They do not look overly bushy. I defoliate when ever I see a leaf that is in the way of a bud site and then in flower I prune ALOT of leaves but that is just me. I do not see a reason for day marker of 21 to do anything other then what the plant seems to be needing. They look healthy too me.

I grew the Maui W two years ago outside. I topped them multiple times and they bushed out nice. They should do well in your big pots.

Any thoughts about planting directly into the ground in lieu of the 30 gal. monster pots? I used 25gal ONCE, they were just too heavy to do anything with. Planting in the directly into the soil has some drawbacks as well. With all of the rain we got in the N.E. last year I had 4 plants that just...

The bamboo should work. I use a couple of sets of scaffolding for my outdoor grow. Works great. This Purple Haze was over 10' last year.

How are you determining sex at this early stage?

I was thinking about buying the ac infinity self watering bases for when I am gone for over a week but hand watering at other times. Would that work? Use the bases for only water and hand feed with nutes?

I moved to Australia for 18 months and could not get Copenhagen. I substituted two coffee beans as a dip and I have to tell you it works. I started back up after I came back but then quit again a couple of years ago. I dip once in a while now, once in six months. I will put in a couple of coffee...

For some reason I thought you were by me in NY. I have not heard of any kind of raid on any home grows on the East Coast. I am sure that my UPS and USPS drivers know that I am a grower during flower because my garden gets ripe. No neighbors to speak of though.

what state?

I am going to jamaica in a couple of weeks. I am going to try and go on a cannabis farm tour and buy some seeds to bring home.

I am switching from fox farm to Jacks classic nutes for this years outdoor grow. It is a lot less expensive and others on this forum seem to be doing excellent with it.
