nice grow man, im pullin up a chair :)

im also in soflo. On my third grow season now; tomorrow if you dont mind ill post some pics of my babies i got going now. Only problem ive had so far is the rain gave one of my ladies a bit of a scare with mold. Everything's better now but it was still sketchy for a few days there. Nobody's grow is perfect, i actually enjoy seeing the ups and downs of a grow journal, it keeps me interested :)

well ones loving i and ones on its last leg im hoping the rain i get today will help clear it up since i just transplanted like 4 or 5 days ago and its been dry since unless i water it. but watering is hard cuz all the sand it doesnt penetrate that well. wel heres sum pics0717151921.jpg0717151940.jpg0717151934.jpg0717151926.jpg

what i want to know is how the heck are you in FL and have your plants naturally flowering already. That doesnt happen for me here untill mid august and finish right around halloween-early nov.

thats a good question. every year i grow its been right around aug 1 to the 10th for flowering but these things hit maturity and just flowered on up. two different strains too

Maybe the location you chose for your ladies give it enough shade after sunrise and before sunset that the plant is registering it as a night cycle still and hence triggered flowering. Or your just damn lucky :)

yeah but its weird cuz im so close to the equator that all plants get quite a bit of sunlight. and its a matter of complete hours of darkness that controls flowering thats why it makes me wonder

you could hammer a pvc pipe into the ground nect to your plant and pour the water in the pipe. might help you get some water down there easier.. iv seen it done before.

i was actually thinkin about that yesterday. when i transplanted i put it in sand. theres soil there from the 5 gal buckets but the water doesnt penetrate the sand too well
