Massachusetts Outdoor Grow 2019

July update. They're coming in nice so far, the June weather was the balls. Just got in from 10 days away and couldn't believe how much they grew. Last month most of my effort was topping and stretching them out evenly. At this point, all keepers are pretty much through the screen and now I'll just let them stretch upwards on their own, with minimal topping or shaping to keep things in control. All new growth and foliage under the screen is being slowly removed to allow all energy to be directed towards the major colas above the screen. A 2nd screen will be added at about 6 feet for additional support... I expect these to probably top out at about 8 feet.

A fellow mass grower here venturing outside for the first time since growing. I have 3 autos and 3 photos (non femenized) growing outside. Def put the photos too close together but hoping the middle is a male if any of them are. Great to see a thread for mass growers

Wow. All the updates from everyone look positive.

With everyone having such a solid summer...it appears the weather we get this fall is our only obstacle to victory.

Very happy with the June weather. Fingers crossed for rest of the summer (and more importantly, Sept/Oct).

All the plants are looking great. Here is one of the BlueBerrys we have going this year. Its 3 months old, in a 10 gallon pot. About 5'5" feet tall. Been topped once and lightly defoliated. (115lb male ridgeback for reference...)

Cant wait to see these babies flower. All the girls are doing just as well (other photo strains are Pure Indica and Grand Daddy Purp) Seriously impressive growth so far this year.

We still need figure out the patron saint of "70 degrees, 55% humidity, and zero rain all fall"...

Thanks bud. Cant complain so far this season, knock on wood.

That's "Cerb". Hes a big boy (Outside the fence. Pronounced 'serb'). He sleeps inside the fenced pool area with the plants at night. It's a 20x40 in ground pool, so the fenced area is pretty big. He loves protecting plants.

Nice looking BlueBerry bush and a great looking Rhodie. I used to have a Boxer/Rhodesian mix. Great family dog, loyal as all hell.

Very. We love ridgebacks and decided years back that they would be our selected indoor/family/security breed. We have sheperds doing the outside duty.

Ridgebacks are super stubborn, but they also have more of a drive for food then any other breed I've seen, so they are very trainable. They have the perfect mix of phenomenal temperment with babies and small kids (who constantly wrestle with them and harass them), and aggression towards strangers. Especially at night.

I've never seen a dog like a ridgeback when it comes to "big baby during the day" in public around other dogs and strangers...and then "hyper vigilant protector" at night. They are like the batman of dogs. And freak level athletes.
 
Everyone's plants are looking great. My plans have changed and we have exterior renovations planned all summer, so I've stayed inside. I'd like to have more property so this type of thing didn't matter.

As all of us would Mr.C !
At the very least you got your inside going on. Have to have my House inspected soon so in scramble mode! only want him to be able to see what i want him to see indoors and outdoors.
Insurance companies in Mass are such a Pain in the Ass!!:wall:

Sweet! I know it's the "outdoor" thread, but I think the Massachusetts part is more important to everyone here.

Would love to see some indoor pics!
