[Tika]

Good Evening Folks
Just completed a nasty round of a flu strain, tear down & put up new decks on building to avoid an inadvertent plunge, ( I got the seal and paint x 2 coats extension ladder 2 story job) , got my outtake window refurbished, slider to grow tent room shattered during take down / being replaced tomorrow, and just one day shy by of 3rd week in flower. Looks like I will bring in the new year properly! I have moved 5 others outside to see how they work in my winter. Hopefully the dog kennel/ greenhouse will go up TG holiday.
So here are pics...The plants look like my sons did when they were 8 yrs old. All leg and no there there.
I hope your Thanksgiving Holiday is a wonderful one. I am so thankful for your presence and companionship .
🦃 Hugs to you from me

The plants look gorgeous, Tika; love the praying mantis!! Always a sign of good luck!!!

[Tika]

Thanks ATU. Yea I like Mantis too. Usually brown around d here. Also known as soothsayers 😊

[Beach_Town_Brit]

Hey Tika, sorry I'm so late to this, and very sorry to hear about your flu (I had a nasty bout too). You are so industrious, and it shows in your plants.
Happy, happy, thanksgiving ... looks like we'll be at the beach!

[GRAND]

Love the pics, the babies lookin strong! Happy Thanksgiving to u and your family!

[Tika]

Thank you GRAND . Hopefully the stretch is done as it is getting awkward moving them in and out of the tent to feed.
Appreciate you stopping by.

wow Tika love the deck too,fantastic job and on second floor wow ,that must of been tough at times
the praying mantis is really cool I haven't seen one of those in alot of years
your girls are looking great,what size are those pots and are they autos?

[Tika]

Thank you OJH...yes decks Are a piece of labor for sure plus he sand and debris tracked into the house. But happy it's done
Plants are in 5gal smart pots and are photos from seed. I've grown only one auto ever Bluberry I think. Her pitiful yield discouraged me. That was pre-Green75 proof that you can top an auto

[oldjarhead100]

you know I've only been doing them this year and I've noticed they are great to do different strains at the same time cause none of them are ready at the same time lol
and the yield varies as well one of my autos had over 500 grams wet ,thats a quarter pound dry then I had a white widow that gave 35 grams dry the second widow still has time on her but its looking like more than 35 grams , so the yield seems to vary between plants sorry i'm rambling ,should be outside working lol

[Vapo69]

Everything looks fantastic Tika ....those Ayahuasca purple are looking great and the deck work too....hope you are feeling loads better after the flu

[Tika]

Thank you Vapo ❤️ yes on the mend. Eager to see the purples from this grow...Never had plants get this tall so soon despite LST.. here are the outdoor girls😊

[Vapo69]

Tika I have to say.......those aya purps look amazing

[Tika]

5 plants outside. One stays out (cotton candy) and the other 4- had to get another wagon- get rolled in at night. Not sure on the viability of this process but....Gotta do it. Eager to get the structure up.

[NebulaHaze]

They look beautiful

[Canuck147]

Love your work and dedication Tika.

[oldjarhead100]

amazing I really like the cart idea

[Tika]

At 3 weeks into flower flip-tent views left and right. So much for the even canopy concept-some short and tall GDP, the DinaChem tall-Aya tall too. Fee every other day now-8 indoor tent plants and 5 outdoor plants...never realized a milk gallon would be so important to me at this age...
May the holiday bring you peace and pleasure
hugs all around

[Sheesh]

Nah, BTB said your eyes aren't quite as dark

[PuravidaC]

Did a thesis on the "garden of earthly delights" for my art minor so I love the topic!!! You are always impressive!!

[oldjarhead100]

Those are some nice looking girls,I love the Tent as well thats what I was shooting for when I built my room .Room to walk around and work on your plants, Very nice indeed

[Tika]

"always trying to make perfect in an inperfect world" I confess today that I left one of my tent ports open last night..Only closed 4 of 5. So much for light leaks. Sometimes I really hate myself.
No clapping please.
Going to a CBD meeting tonight..2C what's up... CBD Basics Talk

https://us.eventbu.com/san-luis-obispo/cbd-basics/7993880

Off to work...

[Tika]

ATU
CBD event a bust...Hemp
2 women promoting themselves,/ business
No question session, no opportunity to ask about the THC Flint concept with CBDs ,
focused on synthetic fat cells to absorbe CBD from hemp
People ...Young people jumping on a band wagon they know nothing about
I worry about CBD patients ( hugging my friends as I polvolt my opinion) getting
Seriously taken
No young folk attending
The line up for products...Balm,tincture, was a joke

I was embarrassed to the point of twitch (in my ass off)
There ya all are

[alltatup]

Tika Well there's the long and the short of what's going on in cannabusiness world: bunch of fools jumping on the bandwagon. You may already know of this site, but it's been an excellent learning site for me: https://www.projectcbd.org

[PuravidaC]

Yup... can't smoke, buy or grow here but you can get CBD snake oil at the corner 7-11...

[Tika]

I'll get seed probably .., but still a robust grow thus far. would if you could - reject a gift of it with seeds?
Some folks are picky...I'm not a hardass on seeds being an old sifter of such
Sipping my Devine tea and cheering auto folk ❤️

[oldjarhead100]

Hey Tika I dont try to screw up but when I do and get seeds ,I put them in a jar and grow them when I can, and if its a hermee then they should be female. Just my thoughts

[Mr.furley]

I have been working diligently over the last 3 weeks cleaning, drying, hanging, bag seed weed and breeder weed, and over the last three week of smoking the crap out of all of it side by side I can't tell the difference. I think I may need some more time to study the difference.

[Tika]

Yea...if I have seeds I save and gift. It isn’t the end of the world... nothing like it used to be in the old days..sifting seeds from shit weed BUT...
it was also 10$ an ounce

[Mr.furley]

They where the blackest of beans.half the time couldn't tell if it was a bean or a bug, I still ate them by the handful. Mexi-cali brick weed kind of miss it thinking about it.

[Beach_Town_Brit]

bag seed is the gift that keeps giving
I think it's also one of the great mythological narratives of cannabis culture, the genetic that got away

[Mr Pot]

Where I live we still have brick weed. There's a video of a US pro grower analizing the brick weed and his first reaction is why you guys still smoke it?
Legalization's a bless, be thankful! I wanted to buy a LED but all we have here is China's worst LED's and that would cost me near US$650 (It says something around 600W but someone showed me that's a lie - it has real potency of 150W or so). If anyone wants to ship me that Viparspectra LED's I'd be so thankful, haha!
Everytime I check my girls I'm more and more anxious to smoke them, it's a huge love fish I have for them but that's okay cause I don't want to go back to shitty weed.

[Tika]

But then: the shoe box lid, the zigzag paper flap, and the Zen of detwigging and de seeding, can still hear the sound of the seeds rolling down the lid...
a happy opinion of my memory 1966-1970s

[Canuck147]

Hehehe, right on. I hated running out of the green stuff, cuz then you were rolling stems and seeds.

[PuravidaC]

Or seeds exploding in your face... 😆

[Beach_Town_Brit]

That pop is nostalgic though, and was always fun in a big group ... in fact I think at least one of my mates used to leave a seed in the spliff just to see who would get it.
