Testing...well hell..can’t post last shots of plants -they keep getting rejected but I can post others so here is my beloved blue lab, my pea shoots and diode concerns with the platinumLED p600s. Heading into my flip I’m in a yank. Will be back with the state of the eight
hugs all around

[oldjarhead100]

do those tops grow back ,can you replace those Diodes?

[Tika]

WAHOOOOO! Able to post again!
So: last day of transition feed via GH/GWE schedule. Unhinged lights to clean glass and noticed wonky diodes in varying amounts on each light. Called PlatinumLED about it, sent email, waiting to hear back. All lights and hardware refreshed for level.
Topped 2x, LST, 1st defol. 2 plants split in lst, so two tellers but will be under their own light and the rest @ appx 24” from base of pot.
4 DoubleCookie x Wizard Punch
2 MerlinsRide
still showing female but checking daily for herm.
1 Jock horror
1 Jack Herer
Both feminized.
gotta brag to post from Honeysticks -on I stagram...next post- pats are always nice hope it’s ok to share🤔
i love veg as the time is so forgiving..I can feed at night or when I choose. Not so in flower...need to feed early as I can to avoid humidity so the yank is on for the next months...hope to flip by Feb 1.
oldjarhead100 yes- Pea Shoots can grow again from the cut but they are not as robust. I will pitch the rooting soil into the back yard for bird good and germinate again.
wherever you are stay warm & safe. We have rain coming again...no California person should bitch although the fire areas are so so vulnerable.
Brag coming next
love and a warm hug to you all

[oldjarhead100]

I'm going to have to order some of those Merlins Ride seeds I hear that name and I picture taking a hit and floating off to,to,to lol

[Tika]

So there is a screen shot of my brag from @the_honeysticks and the additional input
”Love the report. Your magic cake was unreal!!!”
”Everyone’s asking if we have cuts of your pheno lol”
And...my diode issue...

elated to post and “it’s a Wrap”

stay warm

[oldjarhead100]

If growers house will replace a t5 for a ballast the they should replace the diodes ,Unfortunately I had to buy an extra so I could send the other out but it came back great

[oldjarhead100]

Thats some brag wow ,you do seem to do some amazing grows for them ,always nice to be recognized for your efforts

[Tika]

helloooo out there!
first: been very down and out with some ( assholekickass flu bug both of us) 2 weeks flat out. Recovering. Husband and I missed work for the first time in 20 years. No big deal just sayin.
3 weeks from the flip DoubleCookie x WizardPunch, MerlinsRide ( Honeysticks) JockHorror (1 old seed) Jack Herer freebie and 3 Purple Moby Dick for outside.
Diodes blacking out on platinumled P600 s so bit it and ordered 4 new ones...brown rice til July.
Still don’t have energy to haul boxes up stairs but will get there.
in the mean time sun is out, bright and brilliant and thinking of you as always

[Tika]

Too kind @alltatup🤗. That was a shot gift of Scotch ( good 👁).

[alltatup]

Tika I totally see the girl in you. She's like totally alive.

[oldjarhead100]

I am probably going to misspell the names but when I get sick I will take these echinasha with all but I make teas out of these
if I have a head cold I take eyebrite
if its in the chest Mullien
and if the flu elder flowers

I am so glad you are feeling better

The sun is not out ,the house is swaying in the wind and it might I say might get up to 30 today lol
To bad you can't bow up some of that Cali air

[Tika]

Thank you oldjarhead100 😘 sending you some Cali Sun Shine

[ZigZag]

HA! oldjarhead_ sounds like we're in the same boat_ Spring is still looking a long ways off for us too_ but it did get up to 28 F today and tonight going back down to -10 F. Liking that glowing wood stove right now for sure_ Time will pass, Spring will come, just later for us.... Be well!

[Tika]

Thanks for checking in folks. Sometimes my posts “go to Jesus” and just wanted to know if I’m still in the zone🤓🐾🤓

[ZigZag]

You're still here on my end_ always look forward to your posts_ but I've been pretty lax lately. Apologies if I've been in the shadows. Work and harvest time have been keeping me real busy. Looks like you're gonna get some stretch from those ladies you're growing now. Looking good!

