Please enjoy these short clips (and photos) of my Reclining Buddha plants, which are stretched out, lush, and starting to flower! I ended up with 4 females and 1 male - perfect!
I had a very rough grow for my 5th blockchain crop during lockdown, then took the rest of 2020 off. When I came back with these Reclining Buddhas, I decided to keep it simple and quick, to ensure myself a victory. Things look promising at this point, don't you think?!
The Females
If you've been following along, you know I've got 5 plants (from about a dozen seeds) that made it to full size. They're just starting to show their sex structures. (Naughty!)
I ended up with 4 tall plants and 1 VERY stout plant I named Monster.
Turns out, it appears all the tall plants are FEMALES!
See up top where the new growth is all bunched together? Several little white pistils are popping up, already ready to accept any pollen the wind brings along. (Those tramps!)
Here's another of the tall young ladies:
And another, slighty less mature, but with a lot of lush green growth up top:
This bodes really well. I forsee a good crop of buds on these plants within a few weeks. They're hardy, in their prime, and healthy. You can look forward to some gorgeous flower photography on this channel soon!
As always, my garden is 200% organic - nothing but air, light, water, and soil. All I have for a light is an old SAD lamp (for people with seasonal affective disorder aka "winter blues"), but I make it work. The soil is worm castings (poop). That, along with technique, is truly all you need to grow top shelf cannabis. I've proved it over and over on this blockchain, and I'm about to do so again!
The Male
Assumed to be dead for a few weeks, and then assumed to be female since then, "Monster" (originally just 2 inches tall and 7 inches wide) is standing up straight (maybe 6 inches fully erect) to show us his balls!
They're not very big, but those are pollen sacs forming and moving outward from the top growth. Round shape + no pistils = no medicine.
But a male means pollen, and pollen means babies (seeds). Since I used up all my Reclining Buddha seeds to get this crop going, I wouldn't mind getting some seeds back! Right on. But I'll be careful and only let him pollinate a section of the garden. I want lots of tasty sensimillia, too!
That clip shows his stature, next to the girls. Isn't that funny?
Have you seen that before, where the males are extremely short compared to the females? Or was this just a one-time fluke?
Either way
I'm happy to be growing out these gorgeous plants, and also that I have places like Weedcash and Hive to show them off.
Cannabis is about more than just getting high. For some people, it dramatically increases their quality of life (without doing any harm to anyone else). For others, it's the only thing keeping them alive. Prohibition is alive and well in 2021 despite "legalization" sweeping the planet. Censorship is a sure sign that cannabis remains prohibited, stigmatized, and hated by the state.
For the patients - and for Liberty - we must spread the truth about this incredible plant.
And as always, grow in peace.
