Unfortunately I didn’t wieght it 3 plant’s gave me at least 7 large glass pickle jars , that’s a lot of weed, I wouldn’t doubt they were 10 feet tall and when it started budding everything filled in to the base of the stalk , damn impressive plant evidently it thrives in our area Full Sun :sun_with_face:

Damn What massive Buds! I haven’t tried Blue Dream , sounds like a good grow for my area! They need to have a Contest on here for the biggest plant’s, we may just win it ! What I’m growing this year looks good don’t get me wrong, but not very big like the outdoor mix i grew A couple of years ago

Did the root system fill up the Nursery Pot ? Look’s like a big 10 gallon, i started going straight into the ground, after I dig a hole i put granular insecticide in bottom to kill any underground pests, I use a good potting soil, i really like Black Gold it’s already has earthworms castings in it , or I use Bacto it’s a little bit cheaper but no castings

Very nice @Nip , Looks like you’re on your way to a bountiful harvest.

I don’t have any pics of mine from last year that I can find. Got a picture folder with thousands of different things I need to organize, its an overwhelming project I never seem to get around to. Being computer illiterate only makes it worse

One of the Amnesia Hazes I grew last year I wish I could find the pictures I staked it down to the ground hard. in a raised bed among Peppers and sweet potatoes, It would have been about six or seven feet except every foot I put a tent stake to hold it in the ground. It had the prettiest little colas all rising straight up from the ground, none more than a foot high.

I got a few ounces from it. It was 100% in full sun, seemed a bit more potent than the AHs I grew that were shaded for a few hours a day.

The smell of AH is phenomenal. I don’t care for the deisel/ heavy skunk smells that go with some strains. I love the AH. I’ll probably grow some every year from here on. I went with some Jack H this year to try something new, I have two AH that are struggling a bit. They get a little to much shade. I’m about to move them into full sun. Heres one

Looking good, I guarantee they will take off in the sun, what I’m growing this year is not exactly what I expected, my Bruce Banner plant’s are not very Big , they’re kinda of skinny, same spot i been using

Ole @W.B.elpaso grew some really kick ass blue dream last year. I love my Amnesia Haze, but that Blue Dream I would probably say is on the top of the list of my favorites.

I’m going to give Blue Dream a Thumbs up after seeing those Big Buds! I’ll be planting some next year

I have two 67 gallon nursery pots they almost fill up with roots the 50 gallon fabric bags fill up the bottom and leave a space about 2 inches all the way around . I compost the roots that will decompose the bigger stalks and roots I dry and burn them then put them in my compost or refreshing soil as I call it. At harvest I feed my trim to our rabbits it cycles back to the soil I use . I don’t really compost the rabbit poop I just put it in large protein tubs out of the weather . The rabbits have stepped up the grow game 10 fold out compost is cow poop, chicken poop ,chicken feathers ,alfalfa pellets ,freshwater seaweed aquatic plants, out of date milk,warm flat unfinished beer, and any old potting soil I come up with from jobs . I do home repairs and foreclosure cleanouts always potted plants left behind . My Girlfriend thinks it’s gross but when the opportunity opens up I take a leak in the compost piles . Geez I’m rambling this morning .



A little yard decoration we have growing on

What Breeder of blue dream ? I tried this year to get Blue Dream beans but they were not available .I’m on several “notify me list” when they come available. I’ve learned there is a huge difference with breeders some just mix/cross the strains which I guess it is what it is . And some actually have the best strongest genetics possible . I’ve gotten seeds from Eye EL GEE EMM they grow they okay. They could be way better. I still get some I like the ilgm crystal . They just don’t grant us with heavy harvest .

Long long time ago I used fox farms trio of liquid food I never could figure out why they sell some organic and some not organic and sell as a trio . Then I got more fox farms products liquid kelp and wholly makeral .using all that my plants never thrived or got over 5 ft tall they seemed to be held back . I was on a job and my customer had 10 ft tomatoes I was blown away. I was walking around in her garden and she came home . She was like what are you doing . "Just admiring your garden " so all she wanted to do was talk about it I asked her what kind of fertilizer do you use . She said I don’t use fertilizer. I was just shocked anyway it took me a few years struggling to get it right . We got rabbits and that changed our garden world .

Not sure, ask @W.B.elpaso, he gave me some thats the beez neez. I think he’s growing some now.

I love using those red feed buckets for tomatoes, Just drill some 3/8 holes in the bottom, put a little gravel in there and they make a great containers. I’m jealous of your rabbits, they make some great compost IMO. Have been wanting to add them for years and somehow we never get around to it.

I’m going to be honest Alaska Fish Fertilizer works just as good, greens up plants and doesn’t burn them, the Fox Farms Grow Big is not organic or Tiger Bloom, the big boom is supposed to be bat Guano and worm castings

They’re pretty tall now, just a bit lanky and scraggly. They don’t seem to be as big of water hogs as Jack H.

I been wanting to try Jack H , I heard it was really good weed i don’t think I ever smoked any

I’m a little confused about the Bruce Banner plant’s, reading the information i thought they would get huge, there actually have a skinny stalk and lanky, can’t figure it out there getting plenty of sun and nutrients, maybe they grow better indoors, I’m not going to get a massive amount of Buds, well I guess you have to try different strains and learn which grows best

Your Growing Bruce now ? Sounds like you have the natural blend that carries more Sativa traits. They could use 100% sun . Remember what Bruce Banner did ? You will probably see this later how long has it or they been growing.?

Exactly, they are a Sativa dominate Straight, I’m thinking the Gorilla Glue is 50 50 or something
