Hey @jsm I never have changed the soil at later stage before, with containers and plants this size it seems like it would be difficult but other growers on the forum have asked me that before. It would probably be a good idea. On your question about the containers the bottoms are peppered with 3 inch drill holes, mostly for drainage and a little bit of air flow to the substrate. The local soil where I am is rocky and unviable for growing cannibas, so the roots don't extend into the natural soil. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chefblake420 Posted May 24, 2019 Author Share Posted May 24, 2019 @jsm I think I misunderstood your question. I definitely top my plants though I haven't yet on these or any others I'm growing at the moment, but I definitely will be topping them all eventually, both for height control and to increase yields.😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsm Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 no you had it right, i mend topping of the pots with soil after some time. but your doing just fine the way you are growing at the moment ,i haven't done any topping or fimming my plants ever ,old skool i guess ? i didn't really had to need to also ,at least at the hight department .and bigger yields ??? i don't really know ,save and happy growing !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chefblake420 Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 @g22 happy summer solstice! To your question, yes it is summer here. I'd say there is currently 15 hrs sunlight from 6am to 9pm. Though these particular plants in what I call my sativa section receive about 4 hrs direct sunlight from around 10am to 2 pm. The rest of the day they receive only light that filters through the leaves of trees, what the Japanese call "komorebi". The other plants Northern Lights, Black Russian, white widow x Afghan kush, and Amnesia get much more direct sunlight from around 10am to 5 or 6pm. The climate is dry and arid. The temperature in the daytime ranges from low 80s to mid 90s degrees Fahrenheit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
