Call MerryMaids :hump:
Hehe, idk if that's a good idea ;)

Idk about you guys, but this week has been busy so far! Regardless, I hope it's going well!! I was kind of bored with reading about people buying more mars and kind lights, so here's a quick midweek update on the garden:)

I'm using a giant coffee mug to keep the cup girl from tipping over....she doesn't need it yet, but I don't want to come home and find it laying on one of those small plants! I found some nanners on the Liberty Haze....good thing i chopped her ass down!!
And the garden...coming right along!!

Great news: The Tree of Life x Grinspoon is a female!! Nice!

Now I gotta decide what to do with the other two. I've been contemplating replacing that Tangerine Dream in the bottom right with the Tangie.......what do you think I should do? The Tangie, if it were female, will get much larger than the Tangerine Dream. It has 8 mains compared to the four of the TD..

Hey everyone, it's the start of a new week! Everyone in the garden is doing well....I think I'm going to try to keep the girls in the veg tent around until the LSD is finished...probably about 3 weeks...we'll see. Maybe I should chop em up and practice my cloning.......

Here's a quick pic:

Really nice and green, bravo monsieur. :)
I'm asking myself, why don't you fill up your tent with two or three more plants ? You do not like a crowded tent or it's a because of a legal thing ?

Peace

Got another teaser email from Grasshopper,this one even had a teaser video.
i got the same email..................I think for me, it would have been better if they said nothing at all. My ship date is May now.

Here's quick update on the garden:) The LSD is a monster! I replaced the Tangerine Dream with the Tangie in the lower right corner. The bastard child ToLxGrinspoon is flowering very slowly.....but coming along.

Okay, so I've figured out a plan for the trip, and the LSD is going to die...we'll get another 'vine cured' plant, because she's drinking ~1/2 gallon per day, and not really slowing much. The buds are already pretty huge, and I'm pretty sure she'll make it into the harvest window by the weekend-that's when I expect her to run out of water. The party cup will get its own gallon of water, as well as the back right plant (still can't remember what that girl is O_O). Then, I've got a three gallon bucket for the GrinTree and the Tangie to share. Those two are growing fast, so idk if it will be enough, but there's no one to take care of the garden. That's really the only problem with these tiny pots-the plants still get nice and big, but there's no room for error with nutrients and they dry out within hours of running out of water.

Dono if your space permits but get a trash can or tote, 10-15 gallons, and put a float valve in it that's hooked up to your water supply?

That's a really good idea....I was thinking about something like that, but I think I'm too scared to have a flood to try having that much water on reserve!

I got some pics of the garden:) I figured I might as well get it while they still look alright ;) It's really full in there....the GrinTree (front left) is growing much like the Tree of Life: into a really tall plant. The Tangie (front right) is really filling in the space too. I put the cup girl into some serious bondage...not a lot of bud on her and she was spreading out wide.

Here's the garden:
