Hawaii Growers

I hope one day I fit that mold. For now I'm happy with being a hard ass pollen chucker ;). Anything else I would let grow; no I wouldnt I lie; if its lagging I yank it too.
 
A few weeks or maybe a few months back someone asked me if I also yank seedlings I pay money for and my answer was yes I do. As a matter of fact I killed some today which were lagging behind their sisters.

Das how braddah. I'm too soft. I let the runts stick around. I just give them a longer veg time, but I probably should yank them. Good thing I'm not aiming for breeder status. I just want to grow every strain that tickles my fancy. I probably only have to live to be like 500 years old or something like that at this rate or plant out every gulch and field in a 5 mile radius, ha ha.

I'm not necessarily aiming for breeder status but I have so many seeds, like you, I would have to live to 500 to grow them all, so trying to find the best of the best, to smoke (what else is there?)

In the search for dankest of the dank all day errry day, ha ha. I'm off to do some studying. Hopefully by the end of the week I'm going to be applying for a part time job doing soil Rx's for an pretty well known agronomist's office. The money is pretty good and soil sciencs is one of my hobbies. Have a good day braddah :)

Cool deal on the new job bro. Great to play with something you love. Im still on the hunt here ffs.
 
Big Island will take the brunt of the 1st storm, then the other islands will freak out over rain. Was a beautiful first half of the day here but just started getting gloomy. The birds know whats up...they've barely made a sound today.
 
anybody else getting flogged this season? i pulled a few nice trees but a lot of my girls started showing signs of mold about 2-3 weeks from finishing. Pulled a lot of premature weight. This is the wettest summer i've ever seen on Maui. Mother nature has the last laugh....always.
 
Best wishes to all the BI and Maui growers Even tho I'm on Oahu I spent most of the day outside getting ready around the hale.

I have much respect for hurricanes. Still remember Iniki when she was almost past then abruptly turned North and slammed into Kauai.

I normally have to chop early most times here. I get the bug that kills the whole branch too. It's actually sickening how much I have to toss due to the overnight invasion of mold. Really, I know it's my fault for letting the yard get so out of control...but I like to blame the weather...

Then, it has to dry... hehe... hope I didn't bum anyone out.

Here's a couple of shots of what I just took down because of the storm as well as a few spots of mold.

Big Island has been super wet. Hurricane was pretty minor in Hilo, one brief heavy downpour and regular rain the rest of the day, not much wind. I brought my most ripe girl inside the house with my dehuey, she could use another week or two but dont know if she can go the distance. Humidity has been over 80%.
 
I have been spraying Green Cure on my girls and just hit them with Nuke'em this morning. I'll post some pics, but whatever this stuff is, bud rot, PM, mold, or whatever, it's crushing my groove. I did manage to harvest my first autogrow of LSD-25. Giving it 24/7 light was probably a bad idea...

Bummer about the rot. I plan on trying some autogrows this Winter. Suggestions? I've read it's best not to top them, not to transplant them and to use deeper pots.
