The weather here has been very wet and humid for the last 2 weeks, raining nearly every day. Luckily this girl isn't too far into flowering so as yet no signs of mould or rot. Buds are forming up nicely, plenty of trichomes and a very nice smell.
@Shooey, yeah ok. For me it's just the flexibility of being able to move them around if need be and utilizing my space, only got so much room in the ground. Would grow them all in the ground if I could, definitely get bigger plants and better moisture efficiency π
Was wondering how these were going mate,,,
How awesome to see a plant in full flight outdoors.
Itβs flying mate, canβt even see the house behind anymore! Beautiful.
I bet your getting a bit nervous about the trim job coming up!!
You may need to hire some helpπ
@Shooey, yeah it does hurt but not much you can do hey. I'm about 600k S from you. I did see that today as well, looks like more rain coming, especially for you. I've been defoliating like mad today to try and help combat it. Yeah the joys of outdoor, love it though. Thanks mate good luck to you π²ππ
@Hemp4humanity, geez thats a shame about the rot mate. Its a real risk with the early finishing strains for sure. 5 oz!! Man that hurts. Yes mate i am copping it a bit too. Im in AUS, on the GC if that is enough of a hint there! I notice today a new cyclone formed up north so looks like we could be in for another spell of wet weather. I love the natural outdoor grow but it comes with its challenges for sure mate. All the best hempππ½
@Shooey, yeah it's going really well. I've been a bit slack with updating this diary. Yeah will definitely be a bit of trimming, I'll keep defoliating as it goes along which will help. Just glad it's still a bit off being ready, not sure how the weather has been where you are but we have been wet and humid for weeks. Bud rot has been a real problem on my earlier finishing plants, threw about 5oz in the compost today and maybe will have more tomorrow depending on how it goes. Anyway the sun is shining for now. Hope your grow is going well π²ππ
Unreal Hemp,, plants are looking just awesome mate and looks like the excitement is just beginning with a few flowers appearing!
Happy days, well done mate ππ»
@Shooey, thanks mate. The sun has finally made an appearance and the girls are loving it. Yeah they are all triggering into flowering now to varying degrees. Been able to get a sample of the terpene profile of some of the plants now from the big pistules at the branch nodes. This big dos si dos plant has the most amazing fruit bubblegum smell, really excited for whats to come. π²ππ
@TeamQuality420, thanks mate. I will have to update this diary, they are well into flowering. Looking really promising. They reveged in early summer and took off, the big one in the ground is now about 2.7m tall. Early indications on the terpenes is really nice,citrus fruit and bubblegum. Happy growing π²ππ
Wow, you've got some monsters in the backyard mate! Very nice. Looks like a great place for it too. I feel we may be in a similar area, except im in the city. Look forward to seeing those buds line up! βΊοΈπ±πΏ
@Shooey, thanks mate, yeah I'm lucky to have some room and privacy. Yeah all going well this year down here. Been a big turnaround to last summers record drought and heat, wont stop raining. Hopefully we will get some dryer weather around late flowering. Good luck with your growing π
@Hemp4humanity, If I hadn't done LST almost from the start by now I would be at least 1.5m tall, and I have a 6.5l pot. If you look like you're outdoors, I wouldn't be surprised if it reached 2 meters or more π
@PurpleWorship, thanks mate. They are having a bit of a veg growth spurt at the moment but I think in the next week or 2 they will start to properly flower especially as we have gone past the longest day now. The one in the ground is about 2m tall now.
