Growing tree's in a tree

[Mojosodope]

With all due resepect, I hope that these plants are not to high up in a tree. Anything over 7ish feet is not gonna have that much of a chance of surviving or producing anything worth while.

It can be done, but you need to do a ton more securing to what you got. If its not the wind, it will be the wildlife.

I have seen great grows in a tree house with its roof cut off. Perhaps that is something feasible for ya.

All the Best~

Thanks for the advice, but I've got them held down with bonding cement glue (used to hold structure's together) and also the vines tied tight around it, as far as the pest go I'll just have to keep my head up on that one. Might put some chicken wire and more support rope's once they're really budding.

i only veg for 3 weeks or so, you can still get some good bud with short vegs
a few others have done it with impressive results, others have struggled, you'll have earned whatever you get

Yea I get whatever I get, I just like to grow them. But do you have any suggestions to increase bud potential and/or growth??

i believe you mentioned you're in Venezuela? i'm kind of surprized you're seeing flowering so quickly
the one thing that comes to mind is bigger pots
more dirt, bigger plants, this can of course can be a problem when having to haul stuff up a tree

Yea it was weird to me too, but I'm 95% sure it's due to the lack of sunlight from all the other branches. The pot's they're in are gonna be they're permanent pot's (3gal's), but hopefully since they won't get very big it will be enough.

3 gallons should be good, rule of thumb is 1 gallon of soil for every foot of plant

Great!!! Thanks I'll add that to my mental thumb rulebook

Very nice! My eyes have lied to me again lol. From the pic's provided it looks really sketchy lol. Like you just threw a spare piece of wood up and tied everything with vines. I would def add some green chicken fencing if you can, but I don't know how transparent that would be from the sky.

i wish i had pictures of my m8's old grow. He ended up with almost two lbs. Little tree house that was stuffed with tree's. Which if you think about it for a minute, when police are in the sky flying over looking for cannabis, the last place they look is in the tree's lol. Usually in valleys, by water sources, in fields, but never it trees. Good Stuff~

**Or 1 gal of container space to each month of plant life. IMO thats a better gauge. Some Indica's and autoflowers don't get that big at all. A two-three foot indica dominate variety needs more than a 2-3 gallon container, if you want to make this worth your while. No roots, no fruits

Yea I will probably wait and see if anything messes with it cause so far so good, and a tree house is a good idea cause of how many plant's you could grow and amount of light they'll receive but a bit more noticeable than just a pot.

**Weekly update** (3weeks old, end of 1st week flowering [messed other updates up by a week ahead, just looked at dates])
Now I know I usually update on Thursdays, but I got a hold of a decent camera and was so excited to take pictures that I couldn't wait. Can anyone tell me what are those brown spots on the leaf, from my research I believe its a potassium deficiency, so I fed yesterday (with a primarily potassium plant food) and its looking better today then yesterday (spots going away somewhat). Oh yea and just in case you were wondering the bag(and towel) are they're because the house next to it thinks its necessary to keep they're security light on all night (shining right on that tree), wasn't on last night but I'm not taking down putting up taking down putting up, if he stops for a period of time ill take them down

the most common problem is to over fertilize, especially young plants
the amount of soil compared to the size of the plants should make deficiency unlikely at this point
however, if the soil is a bit off or the water PH, those could be the start of trouble, but can be hard to nail down exactly

How far off the ground are you? I use to climb one of the highest trees in the near by woods and cut the top off of it about 10 to 15 feet from the very top then screw my Green 5 gallon bucket directly to flat spot through the bottom of the bucket. Haul up all the soil and two plants with a rope. Plant, water and leave it to mother nature to do the rest. Sometimes I won sometimes I lost. Many variables up that high wind is a big one along with lack of rain and heat. Birds were never a problem and no one ever found them.

lol that sounds nuts. but still very creative! Rep for you, sir!

I only used plant food one time after transplant at a quarter of the normal dose and then once yesterday (same amount), so I don't think that's the problem but will keep an eye on it and see, and if the problem persist I'll get a PH kit.

they don't look overnuted, didn't mean they looked it, just that it's more common to overfeed than underfeed
unless the soil is extremely poor, and doesn't look bad at all, there is a lot of nutrition still in there
what is much more common is some condition that inhibits the proper uptake of the nutrients, and the causes are varied

 

[chickenpoop]

nice plants they look healthy!

Thanks cant wait till the buds develop more, now that I have a good camera I'll prob be posting more pictures.

Oh ok sorry for the misunderstanding. But yeah like ph lockout right??

that's extreme, but knowing the PH of the water going in and out is good to know
between 6 - 7 should be good

Oh I read somewhere that if the soils PH gets to high, or to low, it will lock out certain nutrients.

it can, but that takes very high/low PH levels, it can happen, but locking should be pretty rare
but a bad PH can still cause poor conditions, low nute uptake, which doesn't help the grow

Ok I think ill ride it out till the weekend, if spots worsen, I'll grab a PH kit (water and soil), but if it continues to go away I'll just leave it as is.
