The day before week 19 there was a rainstorm and there was a strong wind and I found one of the plants lying on the ground with the twist tie snapped on one of the stones. I reconnected the twist tie and added an additional line for support. All of the plants are flowering now for around 4 days to a week possibly, i'll know if its 21 days. Its possible to make it to Day 50-57 Flower but if it freezes to early in October it could only be Day 41+ Flower, the Rockstar Kush likes to flower for 56-67+ days and not needing to flower for 80-100 days but you can if you want to but it isn't necessary. Day 136 The Rockstar plants look like they need to be pruned again and id prune them in the beginning of flower and sometime close to week 2 or around that time, some people prune a week into flower. I think theres alot of branching that is large but isn't as large as the main stem and along those branches after you remove the medium sized buds on the side branching that can be hand trimmed, there are alot of small sizes that your not going to want to trim by hand. Im not an expert on pruning, I only know that the small branching is to time consuming to trim. I look at it as the large size, medium size and then theres a huge portion after removing that and usually it gets stripped off really fast and all of it breaks apart, it takes a long time to remove them individually by hand and thats usually not done unless your trying to preserve the small size portion and not break it up into smaller pieces. The Alien OG plants are looking a few days ahead of the Rockstar, they might be Day 7-10, im not really thinking 14 days in flower but it might be closer to that so id definitely think that would be a late flowering strain and the Rockstar would be way later making it a greenhouse growing strain. I did end up pruning on day 136 and removed 1/4 of a 5 gallon bucket from the Rockstar plants and I also pruned some of the smaller branching on the Alien OG plants but they don't look better after the pruning as in kind of bare on the lower stalks and branching so it was visually better before pruning and thats where I kind of give up on pruning outdoor plants. Today I also mixed up my first reservoir of flower nutrients and those are also fed at 6ml/gal AB with 5ml/gal Pro Cal but I did feed them fresh water today, ive been feeding them fresh when the reservoir has been low and the pump runs dry. Some people are superstitious about this plant, in the dark of night im there. I had two more plants that fell over and one of the twist ties snapped again and those were supported on two sides, so I added support for 4 sides on each plant so they don't fall over. I did end up breaking another large branch and almost another really large branch and three small branches were snapped. Theres no way to actually to figure this out and see the plants grown like this without doing this but it probably is easier to try and put the rebar in the ground, the fact is that they don't usually fall over but if the wind is strong enough and blowing in the right direction they can fall over. Also people really like seeing the rock formations and that is a visual effect, you see it in landscaping. Im only thinking that the grass, trees and rocks are mostly what is causing it, people like natural materials. Im not sure what that is. The really huge hurdle with growing in September in my climate is that the averages are only in the 70's during the day up until the 16th and then they drop into the 60's so what that means is that they need to start flowering beginning of August because they don't flower quite the same in the 60's, its a really long cold season finishing them in October but its the most you could see of this plant as in its the farthest distance you could go, its the highest possible amount of time you could grow the plant, its the most cold you could show the plant growing as in its not wasted time im gaining visual stimulation mentally. Theres 11 days of warmer weather in September but that means I have to go through 7 months of cold to get 4 1/2 months of warmer weather and thats where I am sad about life not being about gardening. Where you see population growth its in the 60's in October and doesn't freeze on average for all of the months, its not that we don't like the cold, we just don't need to. What were mostly seeing here is freezing averages from November through to April but no population growth. The temperatures of the upper mantle are 440 °F to 1700 °F and its 670km but the crust is 100km, so its possible to live here as a subterranean civilization and supply geothermal power. There is a missed connection on growth. Its a few months on the surface before returning to civilization. Theres only a few climate zones that are actually warm enough and theres alot of it thats cold in July and August. Its almost like I can't see it as being possible without accepting the colder weather. It seems if the days reach the low 20's it doesn't seem that warm, i'll put on a sweater and its getting colder than that, its gotta get up to 26 °C or 78 °F. If your freezing for 3 months your probably thinking 2 more months is probably not ok to keep doing and were looking at 6 months of it. Its nice you get the Spring and September cooling to October but you gotta be able to go somewhere else seems to be what it is but they like it colder but it needs geothermal or something easier to connect to. It needs an AI system to backup the the average intelligence because these projects are pretty difficult.

Drive your stakes into the ground.

@Todzilla,yhea you can pull the rebar with lawn staples probably I like using rock, you can hold the rebar in with a lawn staple if its not in super deep but I could probably hammer it in as deep as the container, I think that for photography purposes the rock explains the plant, its like the sands of time unfolding before you, you can't explain why something so large is so small yet so many times larger.

@blackskaarj1,I use lawn staples in rocky hard soil and it works for stabilization quite well. The staples are the lowest cost and easiest to install. I also have used bamboo, stakes, and rebar. They all work for wind. You just gotta get it done.

@Todzilla,no you can't use lawn staples you need to take a piece of rebar hammer it into the ground and then put a long piece in and your likely to either hit up against another rock or it'll work or not at all.

Hey, you can get a magnifying glass app for your phone that works good enough to see trichomes. No need for a loupe or physical magnifier. Can get good bud pics easily, even using an old phone.

I did feel that not having any structures or roads in the way of the plants as they grow is better visually, the material that the plants are up against affects how you feel about them. Its better than landscaping that you would normally see, its better. I do encounter alot of wildlife though, its definitely there to see. Its my experience vs your idea of what is supposed to be enjoyable and that means I couldn't imagine it being a good idea for August and September because of the fire season but that is what im looking at.
