Here is a fun find. I waited until I was confident it would survive, and I feel it's time to share the Easter Egg Hunt Results. Or, better yet said with great assertion...Flying Spaghetti Monster Watchamacallitwhateveryoulike. I am Agnostic. Okay, so here is the find...

You would never imagine such a thing as this. I was outside last week, tending to my soil factories, and stumbled on this little guy. It amazes me that it has survived the cold nights, and it has been near 40F during the overnight, here in the NE.

I had a hermie with seeds, hell I culled two males as well, over the past two years. I controlled everything as best as I could. But, somehow a seed made it to the foundation of my home. It is nestled right up against the foundation and surrounded by the border of Pea Stone I placed there as a landscaping feature.

I will let it be. I will water and feed, and even maintain it throughout its life, with defoliation etc...but I am not moving it.

Can't wait to see how it turns out.View attachment 99226

After much thought, leaving this plant alone, will only waste a good opportunity. It will only be as good as it's home allows, and it is not really a good home. So, I have decided to attempt to move it to a more comfortable home. One that is capable of providing the plant with what it needs to be fruitful. I'll keep you posted. Here is today's Pic. 20250510_095230.jpg
 
Trimmed up the Oregon Grape and Frozen Black Cherry.

Lots of nice big buds for 3 plants.
Have not jarred or weighed yet. Still in paper bag with hygrometer.

More red hairs on buds than I have seen.
Used the spinner/Bass-O-Matic for all but big buds.
Really is super easy and I will now use all the trim, trichs, and little buds that fell through to soak in 190.
I did not train well so the spinner just sent larf right to bottom and made the cutting before spinning easy and not much to think about.
The house absolutely wreaks and the wife has had to go out several times.

I should note the ride back was not as fast... Lol
 
I ordered a spinner I thought I would never use.
I won't deny it may be aggressive but I dried whole branches and only ended up cutting branches/ buds off and spinning them.
The spinner came with blades for wet trim or wire for dry.
I have only used it with the wires.
It is kind of like a get out of jail free card.

The Bass-O-Matic is an old Saturday Night Live skit.
Yea that's kind of how it trims your buds.
I can live with it.

Might be old news, but I just saw an ad for Vcure by Vivosun. Has anybody done any poking around and decided whether this might be a legit curing system? Looks like $700 now via crowdfunding. Then $1k after October release.

This is interesting and cool.
At $699 it is half the price of a Cannatrol.
Even at the later $1k it is still cheaper.
I'd give it a rip but have the Cannatrol already.
While I would get one maybe I would not invest now for a promise in October.
I am all but sure this will work and become available in the near future.

Just for you its broken.
Vivosun isn't the quality im looking for personally.
Their stuff always breaks on me

Seems like I bought something non-cannabis related from Vivosun, but I can't remember what it was. Might have actually been a bowl trimmer. I don't remember. I guess the point is, I don't know anything about the quality of Vivosun's products. I don't know that he's any kind of authority, but I do recall that guy Shane from Migro saying good things about the tech in Vivosun's newish grow boxes. Maybe they're improving their reputation???|

Does Cannatrol use an inverter compressor? If not, maybe Vcure will give us some new ideas for DIY cure boxes...

This has all been stuff thats been purchased over the last year.
It just isn't what I need.
If you only run 1 grow a year their products are OK. But to run 24/7/365 it makes more sense to buy higher end products and just cry one time instead of getting pissed off with broken stuff and having to replace it every 6 months
Just my opinion, I push my equipment lol

Hope all is well with Kitty. Love cats and dogs and...well all animals. What's up CannaGranny, besides the Litty Kitter? Hey, that reminds me, we have a flooring outfit here, in the NE called Lumber Liquidators. For the life of me, I would always call it by Liquid Lumberdators. Sooo... anywhichwayup, here's me wishing you a Happy Monday. Just thought I would drop in for a quick hello and chat.

Hey @Tremojem !
All is good here, the kitty is much better. She’s just happy to be home.
Been busy here, finishing up some spring cleaning and gathering everything I need for Friday. Throwing a couple of butts on the smoker, making all the fixings and kicking off our first porch party of the year. I’m looking forward to it.
Glad to have ya drop in, just sorry I missed ya!
Hope all is well in your part of the world. It’s raining here seems Friday will be the first sunny day for us. I’m so ready.

I cheated and read ahead before replying. 🤣

Glad fuzzy is okay. I was thinking quill at first. Dads had a few dogs that got them. We got skunk once or twice here. But the cats are usually abscess or urinary issues. (I was the families vet driver.)

Nice, it should be. Sounds like a peaceful or loud and proud place. Depending on the occasion.

It was a good day. Didn’t do much. Pretty sure I’ve solved or improved an issue I have with winter seed germination with G$ help. But with the promised temperatures for next week I might not get any further useful testing in until next winter. I can live with that. 🤣

Willow jumped off the porch and landed a little funny. I kept an eye on her and she was limping after a while. Checked her over, she made no noise, didn’t seem to have any damage but probably pulled or twisted a muscle from the jump. Had her rest the rest of the night and fed her just soft food. She’s been fine since we got up today but we’re not having any horse play today.

Seems we are finally getting rain this week. Starts randomly off/on tomorrow.

Itching to get the veggies going outside but I’ve been bit before jumping the gun. Waiting, impatiently until the last week of the month.
 
Nice, butts on the grill for a porch party sounds great! Good luck Friday. Oh, and rain off/on all week here. But, temperatures are better. Still getting stuff done. Have a great week.

Zen, I hope Willow is okay. And yes, the weather is finally breaking.

Yeah we got rain all week too, at least it's somewhat peaceful to watch out of the window at work.

Hope ol pussy Willow perks up @Zen_seeker , this is usually the time I wish the animal could tell us what's wrong and if they need any human intervention. Btw they are heavily working on dr Doolittle animal voice interpreters using AI. They have one for cats now, https://www.meowtalk.app/ no bs

Let me know how that works!!!

Good morning everyone else!!!
 
Gotta love my scorers. They got jokes! When my scorer asked me if I wanted to keep this target to have it emailed to me by the club..my statement was, “naw, I don’t need that shit”.. I was super disappointed. Competition was so heavy, dropping that one point, put me out.
Well, look how the target that was emailed to me was labeled. Yup, they got jokes. Now, this is an official document in my NRA Master Shooter file!

Thanks everyone for the gifts!!!
That's all I needed, more options for my indecisive ass! 😂

I'm not sure who did what, but I appreciate everything!!!
Love you all

Ya, just took things easy today. She spends a lot of time running around and in the air.

She’s waiting for my son, he’s late. IMG_3987.jpeg

I'm curious of the results

I had a look but figured cats and dogs don’t speak the same language. 🤷‍♂️

My cat passed away a few months before the big lockdown. We haven’t gotten another. She’s been missed.

I tried looking for another dog app but didn’t see anything that was anything more than entertainment.

I first saw these small buttons that dogs can step on to say words you can teach them with. That was cool but too expensive. (I’m willing to bet I’d have to put them up on a shelf most of the time or she’d just keep asking for food and to play outside.🤣)

If I ever find a dog app I’ll let you know.

I read some about the cat app after my last post, and saw that you need to train the app (or LLM) with some initial data specific to your cat to start the learning process.

Still a very long way to go, but interesting for sure

Just don't fuck with the squirrels!! (Rick and Morty reference)
