Hey all you Maxi users! Plants are starting their pre-flower and has me wondering at what point y’all make the Gro -> Bloom switch. First time using the Maxi line this season so not sure if a gradual transition is best. Stay elevated friends :peace:

I'm totally on bloom way before flower, but I'm indoors. You could transition or keep it simple and just switch.

Got out this morning and played 18 holes on a short course. First time playing in a week and a half. Man, it felt good, but I am beat. I think the sickness is finally on the way out. Gonna caddy for my brother tomorrow in his first big tournament. Can't wait!!20240720_101311.jpg

On the brink of seeing red tomatoes here. This is a month early for us so the jump-the-gun planting March 1 and the time in the greenhouse this Spring paid off. Everything was about 4-5 ft tall when they went out and they have wrapped the cages multiple times so far. TONS of blooms. Peppers are poppin' blooms and sprouting new growth like mad.

Wagons Ho... 300 onion sets. We planted every single one. LOL. Golf ball to tennis ball size so far.

Beans, peppers, beets, more onions, cucs, weed, spent broccoli, flowers...

The long term forecast just came out for Aug/Sept/Oct. Hot & dry. We will see how long we can push things come September...

With our heat it would be best if I could figure out how to put up some shade cloth. Once it gets really hot the tomatoes don't set on anymore.

This is 22% white...mostly for hail events but we also drop it on the days when it gets 90+ and the UV is HIGH. (fruit/produce can blister in the sun)
You would likely benefit from the same thing...as well as heat reduction mid-Summer...especially with a bit heavier/higher % cloth or an "aluminet" one. (we cover our dome GH with a 50% aluminet in Summer)
Ditto on the weed hoop. 22% white cloth. Since I have to use an 8 ft ladder and stand on the second rung down to affix it to the top poles...I tend to only raise it if there's a nice, long stint of sunshine coming. Otherwise...que' sera' sera'... better than hail damage from having it up and getting caught with the old (man) pants down or falling off the ladder doing the up/down thing far too much. Nothing seems to care/everything is rocking in both instances.
