MC,
the outdoor plant made it through our first snow storm. my tomato plants did not fare as well. guess they were closer to the walls of the greenhouse and froze? a few vines are still alive and kicking though
the problem wasn't how far the greenhouse is from the house but how far it is from the nearest outdoor outlet. fixed that monday by installing a new outlet on the deck. i'm gonna run a heater out there and see what happens... has been mid 60's this week and mild at nite so OK so far

Very nice, installed a new outlet and everything! That'll give you a head start in the spring also if you want to start early. With anything, actually, tomatoes included. You can enter the neighborhood "whose got the first tomatoes of the season" contest! Grow early girls if you really wanna win.
And yeah it has been mild enough to sleep with the windows open!.... But just wait until the next cold snap. Glad she'll be heated though! I'm sure she'll be happy too.

just a quick update. it's day 68 and feeling a bit sad the day before the 2 ladies get chopped down. will put up some pics before I cut.
the outdoor plant. hmm. not sure what to say about her. it was outside in the greenhouse and ready to have some heat run out to her for the cold nites but I checked the trichs and they were at least half amber. it was slightly over 8 weeks which was correct for the strain. the only problem was that the buds were hardly developed and super airy. i don't think she was getting enough sunlight for her to have the buds plump up. oh well. guess i'll make some bubble hash with her and dream of what could have been. it was over 7 ft tall so didn't have the headroom to bring her in anyway. i will try some autos next year early in the season and see how they do.

Hey RKY! You know over the summer months i have been checking up on your grows. Your super skunk looks deadly dude. I am actually jealous ! Defiantly put up some pics i want to see the ladies full figure !
Your going to love the green poison ! Its got a interesting smell to it. I still cant nail down what it reminds me of. But smoke wise its pretty good ! Hey also go pick up some of that Terpinator seriously you wont be disappointed . I did a side by side one with and one with out and the one with it looked like someone sprinkled sugar all over it. Well worth the money.
So you been watching any of the games ?

Bud hash is the best! I think it's not a waste at all. Would've been nice to have buds, but I'll love to see how much hash you get.
Excited about that super skunk!

thanks 9/5. hoping they smoke as good as they look. the one pic with the coke can was the biggest around and longest cola I've ever grown. and it is solid as a rock too.
the small plant was the green poison. I put a white cindy in there when i chopped the other 2 down. and then i have 2 widowmaker babies going too. i really like growing from seed so far. so many strains that i want to try though...
