Alien OG By Cali Connection
Blue Dream By Humboldt Seed Co.

With some other sweet girls thrown in and you get my Alien Dream Grow 2014. A medical marijuana happy time grow.

Come on out to the garden in a month and see them outside. Or come on in and visit the girls in 4 inch pots while you can. They get transplanted later today into gallon pots from their 4 inch pot homes. We used peat pellets this year after soaking the seeds for eight hours. Yes, seeds! We have not done seeds in four years or so, since that awesome Blueberry you can see in my signature.

We will be growing outside in an enclosed area, high in the mountains of Northern California. The plants will mostly be in 45 gallon Smart Pots (that are holding up well for their 3rd season). We will be using a FoxFarm line up for nutes and Happy Frog for soil amendments.

Welcome to the new thread. Feel free to comment, ask questions or just come by for a look see. The truely epic pics wont be here untill this fall.

Also, the plants were transplanted on the 16th, a month in 4inch pots, now in gallon pots.

When I figure out how to upload pics here, we will be looking at some healthy little plants. We all know what they look like, plain ordinary young plants.

Oh, and....

Hippity Hoppity 420 is on it's way!
Hope you all have fun.

Hello 4u, things are great around here. Aside from some spring cleaning we are doing well. Mr. TC is pretty much retired. This summer he starts the SS and that will make it official..... I got lots for him to do around here, he will think he is back to work.

Take it easy on that tasty looking bud tomorrow and have a .....

HIPPITY HOPPITY 420!

Hey TC!

Weekly Update

Below find the girls in the yard being hardened off for the transplant on Saturday. They are enjoying some direct sun for an hour then in the dapple of shade under a newly leafed Oak tree for the rest of the day. Tomorrow will be the Oak in morning then some direct sun in the afternoon, and back to the Oak for the rest of the day. I hope that is enough to get them from getting burned to badly when they go out. The temps here have been in the high nineties this week. This is not ordinary May weather. Next week we will be back in the seventies with some chance of rain. That will be more normal for this time of year. We are getting above 46f for our overnight temps and I am satisfied that we will not be dropping below that. Of course I can be wrong.

The Girls in the Sun
1. Group Shot
2. Alien OG
3. Alien OG, the biggest, also looking like it is putting on a bud, ***! Hope I'm wrong there.
4. The Shortest Girl, cant remember if that is the Sugar Rose or the .....cant remember...dang, pass the pipe. She is gonna be a healthy little bush though. (in Edit, that is the Flower Bomb Kush)

Ah also want to say, we will be getting one more for the full Dozen. A White Widow, always wanted to grow that. To smoke of course. I have had some good fortune to smoke some in my life and I did like it a lot. I hear they are finicky and mostly grown inside. I have some organic nute line we got at the hydro store big bash the other day. It is called Aurora brand. The book for it is a quarter inch thick, but it is in both English and Spanish. It also has four lines of nutes and the grow charts. Love grow charts.

Enough for now, will share these pics. When the garden is in this weekend expect more. Thanks for dropping in here and visiting, hope all is well with everyone.

Hey 4u

yahoo!! sounds close to where i live, lol! we hit 101 yesterday, freaking toasty already!! i think last year i started putting mine outside after may 20 and still got some flowering on a few of the plants, purple diesel and the white widow were a couple that revegged without a hitch and still got good production off them. looking good bro!

Weekly Update

1. The whole enchilada, or all but one plant. We are missing a White Widow.

2. Closer

3. Closest, this is a Alien OG by Cali Connection.


The Blue Dream are along the back, the Alien OG mid and front. The Sugar Black Rose in the front corner (looks most sativa) and the Flower Bomb (looks most indica) as the first mid plant as you enter. Dont know if all that matters to you all, but I should write it down before I forget.

Things look good here, the pots are holding up for another season. The soil is all brand new this year, as the Mr. TC has a shoulder injury that put mixing 50/50 new/old out. The girls are gonna love it. We have Happy Frog Potting Mix and another soil from Oregon. It all looks good. It will be overcast these next few days so putting them out now was a good time. We have had some wind, so Mr. TC put up stakes and string so the girls dont get too wind blown.

All is wonderful at the ranch, baring the messed up shoulder. We will be taking care of that soon. It will then fall to me for the first time in a few years to care for the garden. I am loving that idea, caring for the garden, not shoulder surgery. I love this new hip.

nice setup

I'd love to be able to have a setup like this and not have to worry about the fuzz.

Sweet! Looking good TC. Can't wait to watch the progress

Diagnosed and Dead. The White Widow had Broad Mites. I guess I didnt post a pic of her here but I want to note that I had a plant in the garden that had Broad Mites. I hope it/they did not spread.

