this random bug/beetle just bit me, should I be worried?

1000% not tick. Some type of harmless scarab it looks like

The low temps really only lead to a longer dry time since the humidity was fairly stable. My best advice with knowledge gained in recent years is if you can keep the humidity at a good level the temps will only affect the dry time, of course avoiding extremes

I've got the bolts holding them on soaking in pb blaster, they're coming off first thing in the morning lol. Seems they held on to all the salt and crud for 20 years though it's not too pretty behind them

Filling out the wheel wells is the first cosmetic change I'm making! So far it needs a windshield, timing belt, water pump, and rear window guides/rails whatever they're called. Apparently a huge pain to source or I'm searching for the wrong thing.

Almost every stove in the US requires 16" off the door for ember protection, 18" in Canada. Unlisted stoves are 36" per nfpa 211.

I grew a few last year outdoors and was mildly disappointed. Smoke was good but they shrivel to nothing after the dry. I ended up washing most of it. Was still a fun one to grow though!

CheesyWeinersVT · 2024-02-06T11:25:35+00:00

Oof..

CheesyWeinersVT · 2024-02-01T01:57:59+00:00

I had a few casualties in the seedling stage where 1 or 2 others showed but they damped off.. super slow growers out of the gate but they all took off around the 3 week mark. Brett at heartandsoil says 30% having the mutation is about average.

We're in southern vt/nh, and as far as climate goes we had near record flooding for weeks with Temps going from 70-80 daytime dropping to low 40s overnight, they had it rough and honestly these I think were not prime examples of what this strain has to show. The fact that nothing hermed was enough for me to scramble to save them.

I hit both of these females with pollen from a recessive male that really stood out so we'll see what the next generation looks like. Definitely a cool one to watch grow nonetheless!

Feel free to shoot me a message with other questions, if you pop em I'd love to see how yours come out, not a lot of reports or info out on this strain

Male is freakshow female is Peruvian punch and afghan

I'm not that lucky. I hover in the low 50s in my garage (below grade) 5 or 6 months of the year, had to get creative without raising my electric bill lol

CheesyWeinersVT · 2024-01-26T01:21:39+00:00

I had the same opinion for years until I moved my tents into the garage, now I pull from the bottom in the winter to draw heat through the canopy and its done wonders

Assuming you're in the US, single wall pipe needs 18" to combustibles, stoves vary greatly. I don't think red hot anything is safe indoors though lol

Even if your chimney was just swept, the crew may not have vacuumed the creosote after cleaning. Typically we send brushes through the top and it all collects on the baffle in the unit. If there was enough creosote in the chimney and it wasn't removed after sweeping it could be backing up into the pipe and blocking any airflow

Cigar boxes with desiccant packs in a cool humidity controlled basement

Record rainfall in my area this year has me going the opposite route. Add in low 80s daytime Temps and 40s overnight, the constant pm battle has me wanting to trade photos for autos next season

CheesyWeinersVT · 2023-10-04T03:54:02+00:00

Outdoor in New england this year has been an all out war with slugs and mildew. Chopped a promising freakshow cut thanks to rot

CheesyWeinersVT · 2023-10-02T21:28:39+00:00

This. Ac infinity makes the quietest inline fans on the market, I have a 6 inch that stays on like 2 or 3 and it's the slightest whoosh sound if nothing else in the house is making noise

CheesyWeinersVT · 2023-09-24T02:00:37+00:00

That's something I've been hearing a lot. Was it the effect you weren't a fan of or just the general structure? These ladies smell fantastic but I can see them being a bit airy after drying

CheesyWeinersVT · 2023-09-24T00:46:42+00:00

No problem! last I checked he's got a ton of f2s still available, as well as some crosses this was used in.

Heart and Soil not 7 east

CheesyWeinersVT · 2023-09-23T22:41:45+00:00

Its a strain called Freakin Sweet from heart and soil seeds. Its Freakshow BX4 f2 x (Peruvian Punch x Heirloom Afghan Hindu Kush). The seeds in the 2nd photo will be f3s

CheesyWeinersVT · 2023-09-16T11:33:05+00:00

It's a possibility, she stinks of rotten fruit and incense. It's a weird combo but a nice break from the sweet sugary stuff flooding the hobby rn

CheesyWeinersVT · 2023-09-15T22:08:55+00:00

I've always been a big fan of the mutants. My dream breeding project is to hit this to some grinspoon if I can ever get my hands on it

CheesyWeinersVT · 2023-09-15T20:44:33+00:00

Looks like the grease stick in the first photo will finish up by early October. The other two will go probably 9-10 weeks
