Nice. I was following you last year and comparing amnesia grows, but I ended up having a seed fest thanks to a neighbor's plant. Back at it this year with a couple of varieties. My grow feature will be for Humboldt Sour Diesel this year, good grow to you man.

@dalemac, so far the sour d is doing well. I am excited about a strain I accidentally germinated in December. I call her Back Alley Kush but I suspect it is Wedding Cake female crossed with Amnesia Haze male.

@RADE245, Seed fest is kinda the story of my life right now. I still have at least 4 varieties of seeds acquired last summer that I won't get to this year for sheer lack of time. I currently have a major crop of autoflowers (mainly CBD varieties) which will all be harvested by July more or less... then the photoperiod babies take over. With the exception of the Wonder Pie for a contest grow - I'm growing old school stuff this summer. Because I'm getting old. 😁 I grew a Sour D clone a couple summers ago when I grew my Durban Poison that was a very popular diary, but I had to give her away at he time. Love that strain.

hey it looks amazing. I got a couple of questions. do you know why mine has gotten so tall and hasn't grown outward or anything like that? My second question is did you do LST at all?

@GingaHulk369, Hey there... your girl is looking a little spindly and I can only think she might be reaching for light. But it doesn't look like your lights are too far away. My girl was only 6 to 8" high in her 3rd and 4th weeks and that's relatively normal when I start my girls indoors under LED lights. The spacing between your nodes (pairs of leaves) is too large for such a young plant. As a general rule I don't mess with LST very much (unless I need to repair something - cannabis is very repairable), but I'm regular user of topping cannabis plants. I usually top my plants twice - and that's enough to turn most plants into bushes.

How many times did you top your white widow in total? I’m growing her now and I want to maximize buds for sure

@nyalexas, I'm still getting used to autoflower behavior, but it seems most of those girls are programmed to start flowering in week 4, so if you top a plant it needs to be done before flowering starts. I tried topping a couple autos this spring and one worked (Strawberry Nuggets) and one didn't (Cosmic Queen). I think I waited too long on Queenie. But that's why I make diaries.. can't keep all this stuff in your head forever.... sometimes not even past the next vape session. 😎

nyalexascommented4 years ago

@dalemac, very informative, thank you. Now I have a couple auto strains to I’ll be growing later. As you mentioned that they are different beasts, would I not top them at all? I’ve only grown the 2 fem photo plants. Thanks in advance!! You’re great

@nyalexas, I generally top all my photoperiod plants twice (autoflowers are different animals), I don't think I've ever felt the need for a 3rd topping. The first time you only cut the primary stem and you "break" the topical dominance of the plant. 2nd time around you're cutting the 4 tops that developed after the first cut - that develops into like 16 tops - somewhere. All the girls on my patio have been topped twice and with 5 plants there ain't much room for me walking around anymore. 😎

dalemaccommented5 years ago

@DinafemSeeds, hehe well actually she's still vegging in my tent under KIND K3 LED lighting for a couple more weeks - she looks good - but she will be transplanted into a much larger fabric container and moved outdoors in a couple weeks - around the summer solstice - after my current crop of autoflowers gets harvested and out of the way. 😬

I see you are Bay-Local as well. How were your trichomes at harvest?

@dalemac, thanks for the clarity. To be fair, I agree that she DOES look like there should be amber trichs everywhere, given the yellowing pattern and apparent bud maturity. Sometimes this plant is just a mystery. LOL

dalemaccommented4 years ago

@@@Sonoma_Sungrown, That's one of the problems I've had with this girl. Can't figure her out. I'll be damned if I can find any amber in her trichomes - I think it should be there but it's like hiding. Plenty of cloudy and not much clear at last point. Been a weird year. Looking forward to seeing a blue sky again. 😨 My decision to pull the plug was based on bud damage from the heat wave more than what trichomes were showing me.

@dalemac Hi friend, here in the southern Mediterranean sun hits hard, two months of hell are waiting for my girls. Screens serve 2 purposes: shade and privacy. All the insects, mites and cutters are worried about the dozens of roses, bulbs, flowers and vegetables and don't care about the grass so far. In April I launched 200 ladybug larvae. I am worried about bedbugs, the invasion will start in a month. I'll probably cover them with a mosquito net. Today I had to completely change the shape of the nets because these exuberant girls in two days filled all the circular spaces that I had created. Thursday I will update with new photos. Stay safe Bro.

@Rap_a_cap, If that's 100 F that's indeed a very strong sun. Curious about the screens around many of your plants - is that to keep critters away? Nice looking garden.

Love the way you do your thing so nicely in your garden my friend, it really is beautiful!! 🌿😊 If you need someone to mow the lawn or help with general maintenance of your fine marijuana I'm ya man 😄 One day I hope to be doing the same thing....

@Bushbaby808, hehe... I'm retired now... so I have lot of extra time on my hands for yard maintenance these days... throw in a pandemic... and viola... all dressed up with nowhere to go. This is my first full summer in retirement so I planted a lotta non-cannabis things this year... things you can eat... raspberries, blackberries, some kiwis, tomatoes, peppers. When I bought this tiny house about 20 years ago it was with an eye for now. Didn't know I'd be growing cannabis _legally_ in my yard (not that that would've stopped me), but growing in this yard is something I'd always planned for. Right down to the shed which holds my grow tent. My personal paradise. This is now my 3rd summer of legal growing outdoors. We learn a little every year. This White Widow is trying to outrace my Jack Herer in vertical growth. Go baby go.... 😎
