Freaks in the sunshine

Sucked for Mom. She went out in the full burka, once. Losing her freedom to be in public without a male escort was not part of her game plan.
Great for Dad. Jeep style Daihatsu with opposing seats in back. Lots of sand to drive on, eroded mud towns to visit, and Bedouins to travel with for a couple days.
Great for kids because there were lots of us from all over the world. You were either Bubbleicious or Bubble Yum. Like Red Socks or Yankees. Depended on your connections with the bubblegum loving heathen world outside.
Great for families who wanted to save money because the Saudis paid really well, and you paid for nothing but food and Jeep style Daihatsus.

Worst fu$kin place i ever had to go to. Never again

He is looking nice for a boy, what I have read is to expect the freaky leaves to show up on the second or third generation. The F1 Berryfreak I had before only had sawtooth leaves, good luck with your cross.
For whatever reason I cannot upload pics, it tells me I must upload at least 1 pic. Maybe SiriusFourside can shed some light on that. Widows 11 with Firefox

dirtymike I was in Riyadh in the mid-late 70's. The apartments we lived in were built as if they were in a cooler climate. A/C but no insulation. Stick frame construction. Motorcycles would be stuck laying flat because kickstands would melt into the parking lot asphalt. Some sort of felt they used around concrete would smoke and become charcoal. Fire hydrants were not installed until after one of the apartment buildings burned down.
The complex was built by international labor. Not sure which country made with the specs. Fun place when you are 8 years old.

Love the freaks! I hope yours do ok with the heat! Any update on the pollen donor? I threw some freak pollen (from last year) at an early ripening fem photo starting end of last week. Fingers crossed she gets knocked up 🤞

Worst I've seen is 122⁰F in the shade.

And on the other side -40⁰C which is also -40⁰F actual, not wind chill feels like crap. It was so cold you risked freezing your eyelids shut if you blinked and your eyes were watery. And falling over on your own frozen urine is embarrassing.

I bet one could bake pizza in a cardboard box out in the sunshine!

[Rwise]

Yes it does! Last person to look at them said "I smell it but where is it?"

[dirtymike]

That's on the side close to Hades my friend. Death Valley will be 118 today with 20 % humidity. A tad warm even for cactus

Cut down another male, that makes 3 of 8. The heat is on for sure 103*F today index of 110*, watered yesterday and today. Pulled a cover screen over the tomatoes after the first heat wave they had burned badly, hope it helps the sunburn is not spreading so maybe.

The plant I gave away is a female, dude came by to tell me so and have a look at mine. He also told me his friend said "that is not weed"! Then went home and did some gooooogle studies came back and ask for a cutting, cutting rooted fine BTW.

[Rwise]

I hope my buds come out as nice! Another has shown its self as a male since I only need or want 1 it got the chop! He will make compost, help keep the soil cool!
I am being told that in 10 days give or take we will set all time records for high temps. They said it stand at 116*F now but may be as hot as 120*F. You'll find me hugging my AC unit!
