I wouldn't re plant it I'd leave it, another thing once you've put a plant outside don't fetch it back indoors, you might bring in pests... I would have a bash outdoors but ill wait till I move house (not keen on my neighbours)
Yeah it's staying outside! That's going to grow strictly outside for the yield factor.

Have you got it growing along a fence/ trellis you can weave it into it that way you'll be able to keep all the plant without topping it, and keep it out of view of unwanted eyes unless you live in the middle of no where.

My neighbors are cool. Except for the douches on the other side of us in a rental.....but with the money from my first harvest I'm putting up a brand new 6ft privacy fence around that side of the fence line lol. I'll also plants some lavender and stuff to kinda help with odor control.
Plant a couple of garlic plants that will mask the smell and citrus smell will help too

I don't. I guess I can just supercrop and LST the shit out of it lol. But to be staking all that plant down I gotta hide it from the kids and animals... Now it's just kinda blending in.....I have been talking to the wife about me getting a shed made.......

Jesus you guys!!!!! So I went in about an hour ago to just check on Em. And the leaves are all droopy.....so I decided I'd give them a good watering. I was feeding all 3 plants with the same 4cups of water split between the 3 plants. So I stepped it up. I ran first just straight PH'ed distilled water. Probably 8 cups without any type of runoff.....

Sooo. I said fuck it lets give a little bit of grow big and big bloom and raise the light a inch or two. Lights on are coming up at 4pm!!!!! I can smoke with my girls!!!!

Also grabbed a big ass bag of fox farms! Need to go grab some perlite to mix with when my wife gets back. I'll even throw in some petemoss.

Do I have to ph my distilled water anymore since the soil is pre PH'ed to 6.5?

You may not have to ph your water, but I've never seen a post in sick plants where the problem was water ph is too perfect lol

Update coming tomorrow (tonight) fellas. Also I'm pretty sure I'm in the very first day of flowering. (Day 31) 40 days of flower :D lol. But I'm stoked! I'm pretty sure I solved the whole fungus gnat thing for sure now!! I grabbed a bag of play sand and put about a 1in layer on top of the soil. Haven't seen 1 gnat in site. Or on the plants.

The plant that's in the back right of the 3 NL has some big ass pistols on it. Lol. Just really long. That plant has a completely different stature about it the the other two. While the other 2 are short and fat....this on is tall and skinny. Hopefully it yields a decent amount.....I don't see very many bud sites yet.

DAY 32 UPDATE!!!!

Alright guys with my ghetto version on LST I think I have done a good job so far......one of my plants is spotting pretty bad. Im sure the fungas gnats took a toll on her.....Hopefully she pulls threw.....I have been killing these bastards. They just refuse to leave. NEVER using organic soil ever again. If someone would like for me to send pics of it with lights off let me know. She looked so damn healthy the other day. Gave them a good water and feed yesterday of their first FULL strength of nutes!!

Also does this look like its in flower? Or right about ready to start? The little "bud" on the top is starting to look kinda like a little nug.

Also this may be a pointless question but can anyone guess how much the total yeild of this whole grow will be around?

3 Vision Northern Lights
1 dinafem OG kush
2 Barneys NYCDiesel
2 Strain Hunters money maker

Im hoping to yeild atleast a half LB total dry weight of all the plants in this room. My next batch of seeds are my heavy yeilders....... (Buddah magnum, lemon kush, Heavyweight vast n vast, Og kush, etc)

That's not a bud, it's leaves, don't see any preflowers yet and yield should be about a £

well thats better than nothing! roughly $3500 cash value.

my order coming from herbies now should yeild alot more than my current plants. :) hopefully anyways! Im also sticking to fox farm soil! Even if I have to order 10 bags a time off amazon ($13 for the 1.5cu bags) the nursery here charges $18.99.....But hope to have good luck on this next batch of seeds.


for the record.....
NYCD planted 4/17
OG kush 4/23
Barneys NYCD (didnt pop, planted any ways). 4/23
