4 months!? i don't think that long surely...... shit you're right aren't you..... november, december, january = bud + Feb = Bud........ GULP!...... She will be a bit large for my liking.... see how i go. Might have to Bonzai her and train her along a rail or something... i'll have some fun, see if i can hide it too.
lol thanx mate! they were some small plants but kept my mrs and i happy for weeksactually my mrs preferred that smoke over my indoor at the time as that was too strong and made her think too much!? heh chicks. Talk too much more like it. kiiiiiiiding all the ganja babes out there!
Yeah i've used hydro nutrients many times outside, i think the last run i did had 5 plants of that skunk..... the 3 were organic and i had another 2 larger ones that were a few weeks ahead for some earlier smoke and they were force fed hydro nutrients, and i agree that those turned out a little more potent and to my liking. A better more sweet aroma also. However, the organic were a little more harsh and 'pine tasting' the hydro being an almost custom musky yet citrus skunk smell to them. All in all it was amazing to see the same strain that i grew indoors outside and get amazingly different results because of climate conditions, medium i used and weather variables. I notice a hotter climate produces more potent more resinous product.
When it comes time for FLOWERING !!!
One thing i will say is when i learnt how to grow indoors is when it came time to set flowering height and positioning, i was thinking the canopy was far too close to be safe to the light.... I WAS WRONG. ALWAYS TEST WITH YOUR HANDS TO SEE IF IT'S COMFORTABLE FOR ATLEAST 1 MINUTE UNDER THE LAMP AT CANOPY HEIGHT. The plants can handle heat. Believe me!! but they can't handle TOO MUCH LIGHT. But in order to get MONSTER colas, you HAVE TO HAVE YOUR LAMP AS CLOSE AS SAFELY POSSIBLE. I MEAN AS CLOSE AS YOU CAN HAVE IT WITHOUT STRESSING THE PLANT. With good ventilation you can get by with extra heat and more lumens per square inch. But always test, and maximize your output!! I see too many WATT WASTERS!!! Use the spread of the lamps output, think of why some lights have reflectors. To MAXIMIZE spread so coverage is more even over a given area. The fact is the only position where the lamps output is at maximum efficiency is quite a small and limited area, as to why i scrog the way and shape i do. The lamp is most efficient given the output at around 10-16 inches. NO MORE. If you trail away from that, do not expect colas the size of your fist, the light output simply is not enough. A NEW lamp will also run 2-3 degrees cooler than another lamp that is 30 days old. I've seen the tests.
Where did all that come from?! dribblin away, but hopefully some useful info for some
Sweet dude, sometimes i even prefer outdoor hey, depends if ive grown it or not lol. I usually use all organic nutrients (way too fuckin expensive for what they are though) which have always given me a good tasting smoke, i now just use flairform nutes and organic bud enhancers (psychobud) which works just as well!
So keen to see how big your girl gets man, the size of her already tells me she will be big, only think restricting her is the pot size
f she was in the ground she would be an absolute monster! You could try training her along the fence and pin her to it loosely..ive done it in the past and the plant stayed about 1ft off the pot but stretched about 1.5m in either direction haha. Good advice about canopy control too, that will be something i'll have to keep an eye on!!
