Plant seeds indoors for 2022 outdoors.

[St. Phatty]

The heat is getting worse than I have ever seen. Hitting triple digits "every day" 105F or 40.55C. The grass is dead and shrubs and small trees are turning crispy brown everywhere.

What state or country are you in ?

I like weather data, even "hearsay", which can be just as valuable as "official".

I'm hearing a few people comment on the extreme heat.

In Southwest Oregon we're having unusually cool weather.

Hey Creeperpark, I love your journal. You seem to be able to veg very young plants with a very sharp soil yet they still grow happily albeit show very dark leaves but no clawing or burnt tips. It seems the rainwater that is low in ppms is the key?
I wonder have you tried to keep the potsize low so they get to use less nutrition until it's used up and then repot?
Best wishes

Yes when I grew in the Wilderness I would grow plants in dixie cups indoors under long photoperiods. Sometimes they would live in a cup for 6 weeks. When the last threat of frost was over I took them out in the woods and planted and flowered them.

Using this seed strain was an experiment to see if I could veg a cold-natured plant in hot growing conditions. These are Blue Indica's seeds from a cold region and I was going to see if I could veg them in super hot temperatures and keep them alive until the cold weather comes. "Win or lose", I learn something from this experiment.

I had to put these plants in the ground and mulch heavy because of the excess heat. Plus I have to shade the plants during the evening Sun. They are getting water every other day. I was almost sorry I even put these plants outdoors because of the heat in the 102f or 38.88C. They seem to be holding on and hanging around until it gets cooler. Only about 40 more days of heat.

Romberry Crosses.

Either there's something smeared on the Lens OR the sun is causing a "Lens Flare".

I wonder if the taller ones will turn out to be males.
