medical patients are limited by # of plants

Mogie

Since we are limited by the number of plants that we can legally have in our possesion then it only makes sense that we work on increasing the amount or size of plant.

To do this spread out the plant when young like you are going to do tie it down but after a week undo the ties and let it start growing up. This will give you a plant that is more open. There will be a lot more space inbetween the stems.

I started mine indoors in early March and put them out at the beginning of April. They were ATF so they can handle cold snaps. They were confused by the light so they started to flower. But the light increased and they went back into veg.

Now each branch is holding what will be it's own plant.

Hey Mogie great looking plant makes me jealous haha.
It only makes sense since the law restricts the amount of plants you can have. Keep up the good work man and keep us posted on the yield

i'm glad that you live under such "relaxed" laws, if i'm caught i get jailed no matter whatever


besides, that is a nice tree you grow there, after harvest i would keep it and have it as christmas tree;)

We actually did the Christmas tree thing one year...but our cats tried to make a snack out of it...we had a really big one we took out of the grow room for christmas, and then threw it back in there after christmas...makes your whole house smell and the cats went crazy...

So do most of you thin the outdoor plants? I need to get mine thinned really soon. I usually go down the bottoms and take out everything that looks like it won't get enough light. I then use these for cloning.

Last year I got very few "popcorn" buds that I didn't want to trim. The first couple of years I hated to trim ANYTHING but the last few I have trimmed to make the buds that do grow bigger and have really liked the results.

Mogie do you thin yours? Your plants look about like mine it is hard to tell cause there isn't anything to compare the overall size to. What size pots do you plant in? I use 1/2 whiskey barrels because they are just my preference. I grew up the daughter of a farmer and have had gardening experience all my life, for nutrients I am always experimenting. I have a bunch of nutrients from someone who abandoned them and have been trying new things this year.

I will try to get some pictures of my grow soon I ended up with 8 (out of the 12 legally) that were planted when they should have been but was short 4 plants and they got out so late I don't know how well they will do but it is better than not getting them out. My husband is also medical.

Oh...and I will get an intro out soon too

Mogie

No i don't thin mine. Pot sizes 5 - 7 gallons I think. Could be a little bigger.

I note that in California, the limit is 6 mature or 12 immature plants. I am not sure how they define mature yet (with buds?).

btdt

Check your county regulations... some counties in CA are VERY liberal in their allowable counts/weights per patient.

Mature would be "in flower" or flowering/w/buds.

immature is Veg growth stage
