We're finally back home, and the Balcony Jungle has definitely grown while we were away. 😅🌿
The first Appalachian Kush is now starting to form its flowers, so it looks like flowering is officially underway.
The plants have also reached a size where their large amount of foliage acts almost like a sail in the wind. With the strong and frequent winds we get up here, the little 11 L pots have started getting blown over.
For now, I've secured the pots with some Paracord as a simple temporary solution. 💨😅
I also removed some foliage and a few of the lower branches, mainly to make watering and working around the plants a little easier.
The Appalachian Kush plants are currently the biggest of the bunch, but there isn't a huge difference in size between the strains.
Even the Green Poison, which fell behind earlier in the grow, has managed to catch up quite nicely. 🌱💚
The Golosa is still showing its unusual growth pattern as well. Its thick but flat main stem has now split at the top, forming two main tops instead of one. 👀🌱
It's definitely starting to look like a proper Balcony Jungle now. ☀️🌿
The tomatoes have been keeping us busy as well.
We've already been harvesting them gradually for quite some time and have enjoyed several kilos of homegrown tomatoes so far. 🍅😋
They are honestly incredibly delicious, and the yellow variety has become our clear favourite.
Definitely one of the highlights of this year's Balcony Jungle. ☀️🍅🌱
