Finally past the extreme heat of summer. Trying to dial in the correct amounts of water and nutrients because they seem to be getting too much or too little of one or both now that it’s a little cooler and maybe not needing as much water. Still continuing to grow out the plant that got pollinated just to use it for canna-butter
or something similar. Hoping like hell that my other ones didn’t get pollinated as well.
@Northern_Ent, thanks for the tip, I will try that. I was always afraid to add moisture with this much heat, because I thought it would create too much humidity and put me at risk of getting powdery mildew or other similar ailments.
@BurnCenter, yeah those are photos. A fine water misting with a garden hose a couple or few times a day during the hottest periods helps cool the plants off and provides some humidity which is also needed. Evaporative cooling works great, and also make sure outside of bags stay wet so the roots don’t overheat in direct sun.
That’s really fucking hot, and cannabis stops photosynthesis at about 27C so a sunshade or water mist will likely help. Good luck.
@HerbalEdu, yes, they are most definitely photos instead of autos. I should change the heading of my diary. I addressed it in one of the comments on one of the weeks but the seed bank sent me the wrong seeds. I have some Auto’s that are baby seedlings right now that I will be starting a diary for this week.
@NegotiatedBubble,
Seeds were not free, but they were on a pretty good sale. The company went out of business right after my order though, so I was thinking that
they just gave me whatever to fill my order because they knew they were going out of business and wouldn’t be held accountable. It just sucks because all the other seats I ordered. I don’t know what they are either. I don’t even know if they’re the correct strains, auto or photo.
Incredible!! I don’t think I’ve seen Autos this big - I can’t wait to see your harvest - I also like your choices of seeds, def have a good palette :)
I’ll be checking back whenever you post - excited to see how they do with the heatwave!
@Walter_the_Ragamuffin, hey there, thanks for your comment. I meant to change the info on the strains earlier. These turned out to be all photos instead of Autos. The Seedbank I ordered them from went out of business right after my order so I think they just sent me whatever. I know they’re not autos, but I hope they’re at least the strains they’re supposed to be.
@Josephmother, thank you, good luck with your little ones. I also have three little autos from Royal Queen Seeds that I started a couple weeks ago that I will be doing a diary on soon.
Depending on where you're located, outdoor plants should begin flowering anywhere from now till the end of August and flower till mid to late October. Looking amazing so far! Keep up the good work, you're plants seem very happy.
