Sorry for the lack of images on the group busy flowering but they haven't been too impressive, the purple Thai plants are smelling heavily like brewed coffee which is nice and the one destroyer plant I put into flowering is looking great, I'm more used to this type of structure and stretch than the more indica influenced plants, crystal coverage is beautiful for this early on in flower.

glad I managed to get the chicken wire on without any major decapitations.

Having a hard time keeping things under control, a bit worried that the plants are going to start flowering sooner than I think as they move towards the solstice. Two of them are pushing out a lot of preflowers and I don't want to start removing the growth tips as I don't want any additional outward expansion.
Needles to say I'm probably heading for monumental f@#k up here but I will definitely have enough to last me many a moon unless they all die of some disease..... So many possibilities, so many ways to screw it up.

Kitty love!! He's gonna make short work of the shade cloth with his claws, at least it's cheap and reasonably easy to replace.
Two of the destroyers have started changing over to a flowering structure, don't know what to make of it as it's not even mid February yet. I hope they are going to be a good smoke..... I really do.

i have a suspicion: the walls shadows do introduce some early flowers, wich will then stagnate, and it will finish normal timed.
I had a plant doing that when standing pretty in shady spot under trees, thats why i think thats the case

I was wondering the same if the structures around my house would play a factor in the amount of lumens the plant receives in the morning and the evening. They are starting to stretch a lot and I'm in two minds if I should cut them back a bit now as my vertical space is limited, really worried how much they will stretch as the one destroyer I just finished off in a pot did still triple in size even though it was topped.

well my plant then grew a just a tiny bit shorter than the others from same strain, it any, otherwise was unchanged.
But IF the walls have a CERTAIN HEIGHT and really block light COMPLEETLY (not like a tree with some rays shining trough) like on my other Spot (only recieved 4 hours midday sun) , then plants can stretch a bit more, grow thowards height, not square. You loose a bit yeald then.. And they will naturally be forced thowads height.

I'm quite lucky and the area gets good direct light throughout most of the day, I can also bend them if they get too tall I suppose but if the winds don't let up next month it's going to be very difficult protecting them if the get too long.

Guys, you have a wonderful garden! I see that you take care of your plants and they are in nice condition. I wish I could have the same garden in my backyard. Unfortunately, where I live right now we cannot grow weed, except for those who got a medical license for consumption. I wish I could grow my own plants in my garden like I used to do it back in time. I recently bought a nice outdoor lounge set on www.gardenfurniture.co.uk Everything looks nice and cozy. But only now I realized what is missing in my garden. It would be so nice to lie down on a couch outdoors and smoke a joint.

thanks huddson, this is my first real go at outdoors and I'm loving it so far, it's a bit tedious carrying the plants in and outdoors everyday, but it's allowed me to go through multiple strains flowered under good sunlight, now my growtent is just basically a dark chamber for them and I can grow out some Indica varieties under the 600watt hps during winter months in the tent. I too am very happy for the legal change here, otherwise my better half would never allow this madness!!
I'm going to have way more than I need but I need to find the effects I'm looking for and so far I have not been lucky...

I loved Cape Town, I stayed in the Malay quarter when I was there... so colourful. The general quality of food was some of the best as well. Probably the best seafood meal of my life was at a restaurant on the beach near Cape Town called Die Strandloper. It was about a 10 course meal cooked on open fires on the beach. So many different fish, and seafood it made my head spin. You had to pace yourself because every dish was so good you just wanted to keep eating. I would wander off between courses to sit on the beach and smoke joints and watch the waves roll in. It was magical. I hope it is still open.

Man I pretty much done with trying out these "sativa" dominant varieties, at best there is 30-40% sativa in them and their effects are so similar, I did the same thing over a decade ago thinking I'll find something worthwhile in these types of lines and I've always been disappointed, will be focusing more on the direction of what I need. Picked up a pack of scavenger's daughter and I'm pretty excited to see if there's something good in there, grow logs are non existent
