The king of nuts…
Not as cheap as finding them over the park as kid, but just as delicious!

we could and do , but even protected seeds are flying everywhere here and some of the weeds like the court grasses are near impossible to kill off . even after being composted , a dead piece of that grass takes root . its a fucker

i found 1 m2 raised beds , plastic with drainage holes for 10 pound , so i bought a couple of those to fill with screened clean compost as a luxury ..... 250 litres to fill each one .
most my seeds are germinating fine . the only issues i have had were with one pack of the f1 sungolds[ these must be f2s or cross pollinated as they are mutating and low germ rates compared to the branded packet i germed , that are perfectly fine , and the other low germ rate were for the indian chilli. i don't eat loads of hot chillis , so i ordered 5 thai chilli plug plants , as replacements or substitutes for the low germ rate of the seeds, and that is plenty , one plant for each of us at the farm . i'm growing maybe 16 -24 sweet peppers though as we all enjoy those regular

My windowsill clones are... yet to be taken hehe. Well, might as well figure out the herms first, got a second hermie CBDrelax it seems. Now the light strip power light is even duct taped up.

at least you are looking and finding them early . some people pick them off and hope for the best . early intersex is more tolerable than early to mid flower i suppose too . i tend to get higher herm rates with outdoor bred seeds , untested fem seeds , heirlooms . if they reverse a winning clone that has later generational intersex tendencies , or double recessive traits when re combined ,they will only notice on the progeny or as the mother ages etc for example, although loads of variables .
hermies in fem lines, i think i would say possibly untested , and the wrong technique , timing used for reversal , or wrong plant or i could just be talking nonsense lol . imo anyway

Hehe first I thought it was funny how much more vigorous they were than the CBDenergy but seems the name is ill-fitting in more ways than one. I mean just a personal CBD grow, whatever, I'm not stressing it but it is disappointing. 2/5 hermed out so far yeah.Hardly relaxing so far ay
Done the pluck and pray a couple of times in the past but at least those times my prayers weren't answered and they didn't grow out of it, just more balls later on.
