Just a quick spin thru #enchantedTikiGarden 🌱 this evening on day 45 of flower.
I don’t know if it’s 🌱 genetics or the new nutrients from CX Horticulture or the good vibes of #enchantedTikiGarden remodel, but I’ve never had plants go this hard in veg just halfway into the 3week stretch.
Hoping there’s big flowers ahead!

Made some good progress framing and insulating walls for #enchantedTikiGarden today. Framed out a little nook for water reservoirs and supply storage.
Next up: framing two more walls and hanging door. Then electrical, paneling, painting, and decor

No, this isn’t a grass skirt for me to wear while gardening. All will hopefully start to become clear soon what the final layers of theming will add.

Another step forward on #enchantedTikiGarden. Just one coat of paint left to spray after this dries before flooring goes in Wednesday. In other words I need to get up early tomorrow to hit it before I start my work day.

The hedges🌱 are officially flipped to flower this week, and should be ready by Danksgiving. Time to buckle up and hope they don’t outgrow the tent.

The #enchantedTikiGarden veg tent is fully themed and operational! Just need to finalize lighting once I get some more colored bulbs in the mail and add some wall art and floating shelf. May do artificial vines/flowers eventually but I’m reaching the end of the budget.
