Hey Mr. Dog, or can I call you Mud? Central Virginia, I'm 75 days into my first ever grow. I too am growing Girl Scout Cookies outdoors, although in grow bags. Other than my son and a friend to whom I gave a couple of my plants, you're the only other person I know doing roughly the same thing I am in roughly the same part of the world. Nice to meet you, and maybe we'll have stories to swap. I'd be interested in following along. (Sorry about the thread-jack, Retired Engineer. )
