I'm serious about the location. It's called the fall line region look it up. That kind of forest can only exist in a certain temperate range. Slightly farther north and it becomes mostly decidous hardwoods, which hasn't happend yet. Kudzu tells me its the southest, yellow pine tells me it's coastal, red clay with no topsoil means it's the fall line.
Anyway I think these were vegged year, not sure if anyone noticed that.
Notice the lights and the date. I can assure you if the dates are wrong, there's no way you that no kind of growth goes on like that in a month. We rarely had a frost in that area however, it's considered subtropical, and if you wash the plant down on the days of frost before the sun comes up, no problem. Let it set, they burn. I've grown sativas there that didn't finish until around thanksgiving or december.
And then in the transplant photo the dirt is tilled, with boards crossing it. You cannot grow MJ in clay, however the tap root will dig right through that shit. When I grew there in small pots we'd cut off the bottom so the root can grow down and you'd rarely have to water on 100f days, which is most of the summer.
Also they aren't "SCROGGING". They are supporting the massive weight, that is in an untopped plant left to do it's majesty.
It might not look right, but it's certainly more than possible, and to me... it just makes sense and confirms the stories.
