Thanks for the advice. I'm definitely going to follow it, I've just been busy. I haven't even watered them for a couple weeks, but its been raining enough for them. I may just stick them in their final pots in a few weeks, with extra drainage holes, ventilation, and perlite.

A National Guard helicopter was slowly flying/hovering over some prime growing land about 2 miles away from my grow spot yesterday. They definitely were looking for something. It made me a little nervous, but what can you do? I'm planning on finishing these babies in pots, not in the ground. I know that makes them easier to spot, but to be honest I figure if a helicopter flys over my grow spot looking for cannabis, I'm fucked regardless. I want them in pots because I want to be able to move the males once they flower, but keep them alive so I can harvest seeds this year.

The National Guard along with the local sheriff pulled up a grow with 35,000 plants in a National Forest not far from the one I'm in a few weeks ago. They're on the hunt down here, that's for sure. Hopefully they won't spot my 8 plants as easily.

If they do spot and pull my grow, I just hope they don't catch me in the process... and that they get twice as many spider, chigger, and tick bites as I've gotten down in that God-forsaken swamp.
