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

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.

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 →

Historic day!

Fierce Planet Posted on January 1, 2014 by jnfrJanuary 1, 2014

Today the first legal retail sales of marijuana are taking place in Colorado. Watching the news reports on the Denver Post’s new Cannabist liveblog, it sounds like everything is smooth and peaceful. Demand is strong and there may be shortages at some stores, but I’m sure that will all work out over time. Here at our house, we’ve had legal weed for months, because I grow my own. In fact, my second crop is full of young buds now.

In the Garden

Fierce Planet Posted on September 3, 2010 by jnfrSeptember 28, 2010

Harvested my first tomato yesterday. They are ripening very late this year, but I got them planted pretty late as well. The plant is “red pear piriform”, an Italian heirloom, that I grew from seed by Johnny’s Seed.

We’re actually having a thunderstorm tonight, and may have hail. But I’ve got tiny green beans and the zucchini are flowering. And the trumpetvine looks beautiful.

In the Garden

Fierce Planet Posted on May 16, 2009 by jnfrMay 16, 2009

I think about writing something occasionally, but it’s really all I can do to keep up with my garden this year. That’s Minuet, a dwarf Chinese cabbage, growing next to Toy Choy.
