that's to funny. How did this plant turn up and end up being a monster and you just noticing it now? and why do you need to get rid of it, you could try to transplant it to another location.
:S5:

He did break a few branches - noticed that this morning. So my mum asked and I just ignored, I'm fearing the worst when he comes next week.......
Transplant sounds good will it work? Any idea how big/long the roots will be?
Offer to share it with the gardener he could be usefull to you if he tokes.:hippy:
I agree with green...employ the gardner.
Dive:stoned:
yea.. you shouldve explained your situation b4 automatically assuming you had to get rid of. Tell him that it's nowhere near done and if he let's mature yall will both have enough bud to enjoy through spring and early summer. either that or take the risk of transplanting a plant that has already started flowering.
id be happy that the gardener might even be a bud smoker
yea i say negotiate with the gardener. It might be fun to smoke with him!
Spoke to him yesterday - he is cool with waiting and sharing , The problem is my MUM, When she did not know what plant it was, all was fine but now that she knows I'm pretty sure all she wants to do is chop chop :(Quote:

Some updated pics - Buds are still looking small :(
there is what's called the 60/40 phenomena. it basically says that once a plant starts to flower it spends the first 60% of the time stretching (growing) and the last 40% fattening up the buds.
-shake
looking good... if your mom says something about it again you could have the gardener say he mistakened it for marijuana.. LOL.. iuno.. I think that was real dumb of him to mention it in the first place tho..
good luck tho.. its looking pretty good
ThanksQuote:

Just a quick pic update..
ps. anyone know why in the first pic, the two branches have different colour leaves? The one on the right has a much darker green compared to the one on the left.
cheers...
Hi....
Some close up pics of the buds.
Can't really tell with the digital camera if the trichs are milky, gonna try and get a scope or something like it this weekend.
Cheers

June is the start of our winter over here but temp does not go below 0c so I'm sure I can leave them for 4 more weeks.

Pic 1 is of one of the lower branches(very close to the ground)
2 - Is the Main Branch/Top
A few pics from this morning,
Just cant seem to take decent pics of the entire plant.
1st pic is the top bud
2nd the lowest bud
cheers
A few pics attached of the lower branch that broke off :( Most probably broke off on its own but there is a slight chance it could be the kids playing ball in the garden. Its 20inches long. Pity it did not have the time to "Fatten" up.
Early tester,dry it and smoke it.:jointsmile:
Was it broke totally from the stem if not you might have been able to fix it.:hippy:
Agree early tester :jointsmile:, and yes it was broken totally.Quote:

Haha, nice thread! I just started reading it, and I remembered that I threw out some seeds about a week ago into our backyard "forest" (behind our backyard there's a hill with tons of plants and trees growing). After looking around for a few minutes, I found a couple of MJ plants already sprouting out of the ground!! Hilarious! I know it's MJ because I had a successful indoor grow last year and I know what the little guys look like.
I think I'm gonna leave them and see what happens. No one ever goes out back there...ever, so it's a perfect spot. The seeds are from mids, but that's what I used last year indoors and the product was spectacular.
How long ago do you think you threw the seeds into your yard? And does anyone have an idea of how long a very basic outdoor grow would take from start to harvest? If the seeds started sprouting today, would I need to wait until the fall to harvest?
Hi, I would have thrown them out end of December - So thats already 6months with minimal fertz (basic outdoorfertz) and Molasses in the last week.Quote:

@Bigtopsfinn - Thanks
Cant wait to harvest in about 3-4 weeks.
id just smoke a small sample and make hash out of the rest (with what broke off that is).. since what broke off didnt get time to fatten up I wouldnt even take the time to dry, trim, and cure.
Getting any rain there yet?
No, nothing in the last month or so, Its now winter and temps are around 78F during the day and around 36F at night (should get a little colder during the night soon).Quote:
