Mohican's 2012 Season - Malawi Gold

The Desert winds known as the Santa Ana's are blowing and it was 90 degrees today and zero percent humidity. I watered the whole yard twice and it just evaporated in minutes. It is still in the 80s to high 70s at 11 pm! The winds were whipping around some of the little scraggley branches so I just cut them off. They are way to early but they needed to be removed so I will see what I can do with the little flowers on them.

I had to prep my trim area by removing the dry buds from a few days ago. They were ready for jarring (yes Sub, the stems cracked :) ).








I have a few jars ready. Small, Medium, and Large Ball jars:





Here are the removed branches in the collection basket:






Triim area prepped:




Patient ready:




Larf:





Macros:









Trimmed (and bagged for Matt Rize - hehe) - not to bad for early larf:















That was fun. There were a couple of lady bugs and that was it! Smells like cedar and weed. Some of the buds are extra gooey with more of a sap type covering instead of trichs - wierd :P
It is still pretty airy. I hope this fills in in the next month. I wish there were some good macro shots of what I should expect from a finished Malawi.


Cheers and TGIF,
Mo

90 degrees again today and bone dry. I jumped in the pool in my clothes because I got overheated while gardening. Watered, fed, plucked dead leaves, moved some branches to increase sun and air exposure, squished 2 bug eggs and changed the batteries in my wireless thermometer.

Waited until dark to go back outside and take some pictures. I had an audience of two young Raccacoons. Those masked faces kept popping out of the bushes to see what I was doing.

Here are the pics I got:

This grow was not meant to be this big! But I am glad because it is not done yet and I could lose a bunch to PM or bugs or weather or...

Got some trellis netting and put it on the WOG. Had some left over so I stuck it on the Big Clone.

I was surprised to see some seed pods popping on the Mainlined Mulanje!

These are this year's grow? Beautiful.
Who are you? A month ago you were old and frail now you're gardening, building greenhouses, jumping into the pool.... lol. Did you find the fountain of youth, Ponce?

These girls are getting close. More brown hairs every day and the trichs are starting to turn cloudy. The way they keep stacking I think I could let them go two more months and they would just keep adding more layers. My concern is the older growth is starting to get brown so how do I balance the old and the new? I always seem to harvest too early so this time I want to go as long as possible.

So when I was taking pictures yesterday to check the trichs (FlowaMasta how do you get such good trich macros?) I got this shot. My eyes are so bad I did not even notice the budworm until I looked at this shot! Went back out with my glasses and found about ten of these fuckers throughout my garden.

I can see the trichs again! I knew my old camera was not quite right.

Today is fun - 30 mph winds, 60 degrees, and sunny! All the plants are dancing in the wind and my pool is collecting leaves. I added some more netting to the WOG and she seems to be holding up to the wind well.
