First Outdoor Grow with Durban Poison, Frisian Dew & Shaman

Some of the ladies got sunburnt because I put them in direct sunlight without hardening them. Some more than others. This week they were placed in larger pots of approx. 3 litres in pre-fertilised peat-free soil. Then it got windy and we had a heavy thunderstorm. They survived it very well and in my opinion have only grown stronger. After the fourth leaf node, I started topping the plants. So far I can say that Frisian Dew produces the strongest plants with slight sunburn. Durban poison plants have remained somewhat smaller and are most affected by sunburn. Shaman has virtually no sunburn damage and is slightly smaller than Frisian Dew, but looks very healthy and vigorous. However, none of the plants have died, the Durban Poisons are recovering very quickly. Day 35: Frisian Dew and Shaman are real outdoor cracks as far as growth and weather resistance are concerned. The Durban Poison plants are a little more reserved, which is due to the fact that they were regular seeds. A selection still needs to be made. Frisian Dew and Shaman have now been given their final place in 60 litre and 45 litre pots on the patio. The soil used is a mixture of mature compost, garden soil, peat-free potting compost and horn meal (I couldn't find my cattle manure pellets). A non-sticky soil mixture. Summer can come. Maybe they'll grow big enough to work as a privacy screen.
