RE: Who else is growing organic?
Hay hay @drutter, this girl is O.G. all day and all night!!! For sure, my newbieness is loving the marijuana platform! Check out my colorchallenge thursday/green usually when I put post about my gals.. However, @elemental has the best pot blog check him out and has inspired me to maybe do some live video/episodes of this year's grow. Once Winter hits, I'll have lots more time to interact and create content posts.
My girls are super behind this year, kinda bonsaied them and did a double top, I have my vendor tents on them and fans and now is super fine line to keep them going without the p.m in our valley here of the Willamette in Oregon. they look like they might go into November. I think they are going to be just perfect yummieness whenever they are ready!

Excellent strain! Your plants look good and I like that ground cover. How/when are you tenting them?
My outdoor experience is mostly with tomatoes but I absolutely intend to own land someday and grow right under the sun. Maybe a polytunnel or something like it.
Thanks for your comment, I'm checking out your page.
Well, tricky biz, this is my third year growing rec outdoors. First year, didn't cover at all and paid the price, got botritus really bad that year. When plants are in veg or early flower, if it rains which seems to be rarely in summer these days I let them take the shower, they love the rain, and i and it usually will dry fast, no problem.. once September hits and that first big rain or misty moisture in the air and cooler nights creates perfect condition for molds here, then I put the tents up over them and add fans and when it's super super stormy I add the walls.. problem with that is you can make a humid tent.. I'm experimenting with one of the pots since I had an old wambly tent I just barely covering and getting more air flow on that one, gonna see how that works so far so good. Last year, I kept moving tents back and forth so gals could get more sun, this year not doing that. I know they love the sun but there is also a fine line with too much UV radiation. I feel, when they get partially shaded they seem to brighten up and be much happier? the fans are crucial, bugs hate the fans too! A lean tube greenhouse works well, need to make bottom 2-4 feet open up for air flow, so don't do the bury the cover in the ground method.
Cooool, thanks for all that info! It sounds like you've had various ups and downs and learned a lot already! I look forward to hearing and learning more : )
