Hi @spankyjr1
Sadly big bad wolf that i was gifted didn’t make it past germination last summer 
So cant tell you
What your asking sorry
My back is getting stronger 
Still doing my exercise program
My latest has been my calf muscle rupture
Its been about 7 weeks now slowly coming right
Also my ankle is in quite a lot of pain on the same leg 
Just back from my trip to Australia
Visit my father
Bad timing with a ruptured calf
Traveling on planes trains and busses
Oh well
Good to be home

Hi everyone
Im still with the living 
What a journey that trip was with a ruptured calf muscle
Traveling through customs hobbling onto planes trains and busses with crutches
No pot to smoke
Dang
I know you all been concerned about me lol
Got to see my father my sister a few nieces and nephews great nieces and nephews
A few old buddies I hung out with in my teens
Leg still giving me grief
Had a few ultrasounds and an xray
Onwards and upwards
My exercise program still dominating my life making gains so thats good
Yesterday I dropped my summer seasons seeds
I know its late hope they play catch up
My auto I left behind is still alive small
And just the other day it rained 
and because its in flower it got bud rot
So it really doesn’t matter what time of year you have flowers if it rains check it for bud rot
I didnt see that coming at all
Oh well
I cut the rot off and here is what’s left
Gave here a drink and a feed
Upside is ill have fresh herbs for xmas
yay
Cheers

Here is a clone of a previous plant i grew few summers ago that my mate gave back to me from under lights
His lights are not sinked with the natural daylight hours so it goes into flowering stage in what’s ment to be veg stage
So it will most likely go back to veg then back to flowering for the final count down of summer
Makes the plant go really leafy and the buds small
I might just see how mature these buds get and cut them off or chop the bush all together

We’re doing alright. Some shit health problems but nothing an old hillbilly can’t deal with.
Hope you are feeling somewhat better today.

Well @MoBilly
I sure hope those health issues dont get on top of you
Crests and troughs are ok
Staying in the troughs arnt much fun even for us hardy hillbillies
Im getting stronger and my calf muscles healing slowly 
Getting some late spring fem seeds down
They all grew tails
Ive got 6 strong seedlings
3 are still thinking about popping out the soil and 4 didnt make it so i dropped some more be interesting how they turn out starting so late
I grew a purple crack last summer dropped the seed just before xmas 
and that turned out well
Cheers

Kool-aid was the first to rise and was going fine
Then it died all of a sudden 
I thought its stem broke in the breeze
Looks like it got stem rot with closer inspection
Was being ever so careful too
Oh well
4 others didn’t want to grow and 3 are still thinking about it
6 still going strong
Of the 4 that didn’t make it
I just dropped some more + a couple new ones
Why not

Thought i better make a show
And give a little update
Out of the seeds i dropped on the 24th November 2025
Here is the list
Alaskan purple
Ice cream cake
Pandora
Dream queen
Kool-aid breath
Candy land
Gorilla glue ( old seed )
Blackberry moonrock x sour diesel
Kool-aid breath x sour diesel
Fat bastard
Ultimate
Mimosa
Blackberry moonrock x gorilla cookie
Only 5 made it through even after a solid start and seeds popping 24 hrs after there soak
So ofcourse i dropped more
And got them to there pottles of soil
And again they died
Whats going on i thought 
Too wet drying out
Not sure
I had a little scratch around and the tap roots had stopped growing 
Mmmmm
Then i see these almost microscopic clear wiggling things
I bet they been eating the tap roots
I used my last 2 pandora seeds so thats a strain i won’t get to experience
I did grow it last summer but it only grew a inch high and flowered so i pollenated her with some voodoo Larry dust and got seeds
Ive got
Mimosa growing
Fat bastard
Blackberry moonrock x gorilla cookie
Blackberry moonrock x sour diesel
Kool-aid breath x sour diesel
Now the Kool-aid is just hanging in there the stem got damaged just below the true leaves 
Its bent over
It hasnt died so there still hope right
But a dropped another seed just incase lol
So in regards to the soil with the wiggly things in it i through it out and for the 3rd attempt they will have new soil ready soaked and waiting
What a late late start to my grow season
Did i mention that i wasn’t going to do regs this season
Well 5 voodoo Larry seeds that i created last summer found there way into water and so did 5 voodoo Larry x sour diesel seeds i created last summer 
Not only that i was given a share Blackberry clone needing a home
Well i couldn’t say no its a little ahead of mine thats for real
In a big pot it goes
Other than that the laughing budda x black sugar clone my grow mate gave me
Another one of my creations from a few summers ago thats small and gone to flower 
and at this stage not looking like its going back to veg oddly
Might harvest it at xmas
Then there is my auto ive had growing since August that got a dash of rot a while back that caught me out
Im thinking ill chop it soon so its ready to smoke for xmas day and use the pot for up and coming plants

They were pretty tiny @Budbrother
Seemed transparent and pointy both ends from memory
Not had them before
The tip of the tap root was stunted curled back up on itself and a pale orange colour
I biffed that soil out and started again
With some fresh organic seed raising mix and fine pumice
So we will see how we do with this lot
What ever i end up with will be it for the summer season now getting late
As it is it will be interesting what i end up with at harvest time on each plant
Need a easy grow season
Is there such a thing lol

Hello everyone
Hope you all had a great Christmas
Spending time with family and friends
Keeping warm indulging in some nice herbs
About 10 days ago I harvested my juicy moro tush
In time xmas
Got a little too dry that can happen easy enough this time of year
So as I planned back in the beginning of August when I dropped my seed to have fresh herbs for xmas
And that is what I did
Sat on My verandah and smoked some through my mighty
Very nice
Got a good buzz happening just sat and enjoyed the summers evening
As i settled into the buzz I did notice my mind starting to have crazy random thoughts and visions
Maybe it needed more time to mature
Not complaining
Was very nice thank you to make this possible
Not a huge return enough to get me through til my other plants are harvested though
Cheers
