Stormy weather on my door step. Decided to bring the girls inside. Not ideal lighting, but it will work.
While my fan leaves look like it's the end of Sept., we are still stacking bud on 2 of them. The slow poke, which almost got the ax
is coming along finally, it's about 2 weeks behind the others. Hard to grow outdoors when the sun hasn't shown much this summer.
Hunkered down inside.

Yep those look good from here. I have smoke filled skies and ash falling at my place. Just the opposite of you. Our sun is covered in smoke and temps lowered alot. Really feeling the fall chill this a.m. breeze isn't helping just pushing smoke. Hey you'll get bud from those if you can give them some overhead light.

Yep GreenState. Another two day soaker. Wish I could bring mine in. Way too tall. Thinking of setting up the ez-up on the deck.for the next 6 weeks, just to slide them under for the rain which seems to come every other day. Yours look great considering what they've been through.

Wicked tough growing season for sure! So many obstacles to try and overcome or at least somewhat offset.
Losing direct sunlight on my deck is a biggy, currently only from 9:00-3:00.
Trying to devise a schedule to supplement for the lack of sunlight. 7:00-9:00am under the light(400w MH-I do also have a 400 w HPS around here somewhere) and then 4:00-6:00pm is what I'm thinking. I worry about breaking the nature light cycle though. I'm willing to try anything at this point! (lol).
Plant height/W container is 57" so I can only get so much light penetration.
I need a 9oz yield to justify not growing indoors this winter. We'll see.
On an up note, I did score another 1/2gal canning jar at the local thrift shop yesterday for $3.00, yeah.
Hopefully the weather will improve here, it's looking like from Thursday on might be a bit more positive, fingers crossed
Bluey Unfortunately I have intentionally long roof overhangs in the room's southern exposure side, to block
the direct sunlight from blasting in. That also results in the room being a bit darker/less ambient light, which plays into my
devised supplement light schedule.
But I'm open to all suggestions y'all might have!

Man those look great they sure are getting frosty. You sure deserve a badge for keeping those gals healthy looking through the crappy weather you've had. Just looking great to me very frosty. I keep dragging mine in an out from covers cause of the few rain showers we've had. I hope we all fair well till end of Sept.

Outdoor grow comparisons aren't really fair any longer. I'm now only getting 6 1/2 hr of direct sunlight on the deck.
As such, I've gone to a fully hybrid grow model. Currently, sunrise is at 6:20am, sunset at 7:20pm.
Soooo, plants are now getting 400W of HPS from 7:20am(1 hr after sun up) to around 8:30am,
then out they go on the deck. Then when I lose direct sunlight at 3:30pm, inside they go under the light until 6:20pm (hour before sundown). This allows them to wake up and go to sleep under ambient daylight conditions and spend the night indoors..
Although it is darker in the "sun" room than it is outside, still somewhat mimicking the natural light cycle with days getting shorter.
Will adjust accordingly as we go through Sept.
Confused now? So am I (lol)

So I'm thinking when I made the switch from outdoor to outdoor/indoor I may have convinced
these plants that it is later in the season than it actually is. White widow on left (which I'm glad didn't get the ax) is still
pretty vigorous showing no changed pistils yet, it will be awhile yet for that one. The mystery girl in the middle is still hanging in there(has a hint of GG4 smell), showing some cloudy trichs now,few more weeks anyways. And the GG4 on the right is starting to show its foliage colors. At least they will have time to fully finish, so that's great.
Looks like rain is ending here, 40's tonight. Left the girls out in the rain to get a good washing.
Not much pretty green in my picture like others! (lol)

GreenState. Still pouring here. Another 2-3 inches today. Torrential all day. Lee might come up the coast on Saturday and give us more rain but it's not a big deal these days cause 2-3 inches seems to be normal. Hope it goes out to sea. Your plants look really good. Nice fat colas. About as far along as mine. Maybe all the gloom has them finishing early. I hope so. Have an alien gorilla glue in the ground that a friend ended up not wanting that actually had a few amber yesterday. Still a few white pistols on that one. Maybe a good stretch of weather coming if Lee doesn't come close.

Bowhunterwoody Looks like you got hit with some pretty good rain yesterday. Thankfully today looks nice.
Hopefully the storm won't be to bad, not expecting much rain here, but high winds could be an issue.
Plants are still fattening up nicely(90% white pistils still), our days above 70 degrees are numbered here now, low 40's tonight.
This is one season I'll be happy to put in the books and be done with-I've had enough (lol).

First morning waking up to temps starting with a 3 handle, just barely, 39 <g>.
The girls were tucked into their unheated room safe space and waking up to the warmth of 400watts of hps
Sun is shining today though so they'll be happy to get outside I'm sure. (not much direct sunshine on the deck anymore, maybe 6 hrs)
Getting much more cloudy trichs on the mystery girl now, couple ambers. When I do think shes ready, I'll wait another week! (lol)
