Summertime Blues? Not Round Here!

[rmoltis]

I was wondering where you went to

 

[MrRojos]

Suuuper busy brother and the signal fir my phone is non existent out here. Lol that pic took like a hour to upload onto here
.the ladies are swelling nicely man that one in the pic I just topped for the final time. I'll let them stretch all of July now. Should have around 150-250 nice tops:)
I'm taking bunch of pics and when I'm back in Denver I'll post a bunch

 

[MrRojos]

This strain is Kong..last topping session is done will stretch all of July growing to probably around about a 7-12 lb bush.
Snowed a lot this year so got a later start then usual but all is looking good now:)
She's in about a yard of soil aka 200 gallons. Soil mix is a 25% top soil 25%compost 20/20% spagnum/vermiculite.
Nothing but natural teas proud to say no nutrient company is getting my $$ this season :) will post more when back around civilization

 

[MrRojos]

Finally some sun..rain rain go away!:)

 

[MrRojos]

Orange juice from GGG..really musky lady so is the mendo breaths from GGG..just topped off this girl again might do it one more time to add more yield and keep the stretch to a minimum.
Bodhi gear looking great to will post pics soon.
It's still contested if people should top there plants or not,what a shame.

 

[MrRojos]

Hard to tell but I just counted and when the new shoots come out there will be as of now 112 nice top branches..still the rest of July though so will most likely do another topping session so should get around 224 tops give or take a few:)

Thanks brother super excited over here.. didn't get to do as many as usual this year was hectic..voodoo,wcsd,kong,oj,mendo breath,apalachian super skunk,blue dot,sour bubble,dream beaver,headband x lbl, snow temple all i got to run but I suppose could be a lot worse.lol
Sometimes less is more though and each plant is on schedule to be pretty damn big and I get to really pamper each lady so all is well.
Renovating my speed boat today would like to get her on the water asap.later bros :)

 

[MrRojos]

Bunch of hail today but no damage thank god:) really liking this voodoo by exoticgenetics can't wait to see them badass purple nugs.

 

[MrRojos]

Excited about this one already flowering pretty good:) won't be going with the soil company I used this year though I kind of got screwed by them.
Soil tailored for cannabis growth is lost on some folk and they were dishonest about there mix.Was to late to do much but even with sub part soil this one turned out pretty good.
This is the voodoo she's already stacking crystals and stinks to high heaven of purple skunky dank can't wait to see her finish.

 

[Seamaiden]

I've always done well using my guy upcountry, and I hate that I'll be losing access. He makes his organic mix for veggie growing, and it is FANTASTIC for cannabis. $33/yd.

Howdy, Mr. R. Some of my plants are just around the corner for flowering. Do you recommend more pruning, or is it time to let them go?

 

[MrRojos]

Hey bro congrats! Let them go now so they can stretch.saw your plants and you should be very proud!
@Seamaiden sorry to hear that.was a high clay content to this mix.I caught it the 1st time I watered but had already put 3 plants in a yard each. All my others I put into a better mix but I still feel like they jipped me.lol

 

[Seamaiden]

Heavy clay definitely holds these ladies back. I can see them doing better in a very sandy mix than too heavy with clay.

 

[MrRojos]

You are right it really does.I didn't notice it until I watered then was like ooohh shit!
Besides other things high clay is like a shield that doesn't allow the water/nutes to properly penetrate deep down.Hate seeing the ladies in there and to make it worse the 3 I put where the ones I had really prepped indoors.
When the kongs start flowering I'll post some pics.right now they are like 4foot tall and around a 8 ft canopy.They usually get way bigger.
Anyone near Trinidad colorado stay away from the plant nursery on main St by the uhual lol.
I had to spend a lot of extra $$ on peat,coir,vermiculite etc to make it worth a damn that if they would have been worth a damn I wouldn't have had to. At 55 a yard for crap id rather spend double for a good product.
Sound kind of petty maybe but when you know your ladies deserve better it hurts lol

 

[MrRojos]

GGG strain is Orange juice aka OJ
Thank god I only grew 2!!
Pot this stanky brings out rippers lol.
Very impressed with oj so far I got them as sickly little ladies around may 25th.. think we have a keeper:)
Props to GGG really liking your oj

 

[MrRojos]

Ill be putting in my "inverted" trellis and top trellis soon..
Have to protect against hail up here but with strong winds scared to trellis yet in fear of the plastic acting like a sail and sailing off with all my pot lol.
I'll remove the plastic from the top end of August then trellis.
I see outdoor grows where the ladies are wide out in the open and I think damn they're lucky!! Our hail is so destructive sometimes you really have to have everything covered up here. That with 40-70 mph wind gusts really makes growing up here hectic and preplaning is a must.

Thank you for taking a look and for your opinion, highly valued for the way you create and care for your canopies.

 

[MrRojos]

Thanks bro hell yours are gorgeous I love that pic with the bottle and that damn trunk so a compliment from you is badass:)
I love sculpting the plants:) many of benefits especially depending the growers climate...mine is very low humidity so no worries of over crowding/development of bud rot type problems..
Also I try to get it so every bud on the plant is as great as the next with as less undeveloped buds as I can get.
When they are short,stout,wide and the bush is trellised the high winds aren't as likely to damage them.
Definitely enjoy this time of year am truly blessed to be in this type of situation:) Thanks you guys much respect to all you dudes

 

[MrRojos]

Mendo breath I got when got the oj pretty smelly stuff to when start flowering I'll remove more of the inner growth haven't trellised yet either due to aforementioned situation
