Good morning everyone. Outside plants made it thru their second night of extreme wind and cooler temps. I staked them up with a bamboo stick yesterday as the wind has been something else lately for some reason. I need to make a dirt/perlite run for their transplant this weekend. Trimmed a plant that was ready yesterday. Got a better yield than I thought I would. Have three more plants to check today for done-ness. Hope they are ready soon as I’m ready to fill the tent up again with a better grow. Hope everyone has a sweet day 💕

94 here today with wind gusts up to 40 mph

plants will stay outdoors unless the wind gets to brutal

but eventually they will have to stay outside and deal with it , sooner or later

plants are looking good!

do you plan on stripping off those lower leaves and branches ?…..bury them a little deeper?…

that is my plan….I’ve already stripped some lower fan leaves and I usually pinch off all the flowers on several lower branches but leave the fan leaves…

this helps eliminate popcorn buds and directs more growth to the upper branches and flowers

Looking nice they love the fresh air. May I ask what soil you use SubG? Sound like you'll be busy. Thank for the sweetness.
 
44F @ 84 % RH, partially cloudy and predicted to reach 56F.

Breakfast out at a Cordon Blu chef's house this morning to act as his "guinea pig", whatever that means....................... Hee, hee, hee, no disappointments to date....

Down to about a half a dozen bees still in shock and hanging on the outside of the swarm box, with the rest of them busily setting up housekeeping in their new digs.

I discovered an issue with vaping cannabis acetates that is similar to the recent issue with vaping Vitamin E acetate, in that they both produce Ketene, a poisonous gas.

Yes big, I’m planning on cloning those nice ones on the bottom for whom ever may want them (maybe be doing this today) then yes planting them deeper than they are now kinda like I do my tomatoes to shorten them up a bit. How much space should I leave between the ground and the first node? Two of the tall plants the Josie and the Dosidos have a good bit on the bottom to be buried maybe 6-8”. They have a very strong trunk and I think they are the ones going in the ground. The other two will go into 25 gallon pots on my deck and I also plan on sinking them a bit lower in the dirt.

how much space?

whatever you are comfortable with….from extreme lolipopping to bushy hippie plants , I try to find a happy medium and of course a lot depends on the plant , how it grows , if it is more uniform like an Xmas tree or is it viney and flops all over , a lot of variables to consider

my favorite look is a plant well trimmed of fan leaves , inner bud site aka popcorn buds all pinched off , lollipopped but not extreme , I like the air to flow through the plant if that makes sense

but yeah , I will bury my plants a foot deep and leave them clear for another foot , of course most of my outdoor plants are 6’ or taller so they get a good haircut

Yes I plan to top them too I fimmed the two lanky ones to get a few more bud sites which worked out beautiful but don’t really want them to get more than 5-6’ High. How big around do they get as I’m planting them on both sides of my deck stairs and would like to keep them on their side of the rail.
