Did you get any of that big wind a couple nights ago? We just about got blown away.


It looks like a you have a lot of plants and they are all in pots. I don't have a very good track record for growing in pots. It's not that I don't know how, I just can't make it work. I grow in the ground.

Man I’m truly sorry for you guys areas you have to grow in that’s shitty but mine here in southwest Michigan have been a-1 I’ll post my plants later but I’m in a great spot in the mitt all storms and such same to break soon as it gets close! I’m just hoping the weather stays ruley, I had one plant (raspberry glue)start flower mid July and the rest I’ll say a week ago started

Mother nature adding her input on what needed to be trimmed back.

Good lord, man, kind of look like they were trimmed with an ugly stick. That's a heart breaker. It looks like most of it can be tied back up. That looks like what happened to mine except yours are worse. I tied the bent branches back and trimmed the broken ones and they look almost good again.

I've seen pictures of your grow and how nice it looked so I think you will fix this and it will be just fine. Still it's a real pain to see your hard work and nice plants take a beating like that.

I was planning on lollipoping them and thinning them out anyway. Not worth the effort to save all the smaller branches. The back left branch is a good arm sized branch I will tie up and save. The trellis netting saved the unseen one in the back from some serious main stalk damage.

" Your cup runneth over " ! I feel like a loser after seeing those juggernauts of yours. Shit-Fuck , I wanna grow some like those. I can grow here in Upstate, 6 indoor plants legally . No outside growing . I grow about 18 indoors and about 6 outside ( can't be too obvious....can't grow them too big , a real bummer.

How are you treating your leaf septoria?
Its so prevalent in the area Im just using Lost Coast 3-4 times a week and throwing in some Monterey once a week as well. Its on my plants a little bit as well but nothing like the surrounding plants. Sorry I dont have a better answer but i dont know that there is a product that will eliminate It completely.

Wow! You are working hard! I started sulfur,(with no copper), in early July, only once a week, but the septoria is gaining again. Most of my plants will be harvested way early, if at all. This is my 3rd bout with it. Did you start preventative spraying early in the season, or did you wait until it appeared?

Thanks, yes i have been working hard, but Im retired so its more fun than work for me! I started preventative maintenance spraying back in April when I first planted them. I have only seen it on some of the lower leafs and i pluck them if i see any.
 
Two experiments out on the deck with only 5 gallon pots. SSH. 2 weeks or so into flower. TPS One/Fish emulsion nutes every 3rd day. It’s a part time job. Tallest one is 74” as of today.
