Girls are starting to stretch with some early signs of flower.
Critical mass starting to smell a bit stronger with strong growth and looks healthy.
Medical mass is still a bit skinny and is showing less signs of flower than the other two.
Adding some weak banana skin tea to one watering this week
That's too bad about the aphids. The defol was way too late and too heavy, defs affected the results. I have spoken with a lot of outdoor growers and most said not to touch them unless its necessary. I would recommend spraying insecticidal soap 3/4 the way through veg and it should stop the bugs in their tracks. Usually takes 2 sprays 2 weeks apart. I had bugs bad last and did the spraying this year with awesome results. Next year you'll be able to grow some monsters with the experience!
It's nice to see someone with the similar latitude as Sask on here posting. Happy growing my dude.
@jbirdstheword,
Hey! Thanks for the input! Buds are fattening slowly but suspect you’re right on smaller yield. Tempted to take them down but gonna go 1 more week. Always learning!
