One of my plants got damaged in high winds so I chopped it yesterday. I'd give you a Bizzle for scale but I can't fit both of us in the frame 🙄 I'd reckon she's about 5 feet high, though, and I'm about 6 feet, so imagine I'm standing next to it but it's so massive and bushy that you can only see my feet and a few inches of calf. I have tremendous calves, I walk a lot and I never skip leg day, so feel free to let your imagination run wild.

You may notice the root ball at the top. The reason is, I left it in a plastic nursery pot since January. I know that sucks, but the roots were coming through the holes so densely that I couldn't remove it without damaging them and I got scared. Next year, I'm going to use a paper pot so it breaks down in the soil and I wont have to worry about it. I think that would mitigate a lot of the problems I had.

My whole house smells like weed, which I think is sweet. Mrs Bizzle, on the other hand, is paranoid as fuck that she's going to smell like it at work (she's a middle school teacher).

She probably will, and you both will probably be very nose blind to it within a couple hours.

Do you think I should move it out to the garage? Humidity isn't bad here anymore but it's still up in the 90s during the day

I don't have an opinion. It isn't my house/weed/job/etc.

If you are concerned about smells and the garage is a suitable place for drying the question becomes are you more worried about your wife's clothes smelling like weed at work or your neighbors smelling your weed drying? If the garage isn't a suitable place for drying then the question might be is it worth risking a job for better drying conditions? I don't have the answers to those things.

It sounds like you're getting a preview of a much larger problem to come when the rest of your plants are harvested.

We smoke joints in the house so I feel like we smell like it anyway. I think I'm going to let it ride, at least for now.

1/2 inch copper line and what looks like 16x4inch ductwork

That's enough size references needed

Oh man, I did the same thing in one of my soil grows, I couldn’t figure out why the one was always showing deficiencies, turns out I was strangling the poor girl the entire time.

Tragic, bro 😭 I have a volunteer that I think is going to yield better than my last remaining plant. But there's always next year
