I'm glad to hear Pilav has continued growing. I'm hoping MIQ continues growing like she has been. And, I'm really looking forward to new pics of Pilav! It's nice watching her grow, and it helps me relax a bit - taking my mind off MIQ and her growth. I hadn't thought about the high sativa content of Pilav; I should have noticed how thin her leaves are. I've been chomping at the bit to try a good sativa. I figure I'll get a few more grows under my belt before trying one. I bet she is going to rock your world!

MIQ is doing well. Her pistil development really seems to have slowed down, but her buds seem to be elongating, so I'm guessing she'll begin to develop pistils again as she plumps up. I gave her another dose of Super Bloom today, and hopefully it won't rain to flush her bucket, so the bloom nutes will have a chance to hit her system. But, I still don't have any beans yet. They should show up this week, if they make it through the blockade. However, I did get some bagbeans from my bro-in-law. He and my sister are actually germinating a few too. I'm looking forward to what these beans will do - my 4 are popping and should be ready for jiffy pellets tomorrow. Luckily I'm far enough south that I shouldn't have a problem starting another outdoor grow this late in the season.

Crazy how insects/arachnids can find their way into just about anywhere. I have not done much research on good v. bad insects/arachnids, but is a spider a bad thing to have around your plant, as I figure it may eat all of the bad bugs?

Be good out there, my friend!
