@yan402, Thanks Bud! This is my last grow for the foreseeable future. I'm getting prepared to move and I won't be able to pop any seeds. I'm savoring this wave I'm on until I can get my set up going! :alien:

@yan402, Thanks Growmie! I'm so proud of it and I feel like I did a good job for my first time. I CANNOT wait to make more. Happy Growing! :alien:

@brownbae420, Thanks :pray: yeah, a real beaut ... depending on the load (wet weight) i tend to run 6+4. Starting dry cycle @ 18 °C (~ 65 °F) bulb / 12.2 °C (54 °F) dew point = 68 % rH sloping down to dry cycle @ 18 °C (~ 65 °F) bulb / 9.8 °C (50 °F) dew point = 58 % rH in "cure" mode. Then storing in mason jars. Works great for me.

@lov3m3mor3, wow! This resonates deeply with me and was extremely educational. I'm definitely going to research these and try to apply them to my gardening. Will keep following your updates! Happy growing! Happy New Moon in Gemini!

@brownbae420, thanks for the question! I do use the movement of the sky to determine when to do things for my weed plants and my outdoor garden. I’m using a combo of Chris Brennan’s guidelines for traditional “electional” or inceptional tropical astrology, and Marie Thun’s guidelines for gardening to the sidereal moon. Marie Thun is where I started; she posits guidelines for times in which actions like seed sowing or fertilizing are more likely to be effective based on where the moon is in the sky. IE Waxing moon better for sowing annuals, waning better for perennials. The chart here is a harvest chart; harvesting flowers is recommended when the moon is in a sidereal flower (air) or fruit (fire) sign, as they will be more fragrant, last longer and store better! The other half of this, elections, are complicated. The idea being that a skilled astrologer can help you choose when to take actions in the garden by mitigating when the planets are in bad positions that may indicate trouble for the subject of the election (for me, my weed plants). So for example, saturn and neptune both hate being in Aries but saturn is associated with plant structure and growth. So I’d want to avoid times that place unhappy Saturn Neptune combo in the houses of bad fortune: the sixth (injury or debility), eighth (inactivity, interpersonal debt) and twelfth (imprisonment, confinement, hidden enemies). And I’d want to make sure that if there’s a planet in the houses of saturn’s rulerships cap and aquarius, that it’s a planet that likes being there.
