Hey man, glade to see things still going wellish for ya. Over in the Asheville region its been a very rainy summer, made it very easy to tend to plants. Infact I planted couple seedlings as a test. Gave them some cheap time release ferts and that was it. Nothing for insects, no water, etc, up until a couple days ago when I checked and saw the 3 I planted all went male. Anyway just posting this because I thought it was cool the plants were able to get this big with absolutely no tending by anyone. I really think by time they finished in a few months they would of been monsters as they really were taking off since at that size they can really start cranking out energy. Test btw was simply because I haven't grown in a couple years and dont plan on it but would like to put a couple hundred seedlings around town just for the hell of it. Be fun to see what happens



Oh btw thats a much larger and taller door then a normal one, and thats my shoe at the bottom. Meant to hold it up but also works as shitty size reference.

Im in the 828 , i believe asheville is 828 also , i was just up their yesterday as a matter of fact going down biltmore ave , right down from mission hosp.

I was looking for this hydro store that was supposed to be right around their somewhere , off one of the side roads by the tracks where hardees and long john silvers is at ( but i could not find it :( )

Their has been alot of rain , i got 3 seeds germin right now so i can grow some minis lol

Where getting 13.8 hrs of daylight now so they should grow similar to an indoor 12/12 from seed grow , but only bigger since its under the sun and not an artificial light

Maybe some little 4 footers if im lucky

In asheville I use Fifth Season Hydro. It's off of Cox street in the downtown region. Coming from Patton thru downtown it's Cox, then Bank St on the left bout half a mile down. I've never seen the one your talking about, but I've also never looked.

Yeah though man does suck none were female. All were about exactly same size and just about to cross 8'. Which though isn't super tall, is impressive because probably 2 weeks before it was mybe 5'6". Would of enjoyed seeing their final sizes but it was on my property so not worth risking just to see that

Edit: Oh and yeah were 828 also, and I know it covers out to at least Haywood county also such as Waynesville and Canton.

When you come by next time you should also check out Fifth season. It's not the largest operation but a nice store none the less. A couple months ago they had a raffle going on for a bunch of prizes, as well as venders such as sunleaves and smart pot there giving out samples and information. All the while they had a band playing and were serving free popcorn and home brew beer. Glade to know theres another store to check into now though. Always nice to have a bigger selection and large pool of prices to pick from, but when I looked a few years ago I could only find Fifth Season plus some nursery type stores.

Damn im tired of these high ass temps ,

The heat is really doing a number on my plants , which i only have 4 left

The 2 clones i had are gone , a rabbit ate one and the heat is just wilting the other away

I really hope they survive this heat , my N.l that was nice and busy just looks sickly now ,

It has dead branches on the inside and the bottom both from damage from that rabbit and the heat ,

I got a lot of leaves that are just starting to dry out and crisp and flake off from the heat

well here are a few pics , their not the best though sorry

Holy shit goten. Those things are lookin good. You're not lyin about the heat. NC is burning up along with the rest of the East. Animals are annoying eating on your plants but you've gotta understand they're just doing what animals do. Sure there's tons of other things they could be eating but Marijuana is probably a tasty treat for them. Slaughter a deer and drip its blood around your grow, it'll work it's just sick. :D

The heat has been taking its toll on them plus this damn rabbit thats been eating on my shit , but rabbits are only so tall so at least their not munching on my bigger branches

I got a good down pour sunday night from a storm , so its been a couple of days now since they had a drink , so im probably gonna go out later and water them

you guys think it's too late to mulch with composted cow manure, or you think it would be a waste.

I dont know to much about adding mulch ,

Iv been told that mulch is not good for it , Rather if its true or not i dont know ,

i was told to use silica to help

hey how did u get them to flower so early
Click to expand...
Its the daylight hours here ,

Most outdoor plants can start flowering with 14hrs of daylight , mine started flowering at 14.2 hours of daylight

Put your lat info in this graph and the day , move the courser to adjust the lat , and the day , it will tell you how many daylight hours your getting , and even show you when the days lessen

http://astro.unl.edu/classaction/animations/coordsmotion/daylighthoursexplorer.html

If your around 14hrs then your outdoor plants should start flowering anytime
