The moment I released the belt and it sho-did flop open! It literally split the plant "Right Down The Middle" at the primary Y... i caught it at about a 1 inch split and duct taped it right back together.
It probably won't have time to heal properly but it has made it this far. And some branches are hell bent on staying bent! These branches are too heavy to support their own weight and had to basket weave the canopy.
From what I have learned up till now is "cannabis plants respond very well to duct tape! After all It worked on the moon for the moon rover!!!!
I was guessing (hoping) I'm in for at least a pound; the entire canopy is fist sized chunks and the stems are all completely blanketed in juicy plums and/or cherries. It wants to tip over with the slightest wobble, even with 3 gallons in the bucket. Im remembering why I tied her up...
Hey, I'm having trouble since taking off the training belt!
The super cropped branches are so heavy with bud they're hardly able to support their own weight and are trying to crack at the well formed, hardened knuckles.
Back to tricky basket weaving all the heaviest branches to support one another.
Trying to keep the canopy and Side-sprouts from flopping and breaking because the knuckles and wood is getting brittle.
I have it pretty much stabilized for the moment so long as it isn't being jostled around. I'm counting the hours before the end so no worries about it falling over.
The foreplay is over and I'm about to lose my first grow virginity; it's a tense time. LOL
The potency of this plant is causing my anxiety to rise.
I'm worried about my granddaughter losing focus of her goals.
It's an extremely relaxing buzz that makes me lazy and I worry she'll lose out on limited opportunities available to her.
I'm trying to keep her mind open to the growth opportunities that the military can provide if she's too stressed out over college and being a stoner isn't a plus in a college environment.
I know she's an insecure person and physically inactive so I tried to recommend the Coast Guard, Air Force or even the Navy. Convincing her that they are less physical and more cerebral than they used to be is not just TV hype.
