Pipecarvers Pipes & things

I had one behind the garage that rotted standing. Had to get it taken down by a professional. He had a lift that went the length of the garage and a buddy he could pass chunks down too. We had to deal with the tree once on the ground but it went pretty fast.


Nice. Big humidor. Is it beside the bench and chair for easy access? 🤣
If they are still drinking plenty and swelling I’d wait. But I get greedy hoping for water bottle colas.


Outside I liked using the auto flowers. No where as big as a regular but it’s over and done in just a few months.

Can you gift the clone to anyone? Neighbour or family maybe? I try to give them away but no takers these days. Apparently it too hard to grow weed. Much easier to just ask for free weed. 🤦😂
Lol I don't have to move off my chair its on my right I just have to stand to reach the top shelf.

Ya its a Sativa and I don't know anyone that could handle her indoors and outside is just a waste of time, she's a calcium hog and I'm having a tough time with my autopots res giving her enough while weening the rest off everything. She started flowering a week later than the rest and shes still pushing out new bright white hairs and swelling with lights at 60%.

Neighbor on my right I'll be suing for my trees and land scalping and the neighbor on my left is a garage/storeage lot with no water and a long time ago was part of our property but sold long before we bought.
 
That's a monster of a tree!
Cool Cats!
My wife has a heart attack everytime I bring one out, cause Panda usually escapes when no one's looking.
Ya Qnight took off tonight as is gone, My wife opened the door with his leash on and he bolted out of her grip and has disappeared. We've been looking the last 2 hrs. Wife picked up a tick while searching out back. We'll just have to wait now and see if he shows back up, I hope he's escaped his harness, he can by backing out of it when he's tangled but not always:cry::cry:, he's my boy I can't lose him.

Did he get home safe?
 
Yes he came home this morning, I was up early looking for him and I spotted him in the neighbors yard and he looked at me then ignored me and disappeared again but finely came home an hour ago. Fking Cats!
I feared his leash would get snagged and he’d be too far away to hear.

Glad he’s home safe. We don’t see cats in the neighbourhood these days. Too many fox, coyote and hawks these days.

Give him a good scolding, before you start babying him again. 🤣

He's in hiding now, I have 2 long boxes I stuffed with packing paper he crawls in one or the other and sleeps. He's been sleeping since he came home, ate then went into hiding. I haven't had a chance yet to check him for ticks, my wife got one while looking for him, he must have some on him being down low at tick height in the grasses. Both Coal and Dusky are home bodies, when they get out or off the line they head to the front door, not Qnighty boy, when he gets off the leash he bolts, this time he bolted leash and all.

Glad he’s back safe and sound. Hope he’s tic free. 🤞

Yep tick free amazingly enough but he has attitude and is giving me the cold shoulder, he slept all day yesterday and today he hasn't come up for his regular mauling I give him on his cube. He's eating quite a bit when he's awake and that's not like him either, he's normally very picky...but he's back so lol cats?

How’s he doing, back to normal yet? Heat and humidity have made everything a chore. Rain the other night and yesterday morning didn’t help. We had a nice breeze for a bit and 18* this morning but by 9:30am it was already getting hot. It’s 24* in the shade now which is better than the other day.

How’s the harvest going, all done or still waiting on things?

My son was out this weekend so nothing got done, I'll start tomorrow I believe by cutting 2 Blue Dreams down, I'll let the 1 sativa go for another week-2 maybe if I have to.

Cold damp and light rain now 13c, yesterday 24c, son took his ebike out for a few hours. Everything is green now, spring finely got here, bushes and trees have color. No local Strawberries yet though cause its been too damp with not enough sun, typical I'd say but farmers are complaining.

