cali growers and their season??

Just curious, this is my first year growing and living out here in California. Im in the northern state. Anyways some of the farmers and growers have said this is a slow growing year. anyone seeing the same thing ? Could this mean a later harvest. But mine are looking good and seem to be growing to schedule

Water is an issue, plus the heat is slowing things down. At least, that's the word around the campfire.

IDK about Cali, but it has been a pretty slow season in GA, Heat and lack of rain mostly.

Ya this heat has been pretty intense

Yup, I'm in the north state too and it's brutal, late September or October should be a good estimate depending when you put them out and strain. Hoping it rains soon, 100 degrees and no rain for 4 months sucks
