Lets Grow Trees 2021!

Hi Dan, that AG is sure pretty. I assume it's a fem as AG regulars seem to be scarcer than hen's teeth, lol! Have you grown it before? I haven't had near the rain you have down there. Last nite tho 1 1/2 inches in less than an hour with strobe effect lightening was crazy. It's all at once or nothing in this neck of the woods.
 
Here is my biggest cannabis tree. In this pic it has just crossed 10ft. When it was small I had topped it for the first time for a manifold and then after about a week or so I accidentally snapped off one side in an awkward place and decided to let it grow natural. The broken side now is just a little vestigial bump while the second side took off and is taller than the other plants.

Tell me about it. I sometimes chuck little pieces of plant material that I’ve clipped in my garage grow room into the stones between my front bushes and my house as I come out of my garage when I don’t have a yard waste bag on the go and the other day I noticed a little lonely weed plant growing up through the stones. That spot gets almost no direct light, it is under the eves of my house so not a lot of rain, and the ground is mostly clay at that spot. I have no idea how it grew. Today it met an untimely end when someone thought it was an actual weed and pulled it. I cried a little to myself over the senseless loss of life.
 
I hope your next shot isn't as bad, or any worse. It sucks not being able to tend to your plants as you normally would.
 
That sucks it didn't get to finish, but if done fast it might could have been saved by sticking it back in the ground. I pulled up 3 plants and moved them, they did good and I had to many plants. So I pulled them a second time (in the heat this time) and moved them down by the creek, told my brother they are his just keep an eye on them, all 3 are now in flower and female.
 
Some other things going on here, my pear trees are giving up pears the first time in 15 or 20 years because the tree rats stole them. Cleaning up under one of the trees I found walking sticks, several sizes, wonderful! Next day I found praying mantis, with the tree rats thinned down these bugs now have a chance to survive here. I also found this year my big boy likes tree rats enuf he'll put up with the boom.
 
Here's my pre 98 Bubba Kush she's getting close to 7ft. and still growing. I've been tying her outward spreading branches. I snapped one like most do did'nt get a full break so i tied it up with that nursery rubber coated wire and some twine. Did not hurt her at all i have to look for the suture cause the branch showed no deadly droop. ;) She's in a 10gal. plastic pot with many drill holes. Drinking 3gals a day. Other big plant is just about 6ft not taking as much water but has full budlets forming. This Bubba is stacking preflower but no budlets, I think i said she was the one with budlets but she's not it's peanut butter breath with the budlets and she's a foot shorter than this kush. I'm blaming the heat for the buds not forming faster than this. No real bug damange so that's good and the smell is starting to come on. Just a matter of a week or so these gals are about to explode, I hope LOL:hard-laugh:

SoOrbudgal I think you helped with advice when I was picking these strains and when I snapped off half the manifold on the really tall plant - I am absurdly proud to show you how tall these ones got and how stinky the other two were (you probably recall huge and stinky were on my list of desirable traits for this summer grow).

Just before I harvested the Pineapple Express 2 (the two that immediately went into bloom when I put them outside) you could smell them through the entire neighbourhood. They didn’t get a ton bigger at that point but they did give 6 oz jarred weight. If these two (zkittlez) bloom properly they will put the other two to shame. I am hoping the bloom speeds up. Usually they start to bloom around end of July (which is a bit strange because the hours of daylight don’t come down to 12/12 until later) but they are still pretty early into bloom now. I picked them in part for short bloom cycle but the later than usual start to bloom might push me back into the danger zone for getting them harvested before cold wet weather takes over. I try to watch for bugs but they are so tall I can’t reach the top. Im going to need a step ladder to check the upper part. I’m 6’ 2” and when I reach as high as I can I don’t come close to the top and they are arguably in the bloom stretch right now amd could get bigger. I wonder what the tallest a plant might get is. I am ridiculously proud of their size - I’ve never had plants this tall (although I usually don’t let them grow naturally).

I was just considering giving them a spray with insecticidal soap before they develop any real buds. Do you think it is too late for that? I figure it will probably wash off long before it could be a problem to the buds and could give them a good start to the process.
 
From the plant thats hanging now, I find a praying mantis in the house. I reached for it and to my surprise it jumps into my hand and looks up at me. I take it outside and to the Bruce Banner 4, held it up to the plant and it crawls onto the bud.
The yard looks empty without all those big autos!
 
Spraying done. I needed a dang step ladder! There is definitely some bud growth visible now beyond pre-buds so I expect that will be the last time I can spray them before harvest. I really am ridiculously proud of the height but unless I get like 2 lbs per plant I may take steps to limit that height next summer. Needing a ladder to manage the top third of the plant is funny but means it won’t get inspected as often.

(the white stuff everywhere is just diatomaceous earth which I like to spray occasionally on the soil to keep away the fungus gnats)
