The SR-71 is the last to start flowering in my garden. You have plenty of time with her.

Treeman never tops, I'm a super cropper. Hurts me to remove that new growth. I stop super cropping on Aug 1st. I just pinch and bend those tops over to promote more growth underneath. Jan 4th to you Aussies is equal to our July 4th here in the states. I feed for 6-7 weeks starting July 1st with the Maxsea 16-16-16 before I start seeing a real stretch/flowers. I keep on the 16-16-16 until the stretch is over (mid to late August, mid to late February for you Aussies), then I start on the Maxsea 3-20-20 to promote the flower growth.

Mid to late feb is when my plants have already been flowering for 2-4 weeks
Im hitting with full strength maxsea veg from tomorrow every 6 days till i see the stretch is over :)

Yep i learnt that from you before im going to keep topping her as much and as far as i can ...im also going to dig her into a hole with the fabric pot and put extra soil under and around her tomorrow.
5 gallons (18 litres) of 3 tablespoons (42 grams ) is the feeding regime for now but how often should i feed at this rate ?
Is once every 5th day to much ?

I think that's a bit much for a 15 gallon smart pot. I know your putting her into the ground, so start @ 2 tablespoons to 2 gallons of water, then up that amount 50% in 2-3 weeks (3 TBS to 3 gallons of water) then up it again to 4TBS/4gallon of water another 2-3 weeks after that. Stay @ 4TBS until ready to start with the 3-20-20 (bloom food).

Does anyone notice how good their girls look after a few days rain/ cool weather?
We've had 4 days cloudy light rain here and my plants look amazing. The colors beautiful, they seem to have grown a lot
And just look perfect.
The 3 week heat wave just stopped them in their tracks and this change has just supercharged them.
I'm not sure if it's the new pots, fresh soil, rain or a combination of all the above but
Wow what a difference.

Do you guys see that much difference with fabrics?
I am asking my girl at the garden shop to order me 25 x 25gal square fabric pots similar to smart pots

ive grown in pots for years and fabric last year and this and I love the fabric..gotta water more but if someones always home to do it its really good is my opinion only
 
MUCH better. Order you some blue Walmart shopping bags online and get 7.5 gallons of cheap, long handled ghetto ingenuity. Check this little system out.
