Hey y’all, its been a while since I’ve been on here. O am at a loss as to what to do next with these plants. Im growing them outside so its all natural light that i cant adjust lol. These plants keep getting taller and bushier. They are so big. I have been cutting fan leaves off (thinking Ive killed them) then they just bush right back out. I dont think they are starting to flower but Im not sure. I relize that less light will help them start to flower but when growing outside I cant control that and the days don’t really start getting shorter and the nights longer till September. Is there anything i can do to speed up the process of flowering? What do I do at this point? Thank you for any advice you can give me.

When growing outdoors it’s all about the peanuts of day to night. Not the intensity of the light. Plants in our area start to flower the end of August and finish around the middle of October.
At this point just sit back and let them grow to be monsters. Lol just means you have done a good job growing and will be reworded with a good amount of bud. 
Nice work fellow grower.

So, I am growing a plant for the first time outside. I have read they will start when the days get less than 15 hours, however mine started about 5 days ago. I’m in Missouri, and days don’t drop to less than 15 until July 22. I don’t know where your at, but it’s likely to start soon.

Only if it’s covering up a new bud site or restricting air flow

Whats a bud site look like? Im just not sure.
Do you see where the plants are a lighter shade of green with small leaves on the tops of each branch? Thats your bud sights…
Those look awsome by the way! I started mine outdoors but my neighbors were making me paranoid so i bought a tent and moved them indoors. I can’t wait for the day i can grow outside on my back deck without worries…

Lol we are waiting on one neighbor to put up her privacy fence then our whole back yard will be privacy fenced in. It is illegal in Ky. but with people putting fentanyl in it, i feel safer growing my own.

I also have this yellowing going on. Its not terrible by all means but what ive read it could be a magnesium deficiency. I sprinkled a little epsom salt around the root hoping that will help.

Hell yeah man! Its getting bad on the streets! Never know what you might get and die!
Theres no privacy fence thats going to help my situation. I will need tall trees to shield my 2nd story deck from prying eyes… it needs to become legal iN Pennsylvania soon. They just enacted another bill to make it recreational. If that happens them im gold. Until then, its just for medicanal purposes only. I have my Marajuana medical card but still am not allowed to grow…YET🙏

Epsom does work great…
How much tho? I dont want to burn them up. Is a handful or a cup or 1/2 cup enough or to much?

It’s where a fan leave connects to your stem those are called nodes that’s where new colas will formed.
This is banana Kush auto that I removed the top leaves so the bottom nodes could receive light. Which makes more colas ( bud sites) That’s the same plant in the pic just a week apart. If you zoom in you can see where the fans leaves used to be in the bottom pic
