By July 7 the cover had grown in to the point that the pot plant was no longer visible from the sidewalk at all, but I took some pictures anyway, don't bother looking too close, you won't see anything
I went back to get pictures from a better angle July 9
The plant was looking pretty vigorous and healthy
Here it is in the reverse angle of some of the previous shots with a view of the sidewalk in the background, I don't know who that guy is, maybe hes the guy who harvested most of last year's plan. I crossed the freeway offramp to take these and I pretended I was looking at something else in a different direction the whole time.
July 10
The previous day I had noticed a couple other smaller plants, but I was trying not to look at the ground too much because that dude was watching me & I was pretending to look at other stuff off in the distance, so I didn't get any pictures of the smaller plants, but I had an errand to run that took me by my spot so I stopped by for some photos of the little ones. They're not really visible in this 1st pic
The two little ones are visible here, one just left of center and a smaller one below it
July 24
The two smaller plants are in this first photo, the smallest one in the midground had already started blossoming & the 2nd smallest in the foregroud ended up being female too, so I didn't get any seeds made last year
August 28
The bigger of the two small plants still hadn't done much by this date
and thats the end of this story so far.
The smoke on the home plant was pretty good, but it could've been a more Diesel flavored as far as my preferences go. The Female Seeds NL auto I started with was on the sweet side and the NL Diesel auto seeds I made from that seem to be a mix of the NL auto flavor and my Diesel which seem to cancel each other out somewhat. I still have about 25 or so seeds left, not sure what I'll do with them yet. I like the NL Diesel auto's shape, vigor & productivity, so breeding it back to a Diesel regular might be the thing to do to add flavor to it. Or maybe I'll just use the seeds to make another seed batch and save myself a couple generations of inbreeding, haven't decided yet, am open to suggestions.
