Came out this morning to find the SF back among the living. She looked hung over, and I spent half an hour clearing all the sick or dead leaves. But overall, it looks like it is growing again. Thanks for telling me to wait @MariJan , I was ready to chop it the day after I moved it. Pretty...

Most of those were bigger buds that got chopped up for the bowl.

I trim them wet, straight from the branch to the bowl. I clip the buds off the stems over the bowl, so they are smaller and get trimmed closer. If I want a pic of a large bud for BOM or something, I would trim it by hand.

Nice. Not too different from the temps in southern VA.

The buds do get some abuse getting rolled around by the rubber paddles. Doesn't change the taste, though : )

Here are some. I used to go back and hand trim them to remove the rest of the sugar leaves, but I couldn't tell the difference in the smoke so stopped bothering.

I have the 16 inch, but I could easily have gone with the 13 inch for what I trim. I don't bother removing the fan leaves completely, just sort of mow with scissors 1/4" to 1/2" from the buds before dumping it into the trimmer. I will try just removing the fan leaves. That might be even faster.

Pretty sure AC Infinity, Vivosun and iPower are all selling identical bowls. I know iPower blades fit all three.

It's weird how the pistils are all darkening at once. I even saw some amber trichomes this morning. If it survives, it will be difficult deciding when to harvest.

If it's not actually a dead plant, it's doing a really good impression. I sprayed it with water to see if I could get the leaves to inflate again like it did in the rain, but no luck. It isn't in the way, so I'll leave it there until I'm sure.

It rained all night and most of the morning, and the SF looked like it was recovering. Then the rain stopped and the sun came out, and the poor plant shriveled up again. All the pistils turned dark and curled overnight as well, but the trichomes are still mostly clear. I will be surprised if I...

Sounds familiar, but I can't place it. Pretty nice sound from that amp.

I ordered some garden poles and assorted connectors to make a frame, and a couple of 4X4 nets. It will be fun getting the nets positioned while standing on a ladder. Hopefully I won't hit my head on the lights and set my hair on fire... I dug up the Supafreak and moved her out of the...

I'm finding thrips on pretty much every leaf now. I've got some Dr. Zymes coming tomorrow. The rosemary oil mix with added alcohol isn't doing much for some reason. I guess they are used to that stuff now. The plant doesn't seem to mind the bites, though. It just keeps growing and drinking like...

Got rid of the raised garden bed to make room for the machines they are bringing in to dig the pool. Now I just have to move the Supafreak. No way it will be finished before they come. It has some cracked branches, I believe from an aggressive lawn mowing daughter as well as losing some buds on...

Nice plant. The Virginia Creeper I have trying to peal the siding off my house is like that. Pretty sure it likes diesel fuel and weed killer...

The GOG has thrips. Looks like they've been active a few weeks and I just noticed them. The shop just gets too much use to effectively guard against the things I think. I sprayed and put up sticky traps, of course, but there's no way I will get rid of them with that monster plant sitting in the...

Grow catnip in various places and the cats might ignore the weed?

Sometimes no pollen is really low pollen. Live, green pollen sacs are too moist for the pollen to escape when it opens. You can clip the branches and dry them - I put them in a box in the fridge. After that crushing the pollen sacs on a screen will produce some pollen.

Some pics of the seedlings and the dirt might help...
