It is good to see such happy plants. You will be rewarded...

LOL... I veg my plants at 14/10 to avoid flowering when I put them out in April.

You've set a new standard for brevity...

This book is pricey but if you want a top notch reference for problems with our favorite herb, it is the best. The authors are serious experts. http://www.amazon.com/Hemp-Diseases-Pests-Management-Biological/dp/0851994547

BTW, you can fill that pot with soil. She will thank you for it. The more soil, the more buds. Rooting gel coating the soon-to-be-buried stem might help add new feeder roots as well.

Give the potted plant a tablespoon of 21-0-0 in five gallons of water. A teaspoon of Epsom salts(Magnesium) would add insurance. DRENCH it! Don't make it any stronger, though. Yellowing is usually caused by a shortage of Nitrogen and/or Magnesium. The yellowed leaves may not regreen, but new...

According to "Hemp Diseases and Pests", the Russet or 'Rust' mite would do considerable damage to the leaves. I'm beginning to think it might be some sort of stem borer or bark eater. A rat or mouse might firle a large stem, but would deo it near the ground. How about providing the best pix...

It looks like the 'wood' inside the stem is discolored as well. I'm really baffled by this. Is the stem hollow? Are there any critters inside?

It isn't killing the whole plant at once? I've never seen anything like that. I'd say get very serious with Azamax or the like. Safer's soap too. This is all out war. Don't procrastinate!

Bummer! I'll be in the city tomorrow, but am tied up, Sunday.

Ok.. It is late in the season to start. What is your average first frost date? Back up 8 weeks from that date. That is the date you want the plant to start the budding process. It will take about four weeks to show sex which will be the day it starts flowering. It sounds like you are pretty far...

Just spray Bt. The next bite will kill them.

Mulch heavily with leaves and grass clippings. Add some 'red wigglers' after watering deeply, if they aren't already present. Those worms will turn the mulch into fertilizer in a few weeks. Mulch at least 6 inches thick for water retention and to cool the soil. You can spend yourself into...

Thanks for that! I need to find out how to graft peach trees. I have the best tasting peaches on an old tree in my back yard. I need to graft it soon. I'd hate to lose it.

Exactly! Don't pinch! It is too late, without costing you some serious buddage. Use wire to bend them over if they're too stiff to go through the remesh. I saw your pic, and thought you'd pirated my pix. My fig tree is next to one of my grow beds like yours. GOOD munchies!

I think you're right about getting a stronger dose from the bottom. I prewater before feeding, as well. I've found, over many years that some plants are sensitive, to the point of an allergic reaction. I've had six foot plants suddenly, and literally 'collapse' for no visible reason. I never...

Probably, but why give them a slam dunk? One thing I believe is that our legal system is badly broken. It is the World's largest criminal conspiracy. If they want you, they'll take you, and invent charges. If you are smarter than them, they'll kill you, in your home, on the street, or in jail...

Never post your face on a pot website. Face recognition software is everywhere. Nice plants!

Looking MIGHTY fine. I might need a chain saw to harvest my little greenhouses. They're already packed solid. I'm adding a couple ground level fans to keep good air movement. The weather this summer has been nearly perfect.

Beautiful big sun leaf. The largest I've found in my garden was a Durban Poison 9 fingered wide body whose central blade was 12 3/4 inches long from the 'eye'. Those DPs are huge producers.
