily overlooked, but always wonderful when found.

and one of those species that has relatively narrow tolerance limits for growth so disturbance of some kind generally means they do not propagate. Even forty years ago it was considered inappropriate to take wild orchids .....

All of Florida's wild orchids are now protected and for good reason. I do have some small water orchids which are native and somehow was overlooked on the list. My dept. of Ag guy was over last year and I told him about them like a good citizen. He simply told me that he was sure they were in good care with me and not to worry. Nice guy.

aloha gang! thx for the kind words everyone..
yeah dr., I hope this run of the GDP seeds go well. I germed my last 2 seeds so I am hoping for the best

thanks for stopping in tahoe! appreciate it..nice orchid too

hey CJ, good morning

I finally put my hi-jack into the ground. should start growing real nice now. will post pics a little later. also my inventory will change drastically. hi-jack is a mainstay, I am hoping to get lucky with the GDP seeds, and then everything else will be totally cleared out. like I said earlier, plans have changed and I am taking a different approach to my grow. details and reasoning behind changes a little bit later....


on a different note, my friends budybudman and celtic vixen turned me on to a video by "brown dirt warrior"...........if you haven't seen his video, you have to look for it! it is an awesome video that is a must see!!

earlier this season, I made a greenhouse for my plants mainly 'cause of air traffic overhead and due to the fact I had a shitload of plants under the covers of my greenhouse.......those days of having shitloads of plants are over. new plans, new agenda. it's all about the monsters now. so I took off the plastic that was the cover of my greenhouse. my plant was touching the plastic anyway and I didn't feel like doing a "ScrOG" grow with my plant pushing up against the plastic and growing horizontally. I want a christmas tree.

it's gonna be a very merry christmas this year!!! Mele Kalikimaka

Ohh, by the way.......there still is a shitload of plants, but not here its in the woods . in many of woods, I been busy lately!!!

Thx for kind words everyone!

Aloha zig zag zane, thx for checking out my journal, appreciate it

Keep it up my friend

I always knew you were a monster gardener....

Hahaha. Funny shit man. So how's your satori and afri-mix doing cj? Show me some pictures bro!

Okay, I'll snap some tomorrow. It's been raining like crazy here, but even so, if I don't water those suckers EVERY day, they wilt. I am not used to the thirst requirements. Last night it rained pretty well for at least an hour. I had company (he left today) and by the time I got him on the road it was 1 o'clock. So I go back to check and BAM...wilting already!!! Holey Moley!

I'll get some tomorrow and post them on the other thread, unless here is kewl.

Take care bro....

Post them here please

Okay, will do. I've had a fair share of males but I always plan for 50/50 and that's about what it is shaking out to. Not ONE hermie tho, and to me that is more important. Till tomorrow then....

Are you gonna make some seeds? I suggest you do...

i am going to be making seeds soon, i wanted to stock up on my master kush seeds i put 5 in the ground and they are all female so now i have to plant the rest of them and hope for a male. shouldve put them all in at once oh well soon enough i should have my male. but i do agree making seeds is a wise choice for anyone
