I just have to make a thread with these pics. I am really proud of her. So I ask for some slack for jumping out of my grow thread. :)

I call her Proud Mary.

This weekend I will update this thread with my 5 other stalks. This one is the largest but not by much.

Anyway enjoy and don't forget to cut me some slack :)

Edit:

Look on the far side of the stalk. There is a huge branch there also. Pics do not do it justice. In 3D this this is truly massive.

I planted in the ground on May 24th. I used Fox Farms Grow Big for Veg. Fox Farms OF soil mixed with about 35% perlite.

Plants were healthy 1 foot tall when planted on May 24th.

As far as what I did? I will be the first to say that 75% of my grow is luck. I have grew indoors for about 5 years so I had a clue what I am doing. But when I planted these I had no clue they would grow this big. It just happend :)

So yah just fox farms trio pack and FF Soil. I adjust my Ph water to 6.5 every watering. I feed every other watering to FF feeding chart.

edit:

I feel I should add that the soil out side my 3x3x3 fox farm hole is really good soil. If I water the grass behind my plants and my garden. I will have hundreds of earth worms in minutes. There really is a lot. Anout 5 big one to a shovel full. I pretty sure that has a lot to do with it. where the 3 plants are planted there has been nothing there but grass and worms for 60 years.

The pic in my avatar is this same stalk.

Pretty simple with a lot of luck.

The other half. The plant is 9 feet wide and 9 feet tall today. Would be about a foot taller if not tied over when it got to the top of the first fence that is 7 feet tall.

I would be happy to hear what members think she will yield? She is bushy all the way around. 20 to 30 plus large colas on top. Have not even tried to count the branches on the sides. what she will give up is driving me crazy. Oh the wait. Go Proud Mary.



This pic is a 5 days old. she is even bigger now.

Fiddyone, gotta say you have some gorgeous ladies there, fine specimens indeed. I also share your appreciation of the structural beauty of the plants so post away knowing they are appreciated.

I know we touched on this briefly on another thread, potential yield that is, and I cannot make an educated guess since I've never harvested a monster... However, I will state the obvious that it will be epic for certain. Can't wait to hear how many ounces you get... 25, 30, 35. or? Damn, wish I'd used the good stuff this year to feed my wimpy grow.

So, whaddaya call that gate now? Looks like to portal to some kinda nirvana or something... lol

The gate is a problem and will only get worse. I will update the other 5 stalks tomorrow.
