Tika’s Garden of Earthly Delights #2

[Tika]

After 24 hr soak: did another rinse and roll ( in vermiculite) and into the shotgun terrarium that I prepared with wet/rinsed perlite and water mist. 4 cakes in, 4 now in next soak to repeat=8 cakes. Also made a mesh frame for drying (funky) AND finished 8 females into 5 gal smart pots. Waiting on 8 regular seeds/plants from Honeysticks to declare sex. Now will need to mist & fan 4x a day.
terrarium in what I hope is a perfect light situation.
to round up today’s activity got a fed x delivery from a forever friend💋🥃
cheers ya all.

nothing like a good double neet before bed , I love a good whiskey/scotch , my wife asked me to stop for beer so while at package store I noticed they had a cabinet with whiskey in it so I was checking it out the cheapest bottle was a aged Kentucky whiskey for 700 dollars, I tried some bullet rye this summer wow was it good

[Tika]

oldjarhead100 yes- nothing like a hefty scotch to warm the bones. Sometimes a shot of brandy on a winter morning is good too🤗

[SoOrbudgal]

Tika how long does it take to see spores? This is just fascinating to me weird science experiment I so dig it. Thanks for sharing and now go sit a watch the sunset

[Tika]

SoOrbudgal ideally I should see some form of shroom by the end of this week. I gave found that temperature during initial month long dark cabinet time is important for the mycelium to grow. Then after birthing / terrarium time light is important. I assume I have enough light🧐 thanks for following- yup weird science alright. And since I love mushroom soup maybe grow the gourmet kind from a kit one day as I am to chicken to pick from the wild🤣

[oldjarhead100]

there are not that many poisonous mushrooms in New England ,and I still wont take a chance on them im with ya girl no wild mushrooms for me , I was going to seed a log but decided against it , did you watch this weeks 60 minutes they had a bit about using cilasibum(this is spelled so bad spell check cant help lol)to treat all kinds of stuff

[Farmall]

oldjarhead100. Good presentation on the 60 minutes show. Those folks were quite positive. Almost makes me think a whole shitload more of us should go in for the guided tuneup !

[Tika]

8 “nut” cakes in. Looks like those Xmas cheese balls. Now....the wait

[Tika]

Can’t post image. New up grade on tech and new stuff? On GWE? Anyway there are 8😎

[Tika]

There...huge as it is🥴

[Tika]

And the line up @ 34 days from seed: Peyote Critical, Bruce Banner, Black Sugar- all in 5 gal pots all feminized. The front pots are regular seeds from Honeysticks waiting to declare sex.

[kingfish]

Tika, what is the percentage of male plant do you get from the honeysticks genetic tests?

[Tika]

Hard to say kingfish. Especially since some herm. No higher than 50% I’d say.

[Tika]

The line up: Bruce Banner, Peyote Critical, Black Sugar all transplanted to 5 gal pots - all feminized seeds
front pots Grease Monkey x Wizard Punch by the Honeysticks. All regular seeds and waiting for sex
all 34 days from seed put.
have a great day all
🤗

[9fingerleafs]

your grow is so clean and tidy

[Tika]

9fingerleafs as I said before I OCD a lot as I sleep too close to chaos. oldjarhead100 talks about his dirt floor and I always laugh having more than once zen raked my campsite🙃 however: although I clean my studio before I paint I make a huge mess when I paint I mean huge! Plus having long haired dogs and open doors ...on and on. I feel the plants are less likely to attract bugs if it’s clean.

[Tika]

[Tika]

forward March! 44 days from putting seed🦇🎩🐝🦇

[Tika]

@Farmall
YUP totally I own that. Can’t wear pants with buttons or zippers either. If I get stuck pulling my hoodie on I start to do a panic dance.

[Spidermite]

Tika I grow in 10 and 15 gallon pots imagine my hesitation.

[Tika]

@Spidermite...for sure! Granted my view is not science just personal hysteria in confinement’s love the idea of BIG pots! Covet & envy

[Tika]

Cookies done, tincture done (190 proof one month shake) and a gift to gluten free friend ( damn that gum is expensive...15 bucks a little bag). Ceramic leaf by friend/ great hand made soaps by friend
passing gifts on happily. And now to super glue my thumb together having rasped doing lemon rind 😶
cookies: butt ugly boobies. Bud & kief now gluten free....except for vanilla....wtf

[Canuck147]

Beautiful of you!
I used to bake gluten free for my son when he was a teenager - it was like 14 different ingredients - as well as xanthan gum, guar gum as well.

[Tika]

Obviously not getting the new options
much love

[Tika]
