  • Decision Week

    The 19th of May marks the six week point of the grow. On the calendar, it says the 19th is my planting day. The week leading up to that date is the fish or cut bait week for the plants. I’ve got a table full of contenders and another partially…

  • CBG & ME Part Two

    If you know someone with cancer, please share this blog with them. This is the sequel to a blog I wrote in 2020. I’ve got a lot more information now. In 2014, while experiencing the worst pain that a man can feel, Bladder Spasms, I was introduced to CBG. I…

  • Mornings

    I’m usually up by 4:00 a.m., year round. Part of that is a function of my age, and part of it is how farming has changed the way I live. I’ve referenced my love of mornings in many blogs, but today I focus on the value of doing most, if…

  • Light

    Here’s a Love in a Mist to greet you. Light is an appropriate topic for me today, since I’ve been having an issue with the sun around here since putting my feminized starts in the ground. We usually start getting some warmer days in April, but not this year, until…

  • Questions from subscribers #1

    Royal Kush in bed 20. Over the winter, I picked up some subscribers, thank you very much, and I recently received a batch of questions from a couple of them, so I wanted to take a moment and address them. Thank you for the questions. I encourage others to do…

  • Feminized are in the ground

    The supplemental outdoor lights are being unboxed and tested. At the same time, several new timers are plugged and charging, having already set the timers to go on at 5:00 am and off at 9:00 am every day for the next three months. From April 19 to July 21, these…

  • The First Week

    After two days, only eight out of 57 seeds have not opened. Some appear to have started opening before I left the room two days ago. Damn males, I thought to myself. The majority of the nine uncracked are six AK47, which are about six years old. I knew they…

  • The 2025 Grow Begins

    In eight days, I will start feminized seeds directly into five of my beds, while at the same time, starting seeds in my cottage to fill the other beds. I have several regular seed cultivars to start and I’m also starting backups for each and every feminized seed that I…

  • Buying Seeds

    I’ve been inundated with seed offers via email recently. It certainly seems that all my efforts to “unsubscribe” have been ignored. But it serves as a good reminder that if you are considering growing from seeds and haven’t purchased any for this year, it’s time. Of all the questions I’ve…

  • Winter

    It’s early in January, 2025. Happy New Year to everyone. The day after Christmas, to ward off my empty nest blues, I planted approximately 1,500 fava bean seeds, after removing the plastic covers from our beds. Solarization is complete, having received both heat and ice, these beds are ready for…
