The NL seedz are starting to get moldy, I'm just writing them off as ancient seed stock and moving on. The 4 of the 5 Cotton Candy have already cracked and are into dirt, hopefully they'll poke their little heads up soon.

On the kitchen side, a bunch of the herbs have germinated (two different basils, thyme, oregano, catnip) and a couple of the peppers are up.

The last of the Cotton Candy germinated. 5/5, really fast. I stuck the NLB Auto and the BM Auto straight into 7 gallon pots this morning and shoved them under a 1K HPS. The LD Auto will join them in a couple of days. Everything else will be going into 2-gallon pots as per usual, probably this weekend for most of it. Of the two Blue Hash that cracked, one is fine, one hasn't poked its head up yet. The other three seedz are still in paper towels, with only one looking like something may pop.

Sweet score on the jar oh hash!! I love it when I find a surprise like that. Sounds like the Cotton candy might be the winners this time around, I've seen some good reviews of it recently. I look forward to seeing how those autos turn out too.

That looks tasty!

So, one of the side effects of not having run any clones for months is that I forgot my reservoir overheats if I don't have a fan on it. One of the clones wilted and died and the other three looked bad. I caught it in time I think. The warm water had also caused an algae bloom from hell, so I broke the pump and spray system down completely, scrubbed the hell out of everything, stuck the jets into an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner, and replaced all the collars with new ones. Hopefully everything will be ok now, 2 hours later...

Baywatcher how goes it? I haven't been on in a while, I've been working a fuckshitton. Looks like things aren't going horribly for you. Nice BHO looks like primo. I just finished a Northern Lights Blue auto and I gotta say im impressed. Isn't the stoniest in the world but very calming almost narcotic. Wife is loving it to keep the nausea down. Found out on Christmas that I'm having another munchkin! More free labor. Woot! ;)

Well, if you consider a 6-figure hit to household income good news, I suppose...

@TC
Yeah. Just put 5 Purple Haze seedz into paper towels, it looks like this garden is going to actually have to pay for itself. Fortunately there are people around looking for reliable caregivers.

I try to look at the postives when I can :). A 6 figure hit would really hurt, sorry to hear that for sure. I know you got the skills to help bridge the gap though. I really need to get to a state I can step things up. I don't like relying on growing for income, but if I'm going to I wanna atleast make it worth while....

Shit, i thought it was a part time hobby job. Guess not, sorry to hear that man. I hope things come around soon for ya.

Thanks! I'm not psyched about relying completely on growing for income, but I like that fact that it gives me a little flexibility on salary to know I can probably do $40K+/year legally to patients and dispensaries without having to rent a new space or anything.

Yesterday I made the dab rounds to all my friends around here to get one last smoke in before the great detox starts. I'll use synthetic urine if anything comes up in the next 45 days, but I don't want to rely on it if I can avoid it.

It's amazing how much difference location makes. When we lived in the south, my wife was regularly freaked out over small closet gardens. Up here, one of her first questions was "how many plants can we grow again?" :)

Thanks for the positive vibes, I'm still processing the whole thing (I'd worked as a software engineer for this Really Big Company for almost a decade). About twice a day, it's all I can do to hold it together. On the plus side, I've got a great resume. On the down side, I'm about to turn 50, and that's not a positive in tech unless you're in management...

Gonna stick 10 regular Hazeman POW seeds into paper towels in a bit, that will cheer me up some.

Thanks man, nice to see you again.

All 5 of the Purple Haze germinated, and went into red cups today. The one surviving Blue Hash and the OG13 went from red cups into 2-gallon pots.
