Glad you guys didn't suffer any damage. No hail here--seems like the last couple thunderstorms just nicked us in the midcoast. Maybe Mother Nature will settle down a bit for the second half of the summer and fall. But I have a feeling it's going to be a doozy of a hurricane season. Just what places like Houston or Florida need right now--a natural disaster on top of a raging pandemic.
Ive had rain everyweek. 1.2 inches this morning. Notsoggy but a lot more than normal.
Thanks for the reassurance and advice. So far I've just been removing mostly lower inside leaves that are turning yellow. I'll follow your lead and remove the sucker branches a few at a time.
We had lime sized hail in out county and tornados! Lots of damage... but luckily no one was hurt and my plants were out of the strike zone
Damn, what's going on in Wisconsin this year? Sounds more like Kansas! Glad you were spared. Do you put up some sort of cover later in the year to protect the crop? I'm debating whether I ought to here to keep buds dry during the fall.
Looking might fine there. Next week I don't except to see anybody standing behind your garden...unless they're on stilts!
Yeah storms have been getting more severe every yr. No I dont put up anything. I want as much air flow as possible!
Unfortunately that's the story here too and will likely continue/get worse in coming years.
Caterpillars really are not a problem here so no I do not use bt.
Hard to tell but the second pic looks like balls...how old is this plant? Might want to ride it out a bit longer to be sure but looking like a dude. Sorry.
I would say another week and then check
Looks great! That must be tough growing with neighbor right on top of ya.
I use BT first 6 weeks of flower cats are bad in maine,I use spinosad twice a week until early flower.
Yep. Sucks. I gave my neighbours a heads-up and they’re cool with it. The neighbour on that side said he likes it when the wind blows his way. Lol. I’ll give him some samplers after harvest to keep the peace. It’s not so much the neighbours, it’s the teenage punk kids I’m worried about. And now my own kids are older and know what it is...they don’t buy into the whole tomato plants and we have skunks under the shed story anymore. Loose lips sink ships and gets your plants ripped! I can only hope they keep it to themselves. You can smell the plants the next block over come September which doesn’t help either. Too bad they don’t make an outdoor carbon filter.
Been there done that with kids LOL,Now we all smoke together just gotta fool the grand kids now.It sure is nice to be on the legal side now
