I hadn’t even realized…

Fierce Planet Posted on March 23, 2021 by jnfrMarch 23, 2021

Another mass shooting in Colorado, at a King Soopers which is everyone’s basic grocery chain around here. And I’ve just gotten my first vaccination and was really looking forward to doing my own shopping again. Maybe not so much anymore. While reading some reports from folks on the scene, recounting how they always look for the exits when they go into a store, I realized something I had not recognized before in my own behavior. And that is, ever since Aurora, which was the horrific shooting in a Colorado theater that you might recall, ever since then when I go … Continue reading →

Today in Colorado…

Fierce Planet Posted on March 14, 2021 by jnfrMarch 14, 2021

We’re having a LOT of spring snow. Much needed water, but ouch the shoveling! Still piling up. This is the patio where I like to sit, in other seasons. #cowx pic.twitter.com/11vfrJm1u0 — jnfr (@jnfr) March 14, 2021

For me, 50 weeks today

Fierce Planet Posted on March 2, 2021 by jnfrMarch 11, 2021

That’s how long our house has kept itself in quarantine so far. And today I got my first shot of the Moderna vaccine here in Colorado. Mr. J isn’t eligible yet, so we’ll keep ourselves in quarantine until we both have as full immunity as we can get. Guess who else got her shot today? Dolly Parton. Dolly gets a dose of her own medicine. @VUMChealth pic.twitter.com/38kJrDzLqC — Dolly Parton (@DollyParton) March 2, 2021 She is such a lovely person and I can’t thank her enough for helping to fund the vaccine I received today. Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine…

Solidarity

We couldn’t get close, but I’m watching it all with a big song in my heart.

Third grow underway

Fierce Planet Posted on November 17, 2014 by jnfrNovember 17, 2014

My third state-legal marijuana grow is happening now. Going well so far. These were started from seed, so no idea whether I have a female this time. We still have plenty of bud left from Grow Two, which was harvested in Feb/Mar of this year, so we’re happy in any case.

Seeds in soil: Pots

Fierce Planet Posted on February 24, 2014 by jnfrFebruary 24, 2014

I prefer to grow marijuana in soil, and that’s what I will write about here and in my book. The segment I’m writing now is on tools, and the first tools to consider are the pots you grow your plants in. After the jump is a first draft of information about choosing types and sizes of pots to grow marijuana indoors. Like everything I write, this information is geared to new gardeners in Colorado, where home growing is now legal in certain amounts and in certain situations. This information does not apply in any state other than my own.

And the buds grow

Fierce Planet Posted on February 6, 2014 by jnfrFebruary 6, 2014

And this second grow is 112 days from planting the seeds. The plants have been in a 12-hour light regime for 51 days. The buds are growing nicely. Pistils are browning, as you can see, but the trichomes are still clear, which means they are not mature yet. I estimate another month before harvest.

The plants: what they’re doing now

Fierce Planet Posted on January 13, 2014 by jnfrJanuary 13, 2014

The buds are growing, with lots of pistils but no trichomes showing yet. We’re probably six to eight weeks from having any mature bud from this grow. I grow using a technique called “low stress training”, which I want to talk about in some depth. I don’t have time this week, but I did want to leave you a picture at least. More soon.

How they begin: seeds in soil

Fierce Planet Posted on January 6, 2014 by jnfrJanuary 6, 2014

As soon as Amendment 64 passed, I got some seeds from a friend (Aurora Indica, a Northern Lights x Afghani breed) and started a grow. For that first grow I began my babies as seed in soil, starting in cream cheese tubs. Cream cheese tubs are great for starting seeds, as long as you poke drainage holes in the bottom. They are waterproof and pretty much unbreakable. From the tubs, which are about three inches across, I repotted to four-inch plastic pots, then to six-inch, then to pots that were approximately 11 inches across. Finally I moved them to the … Continue reading →
