Kick ’em into gear

We are in the home stretch now. It’s time to kick ’em into gear. There are only 38 days until September 27th…often the last day before harvest. There are only 51 days until October 10th. I’m hoping for a long growing season, which would allow the sativa dominant plants to more fully mature. Many years I’ve had to pull an early harvest (late September). Only rarely have I been afforded the luxury of doing a long, drawn out harvest…into the 2nd or third week of October. It’s nice when the weather cooperates and I get to do a long harvest, with no rush.

You should be fertilizing with a bloom boost type fertilizer, with low nitrogen (N), high phosphate (P) and moderate (K).

Beer, sugar or molasses is okay anytime, but go easy. All that your plants really need everyday is water. I use really large containers to grow my plants in. Yesterday I put over 3 gallons into each container. Today I put in about 2 1/2 gallons into each. It has been hot and dry with no clouds. The girls are big and they need the water. I water them 3 times a day, almost one gallon each time I water them. I am trying to water as little as possible, hopefully less than last year. Sunny, cloudless days mean that they need to be hydrated often.

Another thing…cut off the dead leaves. Cut off those leaves that are yellowed and those leaves that are damaged. Cut out the sucker-twigs growing up thru the center of your plants. Do some maintenance with a good pair of scissors, give them enough water and then leave them alone. You’ll notice that they are flowering up and starting to smell good. We want our girls to flower up and not get pollinated (pregnant). Make sure that you’ve gotten rid of any late-turning males.

I have noticed that many of the containers need to be backfilled in order to protect those top-lateral roots. Tomorrow I’ll add about 2 inches of soil to each container.

This next two months is an anxious time. Many of my friends will be sleeping outside with their crops in order to thwart thieves.

We’ll have to stop all fertilizing 15 to 20 days prior to harvest. So, start watching the long-term TV weather forecasts.

So, we’re worried about bad weather and theives. Don’t throw any lawn parties, or even show these plants off to your buddies. Mum is the word.
