Here's a little update on the plants....they are looking pretty good. Haven't seen any signs of nute burn. Am still juggling the watering though, still doing just a little too much. I water before the lights go off and sometimes the Skunk is a little droopy after the lights come on. It corrects itself by the time I wake up the next morning (lights out from 6pm-10pm, 20/4). The FIM site on the Kush looks good, but then again I am a noob and what do I know. I see some new growth though, so that must be a good sign! Will post a pic of it next time I post an update (probably 2 days from now).
Also, my plan with the watering is not to saturate the soil and to never let it completely dry. I read somewhere that a good gauge is that if the soil feels more dry than moist, it's time to water. Am aiming to work up to watering every day or every other day. It seems like the Kush likes more water than the Skunk! I will not be doing any flushing. I know some swear that you will ruin the taste of your bud if you don't do it while flowering....but how do you flush MJ that is grown outside in the ground??? Going to do the best not to stress the girls!
As you can see in the pics, the Kush is growing upward while the Skunk is growing outwards (she's extra bushy!!). Lol figures since I'm trying to scrog. Hopefully Fimming helps the skunk to catch up though. She'll get there eventually. I can't stop looking at my plants, can't believe I helped them get this far. Can't help but be proud. Thought I was for sure going to be one of those people who destroy their grow from too much micromanagement haha!
They are lookin great

I haldf-way agree. they are not being flushed, because as old gets washed depper, new nutes get involved in the situation. Flushing involve Water only no nute, so no that is not happening outside.They are lookin great
As for flushing outdoor plants, I would guess that they are "flushed" so to speak when water carries the extra stuff deeper into the ground past where roots grow
I wish I could keep my house that cool, am in the South...for the moment. Unbearably hot sometimes!
Thank you, same here
Haha I did actually! Thank you for that, awesome quote
Thanks Breeze!They are lookin great

i'm in the south(east) too. thats why i keep it cool. too damn hot
My AC is ghetto as hell lol, I wish I could keep it cool. South east too, I feel your pain.
Lol I heard about TX...it gets really humid here too. Ridiculously so. Been a couple nights where I woke up in a sweat puddle ugh! Had to put two fans in the room just so I can sleep at night...and the summer's not even at it's peak. Wishing I lived up in the mountains with fresh, cool air right about now.
Do the temps get crazy in the summer with an HPS?
Yeah, it's a PITA! Our summer last year didn't do anyone any favors.
