Thanks Bill!
Vaping or edibles, Blueberry has never failed to put a smile on my face.
For outdoors this year I've got Lemon Kush (photoperiod) to go in the ground, and CBD Lemon, Sour Diesel, and Dark Devil autos to go in pots.
I'll be starting the autos around the first of May. I want them to get the most sunlight possible.
I'm thinking of starting the Lemon Kush later, around the first of June. I might change my mind on that one though. I'm itching to start it now.
What have you got planned for the greenhouse this year?

Thanks Cap!
I've never thought it smells like real blueberries, but I have an actual blueberry bush so I get to smell the real thing every year. She does have a very distinctive scent, and I've smelled it from a bunch of Blueberry crosses too.
Mine have never had the hint of skunk that some others have had, and I'm good with that :laugh:
It's a sweet scent, and some plants don't smell like weed at all.

You going to run them under the lights for a bit to get going?
What are you thinking pot size for the autos?
I'll fire up the greenhouse as soon as possible.
With a few upgrades. ;)
I'm not sure how many but all @Herbies, some clones some seeds.
I want to have a couple to harvest every month in the Hut aswell. :p
I need more room asap.
Not a great year for a late spring. :rolleyes:
How are things down there?
You cutting grass yet?:rofl:

Yeah, I'm going to give them at least a week or two under the XS2000 to get them started, then the sun asap.
Since I've got the 60x120 tent I have the room to start them in 20 litre/5 gallon fabric pots.
I've seen people who uppot autos get mixed results. Some stunt, and some don't, so I'm going to avoid the possibility. Starting them indoors lets me get them going properly in their final pots, although there may be one surprise coming. Depends how my shopping trip this morning goes. If I can't get what I need today it'll probably have to wait for next year.

Can't wait to see it!
Now that you have an ideal place to start them this season should have a smoother start.
Are they predicting a late spring up there?
We've had almost a week of 20⁰C and up temps, but they're still predicting a high of 6⁰C and snow for Tuesday. Hamilton actually broke a record older than I am a couple of days ago. They're saying 28⁰, but that's out at the airport. Our thermometer here read 30⁰.
April in Ontario, lol!

Snow on front lawn is down to 3 feet.
We are finally getting some sun.
The river broke open yesterday.
Here is the greenhouse right now.

The shopping trip went well, so here's that surprise I was talking about!
 
There are almost no white stigmas left. Just an occasional new one popping out here and there.
I just watered her, so we'll see how long it takes her to drink it.

Knew there was something I was forgetting to do!

I'll be checking the trichs on Blueberry tonight. She keeps popping out random new stigmas, and the sugar leaves are showing hints of purple through the trichomes.

Looks like it's getting pretty high in your pics, are the people who live around you getting worried?

It's getting bad!
I drove Stacey into work this morning.
All the rivers were well past the banks.
Close to houses that are normally very safe.
It's well past the fire pit now.
There is a major current in my yard.
I'll grab a pic.
Ok remember where the greenhouse sits?
That's where I took the pic from.
Last year it stopped at the firepit.
It has to be 18" higher than that already.
It's still rising fast.
People are very worried.
Some of my neighbors especially.

Wow Bill!
I'm really hoping that's as high as it gets and you guys stay safe!
 
Do you back off on light power near the end of a grow? I intend to. I think it may help a bit convincing the plant to finish.
I sometimes drop the hours of light a bit, but I only got a light with a dimmer last August, and these winter grows have been my first full grows with dimmable lights. I never even considered doing that.
It's definitely worth a shot. At this point all she's doing is fattening up those buds.
 
I just went back to look, and we're a few days short of 10 weeks from flip. 66 days so far, and Friday will mark 70 days.
That seems a little longer than I'm used to with Blueberry, but she did take her time starting to show stigmas.
I think it's time to clip a lower bud and take some pics with the digital microscope.
 
Wow Bill!

We are up the hill another 10 feet.
But it's come up 12" today, so :rolleyes:
It's giving our neighbors greef.
But we are safe for now thanks Melville. :thanks:

She looks done to me, except those damn new stigmas!
I do think she has a little more swelling to do as well, but she's almost done.
She has more purple coming in too.

Her time on the throne will be coming to an end soon.