I'm going to pick up some surgical tubing and leather straps this week to make sling shots with Great grand kids. I plan on moving the tools we'll need into may garage onto some low tables let them use the band saw to cut the shape and drill press for holes. They are 6-8 the 8 year old will be fine he's responsible enough but the 6 year old could be a challenge with me. He can be haywire at times and takes advantage of my easy nature. I can get 5000 clay balls for $20, surgical tube $20 ish, targets $15 for paper bulls eyes and $25 for spinning duck targets. I'll set up a tarp to shoot at so we can recover the balls. They are my favorite little humans so we should have some fun. Their parents ( my wifes son) and his wife, she in particular are Taliban like with their religion and I wasn't sure if they'd okay it but surprisingly she was good with the idea just a bit concerned 1 kid might lob off a finger or 2, I assured her that I'll have crazy glue on hand just in case and duct tape for worst case scenarios.

3 of my girls are done, it'll be 11 weeks Wednesday the Sativa still has some time yet. I was in the motion to cut but needed space and by the time I got it all cleaned up...I'll do it tomorrow now. I've been keeping my last harvest in my new Vcure except what I'll smoke in about 1 week, a good handful and then some more. I'll fire up my mini fridge to keep my stock in while the Vcure is busy.

I really need to transplant my next crop into suitable containers, The 2 clones can be ready to flip once I get transplanted and established. I still have no home for the Sativa she might end up outside as a bush but our weather sucks for outdoor growing/ finishing still not sure what to do with her.

One Bubba Mac n Cheese is a sativa and the other 1 isn't but its not a great plant, after about 7 weeks it started thinning on the tops and has a Fox tailed top to all of the. The Sativa version has part of her ripening by turning brown and the buds that are getting the most light are still bright white. I have the lights at 60% and lights are on for 13 off 11

I'll chop my 2 Blue Dream 1st and if there is any room left in the Vcure I'll add the odd looking girl. My Blue dream smell great and are rock solid I hope my new curing machine lives up to its cost.June 8 Blue Dream 2.JPGJune 8 Blue Dream.JPG

We've had really summer like weather here, it rains a bit but I'm love'in it.
Just planted seeds today after my Grandson did some tilling for me.
Dam toe made me a few weeks late for this garden so we'll see if anything grows.
Toe is much better today and tomorrow we get the car. No more $Uber rides exept this last one.

That's a cool idea Pipe, I think everyone will have a great time!

I have 3 of my 4 plants down with 2 in my Vcure and 1 in my drying box. The Vcure almost took 2 full plants but the bottom tray is only 1/2 size and I couldn't squeeze it all in.I have my Vcure up on a shelf next to my desk and as I just reached in to grab something I felt water underneath. Now what? before I to see where the water is coming from I googled to see if this is an issue with Vcure's and apparently some have had a seal leak and may need to replace a part...June 11 other BBmnc 2.JPGJune 11 other BBmnc trimed.JPGJune 11 other BBmnc bunch shot.JPG

The crop looks great!

Soon as I read it I ran over to my Vcure to check the bottom and behind.
I don't really pay much attention to it n just check the app a couple of times a day.
No water or wetness but wow Pipe that sucks to hell if you have to replace a part.
I hope it isn't your machine tho.

My crop fit in but had to put some of the buds on top of each other, piled em up till they fit.
That was only my White Truffle big bush.
I think that one foxtailed on me pretty bad if you ask me.
Still gets me high but smokes like shit.

There was a tip to tilt the unit back a bit, it was also the day after loading it up with wet weed, its dry inside and so is the water tray and its dry now with no more water coming out of it. I'll keep any eye on it when I load another crop in there. I'll contact Vivosun and let them know there has been an issue already..

Ya I didn't stack the buds I had a full screen on each level but now there's a lot more room, just 2 days and they've shriveled up a lot.

Love your grows bud. Another fantastic finish. 🤘

Ya thanks, I still have the 1 going, I'll let her run until I have room in my Vure for her. She'll be at 12 week Wednesday but I'm in need of the 5x5 for my next crop like now. I just transplanted my plants from solo cups and they must be a month old, I was holding them in small containers so I don't run out of room. Yesterday I moved 1 of my clones into the flower tent, the Bubba Mac n Cheese. I just don't have room for her in the 3x3 so I'll let her go to flower in the1/2 gal pot, trouble is she runs dry in 2 days in such a small pot. She's a nice healthy plant I hate to kill, I just don't have the space for her.
