One of my phenos of Pine Tar Kush was the strongest pine aroma I have ever experienced! Easy to see how it got its name. Hope you get one like that!

A storm came through with heavy rains and the snapped a main top branch no saving it anythin, I am definitely gonna have to get netting up. Thank goodness for the netting I put in place when they was younger the only thing holding everything up

This is the results of not having netting in place before hand, I had a support net at the bottom but never got around to putting a middle 1 on or a top 1 but next season I am gonna have nets in place at the bottom middle and top

I really like using 5 ft tall by 3 ft diameter concrete remesh cages, wired to a T post. If the plants get big I add 2 more T posts and put 10 foot PVC pipes over them and then tie off with garden tape. I have had some of these cages for 20 years.PXL_20240730_181109761.jpgPXL_20240730_181051029.jpg

All of my 100gal bags have wire cages around em but they grow well past em I think it’s 4ft fence? I don’t remember but I try to put fence on the top as well like a scrog and it helps with the 100gal bags but I got these pine posts for the 200 gals I got lazy and didn’t finish putting nettin up this whole problem could of been avoided if I just went out and finished putting the nets up, 3 layer scrog type setup, but good news I got everything taped back together the best I can I only lost 1 half of 1 plant I’m goin bsxk out this evening to put netting up around everything

I should have everything completely netted up by tomorrow night, it goes by rather quickly once I get started doin it, idk what’s worse doin it in the sun or in the evening and gettin ate up by skeeters

Looking good Low Key, That concrete remesh wire also comes in 7' rolls and you use that to make 7' cages...best of luck

Thank ya jj, I probably wouldn’t be having as big of plants as I do if it wasn’t for yours and a few others threads but that’s what I need! Would lowes or Menards have it or the local farmer type store, I don’t think I’ve seen that type at my Lowe’s just regular fence types, is it also called hog wire?

Thank you bro. Your garden is looking great this year. The wire is called remesh wire and comes in different widths of rolls. You will find it in the concrete and masonry section. You may have to shop around to find the 7' rolls. They also sell it in 4x8 flat sheets, you can use 4 of the 4ft sheets to make a 8ft tall square box if you need it taller than 7ft, or you can always telescope 2ea 7ft pieces one inside the other and extend it out to 10ft tall or taller if necessary. ;) Keep up the good work. :eyesmoke:

Same here in Missouri, the handful of spots I looked at during the spring had shit that was maybe waist or chest high, same with the fence posts I couldn’t find the tall ones just these small ones, but I managed to get everything fixed and caged up with minimal loss!

How’s your Pineapple Chunk dealing with septoria? I’m currently running Peyote Cookies, Pineapple Chunk, Moonshine GTH, Cannatonic, and Charlottes Web. My area has a horrrrrrible septoria outbreak (on all surrounding vegetation and trees). Just started noticing septoria on my plants a week ago, the pineapple chunk is doing considerably well suppressing it though..gonna keep an eye on it and if so that’s the strain i’ll be growing outdoors for now on

You should pollinate a cola of that Pineapple Chunk! Sometimes it is the individual plant that is resistant, not necessarily the strain. I'm growing a couple of children of my most resistant plant from last year and they have virtually no spots, even though plants right next to them have quite a few!

I may take some clones from the lower branches! I don’t have access to any pollen…that’s awesome!!

Pineapple chunk and a handful of other are handling it pretty well actually, there’s maybe 3 that’s struggling but they’re fighting but everything else is handling it pretty well
