thats already been done,theres no way they arent getting enough water though its been raining hard like every day here in florida and another tropical storm is about to hit us in the next few days
 
nice thread man! im from southern florida 20 mins from the famous siesta beach :p anyways im growing 2 "dro" plants im not sure what they are but they are 2 amazing ladies that survived on their own for the most part, thats what i love about florida tho no matter the condititons the plants love it here. you just gotta plant at the right time so your plants cycle doesnt screw up and reveg im on the 1st week of flower only bc i planted late i have grown thru out the years in my area and the only problems were pests prob like caterpilalrs and grasshopers >.< fucking hate those things, i will eb watching this thread. its nice to see locals in the state growing too! , best advice i can give you on dirt tho is make your own! thru out the year just collect compost and throw in plenty of fish and veggies, i go fishing and would justt throw the fishheads and things like that in and when the dirt is finally ready i will just put it thru a metal screen with holes about a 1/4 inch the process is a drag but its worth it, also when using black plastic pots make sure you dig holes and put them in the ground for the buckets not to heat up too much, and use mollasses on the last weeks of flowering, trust me it helps with resin production a ton!

all of these are my height and a bit taller when they are on the ground with the buckets, when the buckets are in the dirt they are about 4 1/2 or 5 feet
 
i wish my plants looked that good lol i planted my big one in april and the rest of them got planted like a month after that, also my plants didnt come from good bud they were all bag seed from brick weed but i did just get some good seeds from the attitude the other day :D

Brickweed? They might take a while to finish
 
ya well around here we call it "mids" its not like brown and shitty looking it was green with alot of red hairs but it was really hard and was treated real badly but that was a long time ago lol i smoke chronic now where you cant get ANY seeds out of the bud. I just really hope the bud of these plants will turn out better if i treat it right
 
There is very good weed with seeds. It is just how they grow the weed......Brick weed has seeds because the let all the plants just grow and pollinate.....don't take care of the plants right. I have smoked fantastic seeded weed......very potent and sweet taste

It may be a bit late and it doesn't match with what I know (which is relatively little) of florida plant life. But are those pine or perhaps fir needles on the ground around that plant? If so I would estimate they have leeched into the ground causing the PH to spike and when that happens the plant can't absorb nutrients correctly. Does anyone know of a way to adjust the PH after the plant is in ground?
 
ya its pine needles, pine trees are everywhere around here. I would have never thought about them doing that, but that is pretty interesting. I'm going to leave the needles there though until i notice it becoming a huge problem but im not having this happen on any of my other plants, except for old leaves that are ready to fall off which is natural.

leech with ph'd water? idk

Well first off even if the water is PH'ed it'll flush the pine needles. As they decompose the PH will eventually stabilize but that takes months sad to say. The good news is the leeching only effects the topsoil if it has a decent root network your baby will be fine of course.
 
Button down the hatches mates!!!! I just did what I could to protect them from this bastard of a storm. Good luck FL growers!
