Nor Cal backyard grow

[westcoastog]

2nd year backyard grow in Northern California. My two biggest girls, about 7 feet tall and 8-9ft wide each. Tied down and LST the whole way.

I learned a lot last year from all of you, Neem oil early to fend off aphids and have been using BT to stop the budworms from popping up. Really healthy plants this time.

Went with Maxsea products and added Flowergirl as a booster. Also have been adding molasses once a week and have definitely noticed the difference in bud size.

Let me know what you guys think! Also being that I’m in NorCal about how far out are we from harvest? (Still learning haha)

Very nice!

Thanks! Literally took notes all year last year to see what worked and what didn’t.

Very nice!! I think those of us in Norcal have 4-5 weeks left.

3 weeks of Nutes and then flush for 2 weeks sound about right?

I'm pretty much already done with nutes and going to let my plants use up their stored energy. But yea if you want to keep things green, switching to water only in a few weeks could be the move. I know some people feed until the end.

And Kudos for using the BT as a preventative. I learned the hard way in 2017. Doh

Noticed a huge difference this year. Last year I was plucking off caterpillars and brown buds every morning. So far so good!

Your plants look beautifully healthy . With regards to harvesting time in my experience ( outdoor zone 15 -16 northern Ca ) I use a jewelers loop to examine the coloration of the trichomes. When I see more than half with an amber coloration I select a branch to harvest . I am growing Blueberry muffin and in my most sunniest location on Sept 24 I harvested some branches . Other plants in somewhat less sunnier locations are still cloudy but not quite enough amber color . So my long winded answer is to check the trichome color because some plants will hit their peak at different times .
