trichcycler Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 sure, those are the perfect condition for powdery mildew, budrot, and subpar smoke. Nobody I know still has flowering plants out in November. Forced flowered indoors, most will finish in 60-70 days outdoors, but the time is up for the season. grow indoors, imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beourbud Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) As long as they dont freeze they will keep going. Been a very good end to a miserable start this year. Weather wise. BTW in the pic you will notice that the tree has been cut down to less than 1/6 original height and is still growing today! . cool huh Mother Nature been good to us this year but they gotta come in for the winter soon. electric bill to date $0.00 Hey. indoor , outdoor..either way good meds can happen. You know what they say...Some folk like to spend a little, some folk like to spend a lot Edited November 8, 2013 by beourbud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trichcycler Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) never said there weren't diehard late flowerers out there. But the growers I know harvest their last perpetual crop in October, minimizing several risks. The op indicated a thought of placing flowering plants outside this month, a ridiculous notion I think you agree watch them ladies closely, it snowed here last night, and has been frosting for weeks in the morning, raining for days at a time Edited November 8, 2013 by grassmatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beourbud Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) Wait What? No Way Putting an indoor out today would be .....Why? eta....in this instance the outdoors is a greenhouse with no additional light or heat. The green house minimizes the humidity and percip as well as amplifies radiant heat.. Of course all enclosed and locked per regs. This year the frost have been kind/low lying...in this area. otherwise the temps have been tolerable we be kind to mother nature and she picks up our electric bill.....Imagine That Edited November 8, 2013 by beourbud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beourbud Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) Quality you ask? A1 Meds dry and cured are consumed today off of the very plant (growing today )in the pic. cool huh Hemp needs to be Commonplace Again.!

pic book Posted November 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) my greenhouse is electric space-heated to 70f days, to 59f nights. i treated in veg with eagle 20, and at week 17 no bud rot, no wpm, no botrytis fuckelula. the dollars for electric heat are way fewer than for hids. my concern is simply with 'mostly cloudy' in the extended forecast. for lumens in the last month of bud-finishing, wud i be better off indoors under hids?

trichcycler Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 I figured with only one month to go for his finishing flowers, and a 1000 watt hid costing less than 25 bucks for the month, why in the world would someone trip over dollars to pick up nickels in the 11th hour? 25 bucks is one bud, on one branch, of one plant, and pic was considering risking HALF of his flowering meds is all. I grew in a greenhouse and get it, but would never risk my patients supply for 30 more days of flowering to save 25 bucks, just me I guess. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beourbud Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) I will get you a pic...pic book Humidity is a killer this time of year for sure but if you can manage it you should be good to go. ETA some strains will hermy with the natural to artificial light change.... What we do is..Top the plant. Early...The plant matures on top first,,prune and put our special salve on cut. The plant continues to grow....cut and salve over 2 months.....the small stuff onthe bottom branches keep growin.faster .......even the little buds on the lower branches swell up nice and sticky. Prune to go into winter storage. @ 50 degrees.....Low dose 24hr light till reveg......cut clone in spring Edited November 8, 2013 by beourbud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trichcycler Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 do you provide your meds to patients or just grow for yourself? my greenhouse is electric space-heated to 70f days, to 59f nights. i treated in veg with eagle 20, and at week 17 no bud rot, no wpm, no botrytis fuckelula. the dollars for electric heat are way fewer than for hids. my concern is simply with 'mostly cloudy' in the extended forecast. for lumens in the last month of bud-finishing, wud i be better off indoors under hids?

I wood Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 (edited) Hid lights produce about as much heat as a heater, watt for watt. Unless the orange glow would somehow give you away, why not use a light as supplemental heat during the day. I'm in a new space with a broken furnace right now and hid lights are my only heat source. Instead of buying more space heaters I am adding lights as the temps drop. If I'm going to use the electricity I might as well get big @ss plants out of it.

pic book Posted September 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 Yesterday i noticed a few dime-sized spots of botrytis on some of my outdoor plants. A few years ago i had a liquid sulfur spray but i forget the name of the product. The stuff stopped botrytis cold and was safe to use up to the day of harvest. But what was it called?

orion Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 A 1000 watt light cost about $54.00 a month to operate at 15cents a kilo watt hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
