Plants reverting back to veg. Bummed!

I had to get my plants out of the garage and tear down my setup for an inspection a few weeks ago, so I brought them up onto the patio. They were about done under my light in the garage, but now are sprouting new growth. I pulled them half way threw week 8 of 12/12. The daylight this time of year is about 13 1/2 - 14 light hours per day where I'm at, although they only get about 8 hours of direct sunlight if I move them from one end of the patio to the other. At least, the new growth is smaller sized leaves with a good amount of resin on them. May make my buds bigger? I'm having to hand dip them in a bucket 3-4x per day since it was a hydro setup. This is getting old. The bucket had 1500 ppm nutrients when I started, haven't checked recently, but it should be the same 500 ppm as from the tap by now. Genetics are unknown for the strain I have. A friend gave me one of his weakling plants he was going to toss, and I made clones off 6 of the better branches. I'm thinking it must be something like BC Big Bud, but I'm not sure. It appears to be a 10 week flowering plant [if it was kept in hydro under HID lighting]. Even though his plant was his weakest, my clones took off and only one didn't do so good in the rockwool clone cube. Must of been the cube. They don't have a lot of stink to them, unless you touch a leaf. This could still be a security issue with my stick up her arse neighbor.

I'm wondering. Will It take a couple more months for them to ripen properly outside?
I don't think I want to go to all that effort with watering plants in hydroton by hand, and the first cut worms appeared yesterday. Cut worms are a real problem for outside grows around here. I don't want to start adding nutes to the water again, and the leaves haven't really started to turn yellow yet. Still a nice shade of green. They were a real nice dark green when in the hydro setup.

I'm thinking I should keep going till more of the stored up nutrients have been used up and the fan leaves all start to turn yellow.

Very frustrating. They should be hanging in the dry room closet set up with computer fans for ventilation] by now. They were just starting to show signs of being done. Some of the hairs were just starting to turn color.

With all the BS this neighbor lady has caused by calling the city and having multiple inspections going on almost monthly, just to mess with the landlord, this has been a real pain in the arse. Originally I had set up a duplicate op as Al B. Fuct with two 1000w HPS, 4- 3' x 3' tables for flower, one 3' x 3' for mothers under a 400w HPS, and a nice clone area. Had to tear it all down the first time she started calling for inspections. Good thing I hadn't started growing yet. Then I got the free plant, and just set 6 of em up under the 400W with no veg time. Then again with a city inspection. Had to take a day off work, tear everything down, hide everything, then set up same day after inspection. Now this last time with another city inspection of the water heaters. I'm not going back into the garage here again so long as she lives here.

Do you need to move the fuck out of there or beat the shit out of the lady

Just keep a close eye on them and an even better eye on your bitch neighbour......yes...

Lol no, don't beat the shit out of that lady. Cheese and rice, Ryan...

No kidding! I'll bet that she either moves, or gets evicted soon. Pain in the arse!

Anyway, while giving them their last watering of the day and looking for more cut worms, I found a banana. No doubt caused by all the moves and stress the plants have had to endure. I brought them in, and spent most of the night giving them a nice manicure. Today, I'll be setting up a new dry area, and tomorrow, I'll cut them out of the pots & hang em. It was nice being able to do the trimming while they were still in the pots. Made it easy to do.

In any case, I'll call this a big success overall. It's been over 20 years since I've grown anything, and this was my first try going Hydro. I didn't get to do the SOG I wanted to do, and wound up topping all but the weakest one to keep things low enough for good light penetration with my 400w HPS. They are all about 1 1/2 foot tall, and almost all one tight bud. The best stuff I've ever grown.

One of my GF's daughters came in after I just finished trimming the weakling [18" tall] plant that didn't get topped.
Quote "Wow, that's just one big ass bud."

All the best made plans, etc, Shite on again!!!
I finally got a place to rent to do the Al B. Fuct grow full scale, and the landlord rented it before I could come up with the cash. The cash guy is upset because of this and wants to pull out. F! F! F! F!
I got another place coming up in a couple/few months, but who knows. Cash guy may be gone, and I have no cash. Kicking myself in the nuts for not getting all this stuff going years ago when I had a good job and settlement money. But it wasn't legal back then, and like I said, I had a good job at the time. My super power appears to be hindsight. I'm so bent right now, my brain wants to go into a coma! Today started off with everything ready to go. First and last was getting delivered tonight, and I was going to start construction tomorrow after getting the keys from the landlord. AAARRRGGGG!!!!! I spent the day today giving out free buds to people in need. It felt good to be able to do that, but all this has ruined my good feeling.

On a side note, the stuff I grew is pretty good. I haven't tried it yet. Still needs a couple more days in jars. The stems still bend rather than crack. I'll try some tonight, but my GF says it's a good working high. Not a plant ya in the couch high, or a go to sleep high. They were pulled early from stress of having gone threw major environmental changes and a banana popping out. Sounds like just the sort of weed I need for my stress tonight after the business day is done. Right now, it's all about a few beers and a few sips of Wild Turkey.

I'm not looking for any cash guys by posting this. Please don't PM me about it. You won't be answered. Even though it's legal, I don't want to work with anyone I don't know in person.

Building character, and blood pressure, one planned attempt at a time!!!

Oh, and the gal who was doing all the complaining and causing all the problems, she just got filed on for eviction!!!! Hahahahahaha!!!!!! Serves her right!!!! Sometimes A-Holes get what they deserve!!! She don't even know it yet! Hahaha!

I am soooo glad I own my house and my life is drama free...

That blows dude! Good luck with your ventures!
