We are in Tassie, we get very long summer days and very short winter days.

"On December 22 this year, the longest day of the year and summer solstice, the total time between sunrise and sunset in Hobart is 15 hours and 21 minutes. "
Hobart is also home to the longest period of twilight over summer.

"If you include the time between the very first little glow in the morning and then very last glow of twilight at night, when we have our longest day that period runs for 19 hours and 53 minutes," Mr George said.

"We only get a few hours of complete darkness at the latitude of Hobart.
For that very reason, some of Australia's biggest hop farms are in Tassie & around Myrtleford in Vic.

Funnily enough, there's also a lot of tobacco farms & weed grown around Myrtleford - go figure!

Have you been spraying them with anything
No. This has only appeared in the past day (or else I missed it before now).

My learning-curve for next year with this is to spray with Potassium Silicate more often ('also helps with bug resistance & increases overall strength of the plants).

That sucks. Lookin promising otherwise.
Yeah, they're probably about 3-4 weeks from chop at most (unless I get nervous about weather).

Edit: I was hoping to be able to hold-out for an abundance of amber trich's, but this may force my hand otherwise.

Maybe just harvest your big buds and let the rest grow out, weather permitting of course

Seed run nearly finished outside on this revegged clone of Katsu's Key Lime Kush pollen chucked by an Ethos WC x Temple Kush:

An Ethos Wedding Cake x Temple Kush F3 clone, this clone spent a week in the green bin in the dark, I just threw it in the dirt and it went to flower. I see it as an audition plant, hopefully the flower is good and strong, coz I have a 3 more cuts of it going inside

Been taking my time with these clones, twisting, clipping and tying for the last 22 days. If I can't get 12+ main colas out of each one or I don't bother. 4-6oz per clone is the sweet spot. Any less and I may as well not bother.

Strains are cuts from a mate - Caveman's Modern Warfare, Error 101
Ethos - Wedding Cake x Temple Kush F3 - 3 of them, they're so green and I can't feed them as hot as the other 2 or they stop growing and the leaves start doing barrel rolls
