            They look amazing! It's hard to imagine they were tiny clones a month and a half ago You have a green thumb! What is the climate like for growing in NZ?

              I'm still finding it hard to believe they are growing so well...just letting nature take its course and keeping it as simple as possible

                  Wow! They look fantastic koro!

                  are you concerned about the paths you're making? I'm guessing you just keep moving them?

                  Hi Koro1973. Your plants are gorgeous. Just keep doing what you're doing. Quite an undertaking for a first grow. Outstanding job so far. Must be fun humping water to all those plants. Those tall grasses and the bushes nearby seem to camouflage your plants really well. Thirty of them would be easily seen from the air though, especially with the trails you're making. I'm assuming law enforcement in NZ has access to airplanes, 4wd, and boltcutters just like ours do here in the US. You might want to check each plant carefully for bugs each time you visit. Have you thought about topping or FIMing them to encourage side growth? FIMing is fun. Thank you for posting video of your grow. Your part of NZ looks very much like where I live here in California. Good luck on your grow. Please be careful and safe.

                  Think about FIMing instead of topping. If nothing else it's very cool to see 3 or 4 nice colas sticking up out of the top of your plants. But I guess you're not really doing all this just to pass the time of day or to make pretty plants. Wish there was a way we could do a little horsetrading. I never smoked any NZ weed. Are there good NZ landrace strains?

                  Topping and FIMing are two plant training techniques that involve "pinching" or cutting off some of the top growth of your plant. These techniques are designed to give you a free way to achieve better plant shape (to make better use of the available light
