TheBaker Posted August 27, 2023 Author Share Posted August 27, 2023 Good evening everyone. Its only been a few days since the last update, and they are tipping along nicely. Heck , i thought id throw up a little more visual stimulus to add to everyone elses great work. Revive Thanks for the nudge on the ties, i got straight onto it. No soft ties, so i improvised with a wrap of inner bike tube(I use inner tubes and wire for binding everything around the place) and will adjust every few days. Thanks again! They seem to be all getting ready to rock and roll into flowering. Can i ask your thoughts on feeding the photos coming into flower? I just have enough mills nutes to get the two autos fed to the end, and have been giving the photos a feed of Iguana grow at 3ml/lt, along with nettle tea and worm bin runoff tea at 20mls each per 10 lt. They all could do with about a 1lt of top dressing to invite a few roots up. Within this top dress i place a pinch each(1/4 teasp) of bonemeal, marl, and fbb. No adverse affects and they seem ok with it. Could i put 30-40 grammes of SOP through this mix for the beginning of flowering? Is there an option to dilute the SOP and water in on a certain timeline? I will scoot off and grab some bloom nutes for that extra leg up if suggested. Tia Baked Ill shoot this post on and follow up with photos when i can upload them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBaker Posted August 27, 2023 Author Share Posted August 27, 2023 Quick note on that last post. I had no choice but to leave the wire on the Flc for these two broken branches that had not fully healed, and let it consume it. Amazing really. The two Watermelon(strangely nose blind on which strain this is ) cuttings are putting on a lot of weight, looks like they have the potential to be a decent cola of bud. The Lemon Haze auto stem is like re-bar, there is virtually no movement at all in it. Have a nice evening! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aphatspliff Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Looking nice n healthy dude. If you go on eBay and search ‘soft rubber tubing’ you can get a 5m length for just over £11. The thinner and more flexible the better, won’t restrict and go cutting into your branches then 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBaker Posted August 28, 2023 Author Share Posted August 28, 2023 Evening folks The few photos this eve, will show you, that im as lucky as a cut cat, and will hopefully help at the end of the season. The hedgerow space has allowed me to fit a canopy 9ft x 7ft, very basic, covered with 500 guage polly(its light, hence the pots to create tension) it has worked out really well, no cost as i had the few bits around the place, but it would be minimal. The lashings of rain, that are most certainly going to arrive at some point, can go be, i can tuck the 6 of them underneath this. Just trying to stack all the odds and hope for a good October, after that really poor July. It felt like an age for the Maff to come up to the training wires on the willow, surging past now. The stretch is right on. It is scenting up strongly, and so so nice. Forgot the photo of the Flc consuming the wire, and a team shot. Have a nice evening Baked 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murphyblue Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 You can get the soft wire mate in cheap shops like bnm pound land cheap as chips I go through loads of the stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBaker Posted September 3, 2023 Author Share Posted September 3, 2023 Good evening, I hope this finds you all well. This year i am getting to realize the exciting(and weather nervous) build up time too, what is,October harvesting. Last year i was wrapped up the middle of September with autos, lip hanging with no plants to tend. Not this season though, with a bit of luck and mother nature playing nice, my ass is going to be busy taking down a good few plants in roughly 7-8 weeks. Gez, when i say it..... Missed a bit of an elephant in the room, after growing a few dozen autos,that it passed me by just how much bigger these photos are going to be, finished. Am i concerned? Only the scent, on a small percentage of days(N Westerly). Just a side note, bring it on Its nice to have a bit of growth to show in the progress photos. Everything here is flying along, maybe a hungry plant or two, as i didnt own last week at all with a surreal week of life (F all is handy everyone, be kind to yourself, first and foremost). This is a "Play it again Sam" about these genetics, amazing plants to grow, i cannot wait to try different vars next season @panik I didnt get to label the photos. The circular trellis holds the Maff, the straight trellis holds the Flc, the slim leaf is The 7, the broad leaf is the Mighty Freeze, The re-bar LHA is really strutting its thing altogether, i believe its only thinking of going into flower now, and the 3 headed LHA is heading towards 4 weeks in flower. Oh, and the two cuttings, ive officially lost it, they are Hulkberry, not Watermelon, dont ask me, i dont know how tf i couldnt put a name and scent together. Until i had to chop out some rot, its well sticky with trichs and it dawned then. Anyway , i hope my looseness to that didnt age anyone, a hundred years.. they still both look like a potentially good cola. Have a great one! Ill shoot this on and follow... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBaker Posted September 9, 2023 Author Share Posted September 9, 2023 (edited) Hi all, its a middle of the night burn, going to head out to the gg plot at sunrise, so as i updated that thread after a feed drop, i thought id update this also, over a very strong coffee All going really good, again trying to get the feeding back on track. The Maff is a hungry girl, nearly there. I think it could be a legacy from feeding autos less in caparison, and then maybe underfeeding the photos(And that f n week gone by. I will also echo the regular sentiment here, that this community, really, really helped me through that period by just being on here in the background. I cant overstate this!) Delighted i decided to keep a few lates ones in the hedgerow, haha , hedging in the hedgerow. Hopefully this canopy will hedge the bets a bit more, when the inevitable rain eventually arrives sideways at us, and i can pamper them as well as possible. Just on repeat here, and will continue.These genetics are just so much fun to grow, and i cannot wait to consume them. The LHA re-bar , is still a growing like a demon, its straight stacked shape is hypnotizing. Has a mid Nov finish written all over it. The LHA triple header is going grand, i think i have the PM under control, at about 5 weeks flower. The Flc is really filling out the trellis, this form really makes it explode outwards. Well, it is the FLC :). Both the MFbx1 and The7 are just trooping along not a care in the world. Thats a wrap for now, all you good folks. Have a good one!

