Northern Climate - Outdoor Greenhouse

Week 22 - Oct 4 2020 Hello fellow growers I am truly amazed at how quickly the garden is changing. Everyday the garden takes on a new appearance, the colder temps are really starting to bring out the purple colors. Most notably in the Peyote Gorilla and the Sundae Punch ( both will be coming down this week). I am suspending roughly 2 hrs a day in the garden pulling off yellow leaves and supporting branches that are starting to give way to the weight of the buds. As you can see I have harvested 2 of these fine ladies so far (Kali Mist and Skywalker) this has allowed me a little better access so I can actually get to the Grapefruit in the back corner. I am monitoring the trichomes daily and at this point I have plans to trim 2 (Peyote & Sundae) this week, then 4 more (Cherries, Grapefruit, GDP) will be coming down just after Canadian Thanksgiving. This will leave the Dr. And the Duck. Not sure what is going on with the Duck? She is not looking like I expected her too. Maybe this is due to the fact that she was left in a small pot too long which has obviously stunted her growth, but her flowers are vibrant green, with no hairs and a very modest amount of Trichomes. All the research i have done on her tells me she should have bright bright purple nugs, but I am not seeing any signs of that. The Dr. Is coming along nicely, she is really starting to flower and I think she will offer some big yields. She still has a few more weeks of flower before she will be ready. I am going to leave the Duck going with her to see how she turns out. Plans for this week are to continue to stay on top of yellowing leaves and to harvest the Peyote and the Sundae. The family is headed away this weekend for one last camping trip of the season to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving (going to attempt to smoke a bird in my Bradley Smoker, wish me luck!!) We are only about 30 - 40 minutes from home, so either my son or I will be making trips home to keep an eye on the garden while we are away. I am happy to report that the “Farmhand” is doing much better, there is still some discomfort but she is up on her feet and back to work this week. Hopefully we will see her around for the next harvest. In the mean time we edited and posted a few more pics from our Sept Camping trip!!! Enjoy!! I hope everyone is having some good harvests!!!
