@ NewEnglandFarmer - that Chinook looks awesome!

What's your latitude?
My sativas didn't start flowering until mid-August, the Chinook didn't really get going until almost September.

I'm also growing In Maine, west of Portland, I'm fairly new to it, and one of my biggest questions is when does the flowering begin in this part of the world?

PS your plants are monsters! I am going to strive to get my outdoor farming skills to your level!

Well last summer a couple strains started flowering first week of August but others took a little longer. That Chinook really didn't get rolling until late August. So it seems strain-specific. But look for the stretch in late July and then by mid-August you'll be seeing some flowers. Most of the action though seems to be in September when nighttime temperatures drop. What are you growing?

I'm growing 2 mother of berries clones, A Purple Majik clone and a Lemonberry clone.

Also 2 Gold Leaf from ILGM feminised seeds.

All are supposedly good for this part of the world.

I just have them in my veggie garden that's enriched with Benson's compost, which was crazy expensive, but is apparently the best stuff around according to my neighbor who's been a vegetable gardener for years.

All looks well so far, put them in the ground on Memorial day, all seem to be growing vigorously.

I will take some pictures of my garden tomorrow.

Thank you for the info about flowering in Maine.
