We had snow and freezing rain again today. But supposedly, today is the last of it. Tomorrow 50's and sunny, and better every day the rest of the week.
I hope so, because I really have to get my plants in the ground soon. They are going crazy, but the lettuce is looking sad.
Yup, they made it. We had a "winter storm warning", but the temps here never got below 36 degrees F, so it was all good. High winds today, and for the next two days. They knocked over one of the pepper plants, but the game little mug stood his ass right back up like a trooper the next time I checked on them.

We are supposed to be getting clones this week. I usually do 8, but we are only going to do 6 this time, and I have one "Free CBD) plant I started from seed to make medicine from.
We just put them in the garden with everything else.
Yup, those were indoor, planted the seed December 27th, so their whole growing season was indoor. They look good, but they're scrawny and tiny. Only got to about 4" tall, and didn't branch enough to produce any mega-buds. The biggest cola was about 3 inches long, and that was it. The rest are all under 1 inch long, and there aren't many of them.
I expect to get less than 6 grams total from two whole damned plants. Almost not even worth it.
Out of 6 plants that sprouted, 4 were male, so I killed off 3 of those and just kept one to produce seed with... but I'm not sure these tiny plants are worth saving seed from. We are only allowed 4 plants here, so i was sweating bullets for a while until I could sex them to know which ones to kill off. Saved the stems from the males to make twine with, but now I have to figure out how to get the fibers out to make the twine.
I had a bunch of CBD seed from Italy ("Carmagnola"), but none of them sprouted. Just as well, as the CBD doesn't seem to do the pain-killer trick like the THC does.
I have 9 sprouts so far for the spring crop. I'm going to plant some of them outdoors to see if that improves the bud size, and I'm sweating bullets again until I can sex them to see which ones to kill off. Such is life.