[Tika]

ZigZag hopefully stretch is done. Did topping & LST. Dogs: yarn coming; they look foofoo but are actually “gun dogs”-look foofoo BUT are yes: smart ( the three have done AKC agility, Obedi and Rally.
And Nose work. I used to drive every Wednesday 2 hours south to bathe and groom...wait for it....36 Papillons..and drive home. Was paid 500$ and a second shelf Chardonnay. Not too small not to big. Only one needs serious grooming and his dad is the first Phelean Champion...ages 12+ and 10+. Yes shed.. please don’t get a labroduddal screwed up breed. Yes I have hair in my bud shunned by many...the other many could give acshit. I know the hair is clean as yes I do so groom my own😜 I will take a Papillon over non allergic breed ANYDAY. You can see them in Rennisance paintings ( as Spaniels their heritage)...Bits (The erect ear) told my husband he had a opposum in his paint drawer...true and husband air walked.
Ok to be I. The shadow...just glad you are there

[alltatup]

Jesus hasn't snatched you up yet, though I don't know what happened to your posts...

Get a flu shot!!! It can't hurt!!!

[starramus]

Hey you're not spammin Jeezus are ya?

[oldjarhead100]

a fellow scotch lover , I keep two kinds of scotch in my cabinet really good single malt with a long age to it and Jamasons just in case I want more than one lol

[RagWeedDWC]

Bourbon...... sometimes a Budweiser chaser, when its cheap bourbon.

[alltatup]

Riesling--German Riesling.

[ZigZag]

Those little guys are pretty cute.....do you groom them yourself? Looks like something you need to stay on top of with that breed. We've been thinking of getting a canine buddy too, be nice to have one again but can't decide on a breed.....smart, trainable, non allergenic, not too big or too small-_ oh yeah and something that won't eat my plants! Got any suggestions?

[Tika]

oldjarhead100. ClanMcGregor scotch ( 16$ at the Drug Store) Mid Liner..and no we are not drunk...but stable. My grandfather (Poppy) kept a bottle in fridge for heart issues. Heavy hitter Wild Turkey Rye.
Thanks...many thanks for staying close.❤️🥃❤️ PS have bird and cat too. Would love a tortise (with whom I have connection) but won’t out live it....so have to pass
Stay warm buddy

[RagWeedDWC]

My wife brought a labor-doodle to hang with my hunting dogs.....Little sucker has them all cowed.

[ZigZag]

Thats one of the breeds my wife has been pushing for_ the Labradoodle...The "doodle" has your hunting dogs cowed...I'd like to see that! how big is it?
And hey_ oldjarhead100- we have eagles like most places have sea gulls so there are attack birds in the trees around here all the time_ mostly they eat the neighbors cats or fish. I took an injured one to the vet a few years ago_ it was really messed up so I caught it, put it in the trunk and took it in to get looked at. definitely had a broken wing and other stuff too. When I took it out of the trunk it grabbed me around the wrist and I couldn't get it off- the vet had to come and help! no injuries and at least he didn't get me with that beak! And it was released back into the wilds about 6 weeks later.

[Tika]

Well...”fertigating” -feeding ( I don’t feed plain water ever)...this is MerlinsRide @ 25 days from flip. She (2 plants) I’d throwing up bling where the JockHorror and JackHerer and the DoubleCookie x Wizard Punch not manifestinf bling. I mY not get huge yields...or large yields but dense bud works for me.
Will need my marching instructions for next germination as these will be done in ...2 nd week of April...I think.
Dont know who the care giver is...Coopers Hawk or Red Tail Hawk ...will google it
cheers

[Potted]

Stunning pictures Tika, just stunning, as are all of your pics. Luv the hawk,it cuts down on chipmunks I bet! Lol

[Tika]

Potted. HA. We have ground squirrels, opossums, skunk ( thank god) grey squirrels... no chipmunks (only when fishing)
🤗 and thank you for your compliment. Pretty blurry with the cell phone rush . Was a Coopers Hawk...occasionally we get a Paragon falcon. Then every heron, crow, seagull, starling, Finch goes totally BATSHIT in warning....it’s pink mist from the sky laced with feathers.
Took a break after the feeding and went (5 minutes) to Morro Bay, California for a visual break
