Another Ohio Grow

Man guy's carrying all this water is starting to suck balls. I gotta water everyday for at least four hours a day. Carrying two 5 gallon buckets and my partner carrying two. The only plants that dont seem to be able to take the heatwave are the NL's. They are wilted everytime i see them. I just got off of the phone with dr. greenthumb and next year hopefully i wont have to deal with this heatwave i will already be done. I like the dr. he seems like a honest player and very upfront. I even like his feeding methods he suggested fits right in with what i like to do.

Stay hydrated out there fella's.....tristynhawk

i have to say i picked a good strain for this year we are having. The kaya gold from nirvana is thriving in these extreme weather we been having. I just hope im happy with bud's. I cant seem to find any pics of the kaya's buds that satisfy me. They are all lanky looking with no real mass. Im hoping they at least get soda can size.

am i really the third person in this thread that planned to breed Nirvana's Short Rider but they never auto'd?
DARN. i guess thats what i get for 30 bucks, i also have quite a few Swiss Cheese plants outdoor and a few indoor.
outdoor they are doing stellar, big and vigorous, loves nutrients, but indoor one pheno hermied, but the other one is fine and growing immensly fat!
what is your take on Swiss Cheese? im just kinda stoked to find another Swiss Cheese grow. any new pics?
moving water is definetly a bitch, we use a really long hose, and then 5 gallon blue water jugs. on a sunny day we maxed out at 50gallons.
we are very lucky to live in a rural location, and dont have to hide things too much.

mind if i ask what region your in? when do your plants normally start to flower?

things look good!

Im in the the north east usa. Ohio. Most of my plants are flowering my aurora's are 2 weeks into budding maybe three on one of em. The kaya's are starting this week i noticed. Still no sign of flowering on the swiss she's got hair but she's had that for 3 weeks now just letting me no she's a girl. I lost a few of the swiss cheese to bug's and deer but they are big eaters i cant seem to give this one enough food and now she's looking like she might be deficient of something. here's a few pics of some swiss i don't gotta pics of the swiss i just picked a few plants from the beginning to take pictures with and have stuck with them.

sounds good, im just curious because here on vancouver island budding cant start early enough!
we get massive mold issues during september, which is why i wanted to try Nirvana's Short Rider, but they kinda didnt auto yet, and now im more interested in the Iranian then ever!
very jelous of your flowers thanks for the info.

ps.
i found Swiss Cheese loves to be LST'd.

Don't know why skit but i cant see the pic?

what do u use to deter deer

not sure how to post pics here. sorry

@ clam digger when i contacted nirvana they replaced seeds. And told me that it was their first compliant this year about them not flowering properly.

Liquid fence. now that they are outside of the actual fence. I wasn't thinking of my plants out growing their fence's and hadn't been applying it as i shoulda been, hence i lost a few before i realized it. Didn't really lose them they just got ate up they are coming back but coulda been gaints. My brain fart for the year i guess.

heeard of using irish spring soap shavings too works

I've heard soap draws in rats. And people say they will eat your stalks. I dunno though but i did have a NL out in the middle of a field growing all day sun fenced up real good tied down growing big and something came in and stripped my stalk and gnawed it to hell. i assumed it was a rat. Cause no other animals going to get through my fence.

So the group by the name of "NORML" has a petition going on for HR 2306 that will put an end to the Prohibition of marijuana. They are only 2k votes away and can use all the help they can get. I ask anyone here that wants weed to have a chance to be legal to vote.

If so how many hours of sunlight do they get ?

i think the hand cart is there to move them, personally i move my backyard plants about twice a day, by hand, to give them more sun.

maybe that is the south side of his house, and its a cloudy day?
