I cant put it in the ground due to issues of the apartment complex.. all the damn electric meters are in my yard!!! So i have to be able to move it every so often for the Edison guy to check the meters. What i am going to do is build a canopy over it. also i don't leave it in direct sunlight all day just in the morning facing east till about 12 then i move it to the west end of the yard for shade until night i think just (common sense) if i left it in direct desert sunlight all day it would look like oregano by 6 o'clock.

canopy will be great for it

you would be surprised man my neighbor has some in pots in direct sun they only wilt for about two or three hours each day, what your doing is much better i think my neighbor would be doing that if he wasnt so lazy =]

My soil mix is loam, potting mix, perlite, very light clay over a yard per plant of amended soil :) Ph is at 6.5 and they are not in pots. They are in ground lower than walkways.

It might take me the next four weeks to fully fill in the screen. What I'm trying to ask is once the screen is filled in when do I stop tucking or how far do I let the shoots grow upwards at pre flower or before flower on set ? In other words, going into flower 2" above the screen 4" - 6" - 8 " etc

if i dont move my ladies or water them twice they are wilting by late afternoon.... Moving them is the best move. Its been really hot in Cali this season and since i use tap water w/o treating it ( only leaving it fir 24 hours before use ) i move instead of water again.

  • hey guys, so i was reading a sick LST thread today and it was working so sick it inspired me to go out and buy pipe cleaners and LSTd most of my plants.the first one i did was the one on my deck. i made it so all 4 colas are nice and seperated and theres nice sun hitting the center of the plant. however
    of course i did a lil to much and snappped the stem. obv i taped it together instantly. really hoping it makes it through or ill be pissed i fucked with it.
    the plant was looking really nice but wanted to give the obv benefit of lsting. the 2 pics are the deck LST and deck Taped. and my tall jack LST just
    seperating the two stems from each other nothing crazy cuz thats my baby. didnt do it to jack #2 cuz she isnt big enough.

    im scared of the stem i broke tho, any input tips on repairing that is much appreciated guys. thanks

    Plz Pm tips or hints about the broken stem or like this status if ur gonna post a tip for me, cuz so many ppl look and reply to this thread i only check back about every other day. so liking the status ill know to check back to and possibly reply if necessary.
    to look @ peeps pics and comments.

It will probably heal just fine with the tape, however if you wanted to you could use good old super glue so i can watch the experiment. Reef keepers use super glue in fish tanks to glue live coral and other aquatic plants. I have not used super glue on a plant just yet. When i get deep cuts i don't get stitches i get super glue. I figure if my plants are about the same to me relatively then why not? Also not sure if it is the light from the camera that is making the leaf in the first picture on the left look like it has a nitrogen deficiency or not. Give it like 1ml per gallon folliar of your grow and see it bust.

First grow babies, only in my hands for two weeks...are they happy? Tips or suggestions to help increase their yield when they are grown? Neither have full 7 fan leaves, only 5-guessing that means they are still pretty young. Chemdog on left and g-13 on right.

I've done this a few times. I tend to get kinda aggressive tieing my plants down. Leave the tape on it will heal fine. You could wire the 2 branches together for more support.
