Zip

I would say that the two 4 gallon buckets I put in a few weeks ago look to be at about the 2 or 3 weeks stage if they were indoors. Other than those everything coming along just slowly.

Yesterday and today were a bit hotter than the normal around my parts. But before that it has been very very nice. Highs around mid 70s and lows around low 60s. According to google's weather it's supposed to be warm like it is now through Monday, but after that it's claiming that there will be a huge drop in temps, highs and lows, of about 20 degrees. It was predicting mid 60's for highs so I'll see. I think that the mini heat wave we are getting now is because of Hurricane Gustav.

I'm sure that anyone who has had to cut down a full grown female in bloom knows the pain. Oh well, had to do it, can't have a 6 foot, deep green plant sticking out like a sore thumb for anyone to spot.

Also, anyone else have to change their shorts after crop dusters fly over?

Rain is a good thing. >2 inches and a few days of wind

Why not just whack her in half? Then she would only be 3 foot and you could still salvage something, or hell tie her down with a stake.

i really wish i could afford a digital camera dangit. i usually visit grow at night an my cell cam dont take pix at night worth a beans lol.

No I have been growing this line for a year indoors but when spring came I took some and put them outside. I just cut down and hung all of those so check out my other thread soon for updates.

More rain last night too.

After a few week cool down and some rain, now were looking at the next few weeks of 50/80 degree days. I would say that is about perfect. Just hope it's enough.

 

[zipflip]

weather here is bout the same as urs and im hopin its enough too.
love the photo edit job... LOL
all my plants have stayed pretty much all shorter than my heads height. its for the better tho. more stealth tho. but only 3 of mine are actually budding along real nice. but from the looks of the leaves on them i can say definately they indica or indica dom. but the others i know are all sativa dom. as the barely budding yet. they just showin hairs really and just gettin denser more congested tops wit leaves is bout all. i think i might be just makin some cheap hash out them come harvest if they don't produce any real sizeable yeild tho.
ya ever figure out the purpling of ya lil buds in them one pix? mine are doin the same thing and was jus curious

I never did figure out where the purple hue came from. The plants are looking great. I hear you on the hash part. When I saw them triching up I was thinking that it wasn't a total loss.
From what weather.com is showing it looks like the next week will be great. These last few days have been just wonderful. Imagine an entire summer in these parts with 50/83 days with rain once or twice a week.
Anyway after that it looks like it will be getting chilly. I will be keeping a close eye on the lows and it looks like around the first of Oct it will be getting into the danger zone. I think I want to put my greenhouse over 2 of the biggest closest ones and build 2 makeshift greenhouses for my 2 three footers.
I'm thinking the greenhouses will be absolutely necessary to get a finished product.
