Another heat wave here in Virginia, going to be around 100° the next 3 days. Oh well, just means I'll be watering twice a day along with spraying the outside of the pots several times a day. Greenhouse is getting pretty crowded, just the way I like it. Most got what will hopefully be the last topping before flower. The Cretan landraces look like they are already trying to flower and got their flowering top dress a few days ago. The hybrids will get theirs this weekend after the heat wave. Was hoping to not top my Napali Highland semi dwarf but looks like I'm either going to have to top or move it out of the greenhouse. It has a sort of natural camouflage so maybe. My Cretan landrace in the ground is around 7' and still growing. The Napali in the ground is driving me crazy because it still hasn't shown sex. Man im digging this retirement thing. I can just fart around the garden and greenhouse all day. 20260715 09523420260715 093134theNapaliHighland

Good question. Are you growing outdoors and what medium are you using? I usually only let my indoor plants get around 2 to 3 feet. Also I've been growing for 5 years now and my first year or so I didn't have plants looking this good.

If you're growing in organic soil you need something bigger than 2 gallons. In organic soil the plants get nutes from the soil and not a bottle so small pots run out of nutes quickly and need to be replaced with bottled nutes or top dressing. Indoors i use 7 or 10 gallon pots and use at least 20 gallons outdoors. Small pots work best with coco and daily fertigation.

And if you put that in a larger pot it with the same regime, it would be a monster. BTW, where are the roots? Just because they're not in the container doesn't mean they don't count. Also you gotta include all the containers of liquid and pumps, that counts as your pot. Stop trying to pull a fast one. The footprint of that plant is not a solo cup.

I grow with organic soil in 3-5 gallon pots, depending on my plant numbers..these are 3 because I have 12....but I also topdress with 4-4-4 before flower then at 30 days 3-9-4 and at 40 days 3-9-4..
I always mix my topdress with compost and ewc's, break up the soil, mix and water
