Here's a picture of me watering in one of the bad plants with the regalia mixture. I also costed the soft rotten area with sulphur dust.

Fucking amazing man!

You are drenching with Regalia? I've only sprayed with it. Though out up to harvet?

 

[MendoGiantZ]

Yeah I'm drenching the plants with the stalk rot around the edges of the bags with about 5 gallons.

 

[MendoGiantZ]

The other garden is getting really big. Probly shoulda gave a little more space between the pots.

Seems like it's gonna be a late year for me. The blue dreams and the cherry pies make up a majority of both gardens and it looks like they still have a good 6 weeks to go

looking great buddy mendo have you ever grown mendo purps ?? if so would you know what light hrs they started to flip Dam showing no signs yet A 13.2 hrs i believe the cherry pie last year were pretty much flipping about now so just curious if you have and what natural light hrs was it it when it started thanks bud

 

[MendoGiantZ]

I have grown a lot of purps in my day... The purps is a heavy indica and in the emerald triangle it usually finishes the first week of october.. Not sure about where you are or what strain you usually have but it should be well into flowering by now...

 

[Purpletrain]

Normally in my neck of the woods they start to flip first week of sept Northern Alberta my cherry pie last year was in first week of sept i am hoping is see something by end of this week if not lol
I might be digging the bitch out to finish her off i cannot light dep it would be noticed pretty quick by others

My blue dreams are also looking very late. It's my first attempt at blue dream. Wishing us both luck.

 

[MendoGiantZ]

I kinda wish mine would speed up as well. Oh well not much u can do but just role with the punches. I hope we get a good October with lots of sunshine

Next time you plant these late finishers, restrict their root zone. That causes faster onset of flowering, quicker set of flower, and faster finishing IME.

 

[MendoGiantZ]

I want them to be monster plants.. Wont that restrict how big they get??

 

[Seamaiden]

Yes, it will. But do you want to have to worry about harvesting in December?

 

[MendoGiantZ]

They will be ready in mid to late October depending on the weather we get and when I want to cut them down. Last year I had blue dreams in 100, 200 and a couple three hundred gallon pots and all of the dreams were ready at the same time. Size of the pot didn't make a difference. I had a couple little ones in 15 gallon pots where I had one die from stalk rot and it was done a week earlier or so but I think it was from not getting enough water made it finish a little earlier

 

[MendoGiantZ]

We have been watering less and really making an effort to keep the water off the stalks when we fertilize. We have only lost one plant this year and there are 2 more plants that are kinda iffy but I seem to have the stalk rot under control. We have used regalia. Heritage G. And Micro sulphur powder on the soft rotting spots to suck the moisture out. Things are really big this year and they are all looking really good. I really miss the blackberry headband cross I have grown the last couple years. The seed variety I tried this year just isn't as good.

I've had plants in my raised bed that weren't finished til damn near Thanksgiving. I did not like it!
