Here's the patch from the West looking East. Just past that back silt fence is untouched greenbelt/forest that runs for a few miles. Kind of cool in an otherwise very urban city with 91k residents. The Dill in the background is 7.5ft with a female that should open tomorrow at ~6ft. May actually have my first male open the same day. The closer Clementz is 6ft. Both plants have some scorching (see one of the newest Clementz leaves) from the recent 90+ degree heat, (even after considerable and regular misting) and the Clementz is still slow to put out secondaries with only one really taking off. Luckily, it's on the right side for my flag pattern, heh. Between both plants you have the 24/7 radio and under that somewhere, King Mole the Pumpkin Pooper. I've had dreams about catching that mole over the last three nights. It shall be done! Lastly, I'm pretty happy with them so far, given the 3.5-4hrs of sun, mid-May start and several newbie errors. We'll see how I feel during pollinations in several weeks.
