Outdoor Grow 2014

7 hours of sunlight is sufficient for a decent yield and dense buds.
The sun should be dropping soon. So lets hope they get extra sunlight out of that haha.

beautiful !

too bad the sun is hidden by the trees..

Thanks dude , the foliage of the trees is not very dense so they get a pretty decent amount of sunlight ...

Cool, they look great..

BTW, tip of the week/month/year ..... GET RID OF THE ALUMINIUM .......

I dunno if they use choppers in your area, but aluminium is the worst thing, other than a lamp !
VERY easy to spot !!

The more the better

I used the aluminium to reflect some heat since my pots are black plastic , but in my area it's allright nobody is looking for marijuana with choppers

There is probably some other factor playing into that though. Slugs?

@Didi94 Hopefully next year you can get a better spot. If we can get our outdoor ban lifted I am gonna get a ladder and start cutting back trees in my yard. I will blow the yard up before they try to ban it again haha

It's spottable on foot too..

the plastic isn't good too, but it's black and doesn't reflect .. if I were you I'd NOW dig holes and bury them with the pots.

bad natural soil and not enough bought soil ... but I learn

Why not plant them on TOP of the trees ?

Genius, no one ever looks there .

but hard to water and all that sh1t

Yeah im gonna try to find a better spot I want to get the best possible quality , growing marijuana is just an awesome experience and my favorite hobby now

That must be hard work gettin all the stuff on the top , but in terms of sunlight would be awesome

If that tree gets infested with pests..........your fucked.

Yeah. In native soil you should at LEAST add compost for moisture retention and drainage. I mix my soil with the native soil because it is clay and retains water well. Also has trace minerals.

If you can find a tree which is LOWER than the water source, and place a pipe between the water source and the plant, it's actually easy to let the water drop to it .......

BUT we don't need this sh1t .. too complicated

Yep.

But I heard clay shouldn't be used at all..... maybe they meant "100% clay" ..

I like to know the plant touches the local soil .. feels like home

100% is a no no. Clay mixed with organic matter and some perlite is a great medium outdoors. Not in containers though.

Yeah fresno im gonna put a bit of effort into two decent yielders hopefully this season am in the process now of gathering a few supplies up so im not just throwing in a seed or two and saying ahh fuck it ill prep the soil better next year......I do that to often but finding rui last april has given me the motivation to do better : )

 

[ruby fruit]

I had an 8 ft sativa going well till second half of flower with prob 6 hrs direct sunlight all the way through ....my problem is more knowing when and wat ferts to use so thats where ive been learning .......tells me a decent size plant can be grown on less than 8 hrs a day just need to feed it properly

An ewc, aeration amendment, blood meal, bone meal, and kelp meal is all you need really. I skipped out on the kelp meal and just topped dressed with alfalfa meal. I have compost mixed which probably contains a lilttle K. I use dyna gro protekt anyways which is 0-0-3 NPK. I will definitely be amending all my soil from now on. The plants love it. I found a bunch of bags of blood meal and bone meal on clearance so ought a couple grocery bag fulls lol. The Maxsea I am using will still be around in case of a deficiency. But for the most part I am just gonna use ewc/compost teas, molasses tea, dyna gro protekt or plain water.

I know it works well I experimented with it on my chilli plants
