The girls have been getting some quality time out side. They come in if it will be a rainy day or heavy rain overnight.
Still water with a little N and TPS Bloom
Girls continue to enjoy their time outside and have really grown a lot the past two weeks. Banana is about 2" taller than Brooklyn. The weather has been a bit variable. Hot (upper 80s) then cool (upper 60s/low 70s) but generally on the warmer side. Status quo with the nutes
For the curious, the two big girls in the white bags are Afghan 90 landrace photos.
The girls come back inside when the weather is uncooperative. Indoor temp is around 70 and humidity around 60-65%. Otherwise pretty much the same as prior weeks.
I've been keeping these girls inside. Sometimes their friends join them. The weather has been stupid hot and random heavy downpours. I do not want any mildew/mold/fungus/anything issues at this point!
Indoor temp is around 70 and I've dialed the humidity down to 55-60%. They are getting their last nutes, TPS Signal and Bloom.
Expect Banana has another week, maybe 10 days. Add a week for Brooklyn. Just a guess, sometimes they take a few longer but I've started checking the trichomes. Brooklyn remains about 2" shorter than the Banana.
Lighting wise I use spider farmer. Don't recall the models. I have two 200W and two 100W.
A bit behind posting these results.
So chopped and wet trimmed on 7/23. Jumped a week on this one as I found a bud which looked like it was going bad. Clipped it and anything near by, chopped the entire plant and did a bud wash as well. Not really concerned as it was close enough when cut. Dried and final trimmed into bags weight was 78g a decent haul considering how little effort I put into this girl. Dutch Passions does have some quality strains.
This plant was easy to grow. Early on it was under lights, then outside in the sun. We had a stretch of very wet/humid/warm weather so it came back inside and stayed under lights with humidity control the last few weeks. This was probably a good call as both it (and the Brooklyn Sunrise) are pretty dense plants and bad things can happen to those.
No smoke report yet, like for it to cure at least two months so look for an update in October
This girl went the additional week I had expected. I did a good check after chopping its friend Banana Blaze just to be sure no signs of bud rot or anything else. Sorry only have the initial wet trim photo, I'll try to add one after I remove from the cure bags next month. She yielded a very nice 82g/2.9oz final dry trimmed/clipped weight going into cure bags.
Smoke report to follow in October.
This girl was very easy to grow. Dense buds but a bit more breathing room on the plant compared to the Banana Blaze. Very easy to grow, some early life outside before weather conditions made indoor the better choice.
They are very good looking. Well done. I had big issues with thrips by switching between in- and outdoor on my last grow. So I wont do that again. Its in or out for me. 😉
@Detoxfox, A lot depends upon height. Once they hit five feet its either move the indoor setup to the garage (I can put the light racks up to 10') or keep them outside. So right now I have two photos outdoors that are now too tall to bring in and the best I can do is shelter them from the worst of the weather. With the autos especially I try to keep them inside if temps are over 85 unless it is super dry. In general I like to avoid excessive rain/humidity and bring the girls inside to avoid.
