Outdoor Season 3: Year of the Widow's Blues Dutch vs Holland growoff photos and autos

Hey @witchyhour - The cherry bomb in the pic above would be been the one in the grow battle between you and I....LOL,,,would have been a beatdown of epic proportions, if yours would have germed properly!! :D
Well, it just wasn't meant to be. But we'll have to do it some time, and I know full well that, if all goes well, I'll get a beating! [emoji121] [emoji4]

My new cherry bomb is looking more like it should look though!! Considering the very wet dark cloudy season she is doing great. Speaking of which i took a couple of pics yesterday and i guess i didnt update!!

Think fast @Waira , i think the boron call was correct...she is still not great, but i do see some green coming back and the bleached upper shoots have seem to have ceased progress.

@Waira - sorry bro...been a little absent minded lately...do you think i should hit the Think Fast with another shot of borax, or do you think i am good to go with a single dose(which was 1/2tsp per gallon foliar feed with 2 liters, as well as 6 liters of soil drench at 1tsp per gallon)
She is looking better for sure, but this question remains in the back of my mind...will it be enough?

Last week left, this week right (one thing is for sure, she looks ALOT better this week!!)

You should be good on the boron. Its a trace mineral and plants only use a few ppms. Did you know they also require chlorine? You'll never see a chlorine deficiency though, there's enough chlorine for a plant in the sweat on your fingertip......
 
Got out and did some staking today...we had a metal framed(1/2" square tube) shelter given to us but the roof ripped as it was a bit old and sun weathered...after seeing it would cost $300 for a new roof, I decided to just re purpose the metal. And the metal has some great angle brackets for some extremely sturdy reverse supports, so i re purposed as many as i could and did some serious staking on the now getting large outdoor photos in the sun garden. I wired on some nice padding(water pipe insulator foam), and set a bunch up around the perimeter of the green poison and also some on Atomic and Fruity Chronic juice. Looks great and farrrr stronger/more stable than even the 5 foot tall bamboo pieces.

Forgot my cloth measuring tape...but i formed some pieces of wire around the smallest plants main stalk and also the largest plants mains stalk and was pleasantly surprised when i measured the wires. Turns out Moby Dick XXL and Nashira are now the 2 smallest tied at 27". DPs Glueberry grew a bit and is now 1" longer so she is 28". Not sure about DP AWW but i think she is holding steady at 30". Next shortest is cherry bomb, but not by much!! She has grown vertically quite well over the last few days, and must be 31" easy(quite a bit taller than nashira right next to her). After her we have the Bloody Skunk which was 37" the last i measured, and her counterpart Cream Mandarin XL is really going for it as she is 1" taller than the bloody skunk now!! Sweet!
Topping the group is Dinafems AWWXXL and she is now measuring in at an excellent 42" which is the tallest auto i have had in the full sun garden so far.

Auto Thoughts...tallest to shortest
Dina AWW XXL 42" - Stunning...a monster for sure...main cola is going to be 16" or better. Side branches will be 12"+ colas from what i am seeing...will be the last to chop i think.
Cream Mandarin XL 38"? - Looks and smells fantastic...think we have some potential for some dense flower on this one.
Bloody Skunk 37"?- Hmmm beautiful flowers, but she seems to be struggling a bit putting on any real flower.
Cherry Bomb 31" - I have a feeling that cherry will be amongst the better yields...every side branch looks like it will be 12"+ colas...top to bottom bud forming. Easily a 15" main cola.
DP AWW 30" - Damn there is some excellent crystal brewing on the AWW!! Nice thick bud too...be the first to chop...i stopped the use of silica today on this plant and also on the Nashira.
DP Glueberry 28" - Excellent production so far....every branch will be solid bud on this plant from tip to main stalk, in fact they pretty much already are. Has a minty type of scent now and nice sticky crystal is showing well.
Dinafem Moby Dick XXL 27" - Struggling a bit with production, but the bud looks just fantastic...loads of crystal and a nice hazy smell. Quite dense.
Portal Nashira 27" - Really nice thick frame on Nashira, very thick branches and some side branch buds are turning into flattops. Love that kind of bud.

I looked at all bud very close today and spotted zero hermie qualities and zero mold...so far so good!! One thing i notice today which training some side branches on the autos...damn rhino skin is aptly named for sure!! Branches are very very tough on every strain! I want to make sure the silica is out of their system by harvest so i stopped its use today on Nashira and DP AWW. I am trying to target 3 weeks from finish to stop its use. Most definitely testing its mold reduction qualities this season...rain every other day and really high RH...today its 60rh in an air conditioned house lol...pissed rain last night and is hot today being 90F
