Good luck to all you SH growers...certainly hope your grow season is a lot better than it has been up here in NH, (that is in Ontario and Northeast US).

But by the sounds of Nigel email....you are getting heavy rains....which is what ruined our season this year...unless this is typical for your summer season...i have no idea ...never been down under before...but its on my list thats for sure.

My harvest will actually start today....continuing a little staggered over the next 6 weeks...

It will be very enjoyable to watch your progress this year while kickin back enjoyin the fruit from this years crop...so keep us all posted.....wish you all the best for good weather, green thumbs and green monsters....

heavy rains for sure, you know when the farmers have actualy stoped whining its gonna be a good year.

And sorry lacy no Koalas here, too hot for them where i am.

A male koala will rip you, and a kangaroo can disembowell you, platypus males have poisonous spurs on thier hindlegs. The whole cute and cuddly thing is a lie propagated by the OZ tourism office; to distract you from the poisonous snakes, spiders, fish, octupus and jellyfish. lol

Guerilla warfare is under way, stuck some pots in a box and made the first mad dash down backroads for the season; Triple J radio blaring Grinspoon and Rosie cackling. adrenalin going with every set of headlights encountered.

pic 1 - outdoor crew loading up H2o for battle. 4 biggest of 4 strains are now stashed in the bush; hidden in a hole amongst a dead tree and scrub. About half a km from roo hole 0ne.

had rippers following tyre tracks last year so walking everything in to sites,

pic 2 - are some donations to a friend's garden.

Found out today that a goat and pig cull is happening in one of my growing areas; people in helicopters, so will be going elsewhere to a few old sites and doing a few wild plantings in culverts and govt land.

Nice and green out there, am hoping a few of the small dams in the hills which have been dry with drought, have a drop in them. Nice to be outside again. lol nigel

and has an amazing garden happening, with fruit trees and raised veggie patches, succulents of all shapes and sizes. I gave her the smaller ones because they need her love; the bush won't provide. lol

Unfortunately that is the only person i will be helping this season; one mate went a bit mad and upset his missus with his smoking a bit too much of his harvest. She threw a saucepan at him which missed; but lodged handle first in the bathroom door. She is a strong girl; he is currently abstaining in fear]

The other girl was soo lazy, i had to come round and water, ended up with rippers, security breaches [she had to show all her girlfriend's the plant 'she' grew lol] and eventually social dramas from basically having completlely different mj morals and ethics.

It's a shame, i would LOVE to be an mj dispensary; but i cannot risk my freedom through other people's stupidity. Easier and safer just to give them a smoke; do the growing by myself.

OZ is an amazing landscape collage Lacy, quite often so close together you wonder how iot happened. I used to live North and it would be semi alpine at the top of the hill, through woodland forest, to a tropical hinterland and then the coastal fringe of hard species, all in 40 km as the crow flies.

Fungoid paradise, we picked natives in the autumn at the top of the hill, introduced goldtops at the bottom of the hill in the summer. I once encountered the toadstool of legend, 2 feet wide green head and a foot long yellow trunk.

They are reputed to be a legacy of when the area was a volcano; only come up on verrrry wet years. That year i counted over 60 species in a 20 km radius; 2 of them hallucinogenic and quite friendly. lol nigel

Yeah I'll only be helping 1 of my mates this year.

one mate gave me an 1/8 for growing the bugger a 2 pounder.....

The other decided he knew how to grow hydro and ruined a crop "PH pen whats that is that the red one or the yellow one", bahh idiots

But anyway will be doing the 2nd patch this weekend come rain or shine as the 3rd set of clones will be ready

can't wait to get a decent camera for the bud porn

nugthug

What!?!?!?! This fellow sounds like a cheeky piker.....I'd be ashamed to call him mate.

Every year I gift away an 1/8 to a handful of mates out of the kindness of my heart.

Sounds like you are a good grower and friend......if only everyone was

aussie grow

Its not that he's a bad person, its just he doesn't understand the whole give and take idea, he will understand soon enough, and no its not so much that I am ashamed to call him a mate, I just know where on the table of friends he sits now.

Like everything in life worth while, you have to try.

Anyway on with the show.

Will be harvesting my first outdoor winter grow in the next few days, I only did a couple just as an experament really and sure as hell didn't think I would get any smoke out of them, the original plan was that I would get a real early start, if they started too bud they would be reveged as I had no idea if they would have enough time to finish...

They did and my god do they look great, only small mind you maybe 1/2oz dry, but its free smoke and it is damn good smoke (both types are from last season) and I'm itching to try it out.

If only I could get this damn phone to send the pics to my computer
