"Growing in Hell" well close enough, I'm growing outside in the middle of the summer in the Arizona desert, but I'm currently at my second attempt in 10 years from a seed I found in a bag of gorilla glue I think #4 from the dispensary so I planted it outside and given my location in Phoenix Arizona and the summer being here now with 115 degree days sometimes but 106 average daily temp with 0% humidity so I tried an outdoor/indoor combo, which is a small green house built over the in ground plant when temperatures got too hot so I could still use natural sunlight and covered green house to black out plant to control light schedule and temperature with swamp cooler. I have no idea if anyone has ever attempted growing this way (outside in the Arizona desert planting in spring and flowering in evap cooled greenhouse during summer covering to control sunlight) but my plant has been very happy the last 6 weeks since putting in the green house up and brought the temp down with evap cooler and also importantly brought humidity up to appropriate levels just using evap cooler itself most days but added humidifier for really dry days. Since I planted the seed in mid March and with the seasons changing the light schedule was way off so it took 10 weeks of vegetation before I was happy with size to switch to a 12 hour schedule to initiate flowering.

After reading the week description above and also saying I finally updated pics to include the different parts of the plant at different ripeness, I ask when should I harvest? If it's just the 4 pictures up there then I've been lazy to go out and take new pictures starting week 7

Yes I would agree with others you have around 4 weeks left if you want to take it to it’s full potential and terms of a mixed body and head highs. _______________________Definitley flush for the full 2 weeks in 2 steps. First water with the volume of the pot in Luke warm water (20c) drench the pot without too much run off. Wait 10 mins follow up with another load of water 1-2x volume of pot. IMO the water does not need to be PH adjusted when flushing soil.✌️🏻

Also I'm pretty sure the storm caused an imbalance in the p.h. of the soil causing a nutrient lock out too. Not sure if the boomerang helped with that but I'll be a little more involved in future grows testing the soil and such but with this outdoor side of the house in ground plant side project grow I'm not that "testy" I guess I'd put it this time.

@IncognitoGreenThumb, super interesting case study... can't help you but I'm learning. solution : harvest what's ready, and leave what's not until it is... that way you dont have to compromise...

"Congrats on the harvest ! So you have the answer to your question ! You can now pick an answer 😘" @OutForReal this is not a valid answer to me... 😑

The plants looking great. I use fox farm too, when you said you used the comeback formula would that be the boomerang? I've used it on mine when they've had hard times and it seems good...but I'm not flowering like you are, so I'm not sure of the effects. I'm glad I got to see your diary. 😊💚

@IncognitoGreenThumb, mine were on their death bed with heat stroke the other morning, and I watered em with that boomerang and other stuff, and it was so funny watching them visibly pick up over the next 30 min. Probably heat stroke and thirst.

@Experimentgreen, It was the boomerang comeback formula and it definitely helped because my plant was struggling. I ordered it the second after the storms hit and once I feed it to her after waiting for it in the mail for 3-4 days she looks like a different plant now but bounced back within 48 hrs after giving it to her, as in that next days morning she was perky and a brighter green again, not so droopy and yellowish.

Wow! I am surprised its still there... Such a strong winds. It shall return back to normal in a week from stress. You might try to add some root simulator, protector for the stress to your solution.

Was that the baobob that hit AZ last week? I saw the footage on our local news. 😱😞

I put my plants under a 600w by the window that way they get both sunlight from the sun and my 600 metal halide . that boost the grow very well its called hardening. Not only that but if a fairy comes by and sprinkles some fairy dust that should help..... For future grows.

That is quite an adventure. I'm glad to read that you are ok! I'm sure the plant will recover just fine as well. A new greenhouse does sound like a good idea!

Holy F’ing shit! That read like a mystery novel. I was riveted! Dust devils and mini twisters are abundant and random in the US SW desert. Such extremes! That, combined with little natural water - it’s a miracle anyone lives there at all! Best of luck with this grow, and the future green house. Consider moving, if that is an option. Global warming. Colorado river drying up. It does not bode well for residents of the American Southwest for the next few decades. Good luck friend

I think the curling and brown tips I see in the photos are due to excessive nutes. I don't think it's the sun. Those brown tips won't go away when you flush, but any new growth should look normal once you do. I know you are close to harvest, the flushing will do her good. By the way, she is a very nice looking plant!
