Nice looking plants Angus!
Those should produce some seriously nice budz
Thanks ya'll. I've had some killer inspiration here.
Okay, I went for the big hike today to check on the rest of the ladies.
First thing is that I could not believe how much the surrounding foliage has grown in. There is no way in hell anyone or anything would walk into this brier patch without a good reason. All around it and on the way there were deer track everywhere, but they faded as I started to get close. I literally don't think deer can get to my pot. It's that thick.
First one I came to was a JTR. It, like all the others, was between knee and hip-height the last time I saw it. It now brushes my chin. Looks like a little dirt had been dug up around it by some critter. I kicked it back in and stomped it down.
The next was a lone JillyBean. She is also doing great. Bushy as can be...just really taking off. When I was taking her out I accidentally snapped the main stalk about 10in up. I hurriedly lashed it up to where it stood up straight, leaned it against some briers and left it. Glad to see it recuperated nicely. De facto supercropping
This one really surprised me. My only Quirkle girl. She was real beat up and a lot smaller than all the others. She's now the tallest out of the bunch. I'm 5'10" and she's a good 6-8"+ above the top of my head. I see her coming as I'm walking and stop in my tracks.
She's pretty much two main stalks. Very healthy looking and very sturdy.
The last one out here is another JTR. She was a sight! Smaller than the rest, only came up to about my chest, she was about half lying on the ground. She was topped on like the second or third node and the two main branches were standing tall but three or four 3-4' side branches apparently got too heavy and fell over. They were laying accross the ground and starting to grow back up. Here's one of the branches
And the whole plant.
I messed with this girl for a second trying to find a way to get her to stand up like a (wo)man. Usueless; gonna have to come back with support stakes. In these few seconds my hands got as sticky as...well...I can't think of anything that isn't dirty but they got super-sticky! I rubbed the main stalk between my fingers and took a smell. Lemon pledge! Strong lemon pledge, like sniffing it out of the bottle. I can tell this girl is going to give off some dank.
And I'll conclude this post with a pic of my beautiful agent orange boy.
Okay, I don't know about beautiful...
