9/22 I was correct in my assumption and correct in picking my harvest date. The buds I had left on the branches of the blueberry plant were eaten from the bottom up on almost every bud. Looks like a hat. They eat up the stem and leave like the very top of the bud. I'll try to grab a picture for you guys. Trichs were milky with some amber but the heads were full. It looks amazing and smells even better. Very pretty flowers. I smoked a bud that earwigs had chewed off. It only rolled half a joint but it was awesome! The hash I made is bomb too. I still have tons of material to sieve when I have time. The two little plants are doing amazing despite the horrible weather we are having. It's been pouring for what seems like weeks. I do want to point out that plant doctor is an amazing product. I fully believe it saved my blueberry plant when all the others died. It has also suppressed all signs of wpm. If you've seen my previous diaries the blueberry is hanging in the same spot as before. A string and a half. I'll update the harvest report when it's dry. It was great that my plant got washed by the rain and was able to totally dry out before I harvested. I've NEVER seen trichomes this CLEAN and Sparkly. It's like a crystal forest. I believe the last feed was on the 18th. I've had some personal issues so my diary is a little off. 9/23 Rain has ended for now. It's supposed to rain mon, Tues, wed. Though. The two little plants left have a few weeks left. No pest damage. No signs of fusarium. Plant Doctor has even kept pm from raising its ugly head. I need to do a harvest report on that blueberry plant. Turned out MUCH better than I assumed it would. I'll put that in harvest report when I have time. I think I may do one more beastie bloom feed before I switch to cha ching. I find it amazing that this short amount of distance has rectified any problems. The bag is only 10 gallons and the pot 3 so if need be I will move them inside the barn to finish or avoid inclement weather. It's not like the others that were 7ft tall and trellised all up. Its an easy move. 9/24 FED 1 gallon TODAY. ADDED CHA CHING INSTEAD OF BEASTIE at same rate. Wind is ridiculously. I started making a make shift support but the plant almost broke so I just put them in the garage until this is over. I'd you look at the cleaves yiy can see the Wind damage. Other than that the plant looks great. Wind is 30mph with gusts up to 55mph. I'll bring them back out tomorrow. I'll do the blueberry harvest when I have time. 9/25 I'm super glad I was able to put both plants in last night. The leaves on the NYCSA show wind burn. They just look a little crinkled in spots. With gusts up to 65mph I was lucky I got there in time to save them. I thought the 3 gallon might go airborne lol. That's with a wind blockahe on 3 sides. At least these plants are healthy and can go until I decide they are peak. Having a smaller bag makes it extremely easy to move these plants inside. I buried that cutting so deep when transplanting that like half an inch above the soil are two quarter sized buds. I also noticed slight pillar damage (one spot on one leaf, I know) so I treated with BT early this morning. 1tsp per half gallon. I will take pictures of the blueberry I harvested once I trim some stuff up and have time to do the harvest abs smoke report. Super happy that the plant was even able to survive. Let alone produce good smoke. 9/26 More fucking rain. I've been. Super busy but I'm go8ng to try to get the blueberry harvest and smoke report done. Multiple doc apps today. Rrrrrrr 9/27 Rain. 9/28 Says it's gonna rain today. The little 9lb kush is very close to done. Trichs are turning amber. I'm keeping an eye on it. The NYCSA seems to have am extremely long flowering time (up to 10 weeks) but it's extremely healthy. I FIMMED it and the results were amazing. It's got like five different tops at that split. I lucked out. I was going to apply plant doctor again but I held off. I've seen zero wpm and these plants obviously missed the fusarium or I would he seeing signs. I need to get my trim on and post some pictures of my blueberry. I want to actually do the harvest and smoke report correctly (and I've had a lot of doctors appointments lately) so I don't wantvto just half ass it.

This is more a "website specific" ? Fone has no storage and won't allow me to take pictures. Is there a way to upload photos directly to the grow diary app ,without using the memory of phone. Like on FB when you can just take a fresh picture? Just trying to make it till its fixed

How much pH down can I add to water to safely lower the pH of my soil? It's h frog and I've only watered a couple times. They were rootbound when got in 1g and I transplant to 3g. Ph is like 7.5-.8.5 with a soil gauge. Any other ideas? Thanks folks.

You never want to adjust out of range. As others have said your plants look good so no need to get it in range by flushing with PH water. Continue as normal, But make sure your water is in the range of 6.0-7.0. Never go out of that range even when adjusting.

Bugs definitely spread disease. Leaf hoppers specifically caring many diseases. This grow is destroyed because of fusarium oxysporum. I don't want people getting misinformation.

Can someone please look over this week and last week of my diary? I've lost two massive plants in the span of a couple days time. One may have been rootbound (in 50 gals) and this is in a 20gallon. Roots did smell a little musty. Should I try a peroxide flush? Any other ideas?

