Had a very sunny week this week and HOT, daytime temps hitting 34°C plus humidity pushing almost 40°C. Watering 10L a day if not raining, and every morning the pot looks dry and soil is dry as far down as I can get my fingers. Still getting some yellowing on the leaves so no nutrients for the last 5 days and will do a good defoliation tonight see if that helps. Affected leaves seem to be close to stalk, or in heavily shaded areas, so not a bad thing to remove I figure. Maybe 10 leaves in total, same as last when first noticed 5 days ago. Fingers crossed this does the trick, not too worried though as there is still plenty of new growth and it's looking healthy otherwise.
Also, removed most of the LST ties and added ties to support the branches for when the weight comes on. Kinda starting to wish I had done netting again this year, but hey see how it goes.
Omg. I see a 3+ meter monster coming your way. Hope you have a cherry picker. Lol. Defo going to follow this. And some car straps to prop them monster nodes up.. lol.
Good luck Buddy
@gottagrowsometime, cherry picker, I like that idea! An 8' step ladder + 6' me + old lady reaching pole is going to have to do I hope!
Got a 50lb sand bag ready to go to weigh the skid down
Hmmm. I’m noticing a lack of lady bugs this year too. The eggs might be or likely are moth/caterpillar eggs. When I had them last year I first thought they were aphids too, and it took a day or two this year to clue in again. BT handles them easily, Safers BTK at Crappy Tire.
@Northern_Ent, thanks for the tip! I have used safers spray in the past, seems very effective. I think you may be right about the eggs, didn't spray (yet) and leaves still look healthy. Will hold off unless I see chewing.
Lessen your nutrients 3ml should do of each jug on the bloom unless you spread the top canopy using string ( I think the buds may get too big and boyltrius could have a effect ) your buds are way bigger then mine so far ! We have been getting rain one day a week here - all most perfect-
@CroNicGman, hoping to get up there today to get a good look at the top and make sure she's behaving. Probably thin it out a bit as I haven't touched the fan leaves up there yet.
Good tip on the nutrients, I'll give that a shot
That’s hilarious, I got a few yellow leaves on some of my plants too , your grow is behind the mirror from my mine hehe , wow !!! Look at the height ! Are you gonna get a tall stake in order on both sides in case of super wind? Good job and beautiful ganja tree
@CroNiCGman,ya I'm thinking of getting some 12" 2x2 and making a post I can anchor to the skid, or if I can find some 9' garden poles, but so far longest I've seen is 6'.
