Sept 10th
This week was windy and finally some decent shower.
Nature was begging for it but as we all know it was a headache for me personally.
I went to visit the girls and noticed how the wind was taking its toll.
Killer Kush (the biggest) was banking 15 degrees and the Outdoor Grapefruit was acting as a windscreen for Maroc.
She needed some more defoliating to prevent moisture getting stuck in tight places. I pulled the net further down to improve airflow...a little to much. When i pinned the lower ring to the ground a big branch snapped😪
Emergency repair was done and I believe she will be all right.
She was reinforced and i build a nice tent over the wound to prevent water coming in. Open from the bottom still alowing air to pass underneath.
How the heck do you avoid the PMD? Maybe my location and proximity to the wild puts me in a worse spot but my plants would be riddled with that much foliage lol.
@MalicetoDream,
Btw proximty to the wild is a big advantage. Make sure you have ample lighthours.. most importantly mornings to evaporate dew and prune fron veg on to get max out airflow inside the plant and leave flower sites on outer 30-60 cm Indica - sativa
( depending on strain)
My guerilla grows never were pest plaged of ever mildew . Just budrot(grey mould) in wet periods.
I promise to release footage later of my guerilla outdoor scrog. 18 planys 7 strains.
There is an army of bees and.hornets and all sort feasting there.
It is beautifull.
No balanced system suffers from pest...those will be prey.
I took this diary down for the time being. Affraid to share too much.
@MalicetoDream,
See bro, that's a matter of genes. And early pruning.. hollow central cone
Find what works in your region. We get the worst weather in Benelux ,from mid september on through october is mould season. I select on early finishing strains. Flower should kick in at 16 hours of daylight couple weeks after summer solstice.
I've got guerilla diary going that will be published when finished due to stealth..similar story, genes and airflow
Still...praying they ripen before end of october
Very nice. Seems like a really good outdoor strain. There’s also a grapefruit strain from House of the Great Gardener I want to try someday. Grapefruit is sometimes known as Vancouver Sour Citrus and is an old school personal fave. 👍 Good luck with the rest of the harvest.
