Are they getting enough sun? This one is 3 days from 8 weeks. I would have thought you would be seeing some buds by now which is why I was wondering if they’re getting enough light.

That was my first thought as well. They look to be under something that is shading them.

Im not sure your positioning is gonna work out for you, marijuana needs a ton of light, those other plants are kinda eating it all up.

Hummm it’s 85-105 so the shade coverings help with too much sun.

Maybe I need to transplant into 5 gal bucket that I will move once late afternoon sun

That might be a good idea, its warm here where I live too, USA, AZ here. Lotsa people grow outside here in summer too, they use shade cloth and build like a frame to protect it from that hot hot sun.

I dont have any experience outside myself, dont dig up your plant on my account. Tryen to think of who here grows outside and in high heat…gimmie a min gotta look through a few posts and ill link them to this thread.

@plumbdand can you offer tips for outdoor in 100 degree heat?

Shade and airflow are most important. If you can increase humidity some how that will help. Plant some white clover around the base about 12in away from the main stem. Clover adds nitrogen to the roots system it also holds moisture at ground level and keeps the roots from getting too hot.

Look up inoculated white clover, regular white clover is not as good at providing nitrogen

I have the same issue with Bubblegum. It’s 19 weeks, 6 feet tall and 3 feet wide and no flowering. It’s an auto that turned out to be a photo. So I cloned it.

I HOPE taking off the shade cover until 3:00 ish when the afternoon sun is hot
