It may not even be necessary for spots with smaller/less plants.

Strolling...

There's a private walkway where I take my dog walking sometimes. It just happens to be across the way from one of my spots. Some binoculars and a camera mean I don't have to climb the hill or get my feet wet getting to the plants, or worry about being seen anywhere near them.



As you can see they do stand out a little, brighter green. But they dont stick out too much atm.
There are 4 plants at this location, 3 are visible, the last is smaller and harder to spot.

Lets see how long it takes others to spot them in this pic.

Hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend.

B is for bait

So I visited the bait plot for the final time before harvest.
Here it is when I arrived.



Here it is when I left...



As you can see there are a couple of deficiency/under-watering issues which I'll go into later.



I decided to stick with the original plan and take another round of clones for CS, in an attempt to keep the genetics. I'm far from confident but hopeful that I will get to harvest these girls.



Other than that Im sure I can find somewhere in here to string up a few plants? This is near the "bait" and "hillside" plots



Will give a more detailed update when I have time.
Peace...

Deficiency diagnosis




This is a Pineapple chunk - as this receives water only when it rains it Im putting it down underwatering, because I could see that this plant really wanted to GROW! With regular waterings I reckon this plant would be mean! As it is... it is what it is... any other diagnosis?

And then there's the Frisian Dew



Any Ideas? Under-watering too?

The State of the "Bait"

There was much to be said of this spot, I have learned alot about each strain at this site. My set-up and execution has some security issues so alot will need to go right for this spot to be successful - for me anyway...



Apart from the odd passion vinehopper they have all remained pretty much pest free. I know they have a while to go yet, so we'll wait and see how they fare until somewhere around 4/20.

I have given them one last little prune, mulched the area, And sprayed with a neem-water mix. If I was onto it I would have taken something to sprinkle on the plants - for flowering. Ah well, dont want them getting too big ay? insert tui logo here

I decided on leaving the cages on, more for support purposes than protection at this stage, it gets windy around here and I didnt want to have to stake them after I uncaged. Would others do it this way? More stealth without? But maybe come back to plants lying on the ground?

It was after looking at the pictures that I saw a fundamental error I had made in the establishment of this plot, I didnt mulch. It would be now that some say yeah... too busy taking pictures. This one action, one that I did eventually do after 4-5 visits. It took me less than 5 minutes to scrape up.Who knows if the plants, that are now showing some deficiencies, would be in better condition. Anyways hindsight... lesson learned. They plants look a bit better blended too.

As any guerilla site, these girls are 100% available to any who find them. If I return and these are still here... otherwise... its been real, hopefully get a few minis to finish and/or some seeds.

So to the "bait" plot we say sayonara, see ya later, farewell. Hope to see your buds in April.

Things are looking pretty good all and all.
Good call on the mulch, better late than never. Maybe next time plant some short grass seed or clover to green up the area after preparing the spot.

Best of luck with a safe harvest and may all your Buds be Huge

Peace GG

Thanks man - Yep I like the idea of growing some cover plants. Might get some seed I can throw down around plants next season. Does clover germ well that way?

All spots are first time I've used them and I want to keep everything minimal till I have a couple of good spots to really work on.

Clover works well, just sprinkle a handful around. Not sure if its available down under.
Just do some research with whats available and works well there.

Clover, lupins mustard seed all work really well as ground cover. Also returns nitrogen back into the soil. Plants are looking awesome man.
