2019 Outdoor Ontario

OMG Murph! I am crushed for you mate. I can't even imagine how you feel. It leaves a sick feeling in my stomach not to mention all that hard work, dedication, money and love you put into those girls. Damn breaks my heart Those FUCKERS!!! For years when pot was illegal, all you had to worry about were the cops. Today it's legal but you have to worry about assholes stealing your crops? Fuck them! I wish you caught them red handed so you could have killed them lol although it's probably best you didn't cuz dicks like that have nothing to lose and you could have got hurt. So for that alone consider it a blessing, I'm sure this is just a set back for you however if it isn't, try not to let this experience hinder you from growing again. Wishing you peace and happy vibes 💪 👊

You grew some monsters, sorry to see what happened man. My fear all year, so many people in my area experienced the same thing. Crooks man

Thos motherfucks man I hate to see that happen to ppl spend all that time and everything put ur love in to your plants and some worthless piece of s*** comes along and takes your hard work sincerely sorry to hear fucking assholes

Hi gro! 😀 What a growdiairies! 💚🌱

Beautiful 👌

Lovely! @Murph75

Hey Murph. 👋 Your journal caught my eye seeing as you’re a fellow Ontario outdoor grower. If the vinegar doesn’t work, try a milk recipe. Those sure are some massive plants, but you’ll save yourself a lot of waste by thinning them out. It will allow more air flow and light penetration which is super key come mid to end of September. No one want to see bud rot, and it’s inevitable with our cooler Ontario nights and heavy morning dew. Them big buds need some time to dry out, and we’re losing 3 minutes of sun a day now. Good luck, I’ll be watchin.

Those are huge!! Hope they make it to the finish line before the cold closes in

Glad you still had one! Chances are that you knew those who took them since they sympathetically left you one. Been growing outdoors in Ontario since '85 and they only guarantee you have is that people will be looking for your plants. Go with shorter strains, but they will always come back now since they scored last year, and you did not build a compound(law) to keep them out. I topped 2' off my Moby Dick four different times last year and it was still at the top of my 7' fence when finished. It was in a compound(and I own a dog), so I harvested all 4 last year. Don't give up though, or those pricks have won.

Damn my condolences! Just stumbled upon you diary. Wishing you some great Karma your way for 2020! You deserve a trophy for that outdoor grow!

That's a real bummer man ☹️ There is a special place reserved in Hell for worthless fuckers who steal outdoor grows from hobbyists like us. The Gelato looks nice tough. Hope u get a decent tasty smoke of it👌

So sorry to hear that. I would of loved to see them up close. They were beautiful Giants.

Murph, that sucks big time. Although it’s pretty difficult I always try to look for the silver lining. You grew some monsters, but your space is clearly compromised outdoor. Next year, can you make them more portable and keep them in a locked shed/garage? Also, did you call the police? If not, you should consider it. Is Canadian growers have the right to grow our 4 plant, and theft is theft. Likely won’t amount to anything, but we need to show out government where the issues are their their pot policy. It sucks, but you still did get to harvest, so congrats on that, and enjoy the smoke.

Groomie, I can't believe what happened😱 I was looking at your diary the previous day and was amazed by the plants. I feel so sorry for you and angry at the same time, thinking somebody did this.😪

Hey man I delt with a mild case of white powdery mildew in late June early August. This is the mix I used. 1L sprayer bottle with 1 ml of hydrogen peroxide 27%. Mixed with (enzymes komplete natural cleaner )4ml. Spray the effected area. I used this before we started flowering in Ontario. I am not a fan of spraying anything when the plants are flowering unless it's absolutely necessary. Hope this helps

Good luck, they do look like they need a few weeks and it's really bad mildew timing/territory that.

Sooo lit.

Nice man 🍀👌🏼👌🏼 I would wait for them to become mostly milky👍🏼 There is no problem with giving them anotheR week or two

Hey man, first of all SHAD, YES look me this beast lmbo holy molly that stash will last your HOURS ! " Although I want the buds to fill out a bit more, I'd be happy to start planning harvest, but the biggest deterrent for me right now are the trichomes. The jewelers loupe is showing ALL milky and some even clear, almost zero amber showing up" looks like your loupe is juuust not strong enough to really see colors on the trichomes so they will all appear milky and full white but it's a magnification issue. You're looking for 40x minimum 60x comfortable. If you've got more than 40x and you still see all milky , then it's ready for the chop as far as i'm concerned but it's really a matter of taste, what i say is that plenty of trichomes turn amber after the chop anyway. With bigger magnification you'll notice some ambers but sometimes the ambers arent ambers but more off white, beige, or light amber. that's up to genetics. According to me it's the first thing, but either way i would leave these to go at least another week probably two maybe more, you're right to check the trichs though, just double check your instrument has the required magnification. Hope this helps ! 🚀
