hey just had a quick question...

I put one of my mothers outdoors about 3 weeks ago, and she is already getting quite massive...

when i put her outdoors she was only about a foot and a half tall, but just as wide... now, i went back and she is easily 2 1/2 feet tall and over 3 feet is diameter...there is so much new growth its unbelievable...

how big will this baby get>??.. it gets about 8 hours of sunshine a day, optimal water supply, using DNF nutrients.. The plant has been topped many tiimes ..since i used it to take cuttings from...

will i end up with something out of control, or is there a way i can keep it from getting really tall.... it can get as bushy as it wants, space isnt an issue, i just dont want something 10 feet tall... although 10 feet wide would be great


hope this makes sense and my question can be answered.... i have just never had a plant this big at this stage in the season...its really amazing


thanks a bunch...

I've seen a picture here somewhere of someone who did some aggressive LST on an outdoor plant and ended up with a nice short shrub. I'll take a stab at finding that picture and linking it here...

That's one option.

... couldn't find the picture. Dig around here a bit, and start thinking seriously about tying her down.

Who remembers Ommamedmar, has not been around for over a year now...

Basically forget the small and embrace the large, check out Omma's outdoor grow for some seriously large outdoor plants, maybe this is the way forward

Sounds like your off to a great start. I used rope to tie the main stems and pieces of wire coat hanger bent like U 's for the branching. Just keep pinning it down as it grows taller. It worked out great for me the last time, so I'm doing it again The plants I lst'ed got alot bushier. They actually did look alot like shrubz from a bit of a distance hehe. I would'nt top it anymore, it can stress the plant. And cause it to use up growing energy to heal itself.