Melvan diognosed the problem, an A1 Grower!

RIP White Widow.

Saw them Killed some and tossed the plant.

Weekly Update

Things are moving along here, we had a set back with the broad mites and we are taking care of that. We are using something called Ultimate Water to battle the mites. Seems to be working as the new growth is coming out without the tell tale curl in the leaf. We believe the Widow only infected one of the girls but they are all getting sprayed. This stuff is new, I hope it is not hokum. It seems to be flying off the shelves at the hydro store. So get this, it is Electricly Charged water along with something else. I know, it sounds strange. The only thing is, you must spray/store it below 90 degrees. It seems to be doing something, as I said above, the new growth is coming out without the sign of the broad mites leave.

We have replaced the Widow with a Sensi Star and a Larry OG.

The plants along the back fence, Blue Dream, seem to be growing fastest. Two went to flower and two didnt. The fastest growing is seen below, it put on 11 inches in 8 days. Yes, 4u, I am measuring weekly growth again. Maybe we can get a tallest outdoor plant thread going.

1. The garden seen through the new truck.
2. The youngsters, smaller is the Sensi Star, larger, Larry OG.
3. Long view, Alien forward, Blue Dream back line.
4. Tallest plant, put on the 11 inches in 8 days. Blue Dream.
5. Sign of reveg. Note the three leaf new growth and the leaves close together. Hopefully it will branch everywhere it shows a new leaf.

The littlest plant put on 4 inches in 8 days and the rest fell in between. The back row is overall the tallest, even the reveg plants.

First day of summer is close and this Friday, not only a full moon but Friday the thirteenth. That won't happen again until 2046 or there about. I can pretty much say this will be my last full moon Friday the thirteenth in my lifetime. Party on Dudes!

Weekly Update!

Here we go....

1. The top of the Flower Bomb, she is so typical Indica, short stalky and wide wide leaves. She is coming out of flower nicely, tho only growing three inches in this last week.
2. This is the Suger Black Rose, she looks pretty dang Sativa to me, she was NOT listed as being that much sativa as I remember...but then my memory....what was I saying?
3. This is the new Sensi Star, bought at a Dispensary and does not have spider mites when I got her (right), she is getting her share of Ultimate Wash anyway.
4. The Alien Dream that is putting on 6-7 inches a week.
5. The smallest girl in the garden has a boys name, Larry OG! Also from a dispensary. Guess I already introduced the new girls.....

The plants (some) are really looking strange, the ones coming out of flower are throwing one and three leaves, I even saw a two leave out there. I just dont get it, why some and not all, why any going into flower, we never had the plants at 24 hours, only 14 which is exactly what it is when they go out....whine...okay, I will never know. I am only gonna say one more thing, DANG PLANTS that go into flower before their time outdoors.

Have a good week all and be safe out there over this fine INDEPENDENCE DAY! I know Americans go overboard, but dang, again, PARTY ON DUDE. Just stay safe and sound.

The Ultimate Water is really called Ultimate Wash. Worked better than anything we/I have ever used. I guess they changed the company name to something else, I think NPK is putting it out now.

Looking good TC. Going through reveg is irritating, I agree.

Weekly Update

Hope to get this back on track for you all.

The sun has been cooking out here on the ranch, and the nights have stayed around 60f. Great conditions for growing the reefer. Cloud cover today and tomorrow will give them a nice break of triple digit heat we have had. I think some have grown 12 inches since we netted them. Of course they are in the stretch now and growing like weeds...yes I said weeds.

1. The Indica, Flower Bomb in the foreground. With the tallest Blue Dream in the corner.

2. An Alien OG, stretching to the sky.

3. The Larry OG, Both OG are Cali Connection. This one looks like it is closest to flower.

4. Alien OG in the foreground and the Sativa Dom Sugar Black Rose in the corner.

5. This years first of August second story View of the garden.

6. Last years second story View of the garden. I like to keep track of how it looks before the girls start to flower and compare years.

It is very satisfying to have the plants as big/tall as they are this year. I am almost positive we will be continuing with seeds over clones. So far I have not seen a hermi in the bunch, and I have tried to be observant.

I have excuses why I have not been here, I wont bore you with them. But I will thank you for your patience, if you are still looking in for updates.

I hope all you outdoor growers are doing your thing in peace and good weather.
Peace out.

Yeah! Looking great TC!

What is the netting for? First I've seen you use it

Stone, the netting will hold the buds when they get so heavy the branches cant keep them up. Tried this last year and sure beat tying string around bamboo sticks to hold up the weight. Thanks for stopping in guys.

Super Moon 8/9/14

Great idea! Just getting to the point of thinking about that. Thanks
