July 6: I love this plant. Yes, cannabis in general, but I mean Bruce Banner Fast specifically. Manifolded to 16 colas and now 25 days of veg left before I start force flowering on August 1.
July 7: doing a bit of defoliation and leaf tucking to let the growth tips get maximum sunlight. So far so good I think. Plain pHed water.
July 8: went and bought Power Bloom and some malted barleyโฆdonโt need them for another couple of weeks but getting ready. Lazy compost tea in evening.
I started plants a bit later this year, using a smallish pot, and will force flower soon all of which leads to a smaller plant. I donโt have room or want a huge cannabis plant in my backyard and manifolding controls the height too.
July 10: added a couple handfuls of malted barley as a top dressing. Will add Power Bloom in a week or so.
July 11: looks like about 5 inches growth in four days.
@Northern_Ent,Good morning, Woke up this morning to -2c, frost all over everything. I forgot to bring my little mystery plant in, it was pretty much frozen so I don't know of it will survive or not ๐ต . Everything in the greenhouse survived with no issues, it was +5c in the greenhouse this morning . You can still go an hour south from Dryden before you hit the border at Fort Francis, International Falls. I don't go that way very often but I do go to Dryden now and then for supplies etc., my Wife and I take a ride on the Harleys and go for a burger at the chipstand once in awhile,(great burgers and reasonably priced) it's about a 2 hour round trip from where we live.
Smok'em if you got'em!!!
@northernMike, summers here really are very good. I remember driving out to Ontario and seeing a rental truck in Dryden, near the 49th parallel, saying โwe know the Northโ but itโs as far south as you can go in western Canada. I know winters in the shield are hardcore, it was just funny to be thinking how far south we were and then to see that. Cheers.
@Northern_Ent, I lived in Edmonton in 1986-87 when that big tornado went through, I still have the newspaper from that day packed away somewhere. I worked at an Italian restaurant called the San Remo as a dishwasher and prepper six days a week after school including Sundays. I still have a couple of cousins in Edmonton, but I haven't talked to them in over thirty years.
Later!!
@yan402, Iโve made pressed hash from dried flowers in years past, but this is first year using fresh frozen. Will do cold curing this time (couple months in fridge) which is apparently known as piatella hash. See my Golosa diary for previous hash making.
Wow buddy!! super nice budsย
What an amazing grow so far - good job and well done ๐ค
Happy Growing & cant wait for your upcoming weeks ๐ฑ
Cheers, Bud Boutique ๐ฉโ๐พ
@BudBoutique, thanks, eh? Itโs been a longer than normal season but the last plants are coming down in the next few days.
Snow is forecast for Monday (four days from now) and that will be another season done. Drilled a couple holes with the plan to take it down in 3 days.
