Gonna move out to the country, eat a lot of peaches. . .

I love these two guys. Crazy that Clarence is gone.

Grass hoppers have been munching on the Hurricane Head seedlings. I have about one and a half left. I sprayed with Neem.

It rained during the night, so I didn't water the Peach. Did spray with Neem. They will be going into holes I dug for the Spring crop, but didn't use. I will have to freshen them up a little before I transplant.

I've had some questions about my strains again, so I will try to explain.

Hurricane Head is Bag Seed Tester 2 X Bag Seed Tester 1. HH {FP} is Big & Stinky {BST2 FP1} X BST1 {FP4}. HH {GN} is BST2 {GN} X BST1 {GN} Both my HH plants in the Spring crop were males, so I don't know how these will grow out. I did have two in my Fall/Winter Seed Test. Bug Topped and The Finger. The Finger had some male flowers that I didn't see until chop, so I made seeds from both plants. I will grow out The Finger X Bug Topped, just to see what they do.

Peach is Big & Stinky {BST2 FP1} X BST2 {FP3}

Rotten Stinking Bastard is Big & Stinky {BST2 FP1} X BST2 {FP2} I did grow one of these in my Spring Crop. Was pretty woody. Stems and stalk were all very thick. Frost hurt it, so I can't really judge the smoke too harshly until I grow it without cold.

Little Sister is BST2 {GN} X BST2 {GN}

CP1 and Slo2 are from a cross my BIL made that is Sativa dominate. The Slo2 tend to be tall and slender. These were grown in 2015.

CP1 {BP2} X CP1 {BP3} and CP1 {BP2} X Slo2 {BP} were grown in 2016.

Big & Stinky X CP1. This is Bagseedtester2 X BIL strain. It had the most bulk of any in the Spring crop.

Powernap X Sinmint Cookies {BIL} X B&S X CP1. This was the two plants that got killed back by cold. We had two PN X SMC and they were both male. So I don't know how the strain does in flower.

Ass Cheese is Donkey Kong X Cindy's Blue Cheese. A buddy gave me these seeds. I grew them out in the Spring Crop. Nice bud formation.

Gorille de Raisin is Donkey Kong X Grapish BS. The same buddy gave me these seeds also. The most striking strain in the Spring crop. But it did get bud worms pretty bad.

PN X SMC {PPS} X Gorille de Raisin.

PN X SMC {PPS} X Ass Cheese

I'm sure I'm missing a bunch, but that is all I can think of for now.

Only 1 of 4 of the Little Sister are up. It's been long enough they should all be up. Also 1 of 4 of the Gorille de Raisin is up. Just cracking the soil as I left for work.

I added soil to some holes I had dug for the Spring crop, but didn't use. 2 1/2 gallons per. Got 6 holes done.

Also built a rain catcher near the holes.

Seedlings I started for BIL. 18 of 20 sprouted. {and I replanted 2 HH seeds in each of the two pots that didn't sprout}

Looks nice
Lately I've been mixing half azamax half neem

A quick report before I get back to the trail.

All 4 of the replanted HH seeds {for BIL} are up. Small grasshoppers were doing a number on one of the B&S X CP1. Didn't have any Neem with me and won't be able to get back until Friday.

4 of 4 of Gorille de Raisin are up. I moved them to the marshgrass. Sprayed them and all the surrounding area with Neem.



Still only 1 of 4 of Little Sister. And I knocked over one of the pots, so. . . . Also moved this one to marshgrass.



And the grasshoppers finished off the half ate Hurricane Head, so I'm down to one.

This is the first weed related work I have done {other than popping seeds} this season. I have over 15 strains I want to run, but I don't have the time to do all of them. Will have to make some hard decisions.

A couple of weeks ago when I was hiking, I planted 9 seeds directly into the ground. Went back this week and had two sprouts. Neither looked very good.

This trip I packed in some soil mix and time release ferts. Also soaked a handful of Rotten Stinking Bastard seeds for 24 hours. Most of them were showing white this morning when I put them in soil. I redid the three holes from last trip, and dug 3 six foot trenches. If a quarter of them live, I will have too many for the space.

Grasshoppers got the last Little Sister I had going. I won't try to replant any of them. This BST grow was just killing time until my real season started. And since I have four Gorille de Raisin above ground, I guess it's getting real. {I planted these to replace the four I started for the BIL that are not looking great. But he said those would be alright, so it looks like I have started my season}

My sole remaining Hurricane Head.

If I can work out the time, I'm going to transplant the four Peach in the morning before work.

I added leaves around the plants I'm caretaking for the BIL. Makes them harder to see. Or so I hope.
Edit: zoom in to see the plants closer. The first four are the puny GdR. The next four are Ass Cheese, then 8 Big & Stinky X CP1. Not sure how good you can see to the end, but there is two older and four younger Hurricane Head.

Had I mentioned that I have had some problems with grasshoppers?
