Best way to keep a big outdoor tying down?

[smokditup]

Hey guys well Ive got a 150L potting bag with early skunk. I know its going to start creeping over the fence. The bloody bag is already 4foot high to begin with.

SO what should I do? any methods to keep it squat ? and bushy and down low? Cheers

chicken wire is the go, but you will need to start using layers of it from the time your girls are a few weeks old.

 

have a look at my out-door grow diary latter today as im about to update it with pics of my girls.  They were transplanted out into the garden this week and have there first layer of chicken wire..

may I ask what was the yeild like? I am expecting a pound I reckon in a 100L big potting bag

I would start by burying the bag its in by at least a couple of feet if not all four.  It'll take time but thats a huge amount of growing space going to waste.  I would also invest in tent pegs as they're super cheap, easy to tie string to and can be anchored into the ground by a child.

 

You can also tie a branch down more than once if you give it a day or two to recover.  If you tie them down so the branch feels firmly in place one day the next it will have a bit more give in it.  You can use this to your advantage and essentially train the plant into any shape that tickles your fancy.  There are some limits like when the branching goes thick and woody but while young and flexible the possibilities are almost endless

hmmmm.... im just debating whether I should grow it. I live in a very small backyard. and there is all four houses surrounding me. I know shes gonna get big. And I only have one femmed seed of her.

 

My mazar last year was good. It didn't smell much but I definatley know anything with skunk #1 x's in it REEKS. I know its only an "early skunk"  8 week flower but its gonna stink everywhere..

My female mazar gave me one seed off her. I think how it works that if a single female plant produces seeds with NO other males around it will be a female. I think.

Unfortunatley Ill have to start moving her around the backyard for the sun. And stealth at the night time. So the 100L bag is quite heavy to drag around but its the only way I can manage.. I may put some holes in the bottom of the bag and tie it down via that way to make it squat. Early skunk gets very tall quickly

LST works well.

How long did it take for your early skunk seeds to germinate?
Planted some over 3 weeks ago and only now germinating... they better grow faster than they germinated!
