Hello everyone. Happy Summer Solstice. Here are my girls just chugging along. Saw a single spot of wpm on one of the autos. Hope it's not a sign of things to come. 14 day forecast has no days above 78f. Cool and humid, just like fall. And a few other flower shots, a Columbine, a few roses, and a Clematis just getting started.

Oh your place reminds me of my old place on the river, shady forested. My columbine are done except for a couple flowers hanging on. I've been collecting the seed pods i'll spread them around my yard near the fences. I would do this at my old place and man i had hundreads of them mostly the large purple ones. Now i've got yellows an reds pinks and purple but i want more LOL. Landscaping is so much joy to me, I just love walking in gardens. OK back to the weed. I too have found just a couple of leaf with WPM it's the early morning dew we still get. We've had cooler temps here and 2 days of rain which i put the autos into my greenhouse but the photos loved it. I don't think my autos are gonna be as big as i used to have outdoors only because i did'nt baby them indoors for a month they got stunted it looks like. I won't do that again first time for everything. Sorry for the long post but love your photos Bowhunterwoody

Thanks SoOrbudgal. Have a chance of rain every day right thru July 4th. Cooler temps too. My autos are on the small side too but it's definitely my fault. I only get around 7 or 8 hours of direct sunlight a day. They kinda slowed down when I brought them outside. Still doing ok though. Leaf hoppers have arrived too.

Now I am in on this. I don't usually grow outdoors as the climate here is not ideal for cannabis growing. It is forecast to rain for the next 12 days, and it has been raining and cloudy most of the time for the last 4 weeks. These are "seedlings" that were left over from the batch that I started for friends, 34 days old. They are orphans. I have no room for them in the tent, and I could not bear to just trash them. So 2 were put in 3 gallon bags with coco/perlite and 3 will be left in solo cups for the duration. I feel a challenge coming on. One of the plants in bags was topped above node 5 and the other was not touched at all. It will be interesting to see what happens to them. They need to be hardened over so for now just indirect sunlight.

Man did the wind blow! 114 MPH straight line winds, from what I can tell. Once I get caught up I'll have pics of my broken limbs, (lost 2 limbs) over all they held up well. Some of my 150 YO Oak trees snapped off at the ground several cotton woods were uprooted. I'll tell you, you dont know how much you'll miss electricity until its gone! All the family is good and little damage, my only structural damage is a very old rock building blew out a wall, mind made up tear it down.

 

[Rwise]

This is what I woke up to after the big blow, some of the pics may be fuzzy, limbs bigger than many autos gone.:super-cry: And look at the busted places, I coated them with fresh aloe vera juice, staked and tied them back up, though the Colombian purple has a split about 10" long, you can see how she laid over.

 

[Bowhunterwoody]

Wow Rwise. That sucks. Happy to hear no family got hurt.

 

[Bluey]

Oh no. How awful.
Head up, soldier on.
If I grew outdoors here and not in a fully fenced enclosure my plants would look like that every morning what is left of them...I know the feeling.
Sending buds your way.

 

[Going2fast]

I Feel your pain. Glad everyone is safe.

Had to rescue pond freak. Muskrat dug her up.

 

[Rwise]

That is better than a rabbit cutti8ng it down for moisture. Looks like its gong to survive!

 

[Rwise]

Pics for today, recovery is going well, the scarlet's are bout ready to harvest they'll be 90 days old July 3, Miz Berryfreak x SMCG is flowering nicely. A few pics of the garden and tree damage close to the house.

 

[Ckbrew]

Stay safe, keep on growing.

[Bluey]

Nice work. You can't tell that a week ago they were looking pretty trashed from that storm.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Well done Rwise sorry mother nature kicked yer arse last week.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

[Rwise]

I wonder how well a green house would have stood up? Those next door look ok and they are large.
Its amazing just how well they will recover.
