15 hours and 29 mins of daylight as of today, 6/11
It's been a week, that's for sure. We had a big heat wave move through, some days it was 92F and over 100F in the sun. I also had my sister fly up from down south and stay for a couple days now that we're both fully vaccinated, I hadn't seen her in 2 years! But that also meant I had to spend almost 2 whole days tearing my house apart, moving seedlings racks and Phyllis out of the guest bedroom, trying to clean an 1840's farmhouse with multiple long haired pets living in it and 2 hard working laborers that track all kinds of things in😅 Put her on the ferry Sunday morning, then immediately harvested and sold produce at the Farmers Market. Next day had to run to the mainland to get a load of hay.
I've been busy.
It also meant that I did not get these in the ground as I would have liked to, but it's just as well.
The heat wave broke yesterday and it got down to 50F last night. It's a chilly day today so I think the plants are happier in the hoop house anyway. It is just around 60F right now, but there's a chilly breeze and it's quite overcast.
But I can't keep them in there forever. I need to finish prepping beds and get my cannabis plants in the ground. I'm just so bloody tired😵 The fatigue feels insurmountable. I'm still struggling with what I need to get done vs how much energy I have to do it, trying to get as much done as possible without overexerting myself. But my batteries are very low right now. Hopefully it'll stay cool for a bit so I can get some decent sleep😴
Otherwise, these plants are the best of the bunch. The biggest, most beautiful rock stars😍 But 2 of them will be going away soon. One of my best friends is battling breast cancer right now, and it was always my intention to give her 2 of the 3. I really only need one for myself.
Not much else to report. I wish you all happy, healthy growth for all your plants, and remember to take care of yourself🙏
OMG, you're growing 16 plants?!😱 You're a sweetheart, taking care of your wounded chicken 😍. Love to read your diarie! I'll stop commenting now because I feel like a stalker.. 😂
@StealthyDutchGuy, Well, I didn't keep 16. That would have been wayyyyyyy to much for me to handle! I have 5 Photoperiods currently in the ground (one of which is hemp) and 4 autos that I started earlier which have been harvested. 2 of the 3 Blueberry plants went to a friend with cancer.
@StealthyDutchGuy, Actually I am venturing out into more THC heavy strains this year! My tolerance is better and I don't get so much paranoia, so where I've been growing mainly 1:1's the past couple years I have this Blueberry and then I did Green Crack and Sour Diesel for autos which I harvested last month. I am very much enjoying the Green Crack lately. I vape an oven full, put on some Fleetwood Mac and I can get some serious work done in the garden in 2 hours and have the best time doing it!
Like your Photo, talking about Mary though! She looks very vibrant and healthy! Says a lot about your care for the plant! Keep growing Mother Nature WILL bless you!
