Made a good slurry, it drained nice and quick.

These are the spent greenhouse bricks that I have been cutting in.

My only concern is elasticity. I will let that pile dry for a few days, just to see if it cracks hard.

Im stoked to see youre getting your moneys worth out of Roc and Larry Koopa.

Built some veg buckets today. Those three inch starter pots wont hardly make it for 12 hours without watering, and that puts me in a precarious spot.

Did a tapwater slurry.
Absent in the photo, however it was flashing the " * 10 " at me.

You know it is hot, when it arbitrarily moves the decimal.
1130, minus tap is still over 1000 ppm

I honestly do not know how they will react to that. I think I have talked myself into sending in a few test pilots for a few days, just to see how they react.
My easy-going self thinks that they will be just fine; but I am not keen on burning the ass off of every plant I have.

Randoms,,,

Reeeally missing my go-to baby food. Feeding is all over the map. I got every shade of green going on in here.
20211022_135255.jpg

Needing more aggressive feeds. This is what all my plants look like when I first started growing
?
Kinda rusty and mottled.

Anywho.
Looks like more cabbages from @Keif Lint 20211022_134643.jpg

I didn't realize this was a triple. I think I dropped something on its head when it was a baby. I haven't topped anything in here; but it certainly is now.

Overwatered, under-watered. Under temperature, overheated,
underfed,,,jaja

I got no worries, we will get there eventually.

Just node after node.
I always have trouble promoting branches, but these beauties are going hog-wild.
20211023_134529.jpg
Barely three Smurfs tall and she gives a half-doz branches already.

From memory, it seems that sex shows around the 7th internode , or so.

I missed the Xmas harvest window.
I have accumulated all the gear that I was needing. Just have to find a couple of (uninterrupted) hours for hands-on leg work to prepare the flower room.
I am chomping to go, but I need them to show sex first before they hit the communal bed.

Ya @Jewels i have a car shelter greenhouse with roll up dep system. Works great but I’d still like to grow out in the garden. Let nature do all the work.
I had some volenteers com up this year. A couple autos from seed stock from the early 90s and a couple photo. The photo got huge 7’ but frost has already killed them, no bud. The autos were finished at about 6’. Haven’t sampled yet.
I have a couple Afghan early from WOS growing now. Look nice,have some good stem rub going on. May try a clone or to outside in the spring. I’ll keep you posted on how that goes.
I am working on some auto photo crosses this winter. I traded some of my auto reg for some different auto seed. Going to cross both ways. I have some god bud males I hope to cross with the auto females. And I’ll cross some of the auto males to some of the cuts I have. I hope to have a bunch of seed to plant out in the spring.
I know some farmers that had genetics that would finish here on central Ab. They literally had hedges growing. This was 30 years ago. I’d like to get ahold of some of that seed. I know they have lots.

That is the concept that I cannot understand.

Humour me,

This is late May. Danger of frost has passed. Less than one hour of true darkness.
Capture+_2021-10-25-10-37-26_(1).png

Mid-July and it never blacks right out.
Capture+_2021-10-25-10-30-18_(1).png

Late Aug and night temps are down in single digits again.
Capture+_2021-10-25-10-30-59_(1).png
Still, only six hours of blackness.

This is today.
Capture+_2021-10-25-10-22-25_(1).png
I guess this is the Equinox. Day length equals night.

You mentioned that your photo did not bud,,,
So how are these guys doing it ?
How do they flower bud , when it doesn't get full-dark ?

Still entertaining myself with this. I decided to reference against sunlight in the Emerald Triangle. Need a random city in California.
Eureka !
Somebody in that town is pulling down some plants today. Assuming they have been flowering for 8 or nine weeks,,,the bud was beginning to form around Aug 23rd.

,,, with but 7 hours of blackness.

I have had 12/12 hammered in so many times that it becomes difficult to conceptualize anything beyond that precept.

Capture+_2021-10-25-12-18-31_(1).png
If I want 7 hours of blackness , I gotta wait until Sept 10th or so.
Right around when nights are dipping hard .

I wish I had a chance to talk to that guy with the outdoor plant.
I am starting to convince myself that it was an auto. I just did not know autos could get that big.
There was 8 - 12 ounces on that thing , easy.

May have been a super auto. Same with the farmers that I know. Pretty sure I read when you cross Ruderalis to a photo. There are a wide verity of mixes. Some short fast some tall and go a little longer.
You should roll up a fatty and go for a chat. See what he was growing.

Here is one of my breeding tables.
Aphgan early is closest. Cookies and Chem to the back then a bunch of autos, god bud from seed, then far is lemon haze and GG4.
Going to flip this week.
Th autos I have are Amnesia AK chronically darkness and the old one I brought back.

I think its called sidreal time, the relative planetary positions as observed from the earths surface. Even though the days are long the sun still changes direction, this relative position change seems like something that would be obvious to an immovable object (in nature plants are rooted to the ground). Whose to say this can't be a flower trigger? Equitorial photperiods exist even though the day length varries little. Understand there are process that typically happen in the dark but perhaps there is an enzyme or something that allows them during the day.
Heres one thats bouncing round my nrain right now - minute rotations of the plant before sunrise (counterclockwise) and sunset (clockwise) - this is what it (the sun) would look to the plant on xyz future day.
