               If I don’t get a mega bloom on my plant how long do I wait for one to show up before just pulling the plant?  What truss do these mega blooms usually show up on?  I’m a C grower in case you’re wondering.  I currently have 4 big zacs and 1 mega mutt in the garden.

               And to add to that...some big zac lines don’t produce good blossoms for me, if I had a “dudish” plant , I wouldn’t hesitate to cut it way back and start over with a strong sucker on the plant...that sometimes “reboots” the plant...(at least in my soil)...good luck jay... i have faith in you...

               Be patient, they will arrive especially on that megamutt. Mid summer a 2-3 megabloom isn't a bad thing. My biggest came from those. Good luck!
