Well, it’ll be July tomorrow, and all my plants have been induced to show their sex. Last year my plants were stubborn and just would not show me their sex. This year, they’ve all been very complient, so by now I have all the girls either planted into their final large containers or given away to neighbors. I got just under 44% to go female, just over 56% went male. And I got one phenomenal hermaphrodite. It has trichomes growing on its balls. I’m keeping it on the other side of the backyard, not that that’ll help very much in controlling its pollen plume when it spews. Don’t yet know if it’ll create sterile powder or if that male powder will create feminized seeds. I’ll find out later. I don’t like the idea of gentic modifications, but we’ll see what happens…more on this, later. All the girls are now in fairly large containers (#15s and larger) and have to be knocked back into their vegetative growth stage; going heavy on the nitrogen, light on the phospherus. I’m using ammonia…others use blood meal. I want these girls to go back into the veg growth stage where they’ll put on size. Sometime in August I’ll promote flower growth by going heavy on the NPK ratio for phosphorus, using bone meal and other enhancements. I try not to use the genetically  modified plants called “auto flowering”. As on outdoor gardener I’m hoping for big veg growth during July and even August.

Auto-flowering plants only grow vegetation for 45 to 55 days, then they automatically go into flower (for another 40 to 50 days). They have bred plants mainly for indoor growers that only last 90 days to 125 days. Thats it… come and gone. Expect a small yield.

I’m counting on several things to put these gals back into veg. As soon as I can ascertain that a plant is a female, I put it into a large pot, where it wont be root bound. Then I use a high dose of ammonia, every 3 or 4 days, while it is out in the strong, direct Colorado sunshine for over 14 1/2 hours per day.

I do some strategic pinching on some plants, but do not want to go overboard with this technique. Also, when a big outer leaf gets played out, take it off, throw it into the compost pile.

I don’t want to over water them, but it is hot and they are growing. So I’m giving each plant a gallon of pure, clean water in the morning, then another one or two quarts during the afternoon. I know that I used to over water the girls 4 or 5 years ago. Now days I’m trying to get with it and promote responsible water usage. I guess that I, too, am trying to learn how to thoroughly water them and to then let them dry out. If the tips are falling over, you’ll want to get some water to that plants’ roots. It’s a good idea to promote full container root growth by not pouring water onto the plants stem. Try to force the roots to grow down into the complete container.

I really dislike it when some of my neighbors spray herbicides or pesticides in their yard and the winds carry that crap into my yard. I don’t like to even spray for mosquitoes as that bug spray crap can get into my female plants calyx-pistills. I sure don’t want to smoke that stuff. Bats and dragonflies eat plenty of mosquitoes.

Lots of sun, no hail. It’s a beautiful week here in Colorado
