Michigan Growers Tell Your Plans for This Year

You are prob right, I am just trying to stay optimistic. Wouldn't that suck if we never find out what happened to him? It is the sort of thing that will eat at me, and leave me wondering for a few years at least.

Green Dave, if he still hasn't logged in by, lets just say November 1st, will you do us all a favor and drive to his house and get us some answers? What did you mean when you said "if you know what I mean"?

The fact that calls and texts aren't going through to his cell phone is a clue. I'm not sure what it means, but is is strange that his phone would be cut off at the same time he left this thread.

i think he means that he doesnt wanna pop into his house if he died or got real sick, probably because he would feel weird. im still on the lookout for my package i recieved from him, it had his return address on it. i will personally go to his house regardless how far the drive.

Thats one hell of a good idea using the heat wire. im jelouse

Click to expand...

Well I hope it is good enough for tonight. The wife said the sheet goes down to about 2 feet from the bottom. So it is not completely covered. I think the wire will generate enough heat to make up for it "I hope!". I forgot to mention last weekend I taped wood popsicle and paint sticks onto the wire in areas where the wires were touching the plants directly. Should make a nice little heat shield.

I also hope Hic is okay. I don't know him and have only been following this thred for a few months. Very strange.

I will go by in a few weeks when I go north to get my girls ,he 2 hours north of me
I mean not sure what is going on if nhes sick or passed or if the man got him and has his house staked out to see who comes by

Well if hic did go down I do think he would at least chime in and let us all know what the deal is. I do hope all is good mebbe he is just sitting back waiting for harvest...

Knowing hic he wouldnt go peacfuly he would fight if he knew it was comming

Woke up to see a heavy frost covering everything this morning.
I just got back from my plants and im happy to say they all made it. A few of them are yellowing pretty bad but they look like they will make it.
My veggie garden didnt fare so well.

its gonna be pretty nice all weekend ...

we are almost at page 420 ...

therachshow is bout to come through with some sick ass gdp ...

im running the shower, go in my room for clothes, come down and my son is leaving the bathroom saying "i wouldnt go in there" ...

my qwubble is taking too long to dry ...

Stopped at Home Depot and picked up a two pack of drop cloths in the paint department. They are 6x12 and were $6.99 I threw one on top of the sheet that the wife put out.

Now the good stuff...

About 5 minutes after putting the drop cloth on a had an idea. I have a real nice digital meat thermometer. I used to use it to check my pool water. I took it outside and gave it a few minutes to cool off and get down close to air temperature. Actually I was getting a little impatient for the metal probe to cool off so I started shaking it back and forth trying to make a wind chill. It read 45 (online weather said 41). I climbed under the sheet with my handy thermometer and got a temp of 70 up near the top! Here is the best part. I still have it open about 18" from the ground and 3' long on the East side. The drop cloth didn't fit all the way to the ground. Going to use both of them next time turn it 90 degrees and I will be good to go. I also picked up a camo 12x9 tarp at the depot for about $15. A few days back I grabbed a dog house hunting blind from Dunhams for $35! Gonna use that to keep the tarps and timer for the heat wire nice and dry. Can be my little storage shed. Its calling for a low of 30 tonight. I am going to check the temp again in the morning.

my g13s vortex and god buds are kicking some serious ass right now.Ive be covering them up at night until harvest in 2 weeks

Hello michigan growers hope you all are having a great season!!! Not enjoying this cold shit either are the girls. I have some nice things going this year but hopefully we get about another 3 weeks min. before its time to chop. I have 7 diff strains going and most just blew up got an og kush and a skywalker that are lagging behind like always!! I did a pineapple express from seed and WOW i will def be doing this one again outside holy shit. I started it inside and it was about 10 inch tall when i put her out and man this strain def like outdoors! She is about 7 foot tall and 5 foot wide just a great lookin plant and super super frosty. Also did a blueberry gum from seed and that also is doing GREAT! and i have a red dragon which is also on her way to greatness.

I used the Fall blend heavy harvest and just started a feed of the advanced overdrive and man that overdrive does wonders! I know alot of u don't like advanced but some of there products you just can not beat.

I used their whole heavy harvest line this year and WOW my shit blew up bigger then i have seen in years. And still have enough for next two years i'd say. I grow guerrilla style and this heavy harvest is great for my style. I thought long and hard about buying because i could hardly find any reviews with it, just people complaining about the price. But for 150 i got three years worth of fertilizer.

Good luck with weather guy's im right below you all in ohio and it's colder then normal but i think it's just right for us down here.
Peace.