Damn... I don't know what to say except that I'm growing here in Maine myself and it HAS been a bitch of a season! And I chose THIS year to do my first-ever outdoor grow... It sure sounds to me like root rot - but that wouldn't make any sense if the ground underneath them was dry! I know you want to learn - and maybe someone else will be able to point you in a logical direction - but you've asked the commercial grower and I'll echo what he said: shit happens... and 1 (now 2) plants in 4 years... you shouldn't be ashamed!! The humidity has been grotesque, the heat, the bugs, the fungus, the wind, the everything... I'd take this opportunity to, as you said, to spread your grow out a little bit to get better air flow through the rest of your grow. One thing popped into my head as I was reading what the commercial grower said to you... I've just recently read a rather crazy article about how we're planting trees (bear with me) the wrong way... that we encourage them to become rootbound... that we should instead of digging a nice round hole, dig a square hole (sounds daffy to me) and KEEP THE BOTTOM OF THE HOLE SLANTED, planting the tree at the top of the little hill so the roots are encouraged to grow DOWN, not AROUND... So all of that to say, if these were clones, maybe they DID get rootbound in their circular pots and needed more encouragement to grow DOWN... like bottom watering at the beginning? Just a thought.... (and most of that thought was a little weird!)... Good luck, man... I think we here in Maine, like in so many other parts of the world, are going to have to contend with conditions we've never had to contend with before... but onward and upward... Good luck.....

Hey folks. I'm looking to do indoor this winter. I'd like to get a tent with everything kinda ready to go. I would like a nice light ad well. Would I be better off buying a complete tent or buying each item separately. Looking to fit a few plants. Lookin 4 opinions

A couple of 2x4's some screws and tacks, and some black and white plastic from the hydroponic store and you can build any size tent you like. You can use a cheap pond liner from home depot for the floor, then you can water to runoff all you like and just vacuum it up with a wet vac.

Hey Smeagol, you need a transparent roof. Since you have a ready-made metal structure, to build a roof with trasparent PVC will be easy and cheap and It will drastically reduce the problems related to excessive soil moisture. To fight earwigs consider a systemic pyrethroid, if stigmas aren't yet apperead this will be absolutely safe. It's the time to think to build a greenhouse for her

@masterofsmeagol, at this stage your plants are compromised and a cheapy plastic top will protects them from morning dew but don't expect miracles. In a dryer climate like mine a soft plastic top is enough and in case of hail I promptly add a plastic net layer. The plastic cover is fixed while the net is removable. I've used PE ultra clear plastic tablecloths (5 dollars). For the next year think to build a top with rigid plastic like polycarbonate (here 5 sq. meters cost 250 bucks). You have to control the amount of water that reaches the ground trying to keep the environment dry even if it always rains. Planting into the ground requires anyway a drainage layer, 1.30 ft minimum is obligatory. In plain soil plants can withstand everything

@Rap_a_cap, you are right this year. However all the prior years were fine? My commercial friend said that putting a top on "just so buds don't get wet" is pointless. They will be covered in morning dew everyday and if the roof collapses it can crush everything. He said the hails devastating though. He uses pallet bags to cover his. I still think I can get MOST of the rain off the plant and soil with a top. If not maybe bags? May cage is just wire. The sides are all open.

@masterofsmeagol, you're always welcome. It's clear at this point that all issues of yours are caused by too wet environment. Do you want to win the battle with Maine's climate? Change the grow site, spend time to properly prepare the soil in winter, plant your next girls directly into the ground and never defoliated the plants.

Oh this is so painful to see - but you're right to keep the diary going - so OTHERS can see and so you, yourself can look back to see if you missed something and when. I'm SO sorry... Maine's weather has NOT been good to outdoor crops at all this year.... we can only hope NEXT year is better - and turn to our indoor grows... at least THERE, we don't have to contend with Mother Nature...

@GrowingGrannie, yes it sure is a sorry sight. Yeah the weather where i am has been crazy. I havent seen anything like it. Oh well though. Thats ok. We cant hit a grandslam every time we are up to bat. I changed the diary name so it might aid others in finding it. I should've taken the last two down today. I was busy though. I have a feeling tomorrow may be the end of the last two infected. Well.....that I know are infected. Blueberry MAAAY be but it isn't showing the same signs. It has some issues for sure but not the stem cancer or staining or the wilt. Yet. Only time will tell. No sigms of on the cuttings i took either. Ill put some pictures of those uo as well. Those look healthy. Thanks for stopping by @GrowingGrannie

Hey Smeagol, why do you use pots instead of plain soil? Local laws? Your choice? Stay safe Mate
masterofsmeagol
masterofsmeagol
@Rap_a_cap, well it's a combination of a few different things. Mainly it's because I can't dig at this location. I'm hoping to change locations next year. I'd prefer to go in ground where the soil is better. However, using bags or pots allows me the ability to transport them inside a very large building (used to house heavy equipment) if it becomes necessary. It usually doesn't but it's nice to have the option. Even though by fall the bags are usually rooted right to the ground....Thanks for stopping by! Happy growing my friend!

Hey, really nice diary. I was looking at your fox farm review..(about the salt) have you tried Green House Feeding mineral line, that mixed with their bioenhancer seems to be doing me ok. Still some tip burn, but putting that down to me. Some lovely results.. so lucky to have outdoors.

Hey fellow growers. If any of you veteran outdoor growers wouldn't mind, take a look at my diary and leave some constructive criticism. It would be good to hear from other folks.
