Hello. This is the end of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of flowering.
Got 1 week of flushing done. I'll give the 3rd flushing tomorrow and and I should get another in before the harvest, starting on Aug 5, a Monday.
In years past, it's taken about a week to cut it down, hang the branches for a few days and then put the buds into curing bags.
Getting yellow leaves because of the flushing and there is another week to go so there will be more yellow leaves.
That's Ok. I think if you mistreat them a bit, you gets more THC at harvest.
The 3 plants I have inside were wilted when I checked on them. With the heat they went through their water faster since the last watering.
Now they have got lots of yellow leaves, especially Plant #8b. That twin has been a little strange since the start. Oh well?!?
The inside plants are a week behind the ones in the greenhouse and they will be harvested after I've finished in the greenhouse.
Showed some of my flowering peyote. They are self pollenating and the oldest is about 20 years old.
Finished book 5 of Weirdo. I've got more Freak Bros. comic books for the next diaries which will be Pink Kush and Death Bubba from weedasecgenetics.simdif.com/ or weedasec.org/
OK. Keep Growing Straight.
Chuck.
Hello. After 30 years of growing, I've found my first twin. Can they be separated? Have you heard of it being done or have you done it or should I just cut the weaker stem out? What other advice can you give on this matter. Chuck.
Are they separate or conjoined? If so separate safely. If joined them I'd grow as is to see how it turned out. It's rare so a documented experiment would be interesting. If you are only growing that one then maybe start another.
I feel if you cut it off there is a big chance both will die. They are fragile.
Let em ride dude
Hello. I asked a question about twins a day ago. Gently dug down to find a root for each stem. Separation successful. My question now is - are they identical or not? I my mind they are, What do you think. Chuck.
genetic mapping.. no way to see a physical thing that results from the fertilized egg splitting or if there were 2 unique eggs fertilized to start.
might have a good guess, but can't be certain of it.
@Chuckwaggon420, Thanks Buddy. The buds are already a good size and I still have got 5 weeks to go. I'm hoping for more than 2 K out of this, this year. My biggest harvest from this greenhouse is 1.8 K a few years ago. Chuck.
@Inganjawetrust, Thanks. I built the greenhouse about 20 years ago, but when it was legalized in Canada I started growing in here. It was used for cactus's before that. Chuck.
@Ghrim, Thanks Buddy. Took some work but I finally got through it.
Took 7 days to cut down 9 plants. It took 5 days to cut down the 6 plants in the greenhouse.
@Inganjawetrust, Thanks Friend. Got a few 100 g branches when I was wet trimming at harvest.
It will take a few days to get it all into jars, but it's mostly dried and cured now. Got 316 g dry from the first plant I weighted up.
Thanks for looking in. How are you liking the comics? Good cannabis content for the diary.
Chuck.
@Chuckwaggon420, Hi Buddy. I've grown them all from seed. I've got some 20 year old ones that are about 4 inches across. I've got peyote seeds too if your interested but they are illegal in the states, so don't get caught. They flower with small pink flowers and are self pollenated so they just make their own seeds. I keep them in the small greenhouse where I pollenated the clones (see the video a couple of weeks ago). I also have 3 types of Trichocereus with san Pedro being one of them. My large greenhouse that I'm growing cannabis in now used to be filled with all sorts of cactus. Chuck.
@Chuckwaggon420, Thanks Buddy, I enjoy it when others enjoy it I think this is my 5 year, growing like this, in the greenhouse.
Each year I learn, and tweak the system a little better for the next year. Thanks Buddy. See ya around. Chuck.
@Vichologo, Thanks Friend. Good of you to say. Seems this strain is White Powdery Mildew resistant.
I've got WPM on my peas, lilac bush and dandelion weeds but not in here.
Chuck.
