The buds off those plants are not the best, they taste decent "earthy" The buds need 3 baggies minimum to somewhat cover the scent, mild buzz! I have only grown out 3 seeds of it so far.
I am seriously thinking about either crossing it with trainwreck or sweet tooth, If the plants did not come out black purlple I would have just tossed the seeds, But it is definately stinky and it's got great color! I like the mom a heck of alot more than I like her daughters..

Nice
with what do you think you will cross?
I think I would do sweet tooth or maybe do both and see what you like best

I wanna cross that purple,with sweet tooth or trainwreck.

I have 75 different seeds im planting in MI. I was gona start them in papertowel, and then go to fox farm soil in a cup. What is a good outdoor growing soil that isnt to expensive as im planting alot of seeeds. any advice appreciated.thanks guys

your best bet is to make your own soil with peat moss,perlite,worm castings and anything else you want to put in there.

Have you guys seen the forcast for 7 days?....anyone planting this weekend? keep in mind we will still have a couple more frosts. IT'S ALMOST TIME BOYS AND GIRLS!!!!!

the outdoor garden is made and the fencing goes up this weekend. Rain tomorrow and sunday will help, and by this time next week I will have my girls in buckets and ready for the raspberry bushes to start filling out and its off to the races.
Vanilla Kush-Cole Train-pineapple chunk and a few White widow clones are heading to the field.

Ya never know what the weather will bring
All you can do is hope that she will be nice to us and give us good weather and rain when we need it
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE

Well People I think my girles will get a new home next weekend
The frost SHOULD be over still a little cool at night but running out of head room (That is a good thing I think)

Good to hear your runnin out of head room greendave! I must say it is nice to finally see those nights staying above 40. Next week I am going to dedicate alot of time diggin holes and preppin!

I think I may follow your lead Dave and get mine out before my planned June 1st target date. It just dosent seem right to let all this nice weather go to waste. "Overgrow Michigan!!!"

I noticed a helicopter flying overhead my town today and I was wondering, would they maby be out looking for people out in the middle of the woods planting? It is a nice warm sunny Saturday, the perfect day for it.

I doubt it

So, I trek all the way out to my spot this morning ready to dig and amend the soil. Not even two shovel fulls in it starts pouring down rain. I wait a little while under a tree for it to stop and no end seems to be in sight, so I leave and decide to come back another day. As soon as I get home it stops! Mother nature is not being very motherly to me

best time to plant outside is when it rains so it covers your tracks. Mother nature is trying to help you not harm you, after all, you are planting a native plant in her soil really giving her back what she has had in the past.

Cold snap comming this weekend I may wait 1 more week to put my girls out

ugh rain coming too

Hey boys I was wondering if anyone threw any babies out into the ground this weekend? Well the same ol issue has come up again, I have a week or 2 max to dig 25 holes. I got out this weekend and dug 4 holes and filled in with homemade soil mix. I will not dig a hole and place a plant in immediately " thats close to attempted murder with all the deer around" No I must dig at least 1 week prior 2 weeks preferd. I told myself 10 years ago to start diging in march to span it all out but "whatever". tomorrow I will post some pics I want you guys to post a couple as well "only michigander pics though"

wel the newbie tip for the week is????? Watch your soil!! Here in michigan the soil changes fast in some places. I can dig 3 feet and find 3 different types of soil most of which my plants will not like. Soil is no more important than the sun, The sun is no more important than the soil when it comes to having a respectible plant oh and then there is that water thing.. ALL 3 must work together. Watch your dirt!!

mine are in with 1" of soil on top for a few weeks more. human hair keeps deer away.

Monday I will start planting!! Dug up 5 holes yesterday, getin it done.
