As many of you may or may not know, i grew some pretty good crops while living in Spain. Some getting to around a meter and a half and an average yield of 35oz per season. I thought i was pretty good and i think i have a natural talent for it and the drive to produce good crops. However after going round the house of a young Spanish friend of mine i relised my plants were miniature compared to his. He had 12 of them. All on a drip fed irrigation system. Upon first glance they looked like Christmas trees. Standing at least 2 and a half metres tall. They were unbelievable AND we were only in the month of May! They were heading to be MONSTERS. Long story short. The police found them. ALL got Destroyed but he got away with it and didn't even get a fine. (This is why i loved living in Spain the laws are so chill) If only they didn't get destroyed these would have been record breaking! Heres a shot i took of them!
Thats a real shame, I honestly did think the plant on the right was a pine tree until I read your post.
Jesus... those are huge. They look like they needed some more room though. Regardless, that is awesome... would have been a nice harvest.
1) Climate permitted him to plant outdoors early. 2) He started them indoors. That REALLY Sucks. Good thing he didnt get hit though.
Man i did that too. I used to plant at the end of Jan- early Feb. But they still didn't get that big. This was one of my biggest.
I too live in Spain and have also seen people with plants over 2 metres tall. The right soil and Spanish sunlight is an absolute godsend for plants.
i think the stalk that you guys are reffering to is actually a stake to hold it upright and withstand the wind but i cant tell for sure but if it actually was part of the plant then...WOW
Really nice plants! I wish I lived in an all year round warm climate. Planting in early seasons seems to produce MEGA crops! Cool post man, sad story, lol.
