June 22: fermented plant juice (FPJ) made from cannabis tops applied along with Extreme Blend in a foliar spray. Using a couple drops of Dr, Bronners Peppermint Soap as a surfactant and apparently the smell helps repel bugs.
No need to water after our week of rain.
June 23: no problems at all and doing great.
June 24: supercropped outer colas so they don’t have apical dominance over the inner four colas. Safer than LST at this point. Secured with stretchy floral tape which is one of the best $5 grow tips…totally worth it.
June 25: started another lazy compost tea for the hell of it. Added a handful of coco coir this time to provide media (fiber) for bacteria to grow on.
June 26: used compost tea after sunny 27 C day.
June 28: why not? Used another lazy compost tea this morning.
@Northern_Ent,Good morning, Woke up this morning to -2c, frost all over everything. I forgot to bring my little mystery plant in, it was pretty much frozen so I don't know of it will survive or not 😵 . Everything in the greenhouse survived with no issues, it was +5c in the greenhouse this morning . You can still go an hour south from Dryden before you hit the border at Fort Francis, International Falls. I don't go that way very often but I do go to Dryden now and then for supplies etc., my Wife and I take a ride on the Harleys and go for a burger at the chipstand once in awhile,(great burgers and reasonably priced) it's about a 2 hour round trip from where we live.
Smok'em if you got'em!!!
@northernMike, summers here really are very good. I remember driving out to Ontario and seeing a rental truck in Dryden, near the 49th parallel, saying “we know the North” but it’s as far south as you can go in western Canada. I know winters in the shield are hardcore, it was just funny to be thinking how far south we were and then to see that. Cheers.
@Northern_Ent, I lived in Edmonton in 1986-87 when that big tornado went through, I still have the newspaper from that day packed away somewhere. I worked at an Italian restaurant called the San Remo as a dishwasher and prepper six days a week after school including Sundays. I still have a couple of cousins in Edmonton, but I haven't talked to them in over thirty years.
Later!!
@yan402, I’ve made pressed hash from dried flowers in years past, but this is first year using fresh frozen. Will do cold curing this time (couple months in fridge) which is apparently known as piatella hash. See my Golosa diary for previous hash making.
Hey, what you did with your plants in that machine? Seems like a way to use leaves for edibles or just oil? Would like to know the name of the process😺
@Lizard3d, hash washing in a small washing machine. You can find actual clothes washing machines, or branded ones for hash. Can likely find used as they’re not very useful for most people. Look up Frenchy Cannoli on YouTube for hashmaking dskills. Cheers.
Wow buddy!! super nice buds
What an amazing grow so far - good job and well done 🤝
Happy Growing & cant wait for your upcoming weeks 🌱
Cheers, Bud Boutique 👩🌾
@BudBoutique, thanks, eh? It’s been a longer than normal season but the last plants are coming down in the next few days.
Snow is forecast for Monday (four days from now) and that will be another season done. Drilled a couple holes with the plan to take it down in 3 days.
