Rained for 6 weeks here to...temps are between 37-43 the past 5 days and next week as well...plants at end of rain were 70cm 6 days later they are 90cm with higher dry temps...i like the plants at 1.2m by Dec 20 so I'm behind but catching up
How much do you normally have to water each plant in temps like that? Its been cooler lately but getting to be that hot here now and ive only been watering about 10-20L every 3 or 4 days. Is watering one of the biggest factors in the size of the plant?

Yeah I noticed you we're a few weeks behind in growth wasn't sure if it was because of the strain or weather .but I'm sure you will still end up with some very impressive plants ruby.

Running the King Kong again this year put a few of the old freebies from attitude in Afghan kush, WW/BB ,BB/NL,Lemon Kush,Krazy Train, NYC Diesel Auto,Afghan KushRyder and Magnum Auto
NiCE strains. Most of my freebies from the tude got wet and died haha. But I should be harvesting a few hundred cash and trippy gorilla seeds a rounds new years so I'll throw most of them in the ground for a small gorilla garden. I used 1 and a half litres of power feed on the weekend. I think I may have planted to many this year haha. I grew the ww x bb it had huge indica buds but the rain destroyed it and turned all to mold.

Lets put it this way if your letting your soil dry completely between watering for more than a day then thats precious time the plants are not growing to thier full potential.
I water by bucket till they are well over a metre then I run a hose from the water tank and leave it to our 10-15 mins worth of water at 1/4 speed
Last yr was the first year I used a hose like that and yield improved markedlyfrom using a bucket/watering container.
Works in the soil like I am...
If yours are in pots u only need to water till u see run off I'm sure u would already do that...and slow deep water is better than fast soak...
Fuck me i wrote a story...blue dream does that lol

Im not so sure bout the sour kush..way more I Indica than last year and seems to be fussy...the sharksbreath is looking ok
But the smell on the stem rub sour kush is out of this work.
This week was the first week my moisture reader said they need a water for the last 8 weeks.
Thats my main reason for slow growth I'm guessing cloudy days to till this week
