mid Michigan 2020

No debris hit them. It was a combo of very heavy colas and 3.5 inches of rain in about 2.5 - 3 hours.

GR got swamped. I live here. Actually dug some drainage with the power washer last fall.

I had horrible experience with bud rot last year, so this year I'm putting a cover over them to prevent rain from sitting. The Seed Cellar has the hook up for genetics, no doubt. Defiantly talk with the people there, they know their shit and will direct you correctly. I do recommend them. I just found out about this company today, https://smokintomatoes.com/#ourproducts , they make compost mixtures specifically for cannabis. basically bulk super soil. They are in Michigan and After talking with them I was blown away with their intimate knowledge of organic nutrients, so I'm going to give them a try. updates and photos of the girls coming soon!

Thanks for the info! I checked out their website. Looks like they have some great stuff. I am lucky enough to have acreage with woods, pastures, mushrooms, leaf litter, etc.. to make my own living soil, but I may talk with them to see if they have anything I can add! I always like to use Michigan businesses if I can!

LOL. Started in the tent. Been in the window since Dec. About second week of. It has a 40W 3700K LED flat panel over it. Vegging well and full under it. No sun in the widow this year. Today was half day totaling 6 in the past 2 months.

Don't need no cage, when ya can't get out der wit yer truck even, no more Eh? Ohhhh Yaww...

This old troll agrees. Just stock their pantries for a long camping trip.

After seeing what is possible in my rural neighborhood (ish), last year with my first serious attempt at an outdoor grow, the rest of the family agreed, I should go to work on the land.
There are hundreds of acres, of pristine, untouched forest..... Ancient soils, layer after layer, teeming with extravagant bio activity.
I can't wait.

Avoid the pines. Except white cedar and red fir, rare but here. These have great carb input and work wonders on roots.

White oak bark is an amazing source of benny fungis. Been experimenting with it for a while in and out.

How do you guys prefer to grow autos outdoor? I was thinking about starting some in my tent next month and when it gets crowded put them outside in like may? Give me a couple different harvest times through summer

I do have a question for yall though. One of my super lemon haze grew a fan leaf where the top node should be. will she be ok?

 

[wonder6977]

also does anyone know when I should expect to see pre flowers? most of them are regular seeds.

I don't think you'll see preflowers on most of those strains til June.

 

[wonder6977]

bummer, so I will have to force flower them if I want to know the sex, right?

Or you just take a cutting from each one and flower it.. then you'll know what is Female or male.

whats the fastest way to clone these quick to put them into forced flowering?

If in fact that the super lemon haze grew a fan leaf on top then you need to top it. Cut it just above the first node and it will produce 2 main stems. It will slow it down a bit but you will be better off at the end of season
