Thanks GDB. He will be 11 months in on the 23rd and he is just such a sweet, smart, and loving dog. Everybody loves him! (Me too!)
She's is a boss!
I think you need three tents so you can spread those two tall ones out to fill the space like the old days! So pretty (but for the leaf hopper) and that puppy is so sweet. 
Well, of course they are!...You've really got a "way" with the autos, Boo...
...She's got big plans!
Cool that we've both got 3 and 5 fingered phenos growing...
And what a handsome little buddy he is...
It was worth looking at twice.!.
.....
Good morning Boo
As always, beautiful growing. When I grow up I wanna grow just like you!

Hi all. I'm gonna be back with an update soon but I have a pressing question if anyone has thoughts. My big ladies are trying to goi into flower and I've just realized what the problem is....I had my outdoor flood lights replaced last November with LED lights. 
. It is preventing them from flowering. There is one fixture with two lights on it and I've made two attempts now to cover the one closest to the plants (will know this evening whether it is semi successful or not). Has anyone out there run into this problem? I cannot turn the lights off as we've had a rash of burglaries in the neighborhood and someone tried already to break into my house once because outside lights were off. I'm really running out of time for a successful grow. 
. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hey I just figured out my problem too because of this post! I have a cap junky that should have started flowering a month ago at least and it’s still in full Veg pretty much. Guess what I have in the yard- motion LEDs that come on all night. Way too late now I maybe have 2 weeks of sun left.Hi all.

Sorry Boo I hope you figure it out, that’s a new problem that several of us will likely need to deal with.

I hope so too. I still have a very tight window of success, otherwise I need to find someone with a huge tent and do so super cropping. They are 7' tall...
Without a way to drape a huge tarp over them I don't see how it's going to work. Lots of PVC for a frame and a tarp to create a "tent" that you put on every night and take off every morning would be the only suggestion I have.
Or a tarp lean-to if the light is directly above them.
Can you just aim the offending light in a different direction? (prob. not, but I had to ask
)Cover it with a piece of cardboard? (there may need to be ducttape involved.
)Move the plant out of the "lit" area?(a last resort)
Cover the plants at night? (big ol' pain in the ass)
Open up the light, and disconnect the wires to that one bulb? (careful on that ladder- we ain't spring chickens
)That's about all I've got.. I hope you get it figured out-
maybe a pic of the light?- it might get the MacGuyver wheels turning..?

Here are a couple pics. Yesterday I had a friend hold the ladder and I put a piece of duct tape over the one light. Once the sun went down I could see that it wasn't going to work, and today when I went back up to try my new trick I noticed it was melted... so today I took two strips of duct tape and connected them into one wide strip. Then I covered them with electrical tape layered vertically and horizontally. I taped the "pocket" around the outside of the light and will see how that works later tonight.
I can turn that one light a little, but not sure how far. That's likely the final try. It's a really effin tall hike up there...

Some exterior light fixtures have metal cones that fit around the bulbs. If you can get that for yours you could extend them out (or make your own since LEDs don't put out heat) to make them more directional with less spread, kinda like a narrow dog cone (only not translucent!). Then you can aim them away from the plants with no spillover.
I hope you have a long warm autumn!

I was thinking about something like that too. I've got only so many tries left. Fingers crossed for an Indian Summer!

Hi all. So far so good with the light cover. I don't expect it to last for the next 2 months but I have a couple of back ups in mind. . Here is an update on the auto flowering gals. First up is Mimosa Cake. Im not quite sure how long she's been flowering, need to go to my written journal and pull out some milestones. She smells ahh mazing! So fruity sweet and vanilla-ish!She was the first in flower of the then two. I made the mistake of dropping seeds before going out of town for a week so she's au naturel. Here's a cola:
Next is Wookies #1. She is also untrained but beautiful nonetheless.
And a look at a cola:
And the survivor Wookies:
She was 13" when she went into flower and has doubled to 26" so far. I was able to do some light training on her. All those big fat leaves are on the lower part of the plant and she has very thin Sativa-like leaves on the top 10". Funny. I seriously hope those long stems stack with bud! Finally, I have been looking for a cabinet to put all of my weed related stuff into for quite some time. Last week I found it in a local antique store stuffed full of furniture.
The inside:
Clean glass!!
So happy to have everything in one place!
That's it for tonight. Thanks for looking!
Love your posts. Love your plants!!! So amazing that survivor is gonna be a fatty by the end
