well i figured i would go topdress and see what i could do to hurricane proof my ladies. Due to very limited ties to stake my plants up with, i only staked my Jack. The other two don't look to be as susceptible to breaking in the high winds, but the heaviness of each of the three main shoots made me want to atleast stake that one. I just cut my own stakes out of some smaller trees and staked the branches individually. My scheduled weekly feeding is on fridays, but with the upcoming 8 inches of rain we're supposed to get plus the rain tonight, i doubt if i'll get the chance before wed. The guano should atleast give them some nutrients with all the rain. The KK is flowering hard already and building resin on the leaves. It has a really nice sweet smell already. The QT and Jack are slowly starting to flower as well. The Jack is about 7' and the kandy is atleast 6'5". I have faith my ladies can handle Irene. Atleast its gonna be 60 MPH winds compared to NC and the lower eastern seaboard. I wish all of you getting hit by Irene good luck, and to your ladies, God Speed.
Pics: #1=KK, #2=QT, #3= QT leaf problem any ideas? minor yellowing and leaf drop towards the bottom of the plants and in the middle here and there. not nitrogen def. , #4+5= QT, #6= KK, #7= JH left/ kk right
Well i went out yesterday after the storm came through ( not much of a storm here), and everything was fine except for my KK which had blown over, but staked her back up and shes all good. Some Mother F*$&#ng animal keeps eating some lower fan leaves on my KK and some on the JH, and it took a whole branch off the KK. Today i went out to feed and the top of my LSD that was budding and building up resin has been bitten right off, but it was right there on the ground. The same thing with the branch that got chewed off the KK, the deer didn't even have the decency to eat it. I'm gonna put up some fishing line around my grow tomorrow so hopefully that will keep it, or them away. I pissed all over the place around my plants today, and rubbed my sweat on some leaves of surrounding plants and my plants, so hopefully that will work for tonight and maybe tomorrow. Everything else looks good and the JH and Qrazy train are starting to shoot pistils out everywhere, so thats good. The KK is budding hard probably 2 weeks ahead of the others, and starting to frost up nicely. smells very nice, a really sweet smell. split a gallon jug of Tiger bloom and big bloom with my buddy, so that should hold me over for a lil bit. Used my new oldschool Gerry hiking pack to carry water out today and it fit 3 gallon jugs easily inside, so the JH and KK are getting the 2.5 gal jugs and the QT is getting 3 gals. fed with tigerbloom, cal-mag and big bloom today. tiger @ 3tsp/gal and big bloom @4tsp/gal. pics are from yesterday. tried to get some buds shots, but my shitty cell camera couldn't focus right, so i just gave up.
Hey Farmer, things are looking great! you've got some nice looking ladies there! Bushy and tall, what a combo...
I think we're pretty close together location wise. I'm glad we both made it through Irene nicely. I actually had my ladies in pots so i lugged them about a mile and put them in the shed to ride out the storm. Ever try carrying a 5' MJ tree through thick underbrush gently...not recommended. But it was worth it.
Just wondering when you put your in the ground and when you're planning on harvesting? I'm kinda new to this and wanna get a locals take on the best time to put em in and chop em down.
+ rep playa!
im right there with you dude i carried 11 in 10 gallon pots 3/4 of a mile to save em, shortest one was 6 ft tall, it was not fun or easy and took almost 6 hrs hahaha
i put mine in the pots on june 1st
Saw first flowers august 15thish- 25thish
hoping to harvest by oct 20th
Right....not fun! I'm on the same timeline then. I'm not sure I'm as optimistic about Oct 20, but that would be awesome!
I was thinking my ladies were a little behind in flowering, 2-3 weeks now but it seems like that's kinda where every is at around here...

Was wondering what state your in bro, im currently growing out of southern maine and my plants are growing right along at roughly the same rate, no where near as big but that will come with expirence hahaha
