Most of my girls are still going threw the stretch and do not expect to see popcorn buds till the first weeks of august. I have one strain that is flowering good outta all of em.

Have no fear unless we are at august 15th and you have no sighn of bud.

hey hic, long time no chat. i have a milky way male. gonna collect some pollen from that. also nutes, when do i start putting bloom nutes on em. my green crack is about 4.6 ft tall now and no pre flowers yet.also ur right about holding them plants down. i had to give up on stakin em down. i let em go to long between stakes. oh well ill be better at it next year. havent seen any choppers here yet. hopefully they run out of budget or fuel while flying. thanks hic. ur planrts sound like there doin great. i did a bunch of blueberry clones and there getting big enough for t/p. if ya want one let me know. well hook up. also picked up some sensi star , uk jungle cheese, super lemon haze and northern lights x super skunk x haze. he said the nlxskxhaze he brought back from amsterdam the year it won cannibis cup. who knows it does sound inviting though. the alaskan haze i have is a really good smoke and am asked for it all the time. got 2 coming out of room very soon. ill quit ramblin and catch ya later hic. happy growing.

I am still spraying neem oil on them. If you don't have buds I don't think it can ever be too late to start, unless they already laid eggs in there. I will stop once my buds start forming a little more. Probably another couple of weeks. I am no expert on bug control, but this year I have less damage with the neem oil. I don't really like the idea of spraying it onto buds. Even though it is organic, it smells bad and is an oil.

Anyone know when to stop using it?
When is the coast clear with bud worms? And when is too far into budding to spray?

Here are a couple of updated pics of the plants. So far so good. I had someone I can trust, and lives nearby, volunteer to water the plants in the greenhouse on Wednesdays. Thats one problem solved.

I've never seen one. I worry more about someone stealing them, but cops scare me too. The ones in the greenhouse have a little cover, because the glass is dirty. The only ones that really stick out are the two bushes with no cover, but that spot gets the best light in my yard. And is pretty out of sight from my neighbors.

To the people that ask about flowering nutes and when to put them on. I start appying bat guanno about the time they are done with stretching, When they stretch many plants I have grown use alot of N. After the stretch and no N deficiancy in sight and the buds become noticable, I begin feeding for flowers.

That is what I do. I use bat quanno for flowers. I use fish emulsion to supplement for N when needed. I use Grow Big veg for veg and fish emulsion. I use molasses sometimes and I use olivias for root health when I want to use it. I grow cheap but yet they still grow BIG, ain't that someting?
