Crawdaddy's 2014 Summer Outdoor Season

So here is some new photos of the ladies in the greenhouse!

First is the autoflowers, they all look different as expected, all doing some sort of flowering.

So bought quite a few things at grow store for my outdoor today..

2 X Bail ProMix HP
4 X Bag of ancient forest
1 X 25 Gallon pot (for the Blueberry)
2 X 20 gallon pots (for the Flowerbomb Kush and Critical)
hydro tubing for the two hydro plants, BVK and BCB

Mixed up enough of my soil mix (1/4 bag of Ancient forest and 2 cups dolomite lime per 10 gallons of Pro Mix HP) to transplant the Blueberry into the 25 gallon, dam that pot is big and heavy when full with soaked soil. So she now is in her permanent home.

Anyhow first up are the autoflowers, some are starting to get nice smell....

Still no signs of early flower from any of my ladies, thinking i pretty much in clear, knocking on wood. It been a nice sunny spring, unlike last year so maybe that has helped:)
 
So got home from work today and did my normal check in on plants....

And it looked like the BCB and BVK in rockwool grew about 2-4 inches in day, just seems that way to me. So i decided to pull them down/spread them out and I noticed how the BVK is almost acting like it strecthcing before flower, but no sign of preflowers.

I am hoping/thinking it just stretching out to get all the tops even?

I also finally set up their pumps and timer this weekend, so no more feed to waste. Maybe that why they went nuts?

Anyhow here are pics...BCB on left..

O they are VERY healthy right now :)

Checked on them this am, already all perked up and pointing to the sky! Weather is perfect right now, 75-80 highs and 100% Sunny for last week and next week at least (hell probably all summer :))

My big blueberry still has 'wrinkly' leaves like too hot/dry for her, hoping she starts to look better soon, was pretty stressful for her getting put in new big ass pot! (my notice that alot of my plants had these wrinkly leaves, I have improved air circulation in my greenhouse)
 
Weekly update!

Everything is humming along nicely.

I transplanted the Flowerbomb Kush and Critical into their final homes, 20 gallons pots with HP Pro Mix mixed with 1/3 bag of Ancient Forest and 2 cups dolomite per 10 gallons of Pro mix. I may give them a few days to get used to new home before pulling down branches.

Here is overall shot of greenhouse, plants in the rectangular pots are my g/f's. She has her own journal on them.

Nice work, Crawdaddy! Can you describe the construction of your greenhouse? Thanks.

Crawdaddy's g/f here: The greenhouse was a kit by Shelterlogic. The frame is powder coated steel, the cover is polyethyene. The only negative with it is since we have it on the concrete patio, it is harder to secure in place (it comes with posts to secure it in soil if you put it in the yard). But otherwise it does it's job well.

Thanks for the info on Shelterlogic. I've got a 10x10 EZ-Up canopy from Sam's that is secured with 4 5 gal buckets of water, 1 ratchet-strapped to each corner. That has survived 50+mph winds and driving rain.
