Thanks guys! I’ll probably take you up on that @blowdout2269
Hope your weeds are pulled successfully and you did pass out from heat stroke. I’m avoiding being outside right now
Hopefully she smokes like it, she seems like the toughest girl in the brood. Her stalks are sturdy and she was unfazed by the neem burn the others got.
I don’t intend to top anymore, just manage the existing shoots. Hopefully I don’t have to resort to craziness to keep 'em low. Panalawi is accelerating vertically, but so are the others
Life has been throwing me some curve balls but I’m hanging in there. How’s it going up around your parts? How’s the rodent situation going?
For sure! It’s absolutely nuts. Pretty rewarding too. I can’t believe they are loving the heat. Yours is looking good too, just peeked over at your thread. Seems like a happy plant in it’s new pot
It will stay fairly bare if it stays dry. That’s why I isolate water to plants individually. I have excellent soil. If you look closely at my tomatoes to the right, you see weeds only around the base of them. That’s next weekends project.
Peppers? Oh my…to many lol. I’d have to look at em to list them all. Off the top of my head; bells, italian sweets, banana, hot banana, moquerito, desperado, jalapeno, big jim, Anaheim, habanero, ghost, cayenne…uhh idk lol.
Hopefully not, should have another week to go before any pollen goes. I’ve only seen male flowers for 2 weeks, and I can’t even hardly see any more - they are covered by female flower bracts. The plan is to chop that side of the plant (that could make pollen) before the flowers open.
Normal photoperiod bloom started late July last season. It’s bizarre to see the 907 really getting going already - should finish pretty early OR she’ll be THHICCC. I’m happy with either outcome
Thanks for the help along the way! I don’t have the diversity you do in your plots, but I’m very excited to see my girls flourishing. I think the Panalawi is starting to accelerate vertically I love its skinny dagger leaves.
Need to clean out the shed and update the firmware on my drying cabinet. Was going to modify the routines a little and clean up the interface. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel - 3 months or so to go. Looking forward to this year’s harvest. Hopefully everything plays well in the last half of the season.
Have a great day boys, hope your gardens are doing well today too!
The funny thing is the guy is retiring from a place I almost took a job at, another engineer.
I need to take them a congratulations gift anyway, he and his girl recently got engaged. Warn him Panalawi is probably going to be creeping into his kitchen view soon
I probably don’t need to be as worried this year as the tree that shields these from view from the road is much larger and healthier than last season. I think I can let her get as high as 10-12 feet if she wants too. I’m not going to go crazy trying to keep it short.
I mean…how tall could it get? I don’t see it getting more than a couple feet taller than it is now. I think Hawaiian snow maybe added 2-3’ and they’ll wind up being similar sizes. Who knows, maybe with the 50’s they’ll keep the gas pedal to the floor longer. We’ll find out…
