Soulmates 2006 OD garden

[soulmate]

This is a copy and paste from another site I belong to so some of the tenses (today,yesterday instead of last summer or Aug, etc)may be wrong.

Here are some pic's of Robbin's OD garden last summer. Most of these have been in her stable for some time. The Kong, BB have been going for over 8 years. The Wraffie has been around for about 5 years. The Herijuana, MBB, G13X have been with us for around 2 years. The Willy's, KG, HS, is a new addition this year.

These are over views of the garden:

I had my garden helper out finishing the staking. I thought I would take a few pictures of the plants in flower. The KG is almost ready to come down, n=maybe a week or two. Here there are:

And one last one of the new greenhouse I built since the last update:

I never top any of our plants. I just use a potion I have that stretches them at the beginning, then I bend the branches back into the ground, so that they grow many root balls for each plant. Each plant has about 15-20 root balls. I then wire down the branches. I am now just starting to remove the under growth ( all the small shoots that don't add up the must in the end), this will allow the plants to divert all of the good energy to the main cola's. In a few weeks I will start to stake them. I use over 1000 stakes in the garden every year. It take many hours staking them all but it pays off in the end.

Robbin is only allowed so many plants under her MMAR, so this is one way of getting around it. Now we have around 10-20 main branches with root balls and they all are just from the one plant. Where there is a will there is a way around the OD plant numbers under MMAR, LOL.

I must give SkeeterD credit for this way of rooting as he show it to me. I was doing something close before that by I didn't have the extra root balls, the plants where just bent many time through the season but only had one ball to feed from. One day SkeeterD came out and saw what I was doing and said that it looked great but he also said he had a way to make it even better and I haven't turned back since.

Thanks SkeeterD.

Yes the KG is starting to flower but it is a long flowerer, like 11-12 weeks so this is good that it has started now.

I got Wraffie from Big Red back in the SSS days. He would never Tell anyone what it was but it is one of Robbin Fav's since we started it so we keep it going. I do have around 100 grow and smoke reports that Robbin has done for all of the strains I have grown for her, so as time permits I will post some of them.

I thought I'd seen those pics before, or at least that same garden, it's the little signs in the garden that clinched it for me.

I thought I would bump this post, because it is that time of year and thought, that newer members may be able to use the imformation about how I do the Multi root balling, with my OD garden. It works wonders.

[Albi]
