No I went to App State. I spent my fair share of nights raging in Asheville though, great town. That's where I was planning on moving to if Colorado didn't work out for me but Colorado worked out quite well. If I ever go back to NC that's the area I'll end up at.
i would love to move to colorado but i think i would get home sick
i love these applachian mountains and eastern ky. i do home they make it legal here though bc i would love to be able to grow in my back yard. i could grow some 15 foot monsters with 4-5 pounds on them like u guys do out there and in cali.
I was speaking about east of me in the state but it seems like there isn't much of anything going on fortunately. Holy shit @ the northern front range though.

All in time though right?

Not at all. Wow! those look nice!
I can't believe that Blue Widow has been flowering already...
When did you germinate? Did you have them indoors at all when they were seedlings?
So I'm feeling pretty fucking dumb, guys.
Went out yesterday and it looks like I didn't get there early enough in the day when I sprayed the tea tree oil. Looks like I burned the fuck out of the leaves.
Fuckin' amateur hour over here...

Here are complete pics of the plants. I chose not to water/feed yesterday. I'm gonna give em a few days to deal with this (even though they probably won't 'recover' fully) before doing anything.
Oh, and deer still eat branches off plants that are 3 feet tall. Woo!
(In this one you can see the top of another plant behind the front one. Almost looks like one plant)

It will be alright and recover, at least the deer won't want to eat it right?

Let's hope. I gave the stuff a whiff and, as you'd suspect, it smells like tea tree oil.
Idk if that's attractive for deer or what, but I guess we'll find out.
Hopefully no fungi want to fuck with it at least.
The good thing is that the plants haven't stopped growing. So it doesn't look like it'll be devastating, but FUCK does it look bad. Sometimes ya gotta learn shit the hard way; oils are much more likely to burn leaves than other shit you spray.
The best lessons are learned the hard way

no all started outdoors and left there. even the panama is flowering now. i spoke to dubi and he said they are breed outside at 37 n lat same as me and i could have a early flowering pheno. i started them all on the 15th of april. the only thing that is not flowering now is the bangi haze,malawi and sour blueberry.

ya bro i did that last year with oils
. the leaves that is burnt wont recover but the new growth will be fine..im like u i hate when leaves get fucked up..when my ladys look unhappy it makes me un happy and when they are happy i am happy
lool i spray early in the morning or late in the evening to avoid that now. i been using heavy 16 folair this year mixed with power si,aloe,seaweed extract,ful-power and jumpstart. the ladys love this fkn spray:yay:. u can check back on the plants in 1 hour after u spray and the leaves are praying harder then a whore in the church house.
Is that seaweed extract essentially the same thing as kelp meal?
What I'm gonna have to start doing is making sprays with whatever fungicide or neem oil I'm using along with agsil16, and bring along some aloe vera powder and a little bottle of water to make aloe veda juice to mix into my sprays.
I think that next year im going to move away from Jack's. I might keep a little bit around for the stretch period, but that's it.
I'm thinking I'm just going to make teas with compost and insect frass (or maybe just a super strong insect frass tea) and feed with that. That way I can spray fungicides and aloe/agsil.
I want to have a living mulch too, but then I feel like top dressing becomes an issue. I want to do things like topdress and water in Calcium nitrate.

ya its basically the same thing except kelp meal is actually better. u can use organics and syntheic together. if u are just growing for personal smoke then organics is what u want to do for sure. the reason im not 100% organic is bc i sale alot of my product so i need the biggest yeilds i can get,plus around here people dont care if its organic or not. they dont even know the difference. i can get the same price per oz no matter if its chemical grown or organic so i stick with chems for commeical but my headstash strains i dont care about yeild which is why i those in living soil.
Eh, part of me would still feel guilty giving other people some bud to smoke that I wouldn't smoke.
Here are some pics from a couple days ago, plants are recovering quite nicely.
...and this fucker fell AGAIN!
Next time I go out there, I gotta do some pruning, some spraying, and some feeding.
I also gotta remember to bring clover. God fucking dammit I keep forgetting to get clover.
Slownickel pointed something out to me though: these girls don't need as much water as I thought. This soil retains quite a bit of water deeper down. I'm gonna water less to give these roots some opportunity to dig deep and branch out.
Supercropped 'em again as well. I might squeeze one more in before flowering starts.

who said i wouldnt smoke it? there is nothing wrong with it, i smoked weed grown with miracle gro for years. the taste is just better with organics which is a preference not bc of some reason i wouldnt smoke..hell last year is first time i ever grew or smoked anything organic..so 19 years before that i was smokeing it and if i run out of my organic grown,guess what i do? thats right i smoke the chem bud..im using Advanced nutrients and canna this year for my chem weed to see if it is higher quality then my chem grown with maxibloom and veg+bloom dirty. it wouldnt make sense to lose yeild to sale a good tasting product when i can get more yeild and sale it for the same price..$350 oz a ounce for chem,$350 a oz for organics with less yeild

u need to get some taller stakes. i use black yarn that i use to tie my plants up with. in my spots i make sure that i have something like a tree or a torn bush behind my plant so i can tie the top and middle section up bc once buds get on it they start to lean over,esp when they get wet.just make sure to leave enuff space where u tie it up for the stalk to get bigger so it dont cut into the stalk or limbs.
You're right, I think I'm gonna get black or green rope/yarn to tie them.
They all have really thick, hardy bushes behind them that I can use to support them. Those will be much more stable than any stake I can drive into the ground at this point.
I fuckin' remember heading out there once last year and I had a Spontanica with an lb and a half of bud on it fuckin' laying down! Wet from the rain... Still alive and kickin', but I learned my lesson that day about tying plants up before flowering. I suppose I should get on it now (if not a month ago).
Man... I know we hope for less rain than we usually get come September/October, but I'll tell ya what: I don't know if there's anything that feels quite as surreal/euphoric/beautiful as going out there on a rainy morning in late September, plants big and filled with bud. a soothing rain coming down in the misty mountains. FUCK I love Appalachia.
