Rustam Kush are very resinous and sticky but have a ways to go still. They are somewhat rot-prone so labor-intensive, the flowers on all of them still have this floral laundry freshener scent going on despite not really being at all similar structurally, weird -

Hanging in there with the rest, I could chop the Waziri Repros now I suppose -

Yanked one Sholgar Friday and the other yesterday, with their browning sugar leaf tips they were done regardless of what the trichomes said, they were all milky anyway so close enough -

Still at it, haven’t chopped any more plants. Botrytis got a little ahead of me as I missed a couple of times between rainy periods I should have sprayed, but I’ve hit them all with a light peroxide solution yesterday and again today, and that seems to have slowed it back down. Glad for the dry...

Bye Bye Balkhi Repro 1, ya thick friggin’ pain in the ass…glad I pulled her now before much more rot impacted her. Gave the branches a Jorge Cervantes bath in water and peroxide -

Had a few branches on the big purple Rustam Kush get partially separated from the main stem so had to tie them up. Will likely end up taking them early for hash but there’s enough still attached to sustain them for a week or two more, anyway. Will take the two Sholgar down soon as they are...

I probably should have driven in a few more stakes to support branches here and there, but it is what it is. Wind is gusty but garden is pretty protected.

Good luck getting through this latest rain to everyone else with plants in the ground!

Still have everything in the ground. Rot is around here and there but so far it has been controllable. Still waiting for the amber trichs to show up on the ones closest to completion, like these Sholgar - Craziest plants are these Rustam Kush, 4 girls nothing like each other structurally...

Rustam Kush still slow but at least they are getting resinous - And the Balkhi Repros are doing well too; last pic is from the one that I almost killed by drowning its roots when it was in a pot, that miraculously recovered along with three others when I put them in the ground -

Everything is still up; no amber yet. Found only a few more rot spots yesterday after four days of rain so feeling pretty comfortable with continuing on deeper into the month. Will be hitting them with the Monterey Complete bacteria spray today, as I’m just not seeing caterpillars that I’d...

Time to zap that stuff. Hit the whole plant with 2 parts water 1 part peroxide. It might burn the stigma but won’t otherwise harm it.

Yup, same here. It’s hard to hold off when 95% of the trichs are milky, but gotta see some amber before chopping.

Looks like it’s my neck of the woods turn to be Ground Zero for a big rain dump this weekend. Can’t really complain too much about the September weather, we’ve had some wet days and thunderstorms but no chronic heavy fog, tropical storms or big wind. Not taking anything down yet as still no...

Muffin Tops look right about where my fastest Sholgar is, all cloudy trichs but no amber yet. I’m holding out; so far the rot has been manageable and today was the first day since it first showed up two weeks ago that I didn’t find any new spots. I did find a caterpillar who seemed in distress...

Re: hash, yeah if we were looking to make hash in a super dry fall climate in Central Asia we’d leave them up or at least leave sheaves of cut plants out until they got snowed upon, and wait to process them until mid-winter. But since we get way too much rain here, they would just turn to rotted...

Could be Waziri, it has the typically thinner colas and more airy branching. Here’s a couple pics of mine for comparison, the first one is the tallest and has stayed at 8 1/2 feet for the last month and the second one right at 8 feet for three weeks - Here are comparison pics of a Waziri...

Meet the Minister of State Security. Straight outta Stettbach, Deutschland. Three-time proven manstopper. She’s 13 now and arthritis and megaesophagus have slowed her quite a bit - but she’s still pretty quick, doesn’t take any shit from strange men, and the bite is still strong.

PVOG it’s all about B.t. one day, H2O2 the next: lather rinse repeat. Detailed daily inspection of every plant. Expect losses and manage them - you’ve got literally hundreds of bud sites on each plant, so losing one or two per day is acceptable. Worst two plants I ever had, I still managed to...

Trichs look like they are getting milky already. Definitely could be worse.
