If you are looking for absolute monsters, next year dig a hole 6 feet X 6 feet, or even bigger!! You dont have to dig deep in your northern climate(in fact a shovel full deep of loose worked soil i find to be ideal, as it warms quickly)
Thaks for the kind words bud! Appreciate it. Yeah 54 and its long daylight hours(coupled with hasty winter onslaughts) will certainly make photos a challenge!! How many hours of daylight do you have on the 21st of june and how many minutes of daylight do you lose daily after that? When does winter like conditions rear up?(october 1st?)
Well, I am fortunate enough to say that my ladies do not need to experience the extremes as they would in (central) Canada. They are enjoying a coastal climate in Europe with temperatures usually above 0°C from May the first on with frost possible until May 20th. I envy growers from southern Europe and the US A LOT for the strengh of the sun though.Are you 54N north america or europe?
(though i would like to really edit the maximizing photos guide)
BUT not this year, the sun is fired up with temperatures constantly above those of Portugal
On 21st of June, there is 17 hours of daylight with 1 minute less each day in the beginning leading to 15,5h of daylight on August first. Photos usually start flowering beginning to middle
May I ask: What do you think would be the single most important edit?
And what I forgot to say: The first frost is usually mid October-mid November. The coastal climate keeps temperatures as constant as they may get in northern latitudes. In the past 7 years, there have only been a couple of days with more than 4cm snow snowdepth (except for this winter)
never had I thought that cannabis develops such a wide root system :-O
Oh man, I think we have to deal with very different challenges climate-wise with you struggling with frost while I am mostly concerned about the power of the sun in late flower plus awful humidity. Humidity in late flower is around 80% on average meaning that I need all the wind blowing from the coast to keep my ladies healthy and sexy :/ Last year constant rain during September did not cause a mold-problem at all since the wind was always close to stormy. Then one day the wind and rain stopped ... BOOOM mold was there and forced an early and dissappointing harvest.
Aaaaand... This is where the sexy autos come into play. Summer with humidity lows of 30-40% in early afternoon make up for 70% humidity in the night
At what latitude are you growing?
