Merry Christmas everyone.

I give a lot of free samples out of the stuff I grow. I regularly give out sample packs of a little bit of every strain I have on hand.
I sent a sample pack home with a buddy of mine a few days ago.
He just messaged a little bit ago.
Said his wife believes this may be the best weed she has ever had in her life.
She is particularly fond of the Skunk Monkee.
(Banana Mango x Chocolate Skunk), which is one of my accidental bag seed crosses.
I have popped 4 or 6 of those seeds, and have found a couple different phenos so far.
It smells like wasp spray. Potent medicine.

I switched another barrel out the other day, so I am now on my 3rd barrel of recycled peat/perlite.
At this point, I am declaring it a pretty solid system.

Nice to know I have been soaking mine every other week until my feet are soaked.

I just dug back through my journal, a barrel of dirt lasts me around 4 months.
So a barrel gets flushed with rainwater for 8 months before it is used.

We get rain rarely

I bought some amendments I want to try on the used stuff. You only need a small amount. Mine will be sitting about 6 months. I do already have a peat and a pearlite on hand new for spring. I bought it before you told me about recycling. I may want to go in ground. My sister wants me to get a license so I can grow 300 plants. F’in pot head. I am killing myself with 48 at a time. I will have a lot more time though, unfortunately.

I have been considering layering some lime into the barrels as I fill them.
I usually have 15 to 20 plants to take care of, that’s plenty.
I could handle 50, but 300 would be a lot of work.

I liked that reuse idea so much I had to follow your lead. I've got no way to flush anything so as a pot dries out from the last harvest I recover as much as possible in my tub.

Everything I have growing is in reused medium now. I'm not seeing any issues really so I'm just gonna see what happens.

And soon I'll be close enough to visit and leave with a sample pack.. your finishing those off
Beautifully brother.. your talents have improved ..

The last couple days have been pretty hectic.
My 95 year old grandmother lives next door to me.
My 70 year old retired mother usually goes to grandmas every day to check in on her and deliver groceries and cleans and what not.
We got 8 inches of ice and snow, mom can’t make it up on the hill where we live, so I have to stop at grandmas every evening to check in on her and take care of her needs.
It wouldn’t be all that big of a deal, except I started the new job yesterday.
Don’t get off until 4:00 pm now, so don’t get home until 5ish, plus I still have to do my chores too.
I will be glad when this $hit melts off.
