45º P outdoors

Thanks, littlemountain. No ir on these, they send out a bunch of these little NG helicopters with troopers looking for large grows. Like I mentioned, when they found some across the road from me they had a crew of soldiers and they filled a large stake truck.

I grew Blueberry earlier this season indoors and it's great smoke. This female is different as it took many weeks longer to show sex (there were two males that did this also). Buds are starting to fill up quick, but our grow season is ending as the first frost occured last night not far from here. Pot does very well as far as surviving in the cool but it doesn't put on the bud weight so well when it's cool and cloudy.

Shovelhandle- I have been fighting caterpillars for some time now and this morning saw a plant that looked like it had been shot with a shotgun- I found I found one snail on the plant- how did you finally resolve this issue on your plants ?
Yuo mentioned frost soon- I was on this site before as Clovisman and thouht I remember you as an old southern boy ! am i wrong
I had one of my Blueberry's hermie like hell this week -had great buds all over it -a real shame- GOOD LUCK for the rest of the season on your grow

I used SLUGGO this year. Sprinkled it around the plants and it seemed to keep the slugs partially at bay. But they still killed about 10 of 12 10inchers I had put out in June. Luckily the larger BlueCityDiesel and Purps were established enough to stay healthy and are doing great. I've found much joy in severing the slugs with my pruners this year. The guts just ooze out.

Hopefully the snail season is getting done. The plants are 4-5 ft and putting on lots of bud. Sorry, my photos suck so bad I don't want to post 'em at three weeks since flower. I'll try again to get some good bud shots as they grow and ripen over the next 5-6 weeks. I still have to wait for the pollen to pop and wait four more weeks for the seeds to ripen after that. I plan to pollinate just a couple of bottom branches.

Joefarmer- I also am a photographer - have been pro for 25 years plus now-
how many film cameras do you have in your closet?

I visited the loal greenhouse and they had many good ways of dealing with the snails/slugs. They are much less active now so I'm leaving 'em.

The two Z10 are so big and healthy they really stand out now. So, it put a few branches of other stuff in with the herb to camo. Well, one o the plants took and busted right over! I took it and lay it down and leave it. It seems that the plant was girdled back in it's beginnings and a scar greaw right where it busted, all the way around with the middle vessels holding on. A day later that plant didn't look so happy. I splinted the break and used wax to seal the wound. No camo-branches on this one now, but it is not noticable at all right now as the leaves and colas are mostly hangin down. Wet day today, perfect weather for recovery.

I got ripped off again. All three plants, as hidden as they were. I"ve had this happen so many times I'm totally amazed how someone can find them. May their livers ROT!

Another season is here. I'm determined not to bother planting outdoors because of my perfect record of getting ripped. I'm starting four feminized Neville's Haze (not Mr Nice, like I have indoors). This NH is pretty indica dominant.

Anyway, I was walking the dog out where I started some Blueberry last year but not near any of the three plants in this thread. If I remember correctly either the plant in this location was a male, or a female that I moved or something. Either way, I missed something. Now with all the overgrowth gone I can see HUNDREDS of seedlings! That plant somehow pollinated and seeded. I've wanted this to happen as I've planted in dozens of places across New England. Problem is, I never get back to some places, most places don't 'take', and even more I forget about. This is pretty cool! :smokin:
