Open Show & Tell , Outdoors 2014

Different phenos of the same strain. Bahia blackhead. I harvested the tops from the plant in the first pic. Smells like candy and hash. Super sticky too. I like all of the phenos, such diversity. The best for sales would be the bud in the first pic. I wish I had cloned that pheno. The smell is outstanding. And the buds have a purple hue to them. Like this lavender tint. Pretty.

All my plants are outside down here. Pics will be up soon I also have a girl flowering turning purple that I planted in winter (down here southern hem) and as we approach summer it would usually reveg but Im keeping it in flower because I built and dark cover to put over her each night to keep it on 12/12. It was the seeds I got of the plant last season in my profile pic and it must have passed the purple genes on lol

After finding some powdery mildew on some of the inside buds on Bubba Kush and with the rain and cold coming, Bubba Kush came down yesterday.. Knowing how fast PM can spread I did not want to loose anymore buds.. I am happy how she came out and I have three clones off her to keep the family line going. Thank you to so many of you here who have helped me, so glad I found this site. I have 6 stems like the one in the pic. below

I doubt you'll be disappointed bro. Looks delish!

So, got a hold of the local "retailer", and guess what I got after a brief phone call.
I also bought 3 fem Royal Caramel, but they was for a friend that wasn't interested in the freebie.
Victory is at hand

I had to take a quick trip to LA, had to.
Didn't want to leave my almost done plants when there was a 50% chance of rain. But, I secured them the best I could and wished them good luck.
Well, it poured all night and was pouring when I drove up the driveway, I got out of the car and thank the Lord they were taking the torrential downpour like troopers with help from the wire cage and the netting.
I helped one of PUrkle's side buds, shook off the water and tied it to the netting but nothing has broken, so far.
Supposed to be dry and sunny all week, I should be good til the finish.
Purple OG

PUrkle

A little battered but OK..

Keep a close eye on them. They are beautiful!

The rain has stopped and it is clearing up. I shook each stalk to get some of the water off and I think if the sun comes out for the next few days they should dry just fine. Of course I'll be watching them like a hawk for any problems.

My Hawaiian skunk haze got pummeled by the rain last night. One branch broke, so I guess I'll call it a sample lol. The whole plant was all saggy so I tied it all up. I love the fruity smell to this strain. The patio greenhouse roof got tore up by the rain too. It held up just enough over night for me to be able to get a fresh cover over in the morning. Just a couple buds were wet but not drenched. Buds are ripening up fast. I like this part. I just hate towards the end when they seem like they are not grow in anymore but you know they are still swelling lol. Like watching water boil man.

I know we need the rain but I hope that it doesn't rain anymore tonight.
At least I won't have to water tomorrow, everything got a good soaking. Probably a good time to dig a few holes for next season.

We got hit with a very hard rain a little bit ago. Did some damage to my enclosure to to water weight, easily fixed, but the grow area is flooded. 3 of my grow pot are in 2ft deep holes to allow for more hight and the holes are filled with water. Might have to pull early. Buds are dry for the most part but not sure how well plants gonna do being flooded.

sorry to hear that Shelby...hope they pull through for you

yeah. I know my peppers get bud end rot when the soil is soggy/wet for too long. Hopefully things can dry up for you.

I can't believe the Bahia blackhead in ground only has Nickel-sized buds. She is now about 8ft x 8ft. This pheno is real hazy. Weak spindly limbs. Lots of budsites though. And a beast for being put out in July lol.

Have the flood waters receded?

I spent the day grooming POG and PUrkle of any and all old wet leaves hanging on the buds. I shook the cage of POG and the fence to which PUrkle is fastened to, many many times. Believe it or not, the buds appear dry but I'm old enough to know looks can be deceiving,
I made a roast beef and all the trimmings for dinner and all I can say is there is no place like home and nothing like a roast beef dinner on a cold night.
What's everyone up to? Still trimming?

This afternoon I've been bucking (removing buds from branches) over 5+lbs dried Pineapple Chunk and Power Plant.
I had to change all the timers and clocks around the property for daylight savings, that was fun

Oh and roast beef sounds awesome btw. I wish microwaves had a teleport button
