West Coast Vaper

Yes. Sorry that I'm taking a gap on diaries at the moment but I'm not taking a gap on growing. I've had ups and downs growing @Bay Seeds Anastasia 99 Autoflower but germination on my side has been pretty much 100%. 3 plants from 5 usually turn out good for me bearing in mind I use Reservation Soil (whatever soil I come up with). I've grown in 10l, 20l, 40l and 100l in a shade house and best results have been the 40l. 20l ok'ish.

Kinda. I think I'll be concentrating on growing rather than explaining though. Kind of pressing the reset button on my side.

Ok. I'm not the best grower and I've never claimed to be one but I work hard with limited funds and the generosity of a few local breeders to follow a passion. Yes. A Passion. Due to having to explain myself to total fucknuts on social platforms because they know more about arrangements and the genetics than I have with the breeders. I am privileged that I receive fire genetics to play with, most of the time gifted. I run diaries on various platforms giving my grow routine and observations only to be attacked and told I'm lying because so and so breeder does not do such and such. What the fuck. I'm doing a diary for so and so. Mutherfucker. Going forward for now I will only be posting pics with no credits. I will credit the breeder in one way or another. Over and Out.

Not yet. I heard via our bush telegraph that someone was using this soil on a regular basis. I added perlite to start then... Hang on. I'll give the whole spcheel soon. But yes there has been feed involved. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

As l was culling the male's I've been upgrading 10l pots to 20l. A bit difficult on photo shoots as plants are blending into background plants. A few plants showing slight nutrient issues but nothing I'm worried about just yet. Busy wording a summary of the grow up till now considering this grow is using R25/40l soil. Update on that shortly.

Another male.

Moved the pots into the shade house. Result of one after 4 days.

Tyre garden is an experiment. I've been trying to grow in the open out here for the past 4 years with no success. I have gotten pretty far this round and learnt a bit for next season's attempt. Considering moving the 20l pots into the shade house. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

I've given them a bit of gardeners gold dust and an occasional SeaGro spray. Got some bonemeal in the cupboard. My wife heading into the big city tomorrow, gonna try get elemental blend on the limited route, worst case, some molasses. Don't really know what to add. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

Tyre garden. From 17 planted there are 8 photoperiods left. These are the fittest of the fittest ladies I can guarantee. They putting up with the fight of their life out here. These girls look solid in the morning but by 4pm they in survival mode. I've been to a little-known town called Hot az Hell in the Northern Cape, it was hot. Well, it's hot here and very, very windy. They looking like they need something. The ones that were battling outside went into shade house and pulled a few males.

3 more males. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

West Coast climate a real test for genetics.

Two of the 20l pots doing me proud.

These are examples of heat stress my side. Hot day, hot wind and pots dried out fast. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

It's been hot on the reservation. I watered at 6am and missed the midday watering. Braai day . 7pm watering, the plants are thirsty. These plants are under 60% shade cloth. Dreading February. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk
