I’m not even going to ask where you been when you make an entrance like that! Beeeuuutifulll…
Are you gonna hang out for a while? Be nice to see some updates on these beauties…
Today is 09/09/2023
@sdoyle Good to see you also it has been awhile
@happilyretired I been posting a bit at icmag with my Social_Misfit handle and here is a
bit of a back story and will keep you updated
This is a Island Sweet Skunk x Holy Goddess I made back 2021 and was growing out
when The Police whacked my plants down in 2022
this year I have six plants in the ground and I am within the law, I will say growing six
plants for me is not even like growing
I would have between 70 to 99 out in a New York minute by the state say otherwise
so my plants went out 05/05/2023 nice and early
so we are outside nice and early weather is not bad
this 05/28/2023 the plant has been hit by frost three times the smoke from the fires in
Canada has been keeping it cold here
06/17/2023 after cutting all the dead stuff off and a bit better weather starting to
come back around
here we are 07/02/2023 I most of the time use Jack’s Classic 20-20-20 for my
fertilizer but someone sent me a sample of Mega Crop 9-7-14 which I used at half rate
all thru veg
07/23/2023 I have not trim these plants at all after they went into the ground, the T-post
are 7 foot tall with about a foot in the ground
went with chicken wire around the plant and a netting for them to grow thru
I did give them Jack’s bloom blaster 10-30-20 on 07/14/2023 to get them going
towards flowering
08/23/2023 starting to flower nicely at this time I have been using a bloom booster
Monopotassium Phosphate 0-52-34 I have not used it in awhile but need all the buds I
can get out of six plants
works like bud crack
08/26/2023 so we have flower coming on
09/07/2023 flowering super well looking for four pound of dried buds off this
single plants
need to build a tumble trimmer
all the best and be safe

Very nice, very nice indeed.
So let us put some names to the six plants I have in this 2023 season
Today is 09/09/2023 it has rained all summer here and just got hot at the
end of August
a shot of the six, I put them in an OK spot I have better but I was going to fly along
without the paperwork so I put them out of the way
about July I thought better as I did not want to lose another crop this year
so I paid for my wife and I to be medical and have six plants
Fuck The Police
Black Alien MAC f2 (Black Domina/MAC x MACRIDDLE) x Runtz it is
Brass City Genetic’s work
Mr.Clean x MAC Brass City Genetics
Purple Diesel x Holy Goddess beans I made in 2021
Island Sweet Skunk x Holy Goddess my beans
Moroccan Peanut Butter
Morockin Kush (Moroccan Sativa × Pakistani Indica) × Peanut Butter Breath (Mendo Breath F2 × Dosido)
DJ Short Blueberry x Chocolate OG my beans
so those are the six
all the best and enjoy the day

They really are beautiful! You definitely have a huge harvest coming.
I wish I could grow outside without doing any trimming. I battle bugs. I’m surrounded by almonds, so yeah. Looks like you’re gonna hit your goal to me. You don’t have any sick problems out there?
thank you but they did all the work I watched, also growing six plants outside in the ground
is not so much work
we get very wet and cold falls sometimes and gray mold/bud rot will happen in a minute and
break your heart
so we shall see, my granny always said “don’t count your chickens before they have hatched”
but they are a nice indeed and thank you for the kind words
most of the time I cut my plants with hedge shears and have 70 plants in a mass
with six I needed them big and staking plants is not my strong suit
I had mites inside one spring I moved outside as early as I could to get away from
the Borg
if they get to harvest it looks like I will do well
powdery mildew is around I am going to spray with some Potassium Bi Carbonate
better safe than sorry
some Blah Blah Blah
these are the six the could have been spread out a little better but I am not a grower of
huge plants I keep them at the size I want
this Island Sweet Skunk x Holy Goddess is all of 10 foot across by 8 foot tall and is single
plant
so many buds and filling in nice
like I said staking plants not my thing shaping plants keeping the size I want more
of my growing tech
but the T-Post with chicken wire and netting appears to be working well
time will tell it always does, it’s a snitch
nice flowers coming on I have high hopes that these will do well in my falls here at 42.8 N
lots of mold and rot. if it does well and smokes good I will F2 them next year and work
them along
these will be a very hard Indica bud and may mold, I might try some green cure on them
could always take a leaf blower and blow off the dew in the mornings
here is to a good fall here in New York it is a crap shoot at best some years
all the best and grow well
Dequilo
As far as long as they are, you could do a pretty heavy defoliation now, which would really help prevent mold. The buds are formed. You can get rid of a lot of the foliage inside that you don’t need.
I have been using Hypochlorous acid once a week as a preventative for a couple years now once the heavy dew starts forming in the fall. It is prevented almost all mold and rot problems (I have a generator), The only spots I got last year was worms that snuck by the BT.
Anyways, I’m talking to a pro you know what’s up do your thing.
I’m in Massachusetts, I know all about the cold and wet falls. I lose some to bud rot every year, just hope it’s not too much. Today was torrential downpours.
indeed you do it rained here in buckets last night
some years are better than other and you need to find the right plant for where you
are outside
grew from 1984 to 1995 outside in the Adirondack State Park had a plant that was
a Northern Light cross that did really and finished as long as you got it in
held up well to the cold but let it go when I stop for 5 years and any seeds I had were
trash
working on finding one again that works for here but more then likely will put up a Greenhouse
and be done with it now that I can do this growing with out one of the rippers
stealing my work the other ones I have pigs for them or a pond
what kind of PPM are you using ? I might try some to test sounds like a winner
not I the plants and G_d they do the work I watch and help as needed
be safe and stay free
Dequilo
I go straight out of the generator. I run three cycles. Going by what is written on the site by the manufacturer that should be putting it somewhere around 260 ppm. it basically kills all that crap spores and all on contact immediately. It does not remove it, leaves the dead stuff there so it’s visible just dead. once it dries it has evaporated It is gone. but it is already done its job. There is no residual with this product. That’s why I do it once a week treatment in case some sort of spore landed on the plant from somewhere else. This will take care of it before it gets a foothold. Soak the plant good if it’s got visible signs just a light fog. If it doesn’t.
sounds like something to try for sure
I will trim them a bit soon and will spray Potassium Bicarbonate which kill PM on contact
just to be safe
I just need to starting thinking about what kind of Greenhouse to build if I do 2 plants side by side
I will need 24 or 25 foot wide around 36 or 40 foot long, could just do 25 foot by 50 foot
with 15 foot or so tall down the center
I will be working in the ground so how tall could change a bit, there is no zoning here so build
whatever you want is not a problem
after trimming looks like a fall project, just need to find a plan for tumbler trimmer
all the best and have a great day

so I did not put a few months of growing up because to be very honest
growing six plants outside is not what I am use to as far as plant count and vegging
six plants is boring
I did take pictures because I always do for my look back it is so much better to do it on a board as
a grow log
So let us start at 05/05/2023 I wanted to be out the first of May but it had to wait until the fifth which
is a bit early for 42.8 N in upstate New York
but 2022 I was out the first so why not do it again eh?
Moroccan Peanut Butter
Morockin Kush (Moroccan Sativa × Pakistani Indica) × Peanut Butter Breath (Mendo Breath F2 × Dosido)
Island Sweet Skunk x Holy Goddess my beans
DJ Short Blueberry x Chocolate OG my beans
Mr.Clean x MAC Brass City Genetics
Purple Diesel x Holy Goddess beans I made in 2021
hempy bucket going in the ground
Black Alien MAC f2 (Black Domina/MAC x MACRIDDLE) x Runtz it is
Brass City Genetics work
so my six went in nice and early for New York and May here was pretty nice all an all
they were in pretty heavy pre flower as they are from spring of 2022 seed starting
so we had revegging going on being out so early took a bit to get back to veg
but you shall see
so like here we are at 05/26/2023 my poor plants
hit by frost three time at this point
welcome to the North East
