Taken today most of the bud sights are this developed. Ottawa Area. Do outdoor plants stretch much compared to indoor once they hit flower?

Cheers

What strain is that? Looks bad ass for 45 days. What kind of light are you using? Some of those colas are immense for 45 days!

@65days , checked trichomes & calyxs today, looking like a couple more weeks , still pumping out lots of clears, and making more weight, got to spend some time and get more support.
The back corner plant is the most stardawg leaning and is starting to go purple (looking to be the best smoke) buds in forground are @6weeks.

That's fuckin' crazy. Nice job. Mind if I ask what yield you will pull this round? looks like 2lbs easy

Tomato cages are easier than stakes IMO

There is 3 levels of support, didn’t expect 6’ plants when I flipped . Going to add another level soon.
These blow Tcages out of the water. The stakes are damage prevention , there’s colas over 2’ long .
But I do agree.

With it being made out of condensate pipe/fittings was the price to make it pretty reasonable ?

I guess that depends on what’s reasonable
If you figure in the return, YES
About 2.5 10’ pvc pipes
Self tapping screws
Under 50 per. They will last forever.
Sucks building 20+ of them tho.

Ya that will work but kinda pricey. Nice thing though is that you can build them up as the plant grows...just dont glue the tees for the uprights and switch to longer ones.

They work so well, I would still do it if it was double that cost, makes training a lot easier, which improved quality n yields
My pics speak for themselves.

Did you pick up the parts from a wholesale supply spot like noble or from a home depot type of store ?

Just Home Depot
If you shopped around I’m sure you can save, sometimes I’m willing to pay for convenience
