GOP Afghani-Three Month Check-In on this season’s outdoor grow
This is the GOP Afghani outdoor grow for the season. I bred these beans over the past winter holiday and got seeds that sprouted well–from a previous post in Mid Feb: The plants are going on 90 days old or so and are doing quite well outdoors. The stems are thick & healthy and the…

Cannabis seeds sprouted. Satisfied customer
I sold some seeds to a FB friend and got the DM in the featured image just this morning. They planted 2 and got 2 popped up. That’s always a good feeling. Cannabis seeds sprouted! Now they are going to try their hand at cloning once its big enough to take cuttings from.
Seed viability check-necessary “QC”
A reputable seller will perform a seed viability check. If you pack parachutes, the rule is you jump with one you’ve loaded after loading 10. Thankfully this isn’t life or death but still needs to be done. I took 10 fairly random cannabis seeds as a representative of the seed yield that occurred recently. I…
Soil maintenance…a needed hassle
When prop 207 passed in 2020 I setup my first legal recreational grow. Raised bed going on 5 years of age.

Beating the heat outdoors with an off-cycle grow
I wont get into politics here with global warming & all…just my 2 cents as an AZ resident with a green thumb. The summers seem to be getting hotter. The last 2 “normal” spring to fall seasons were not good. It got hot too early, stayed hot and along with that came budworms and other…

Site back up after a crash–sorta
Hello dear readers– the website server had a glitch and all I had was a pretty old exported backup to bring back in. I’ll be re-adding content as we go and I am also going to be selling seeds and other supplies for the grow community–stay tuned. And yes, the featured image is a pic…
Seed self-sufficiency
As most of you have surmised, looking at previous posts, there is no real guarantee on seed outcomes. Some vendors will stand by their product and others will not. I have seen some wild fluctuations in prices too. Last year I purchased some “regular” seeds . These are not genetically or chemically modified to be…
