A Brief Holiday Message from Cumin and Rev

The Circle Presents: All I Want for Christmas is a Stable Environment

Get into the holiday spirit with The Circle as our ever-chippy host, Reverend Pirate Frog, is joined by Howlingbuds, Stoney Alpinist, and tootall for the final episode of the year

. This official holiday special dives deep into the "grow talk" you love, mixed with plenty of festive cheer and the usual family-style roasting.

This episode’s highlights include:

• The Cannabis Hand Grenade: Stoney Alpinist breaks down the secrets behind his incredible kokedama-style cannabonsai—a "coconut grenade" made of moss and soil that he’s successfully kept thriving with daily care and potent nutrient "potions". He shares the technical details of the build, from using spagnum moss and butcher's twine to the "sub-sipping" technique that keeps the ball hydrated,,

• Grow Room Disasters: tootall shares his latest "manual labor" saga, involving a broken pipe cutter and a showerhead project that turned into an angle-grinder rescue mission

• Cannabis Etiquette: The hosts tackle the social stigma of "the smell," discussing a real-world scenario of hot-boxing a car before a school meeting and where personal freedom meets public respect

• The Grower's Naughty List: From messy dosing carts to leaving "fallen soldiers" (fan leaves) on the tent floor, the hosts confess the suboptimal habits that would land them on Santa's naughty list

• Holiday Favorites: Discover the hosts’ favorite Christmas movies—ranging from Die Hard to the Muppet-style classic Emmett Otter’s Jug Band Christmas—and their top holiday tracks, including James Brown’s Soulful Christmas and Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Whether you're looking for tips on long-flowering hazes, the latest on cannabis rescheduling, or just some holiday puns to get you through the season, this episode has it all

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Analogy for the Kokedama: Think of Stoney’s kokedama like a high-maintenance greenhouse-in-a-ball; instead of a pot providing a safety net, the plant relies entirely on the moisture-wicking moss and the grower’s daily "pulse check" to survive

Ganic and Judas join Rev to start things off after a minor inconvenience saw our RSS feed deleted and all past episodes deleted.

Join your co-hosts Reverend Pirate Frog, Stoney Alpinist, Howlingbuds, and Tootall as they dive into the chaos of life, garden updates, and highly debated appetizer choices!

In this episode:

Incredible Grows & Challenging Feats: Howlingbuds shares updates on his impressive small pot organic grow, featuring the towering Tangy Fox Toe beast and the "sexiest plant" he's ever grown, the short and squat Moon Diamonds.

Hear about his battles with high room temps and his unique method of using ceramic reptile heaters. Plus, Howling details his plans for preserving beautiful purple leaves and even buds using silica crystals for future epoxy projects.

Cannabonsai, Cal/Mag & Soil Struggles: Stoney Alpinist discusses his unique entry into the Alebrije Cannabonsai competition—a living soil sphere known as a kokedama.

Stoney also gets candid about the difficulties of running his current soil for a third round, battling Cal/Mag lockouts and nutrient depletion caused by inconsistent water quality, prompting a crucial discussion on water management (RO vs. softened water).

Personal Updates & Future Plans: Rev shares a bittersweet personal story about the loss of his long-time companion and the chaotic adoption of a new, skittish "cowboy corgi" puppy who immediately ran away, prompting a thoughtful gift from Howling.

Rev also outlines his exciting upcoming photo projects, including the long-flowering Violet Haze and Drippy Eye. Meanwhile, Tootall is in reset mode and gearing up to grow the highly anticipated Blueberry Sauce strain, alongside planning a major grow room build-out.

The Ultimate Appetizer Debate: Stick around as the crew decides what the must-have dishes are at a specialty appetizer restaurant, debating crispy fried wings, fried pickles, crab rangoons, and savory conch fritters!

Welcome to Your Average Grow (YAG): Chapter Two!

The community is central to YAG—as Howling mentioned, you guys are YAG, we're just a part of it".

Following the unexpected departure of co-host Johnny, Rev along with Stoney Alpinist and Howlingbuds are joined by their friends TooTall and Phive.

Chapter Two sees YAG evolve into a new, community-focused format.

Rev has decided not to replace Johnny with another permanent co-host, he won't force something that can't be forced. Instead, the main show will transition to a rotating host of several different people within the community. This new structure is designed to highlight the community's curiosity and knowledge. Guests will co-host episodes dedicated to topics they are passionate about or where they can chat with specific people, allowing the community to ask questions they so badly want answered. While the show is moving forward with one main host (instead of two "jackass idiots"), the tone remains candid, though Rev jokes there will be less “f***s”.Bottom line, we ain't going anywhere. Welcome to this new chapter, we’re glad you’re here.

It is with great sadness YAG must inform you that Johnny Apple has decided to move on to other things. The quality of the audio in this episode isn't the best, but it is Johnny's last so it needed to be heard.

Dude lost his mind