TheBaker Posted September 10, 2023 Author Share Posted September 10, 2023 Good evening all A bit of musical chairs, seeing what fits where the best, with the rains on the way. Another foot or so both ways on the canopy would have given me a better footprint of cover, always looking for a bit more :)... My brain needs some order of plants in and out of their same perch each time, it might be a good practice for some light dep next year. Theres a fair difference between lifting most of the autos that were in 10-12lt pots to 16-20 lt photos, that i probably should have gone larger. I can see how those little dollies would be ideal if the ground was right. Happy that i can keep the rain off their heads and stack the odds as best i can, whatever lifting needs doing. They will have to get comfortable with this huddle for the foreseeable. Take care! Baked 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBaker Posted September 13, 2023 Author Share Posted September 13, 2023 Hi there everyone. Quick update on the hedgerow. Things are going along ok, other than a hungry Maff, im not killing them, yet. Added willow to both the MF and The7 to try give the branches their own little footprint to grow in. Anyway less sh1te talk and more photos. Take care. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBaker Posted September 15, 2023 Author Share Posted September 15, 2023 Happy Friday everyone. I need to apologize for that last sentence. Poor etiquette on my part. Aimed solely at myself for jabbering on. No excuse, sorry. Back to brevity and some shots, to add to the amazing stuff being grown here, throughout all of the weathers adversarial swipes. Its been raining for 24hrs now, with another good few to go . The only plus, ive got this evening, amidst the downpours is, that not a drop, fell on the hedgerow girls. Its the best odds stacking thing i can do for the next six or seven weeks i think. The weather is looking brutal for the next few days, they ll be staying put. The Maff is still hungry out, an amazing structure( They all have!), it will be a quick an interesting learning, how to keep a big photos in approx 16-20 lt of soil, happy as long as possible. Both, The 7 and the MF, responded well to the bit of training.I had no set time to do this(bushy stage), but i found, with the bit of stretch and the stems getting firm, helped open up the structure a bit more. The Flc, is the FLC! We are all going to run out of words eventually, to describe this beauty. The LHA, Re-bar, has me double taking its form, theres something about it, and finally in flower. Mid Nov, if it makes it, is very new territory. The LHA triple head is looking good , although i have had to start cutting out mould, feels like July again :(. Keep chopping and pushing as Oldford says. The cuttings of the Hulkberry are down and curing, as they began to melt with rot, 90 wet grms from both, so definitely worth the effort. Would i do a lot of cuttings now? Im reconsidering just a few, as i think by the time my "list"( i realize the list problem now!!) gets done for next year, there wont be room for a fart in the breeze. Thats all for now folks. Wishing everyone the luck, that has been afforded to me. Take care Baked 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBaker Posted September 19, 2023 Author Share Posted September 19, 2023 Hey there everyone. A wee update on the hedgerow. All going ok, but its tricky in this poor weather, as they stall and drink little, so any feed due gets pushed for a day or so. In general, im very happy that they are growing fairly well. The LHA triple head has about 2 weeks left, i doubt the dampness will let me run it that far. If an early chop, this plant is destined for a cob, in my head. Just realized there were rodents eating some of the stems here also. Trying to keep on top of the hungry Maff. It has a lot of growth for only 16-18 lt of medium (Indicanna jones, laughing at me with 18lt of soil to play with :)). Feed for the plants is running at 4ml bloom, 2ml grow, per liter, iguana. The few upshots, which i love, are more so to admire the blue skies Wishing you all the best , getting your harvest home and dry! Take care Baked 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
