Put my little outdoor garden into it's tentatively final position. Will switch to bigger pots next year, but for now, this is a test run. I need to see what plants get the best light to adjust positions. Got the girls into 10gal pots and trimmed up the bases. Will have pics of the greenhouse shortly after I do some work in it. Next step, support structures all around. All but one of the fem tops are docked, this promotes multiple top colas and the wind breakage of weak whiplike center stalks. The reason for the small Jack Herer (lower left) not being top docked, if I don't wait until they're larger the top brances will be too mature during flower becoming extremely heavy & brittle, then prone to breakage.

The trees and clones are all in. ScrOG nets will go up next, then lollypop cages. I believe this combination of tree and ScrOG will give me an optimal balance of light penetration and surface area. If my idea works each clone will form a conical shape with the branches from the base at the tip. This is a shot in the dark because cannabis is highly adaptive and I've seen it shift a 2ndary stalk to it's primary when LST caused conditions that favored it. This whole run is an experiment in growth patterns that I haven't seen done before in a single contiguous garden. The idea has been banging around in my head after seeing two types of load balancing in new AMD and Intel tech. AMD's new laptops have CPUs & GPUs that overlap in function so if one is maxed the other can pickup the extra workload. Some new Intel CPUs combine PC and ARM (mobile) architecture into one hybrid CPU , with the little ARM cores doing the light work (web-browsing & streaming) and the PC cores doing the heavy lifting (gaming & productivity work). It got me thinking on how I might be able to get a heavier, higher quality harvest and what elevation pattern would provide as much surface area to the canopy as possible with a minimal obstruction of direct light. Im hoping to increase the yield by 50% or more.

Hit the girls with Triazicide yesterday. The fresh green border with no freckles show it worked on the spider mites.

Downtown turned into outdoor dining. I've gotta go visit the beer-garden.

Sorry folks, had to abandon the grow. I'll just say my grow partner and I had irreconcilable differences and I'm out looking for a piece of land to buy for myself, hopefully. I think it may be time to leave the area anyway, half the town was evacuated this last week due to the Jones fire that threatened to turn us into the next Paradise.

Over 500 fires started in Cali from one set of dry lightning storms that moved through last Monday.

I will try to have a garden going next spring but I'll need a well and septic first on whatever parcel I purchase.
