Damn I knew something was up, been growing GTA for 13 years never had an issue, I thought it was my neighborhood growing hermies. Then I suspected government crop dusting pollen just to f growers and black market field grows. I guess planting hemp does that for them....bullshit I say.
Lol, the only branch of the government competent enough to do that is the military, and they don't really care about weed.
It would be the LPs. Never underestimate corporate greed.

edit:nice plants
 
Yeah my 3 personal outdoor plants got pollinated by hemp. Harvested 2 out of 3 plants already. It's week 8 for me. I'm growing Cherry Pie. It early flowered for me. The stretch began near the end of July / start of August. Not too many seeds from this hemp pollination. Most are poppy seed size with a few here and there fully developed. Since 2 of 3 plants are harvested and are being dried and cured I decided the defoliate in late flower (yes I know that's a no-no) but my plant has already been pollinated so it won't hermi. the shock didn't kill it and now it looks like a Monkey Puzzle tree if anybody knows what they are.... bottom line I'm using this plant as a "EXPERIMENT" and I'm gonna let her go until Thanksgiving (Week 10) or maybe Halloween (Week 12) ... the branches have no fan leaves just sugar leaves so it may be more resistant to PM and bud rot since every branch/nug gets full 360° airation and sun when I spin the pot.

That’s an early harvest...no? I’ve harvesred one of mine the other day but it was flowering July 20. Others that started aug 15th will stay out to at least the 3rd week of October...

Saw your post and checked the forecast. It’s suppose to rain all week til Friday. I think I’m going to tarp my plants, it’s too close to harvest.

Yeah the forecast for next week definitely took a turn for the worse. Built a redneck greenhouse the other week but took it down last Saturday because of high winds this week. Rained early yesterday morning and on one of my plants the buds were falling over on each other. Put the tarp back up yesterday morning winds be damned. And croptober paranoia is coming on strong. Put the tent up last night for a little backyard camping lol16AF419C-ED4D-43AB-95BC-21FD300CF332.jpegyesterday morning after the sun came up 32BFAF58-90F2-4787-AE64-CF5763E56DB0.jpegand this morning seems to look a little better.

Wow amazing job! That’s going to be quite a yield.

It looks like you’ll be going deep into October this year.

Yeah but man have we been blessed with one of the best September’s in along time. Normally I would be chopping right now because of all the rain we usually get

Yeah I still have 3 weeks for 2 plants and hopefully I can get another 4-5 weeks for 2 others..... fingers crossed! My DIY hoop house should give me an extra week or 2. Haven’t had to worry about rain or wind at all

2 plants in week 6+
1 plant in week 5
1 plant in week 4

Hoop house will get me through a few frosts and I’m stretching for 2nd week of November on 2 plants.... not worth cutting early because of a few days of rain imo... cover them up DIY style and try to let them finish. During the day i can be 5-10 Celsius warmer inside and 2-4 C through the night.

Looking good man yeah I am getting daytime highs of +30c in the redneck greenhouse and cause the sides are mainly open the rh goes down to high 30's in the daytime. Still 99% in the morning though but no dew on the plants

Yeah been fighting it for a while. Been spot spraying leaves with a mix of silicate water and a little dish soap which has a really high ph. It's a yearly problem in my garden so I got some actinovate for next year. I bought some safers defender but not really keen on spraying sulphur on my buds that are so close to harvest. Going to do the Jorge Cervaintas H2O2 wash at the end of the season.
