My buddy and I got 100% females this year with our seeds and clones. We must have got lucky.

Here’s a quick update. Flowering is going well. The smaller plant looks about a week ahead of the bigger one. Buds are looking nice and getting frostier by the day! Big plant is almost 6ft tall now.

I live in a reseidential area quite far from Southern Ontario (north of Toronto) and all my outdoor crops have been pollinated

No males or hermies in my yard, it’s either hemp cross pollination or some bastard is growing a male for fun.

Btw OP, plants are looking great! Hope the smoke is a classic Pink type of smoke for you.

View attachment 4398867 Very nice, I'm in Muskoka, got 1 outside turned to a monster hit like 13 feet, with no nutes. Good to know theres enough people still doing it. I love growing in my tent but I can't get 7 pounds a plant inside lol. Sorry if you already Bee asked but what strain are u growing. I got a wedding cake outside beastly. Hoping it can fight the damp and enough wind keep it dryenough so it doesn't rot.

Ontario guy here to! Would love to ask you guys/gals a question on aphids. They have appeared in good numbers on my 2 plants ....

I have picked up both insecticidal soap , and made the tomato leaf spray this morning. I will need to be hitting the buds with whatever I use, which one would you guys choose to control an aphid issue. I don't want to affect the taste or health of my buds, so I am quite anxious to take care of it .

TIA !

I used insecticidal soap for leafhoppers this year, and that probably kept the aphids off. That and the other plants in my yard that attracted them. Milkweed, a rosebush, and a couple of firethorn plants. I would try the tomato spray first, the insecticidal soap works, but it's smelly, and there was a rumor (unsubstantiated so far) that it can damage trichomes.
You may want to mix the tomato spray with potassium bicarbonate to prevent bud rot or powdery mildew from the dampness.
