I'm more looking for clones than seeds as I don't like mucking around with sexing, but I can't have a indoor setup myself ATM so have to rely on a different source., and I will be using herbies this year to get some autoflowerinh seeds so I can have some pretty harvest buds haha

Took the pic about a week ago. Yeah I thought it was flowering a bit late. No real buds formed yet but throwing white pistils. This is my first grow and I've been sorta slack with nutes and watering so I'm pretty happy how she's turned out with a bit of rookie LST. Yeah I've had !ixed feedback on yeild from 1oz to 1LB just gonna have to wait and see I guess!
Everyones seem to be flowering late this season most of mine only started a week and a half ago. Still got nice weather to

I wish I had put my plantr out in the open like yours. I tried using blackberry as security but it ended up growing heaps and blocking a couple hours direct sunlight. Hopefully she's still getting enough to produce me a solid yeild!,

I didn't get round to doing outdoors. I'm an idiot because i drove round the waitakere ranges every week for a joint.

It's that procrastination. Procrastinated until there was no more time left...

Next closet harvest should put out just under a pound i'd say. The things i could do with a spare room...

A fair few kiwis on this thread which is good :) Sucks you cant do yourself an outdoor grow but at least you got your indoors bro. Hmm auto pot looks interesting let us know how it goes, do you just add nutrients to the water?

I wouldn't bother with those myself, and i definitely wouldn't let nutrient water sit in the rez for more than a week. You water would look like hell in a month in our heat.

All you need is a bucket, netpot, clay pebbles, (or rocks. i've done it), an airpump, and an airstone, to get a fully functional hydro bucket.

yeah as far as ive seen thats how it works but it waters on a make shift ballcock system as the plant feeds the water level drops it brings it back up like a farm trough id have to have a closer look at how hes set his water to circulate im pretty sure hes got his bubbler in his res to stop it from going stagnet tho

really nice colours bro!!!

Yip my first year growing in blackberry bushes. Learnt a few things like, good proterction from critters but a breeding ground for vine hoppers. They grow really quick too and can overgrow plants if not kept under control. Blackberry patches are labour intensive.

Im trying for a late batch of mini clones and using a few of these for a feminized seed run (colloidal silver + 6-7 weeks = next years seeds!) These strains are blue cheese, money maker and a local strain, hopefully i can get a cut of my pineapple chunk too.

Lost a few small patches to rippers (including the one with the bees), lost one to probably possum(s) and have been enduring one the driest periods Ive seen around here. Not letting it get to me, keep moving forward, learning from every experience, good or bad.

yeah definitely, not sure if it they were relocated of just some kid smoking plants only a couple of weeks into flower.

Got a few other small-medium plants out and about, no massive plants or patches. Will get some pics when flowers are looking photo worthy, but probably wont be going to most until harvest now, early next month id say. :weed:

Got my fem seed project to focus on til then. Just transplanted newly rooted cuts and will let them settle and veg in for a couple weeks before putting them out to flower ready to be sprayed with CS and hopefully make myself next years seed for my out projects, of which i hope there will be many :bigjoint:

Be cool and stay safe...

Took a bud off the 10 ft Malawi mix plant last night as I can't use lights to check plants, my cotton candy is even heavier in bud so think I'll harvest that next weekend for some early smoke, im never growing in maze again they USUALLY harvest late April this stuff but you never know and it's driving me nuts when ever I see a tractor driving towards it or other stuff near being harvested, fingers crossed.
