    question on curing burp style

    Survived Tropical Storm Nicholas

    ....looks not too worse for the wear, although it was a minimal Cat 1 upon landfall by the time it got to me 50 miles inland we had 40-45 mph winds and 3" of rain - two twigs seem to be all that got damaged, so i trimmed them off - they were some wimpy inside twigs with just a few small flowers...

    photoperiod timing

    its my first grow, plants were going thick and dense then we had a 4 day heat wave with temps hitting 100 and i had a die-off, but i put up sunshade and they have rebounded very well - actually may be a blessing in disguise as a lot of interior leaves died off and now there is great circulation...
