So which of these is meant to be the least smelly, hypothetically?Never heard of Devon Cream (unlikely to being up in Lancashire!), but strains that have been acclimatised are what you need. Got some purple marocs, easy sativas, hashplant 2, Purple Widow, and Danish Gold outdoors this year. Hoping for a good few oz come Octobernot had any losses yet
) cannabis growing site, look at grow diaries, see other peoples experiences of the strains you're interested in, see if any are based in same area as you and when they started to flower.
Apologies in advance as I know this has probably bindun to excess already and UTFSE etc, but I've got 12 very healthy looking plants growing in a home-made cold frame type affair outside at the moment. Basically, I'm looking for 'stealth' tactics as I need to keep the little fuckers as little and as out of sight as possible until harvest time. Obviously, inside under lights is the answer, but funds won't allow the initial investment at the moment. Anyone have any tips on reducing height growth so that I can keep them in their current sunny but not overlooked position? I'm aware that pinching out the growing tips helps stunt the vertical growth, but this can also force the plants to become male if overdone.
I know this is a massive subject and everyone's got a differing opinion, but for any of you that have successfully grown under similar limitations I would really appreciate your input.
Cheers..
Did you travel in time?
It's probably a hybrid indica sativa as most commonly sold seeds are now, and is probably 8-9 weeks flowring time....
Tying them down, hard training them will not affect potency...get a screen of chicken wire and a frame, and as the plant starts to flower start tying in the buds withthem little tie wraps....pinch out any internodes and buds below the screen, channeling all the energy into the buds growing from the screen. easier trimming too.
Rootboundedness will affect the yield far more. Use the biggest pots you can find, this period just before flowering is when the rootmasss explodes and gives the plant the ability to take in enough nutrients and water to produce bud. Root development slows down and eventually stops during flowering, but before they flower pot them up every time the roots are filling your container/growing medium.
If the leaves are fat they are likely indicas (7-10weeks flowering) rather than sativas, which is good as sativas (13-20weeks flowering)will never finish flowering inthis country before the frosts come, maybe in polytunnels it could be done
5-10mm internodal spacing sounds a bit too short to me, could be a symptom of them being rootbound...a stocky plant is nice, easy to handle, but overly stocky restricts space for bud to grow, and increases your chances of mildew.
If the leaves are "deformed" you may be overfeeding them, are they curling in at the tips and edges?
you really have to pot up.....growth explodes during the first week or two of flowering anyway, with plants easily stretching to twice their height/size for indicas, and sativas even more. And don't feed them for at least a week after you've pottted up, wait till you can see roots throughthe holes in thepot.
Look, when you've run out of smoke, even a placebo effect is welcome
