Figured I’d kick this year’s version off. Hope everyone is enjoying their 2022 harvest.

Just chasing the amber trichs! Hard to do when the strain doesn’t start flowering until September…

Took the last Rustam Kush down on Friday, she was close enough and I wasn’t going to push her through another storm. Rough trimmed her while still standing. Some gaps on the colas from rot removal; this strain is late-flowering and I could have done a better job spraying. So that’s a wrap on...

PVOG, glad the seed-making tips worked for you. Currently chopping the third of the four Waziri Repros. I’m doing a rough trim in place for everything but the lowest branches - Then after a quick preliminary dip in a bucket they get a Cervantes bath with two cups of peroxide and ten gallons...

People keep telling me you can just jam them in a glass of water and roots will eventually show up. I’ve whiffed the two times I tried that, so I got nuthin’ LOL

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...
