Less Than 100 Days to Go

7-8-2014

This is a different kind of season. After having induced the plants to show their sex, now I cannot get all of them back into their vegetative stage. Some of the girls are only 2 1/2 ft tall but they are in full flowering stage. This is not good. Over half of the plants are growing tall, in a normal manner. As soon as I could decipher whether a plant was a girl, I up-potted it into a much larger container. I’ve been giving them high nitrogen, low/no phosphorus fertilizations (every 3 days). Don’t know what else to do.

As we slipped into July, the days are finally sunny and hot. All my plants have begun to grow bigger, responding to the full 14 plus hours of sunlight. Cloudless, sunny days are just what we need to grow large pot plants.

My girls are in fairly large containers, #15, #20 and #25. I now think that the biggest of my containers (#25) is probably too big, too much soil and too heavy. I also believe that the smaller ones (the #15s) are a little too small, but will work okay, anyway. You want your plants to be root-bound by September, so It’ll help to push the plant into flowering stage. If you are using a nursery-type shrub container (probably a #2 or a “5 gallon”) you’ll be watering your plants 3 and 4 times every day, which is a lot of work.

This is not a fertilizer day for me. I have put one gallon of clean water on each pot plant this morning, probably will give each plant another quart to 1/2 gallon later this afternoon. It is a hot day (over 95˚f) and they’ll need at least this much water to stay hydrated.
To relax we recommend: purchase female viagra lowering your caffeine intake, quit smoking, exercise daily to generate a sweat and simply close your eyes to the offense, but to hope for a change for the better. Imagine not being to preserve an erection devoid of a medicine!

Dairy: Dairy products are an excellent source of calcium and vitamin D, making dairy necessary for a healthy buy tadalafil uk diet.

Oh by the way, almost 1/2 my plants seem to be in serious flower mode.  I’ll be giving these plants a fertilizer NPK of 20-20-20 with either a touch of ammonia or else a big coffee cup full of white sugar mixed in to the water bucket. In two or three weeks, I suppose I’ll be using bloom booster fertilizer, but for now I still hope they will grow bigger, taller. It’s too damn soon for any of them to go into flower…I don’t use “auto flower” seeds.

I got two hermaphrodites this year. One is a sativa full blown girl/boy. The other is a more usual kind of here and there hermy. I’ll have pictures for you to peruse soon.

With these very hot temps, it is not unusual to have storms brew up in the after-noons here on the front range. So, we all have gotta watch out for severe weather events. Things such as rain followed by strong winds and hard rain, or, my least favorite…HAIL. I would much rather have full sun than clouds, but I’ll take what I can get.

Every year offers up new challenges. Every grow season is different than the last.  We still have three months to grow our crops and to get in a nice harvest. A lot can happen in 100 days.
