This fellow was the the only one. There were various of these all around Mrs. Jane. They visit daily for water. No idea where their nest could be. I have removed many of their homes but only after it has been used for their offspring.

During that time, they go in search of small insects like spiders. Which if you have alot of will attract these wasps your home.

They have a thin waist, long legs and are slow flyers. I have been watching them come and go all year.

They never once bother me or took interest in me to sting. They are anti social wasps so I find it soothing we can coexist aide by side without any trouble.

They started gathering around my plants because of the weather. We suddenly
got dark clouds but I don't suspect rain at all. Seems like its all show and no play today.

As you can see, these are about the length of 2 centimeters if not 3 or so. I don't think they get any bigger.

Here's a few more. These two were having a chitchat it seems.

Its fun being able to get so upclose to them. Every visitor I have had has been scared of them.

It wasn't long ago when a huge honey bee nest settled in a tree at the corner across from my home. Hundreds of bees buzzing around. Reminded me of a time I was walking around a junk yard and then suddenly i look up to see the sky above me turn black like a black screen door had been pulled over my head. It was alot of bees simple as that.

If you would like to know about this insect I found this article to be very helpful. Because I don't know jack to tell you the truth. I know they eat spiders because I have seen them do it.

I certainly do not want to get stung them at the same time I do just to see how bad is a wasp sting. Never have I been stung by a wasp before. I must be stupid thinking about it. Lol.

Anyways.

Check out this leaf

The most commonly known number of leaves on a cannabis plant is 7. However they tend to grow from 1 to 13 leaves. This could be due to having much sunlight, or probably a health problem if your fan leaves are only producing 1 to 3 leafs.

I never had one grow this much. And frankly I do not have much time and the experience growing cannabis. This is only my second try outdoors.

I think 7 is the most recognized because that is what is mostly displayed through propaganda and many tv shows and movies and articles. But it's not uncommon to have more.

So what else exactly does the number of leaves tell us about our strain?

Well mine is a sativa strain, you can tell from its long thin leaves. Indica will have fatter wider leaves and as for rudaralis types will be something in between. And usually less number of leaves.

I have seen indica take on 9 to 10 leaves aswell from my last batch, unfortunately for me, my seeds got all mixed up somehow... so every seed is just going to be a mystery grow lol. And I have hundreds of them.

Either way, I have the excuse to make some canabutter with these strains. Making it a great energy booster in the morning with breakfast meals.

That is all for today. Thank you for stopping by.

Please follow my main account at @yayogerardo and follow this one for more cannabis related publications as I come across new discoveries.

If your new to cannabis and are looking for an expert on cannabis I am not it. Sorry, however I will be providing many useful links relating to cannabis and you may find what you are looking for. Would not hurt to ask though too.

Cheers everyone.
