Well shit.... I guess it has been about 8 months since I posted in here, and a LOT has happened between now and February.
Instead of giving you all a long, verbose update I'm just going to go bare bones here and say this.
I'm still alive and growing, and things are going well for me. Between managing my gardens and work I got very busy with the coming of spring, and found myself online less and less (also living out in the boonies without internet and cell service kind of makes that a bit hard), and sadly the journal was abandoned.
I'll update with some pictures and information on the last two crops I pulled down this spring in the next few days (probably just a quick overview and a couple pictures, maybe a strain review or two) but after that I am moving on to the next project.
Been dabbling around in the breeding game, phenohunting and crossing the best, making fun little polyhybrids to further explore and play with this winter and in the future. Just on Saturday I actually just popped 160 total beans of 4 different polyhybrids that I chose to pheno hunt and further stabilize. On the menu this run we have my Blulight F2 (Headlights Kush [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] x Blueberry Headband [HASHTAG]#3[/HASHTAG]) [Really happy with how the F1 came out. Best of all worlds. Medium sized plant with compact internode lengths, but large hazy spear shaped buds. Yielded well, smelled verrrry berry like, and the effect was energizing and expansive. Crossed the keeper female with a very stinky male.] ; Headlights Kush [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] x AutoMazar, Headlights Kush [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] x Fantasmo Express, Headlights Kush x White Widow. Really hoping I find some keepers in the bunch.
Those little beaners just popped.... well at least 80% of them at this point anyway, and are currently being planted into 1 gallon bags full of a recycled living soil. Took my root balls from my last run, along with all of my stems and leaves, and composted them with EWC and enzymes/beneficial microbes in 55 gallon tote over the summer, turning it and inoculating occasionally. After some re amending, and some further composting, just like magic I have myself a healthy and bio diverse soil once more! .... We'll go more in depth on all that later....
Currently elbow deep in planting, but I just figured I'd throw out a line and let you guys know that I'm back and here to stay. Hope everybody had a safe and successful summer, and better yet a bountiful harvest season.
In the mean time, enjoy yourselves a little Dutch Passion Auto Ultimate.....
Cheers friends!
