ILGM Big Bud Outdoors

For the Big Bug plants, things just seem to be humming along. These girls are really thirsty, I'm having to give them Cal-Mag twice a week. Being in the forest instead of the deck means they've got a lot more pests to deal with, so I hit them with the neem oil pretty heavy as well. All the plants seem to be growing and stretching pretty intensely, with the exception of the traditional manifold, which seems to be growing evenly. Runt grew 10 inches again this week. Runt is now 62" tall. I think I might have seen pistils, so this might be the last week of veg, which would mean Runt should top out below 8 feet. But if she has another 10" week, I think I'm looking at an 8, 9 foot tall plant. I have never grown an 8-to-9 foot plant. I am torn between my wonder at an 8-to-9 foot plant and what type of yield I would get from that, and the obvious fact that a plant that is 8-to-9 feet tall isn't exactly the most inconspicuous thing in the world.
