Plants grew too tall!!! Help a brotha out

I supercrop whenever I need to even well into flower. I've been doing it for years. From my experience the plant does just fine. In fact I've literally had to bend stalks that were so hard that they literally split. Plant didn't miss a beat and kept right on flowering. Crunch the stem, bend it over, and move on. Cannabis isn't the fragile plant that requires special attention as some seem to think. I beat the crap out of my plants when I need to. They take it just fine.


What’s what 1 plant yielding you?

Interesting,

ya I kind of half ass grow, I fully never researched how to grow I kind of watched a YouTube video here and there and do my own thing, when it comes to nutes I strictly use Alaska Fish Shit from Home Depot, I use it from start to finish , it’s what I had in the garage , and it’s not like it doesn’t work, I like it
I have friends that grow outdoors. That Alaska Fish is all they use. They grow tree's of pure dank weed. Well as long as they harvest before bud rot can set in. Unfortunately last year was pure hell here in the Pacific Northwest for bud rot. I keep a jug of Alaska Fish and their Morebloom to use outdoors. In fact I used it on some outdoor grown plants last year. They did just fine other than all the leaves going yellow from being in too small of pots and getting watered straight from the hose for most of the summer. I was basically just watering them with a hose until water was pouring out the pots. As much as some say yellowing leaves is normal "they call it the fade" I disagree. These plants were severely underfed which is why the leaves are yellow.

That plant was a long flowering sativa. I flowered it for 20 months although it could have gone longer. I ended up with 5 ounces of dried bud. The buds look big but being a pure sativa they were more fluffy than dense. Damn good smoke though and I'm glad I grew it. You can't get a really good sativa unless you grow it yourself.

Yes it definitely tested my patience. It wouldn't stop flowering. I had to change the light cycle to 10/14 and even then it just kept putting out new pistils. It could have gone longer but I was having a hard time keeping it alive and healthy. I let it get too big and I waited too long to transplant it and when I did the container wasn't big enough.

This was it before I transplanted. It was about six feet tall in a 1.5 liter pot.

Hey man do you have issues with nitrogen mid to late flower with that N %? Have got seaweed and fish liquid thats 5 3 2, real keen to give it a crack but was wondering about about nute burn and if thats enough P and K throughout? Cheers

Alaska Fish also has a product called MorBloom which is 0-10-10. Should be plenty of P & K in that. It's phosphoric acid, muriate of potash and fish emulsion. I think I'm going to do an outdoor plant this year and feed only Alaska Fish and Alaska MorBloom.

My understanding is some equatorial sativas were more like perennials. You just chopped a branch as you needed it and it continued to grow for years. I can't say that I know that is generally true but back in the 60's a friend's older brother had his trained along his block wall behind his house (also behind a shed) and that plant was there for a couple years.

I’m on Home Depot looking at the fertilizer and I see the costumer review photos on their website lmao

You gotta love the people that read through your comment looking for a grammatical or spelling error to try to prove their point about something completely unrelated lol
Dude basically called me and anybody else not agreeing with him a retard. Pissed me off seeing as I can't physically show him up being online, I retaliated. I was proving a point, somebody not capable of good grammar calling out somebody else is hilarious.

I have no love for your ass, either.

Again your peer reviewed source or it's just another difference of opinion based on anecdotal experience. This is on my table tonight. They are almost at chop. She suffered no ill effect and zero set back.

Just another opinion for the OP to consider.

Bodhi Space Monkey. She smokes nicely too. I have a green pheno of her on the table as well. She's not as pretty. I need to pop the rest of those beans and run an open pollination table of her. I have a BlueBerry Hashplant that's almost as pretty but not quite as large and a green pheno of her as well LOL

Thank you

Lol close , Cure leaf NJ Medical, I could have sworn it was sure it was Wedding cake but that’s a indica hybrid so honestly I got no clue

Looks fire tho, hopefully this will help me offset the $480 I spend an ounce for this
