Two Scoops got chopped this week-about a week earlier than planned. She got nailed by a runaway patio umbrella that the wind took hold of and it broke one of her branches - hence the early harvest. Oh, that and some bud rot. Found that lovely surprise on the top third of one of the colas. I had to cut that bud away ☹️ Those humid summer days are brutal.
She was developing some nice pink and purple colours as she started to fade - a pity I couldn’t see the rest of the show.
Plant is hanging to dry in a tent at about 60% rh. Smoke report and harvest deets to come.
Thanks for tuning in✌️
I love the cage, hate the tree rats.
I saw some around my veggie garden the other day so I started barking at them. I think my dog would be more effective lol.
Looks great. Nice and happy. good luck battling the elements this year.
@Stunflower... I feel your pain, I really do!! Had to chop some of my ladies early because of foxtailing and bud rot... no choice! But it looks like you'll get some decent smokes out of this grow...
@GrowingGrannie, You are so right about those difficult summers to come - sadly. Like you, I’m wondering if outdoor growing again will be worth the effort.
All the best with your crops!
@StunFlower, Thank you so much! What a nice thing to say!
This summer has been utterly cruel to a whole lot of grows.... sigh.... I think we should ALL prepare for difficult summers ahead... For ME, it means I'm only going to grow sativas outside IF I ever grow outside again!!
@GrowingGrannie, Thanks, GG. Yes, thankfully it won't be a total loss (like it was last summer). I still have a lot to learn about outdoor growing. The lack for control can be incredibly frustrating. I also know I could/should be much more strategic about the strains I try to grow outside and pick things that are more mould resistant and finish earlier (as far as photoperiods go). BTW, your BruceLemonDiesel is looking great 😍
