Not sure what happened but im waiting to add nutes till I get on up. The nutes in the water showed ph of like 4. Idk if my ph things are wromg or whats going on. Other than that the planta are beauts. Plant # 1 is SO bushy. I defoliated her last week and you cant even tell this week 😅 7/12 just took pictures💚 7/16 watered with nutes

9/6 Plant #1 is throwing out heavy pistils. Plant #2 is stretching alot, she's also rrcovering from the magnesium lock out/ph issues, but she isn't throwing out pistils yet. 9/8 both plants are still stretching surprisingly and both plants FINALLY HAVE PISTILS! slightly excited/relieved. On a side note, our weather has been on the offensive recently. Weve had towns evacuated due to forest fires and public safety warnings about high winds. Came to see my plants completely toppled over on each other. Thankfully they were in pots and they looked fine. 9/10 still stretching and filling out, shooting thick pistils, cant wait to see her in a couple more weeks💚🤘

9/16 I'm excited to see these start flowering. They started later than my sativa pheno blueberry, but they're coming on stronger, and faster, getting bustier and stretching mkre obviously than the sativa I have. Its interesting becaise im new to growing, had a few indoor grows before this but its interesting to see exactly HOW different each plant grows in an outdoor or natural setting💚

10/3 plants coming along nicely. Im worried about our weather though. Some of my plants have been developing mold. 10/5 looking more and more frosty. Im so concerned about mold forming and I don't know what to do at this point in flowering.

I broke my phone this week and as a result don't have any pictures for this week. But I can note that I decided to shove them indoors into one of my grow tents to get them away from our dreadful weather that has decided to prove to be too harmful towards the finishing of my plants

Still have the majority of both plants. Growth has been slow ever since moving them inside. But there's purpling showing up on some of the buds. Probably due to it being freezing temps outside recently and their only in my garage so they're probably getting cold. But it's probably helped with the bug problem as well. A couple weeks ago I would've said that this grow was a complete disaster and thought it was done for but thinks are looking up again. 11/6 just been giving straight water for awhile. Still harvesting in sections when they are ready

This was a REALLY long grow. With lots of up and downs. Started this grow indoors in February. Moved them outdoor for the summer. They didn't finish in time before the rain so I moved them back inside for the last couple months for them to finish without being consumed completely by botyritis. Both of these plants were different phenos. I had problems with one more than other. But the one that was impressive pure indica looking, was the one that had trouble with mold towards the end because the buds were sooo solid. I would love to try and grow these indoors without the bug and mold issues. And love to see how impressive they could be
