brah, you're not gonna believe it. They get less than four hours a day! I have then under my Albezia tree canopy to help hide from helicopters. Those colas are rock hard too! I think the next full moon they are coming down! They are ready in my opinion. So they will come down next full moon and so will my 9 ft. Blackberry too!

went outside this morning at daybreak only to find that my 13 ft. Thai snapped right in half!!! It broke my fucking heart! Plus my 4 and a half ft. Blackberry was on her side when I got to her. I hated to, but I was forced to move her. I'm a firm believer that once my girls are disturbed, or moved that it takes them outta their "growing rhythm. But I also found a good size spot of "Bud Rot", on one of her two top colas. So now I'm looking at my other larger 'Blackberry', and wondering if I should take her down? It appears that Puna is gonna at least rain all morning if not all day. I have to make some hard decisions this morning.

FUCK!!!!!

Hey puna, goodluck man..and my biggest plant only had less than 6 hrs of direct sun, so I understand where you're coming from need help with the harvest? Let me know, I have some frequent flyer miles I gotta use..

puna, sorry to hear about your mishap and best of luck with the rest of your plants which look quite exceptional from those pics. was wondering also, do you use pots for all your plants? or do you throw some into the earth? and aunty, thanks for that link it was actually very interesting in learning the roots of our herb over time. for example on maui the good herb went for 75$ an ounce! crazy talk i tell you... and the not so good stuff went for 35$ i cant believe how much its changed in appearence over time either! wonderful stuff learning about our cannahistory.

shit, I remeber selling pounds of my Maui bud back in mid 70's for $1200.00 a pound! I cringed the first year I asked my customers to pay $1800.

Since my growing days back on Maui I made the switch to grow bags almost exclusively. For one, I like the ability to be able to move my plants at the the drop of a dime. It's a security issue for me, and I love the feel of the grow bag in my hands as oppose to a plastic grow bucket.

Congrats Jusrushfc!
I gifted Jus some Black Domina... He crossed it with his Hawaiian Snow...
Gave me a few of the cross seeds back as thanx for the Black Domina...
I gifted those to my best friend who is a top notch grower for the dispensaries in Cali....
The cross turned out to be an incredible hybrid... It turned purple/blue (from the BD)....
It's now being shared with the medical marijuana community in LA as "Blue Hawaiian" at one of the top dispensaries in California..

Wow, nice

Aunty, I'm like a cat, I always end up on my feet! The really sad part to me is the loss of my big landrace Thai. When I walked out the other morning to see how my girls were. It was like a knife was being thrusted into my heart! Anyone who has grown huge sativa knows iof the work involved. I was constsntly cleaning up plant growth that had died. Plus on top of it all she was starting to go off. But for a landrace, she was growing rather swiftly. Still she was probably six weeks out. But her buds were takiing nice shape.
So that brings my total to two destroyed landraces this season on account of the weather. One was 13 ft., and the other 8 to 9 ft. when she went down. I also lost a 9 ft. "Black Jack". Because of the "flyovers" recently, and nothing was taken from my subdivision, I decided to cut down my beautiful 10 ft Blackberry! I didn't want to give the DEA the satisfaction of cutting down my plant. The last day they(FEDS) conducted their flyover/raids. Even thought they took nothing from my subdivison, they flew right down my street,...stopping at my property! Then they proceeded on. I know they are coming back soon!!! So my concern now is my triangle of Sativas (3)SOG with 10 footers. They too are going off nicely,but are sticking out like "dog's balls". I'm sure Op Green Harvest has these ladies marked. But I got my fingers crossed that they make itl I also have a 6 ft. Web about ready near them. So I don't need any feds coming down on rope ladders over next few days! Or hopefully they check and see that I am legal have my license, and I'm actually below legal number

I knew they were coming back! After their last visit this past week. This past week they came flying down my road barely above telephone lines!!! Then one of the choppers came above my yard hovered for what seemed like eternity,...then quickly took off to join the others. I knew at that point they were checking, and marking possible targets. But I'm all legal so they left. As a matter of fact, I'm below my allowed number of plants!

Punatic, which Web Strain do you have? I have a real love/hate relationship with that strain. I will get into it later. Right now I have two or three different "Webs" going. They are slow finishers. But because of their broad leaves. The average "ripoff" doesn't realize that it's pakalolo while it's in a vegatative state. But once she starts to flower...she smells of high heaven!
