This week has not been such a good one. Temperatures have been as high as 43c(109f) with constant winds up around 40kmh (25mph). The girls are looking a little bit rough!
To make matters worse I've had a surprise visit from the property owner and had to move my plants in a hurry. I have lost 2 plants the fugue state and a fantasmo Express. When i picked up the pots to shift them to a more discreet location their pots fell apart and i didn't have enough time to save them! The joys of growing outdoors where it's not legal. I will try and get some pics up in the next couple of days!

with the same gusty winds..plants are starting to suffer..to make it worse I can't move them to a more sheltered area until tomorrow. This is definitely going to have an impact on the end product! One good thing about this is next time I will be more prepared for these conditions. One thing is certain I won't let it stop me from growing! 
. Still hot and sunny but the wind has finally pissed off. I have given them a good watering and put them in a partially shaded spot for the day. I will give them a foliar feed with some liquid kelp on sundown. Nutes are biobizz bloom 4ml/Ltr, fish mix/grow 2ml/Ltr ca/mg 4ml/ltr and p/k13-14 2ml/ltr every third watering. Temperatures are supposed to be 39-40c max the rest of the week which is a slight relief
but are hanging on. I think final weight may suffer a little from the heat. I'm seeing a little mg deficiency problem with the heat and low humidity making some nutrients unavailable.
but I'm pretty happy with how they have handled this shit weather. I have definitely learned a lot more from my mistakes this grow and won't repeat them again any time soon. I'm hoping my next should be a little easier. I will have the products on hand to deal with what comes up immediately.
