A Guerrilla's Journey to The Promised Land

Well I made it back without incident.

Glad I waited till the foliage came in cause some of my original holes are so over grown they didn't get light so I had to dig a few more than I planned on but I thinned out some of the foliage around them so they should be good.

So I dug 12 holes till the shovel broke on a rock... but got them filled and caged up and planted with germinated seeds...5-10 seeds per hole depending upon soil volume and light penetration.

I also managed to make 7 new spots for plants that's completely surrounded by 6'-8' brair bushes with some tall trees mixed in ....about 250'².

Planted half the seeds....will plant the rest on Thursday in what looks to be a t-storm which I don't mind one bit

Couldn't find the charger for my camera so I gotta buy one. Will have pics on Thursday for sure!
 
More bales carried in for mounds...cooking now

Most mounds are caged and planted

By the numbers... I have about 10 jack dawgs above ground, 20 blue bloods, 20 strawberry Jones, 6 white rhino and 10-20 N.E.D.

Any holes left empty will have 2-3 late season clones dropped in

20-30 clones to drop in the next 2-3 weeks

Only thing I'm waiting on is my camera charger to arrive so I can start taking pics again!
 
Big things!

This year is mostly R&D for my soil mix and strains....plus a few # of flowers and oil wouldn't be bad ;)

Were testing out everything front the late hazes to early indicas but were working as many elites as possible to see what would be good breeding parents for the next few season to make some guerrilla strains that actually pack a punch.

Looking forward to my jack dawgs as both parents were exceptional plants to grow and smoke!
Looking for a mold resistant blue blood as I grew some late last season and boy were they fat and frosty!
Got 2 mounds in the middle of my field with some white rhinos.

I made most mounds the traditional way.... just dump a bale of peat..mix..done lol....but my field mounds I dug 2-3gal holes then I found some metal drain pipe collars that are 8" tall and 14" diameter then I over filled those... wrapped chicken wire and staked em up.

I added water polymers to the bottom of my holes but also spread a bag through the field to keep everything else green and happy.
 
Quick update... lost about 2/3 of my seedling due to torrential downpours but those that survived are looking great.

I have found a good size nettle patch that I will be manicuring and making sure it flourishes. I'm going to plant 2 or 3 clones in the middle of the 30'x30' nettle patch which is 18" above the stream and less than 30' from the stream so I'm not worried about water or soil. The soil is very dark and loose. Lots of soft loam and sand/silt from the spring floods.

5gal bucket ½ full of leaves and top shoots.. .FPE style! The rest will be brewed on site in buried buckets. In the fall I will be sowing nettle seed all over my patches and mulching dried leaves and stalks in my holes over winter.

Digging a large hole on my hillside for a few hundred gallon res for a timer irrigation drip system for next year.

Got my camera charger in the mail.... pics coming soon

How are the girls doin these days man?! We've been lacking on rain where I live... I had to go out and hand water for the first time this week. I feel jacked as fuck now hahaha
 
Haven't been out to visit since last time. But 2 big storms rolled through so plenty of water.

Should have some kksc, og and other clones going out next week...its a bit late but gotta get some clones out for testing.

How you doing out there TM? I bet your girls are blowing up! Water crystals are working well so far for me.

I'm thinking I'll go out Thursday early early before dawn and haul a few 5gal jugs and mushroom compost
