2019 - The Farm

Well, it's finally time to start. Again. :)
 
Finished taking inventory of seeds today, and started the 2019 grow list. Since the 24x96' isolation high tunnel is done, I'll be growing a crazy long list this year, as we'll be growing for 2020 seed inventory. With the soil mix equipment, it should be a lot less work on my back this winter! (Even more so if I get the indoor grow areas plumbed and set up on drip irrigation, still not sure I got the budget for that yet tho)
 
Some of the seeds I'll be pulling from are damn near 10 years old now, so I expect many of these to eventually get crossed off with 0 germination. Everything I have ever saved or traded is getting planted, though. There's 203 on the list right now, many duplicates though where seeds were sourced from more than one person/vendor. 
 
The grow room at home is getting a makeover, going to be "going vertical" to get some space back. More on that in a few days...
 
This list is not complete yet, I will be adding more after I hear back from a few folks I PM'd.

Most of the lettuce is for taste and local adaptability trials, small little plots. We'll be succession planting out most crops, small qty for market, so "big list, not so big qty."
 
Some of the stock (various herbs, seedless watermelons) is non-organic seed stock and will either be grown either in the north transitional field or in pots. 
 
570 fruit trees are also coming sometime early spring, those will go in to the dirt as soon as it can be worked after freeze. We'll plant those and forget about them for a few years.. just mow around them. All the big work starts in a few years with those.  Shouldn't need to irrigate them unless we get a big dry spell, and/or until they start producing.
 
Hey folks. Just wanted to send a shout out that we're still busy as hell with the cannabis harvest. :)
 
We'll be updating the website in a couple weeks with new pepper seed stock. We didn't get a huge volume of isolated seed stock from the greenhouse grow, but we got enough to get some 150ish varieties on the website. Just gotta get through the last of the cannabis harvest.
 
As far as the harvest of THAT goes; on Oct 30 the state of IL announced they were excluding THCa from test requirements this year, and we got the green light to harvest, so things got real busy, real fast.
 
Literally every surface available at the farm (and some improvised ones) were used to dry cannabis.

Is the pepper seed list updated with the isolated now too? Im on there atm. Need 7 Pot Primo and will try the Moruga/Reaper maybe. The old CLOSEOUT code isnt working so not sure if those are old stock or new isolated.
 
Good to hear that you were able to harvest your cannabis crop after all. And I look forward to all the cool new pepper seed varieties coming to the online store. 
Was the Brown Bhut your hottest variety again this year, or something else?
 
Okay, Trent, that is the most weed I've ever seen at one time!  
Really glad you were able to salvage your grow to some extent.
Hope you can turn it into $$.

No I haven't updated the inventory yet; will be done in a couple weeks.

Honestly not sure, the girls were in charge of seed harvest and I didn't get much taste-testing done this season. By the time we got rolling on that I was neck deep in labor on other stuff. 
 
Devil's nagabrains was pretty f'n hot. I did try one of those, and it was brutal.

Yeah I hope so. Right now we are on hold with it, until Governor approves sale through rec dispensaries after Jan 1st.
 
We're applying for a dispensary license next month, and a grow license. Have some good genetics. 
 
Our cutoff date in IL is Oct 31, 2020, after that we fall in line with the federal government on 0.3% total thc. Until then, THCa is excluded from testing. Harvests have to stay within state lines though...

Yeah Illinois fully excluded THCa from testing this year, and we were fine on delta-9-THC.
 
They decided to exclude THCa after over 90% of farms that had compliance testing went over 0.3 total THC.
 
I know it's a day later, but I just had a WOW moment.
 
Trent, you just might be the hardest working SOB I know.
