Super awesome! :-)
Grown that large, how do you keep them from getting
root bound and stunted growth in those 5 gal pots?
I imagine they need water daily?
Please fill me in. 8)

Just a word on the rootbound issue. I have seen big plants that were root bound that were 10 times the size of others that weren't rootbound and were vigorous, both yielded about the same when put outside the same. If was as far ahead as you, I would put them into the ground or big pots, with a 1000 watt light on each, in a greenhouse. Of course you might get 20 lb plants that way. Gonna need scaffolding...

Thanks for droppin by.. Ya no lights outside for me.. But I have the hoop house rigged up for cover if I need it.. I may in about 30days. Once they have flowers...
I'm expecting these to reveg on me take what I can and let them go all summer for a full season...

The hoop house will more than likely be the trellis for them in July

IMHO they will be so far into flower that they will finish.

And your chick has bigger guns than you my friend. I wouldn't mess with her.:mrgreen:
She thanks you! She's a personal trainer...
And I'm definitely expecting to get some good noggers of these then let them reveg. We'll see if I can pull it off I'm pretty sure they give me good flowers.. Then revel and turn into MONSTER s and outgrow the hoop house. That's the plan. If they don't re veg I'll throw 20 3-4 footers in there
