Last post was last Wednesday, and the typhoon came down that night and Thursday.
It was a monster this time, and my area around has a lot of big trees down, that iron fence is all smashed up, we last power and internet on Thursday night, and there was a fair amount of rain but not huge.
Luckily it passed fast, and Friday was just a cloudy day with a drop of rain.
That wind was fierce!
Then I got sick again, and have been in the hospital since the weekend.
That's why I haven't posted for a while, cause the internet here is filtered, haha!
I'll be here for a while longer, too.
Was worried about the plants, in the semi-dark, and while it's not hot, after a while they'll still need watering.
Found out it's possible to get 'leave' from the hospital (I had other things I needed to do, too).
So managed to get to the garden yesterday (Monday) and pull them out, plus a quick water.
I couldn't put all the ropes back, so there's just one guiding rope on the south,
and they're all kind of hanging over that for now.
This is a rough update, with three quick pics.
Spring-Summer Grow -- Maria's Haze Heaven Hacienda!
Day 230: 135V + 95F
Wow, day 95 flower already, is ... 13.5 weeks for the Grail x ThaiFrican, and maybe 12.5 weeks for the other girls -- SSSTN and the Grail.
They are hitting the harvest window.
Haven't had any time at all to prep my hangers, but it won't take much.
Whereas before I was planning for several big plants, now the volume of flower is much less.
Super Silver Sour Thai Nevilles
This is 'Sticky', no pic of 'Fluffy' who looks similar, just a bit slimmer.
Weird, how did that happen? Last time 'Fluffy' had big puffy rounded buds, now she's skinnier?!?!
Just these two main colas -- one each, but they are a decent size at least.
Grail (fast pheno) x ThaiFrican
This is a cola at the back, she still has a few more, plus that damaged main cola that's still hanging in there (and almost hanging down to the ground...)
Grail (NLD pheno)
The Grail buds got quite full in shape in the end.
And this girl has a number of colas like this one here, plus little ones everywhere, too.
These poor plants, they look like they've been to hell and back!
As I said earlier, their calyx growth is strange, all very small.
But I can see the trichome development is still there.
I'm just going to let them roll along for now, they still have some growing in them, as you can see.
Seven SSSTN (Sticky) x ThaiFrican
Meanwhile, the little SSSTN (Sticky) x ThaiFrican seed-stock plants look so cool!
Yes, they're all so small, as expected, but their flower growth looks normal (compared to the big girls).
And they all look like they have some serious stickiness to them.
The 'Pearl' pheno is branching off everywhere like crazy, a couple are quite tight (for hazy sativas), and a couple are in-between, one is looking haggard, with one getting a fair bit bigger and slower.
So there's going to be some nice flower from these girls too.
Just such a pity I had seven/seven girls from those seeds, and not one boy for pollen...
I will just have to try again next round!
Peace and Love,
