I appreciate the input, some one told me black pots are good for attracting the sunlight, maybe I should repaint them.They look healthy so far, purple petioles are common for any number of reasons. Black pots in direct sun on a hot day can cook the roots so be aware if leaves start to fade quickly. Good luck.
Luckily in southern Ontario we rarely go over 85f with the humidex, but we do have really humid weather. We’ve had rain for the passed 3 days, only just putting them under the make shift tent today to keep the soil from becoming water logged.I’ve checked pots on a 90°F day, the pot temp goes above 140° on my infrared thermometer. Rain, mine love it, as long as theres good drainage.
Thats what happens if the roots can’t feed her, she starts eating the food stored in the fan leaves.The girl in question is the bottom left hand corner.
That’s probably going to be my best option I’m thinking. As much as I was hoping to use these as the final pots it’s most likely the best option. Thanks for your input. this is only my second time having a grow.transplant to at least a 25 gallon bag..
i grow and live in southern ontario too.
around the first and second week of august i would soak them with milk on a hot sunny day. it’s good for them and prevents powder mildew..
it’s best to keep the plants in the windy part of the yard,
i’ve transplanted bigger plants than that easily just do it when the soil is dry, and be tall enough not to break the top off accidentally when turning upside down.,
No doubt, I do have the spray that the poster above mentioned but find that it stinks pretty bad, I’ll probably go with milk, I tried milk last year and it wasn’t bad, but it didn’t help by the time the plants were flowering and the pm was just to much. This season I’ll for sure try milk and water.i would still change up different sprays as it’s about changing the ph of the leaf surface,
don’t be afraid to use full strength milk, just soak them everywhere early on a blistering hot day. after a week or so change to a different spray.. but having them out in the open, windy air really helps.
that looks good, not close to other plants/trees/fences.. etc..No doubt, I do have the spray that the poster above mentioned but find that it stinks pretty bad, I’ll probably go with milk, I tried milk last year and it wasn’t bad, but it didn’t help by the time the plants were flowering and the pm was just to much.

they do stay in the middle of my lawn, I only brg them to the patio when it’s pouring rain.
At night I put them at the back of my lawn where the sun is first thing in the am, and as the day goes on, I move them across the lawn to keep them in direct sunlight
It does get pretty stale and muggy some days, but other days are pretty windythat looks good, not close to other plants/trees/fences.. etc..
hopefully you get good airflow/wind through there..
Any recommendations where to get 25glon bags online, also any where to order soil from, most garden centres around me are sold out of good soil.transplant to at least a 25 gallon bag..

are you near strathroy?Any recommendations where to get 25glon bags online, also any where to order soil from, most garden centres around me are sold out of good soil.
Also not sure how much soil I’d need to fill two 25g bags. I think I’d only transplant twice out of the 4.
thanks for your help, do appreciate it.
