outdoor growing both sativa and indica upstate NY

[axisofevil]

so heres my grow... i have these 9 going,some indica bag seed, and some sativas which are supposedly 'Amsterdam slam' ... but im not too sure, i got them from some older people, who grew up with weaker marijuana than what got nowadays... the plants overall are growing slowly, but healthy. i think that once i transplant them, they will take off like rockets, since i dont need to disturb the pots, just plant them straight into the soil, and the roots will break through.

i also have coming to me some seeds, lowryder #2 variety pack... which will have autoak47, skunk, and some others... including mostly lowryder#2. since they grow so quickly i had to wait for the warm weather to start them.


all these intro pics are from day 1-27 . thats right 27 days... and they are still this small, but hopefully like i said once i transplant them the growth proccess will exponentially increase.

any questions?

 

[Mystik]

nah I'd just say to watch the sativas that's a bit far north for them to be outdoors... should be fine unless winter hits early.

 

[axisofevil]

when should harvest be do you think? mid september?

 

[johnny961]

Before the 1st frost.

they look good axis, those jiffy pellets work great eh? +rep/sub

 

[axisofevil]

yeah the jiffy pellets do work good, also these cups work great too, since i dont even need to disturb the soil just plant the whole thing into lager containers, and the moisture of the fisrt water will make it porous to roots. the only down side is i cant find any fertilizers anywhere except MG..

 

[dopewear]

you must have a hydro shop around or even a hardware store i know for a fact HomeDepot caries more then just MG same with Lowes. You going to go organic or no?

 

[axisofevil]

i have some organic self feeding soil, i forgot the name of it, but i am going to transplant all of them into bigger pots and move them to their final location within days so keep looking me up, is it really that imperative to go organic?

ive heard nothing but good things about organic growing, supposably the smoke is unbelievable. but totaly up to you, check out my OD grow tell me what you think?

 

[axisofevil]

day29 good????

 

[dopewear]

they look pretty good dude but they seem alittle small for 29 days but they look nice and healthy.

 

[axisofevil]

i know.. i think the being small part is a combination of the cold nights we are still getting, and the small potts i am still using for them, my friend has a plant the same age and its like 15'' already, but he has his indoors, plus better genetics. once my plants get around 3 feet i am going to take a week and cover them for the night with a garbage bag each, and force them into flowering early. each morning at 830AM i will uncover them, and around 830 PM im going to cover them, i will keep this up for about a week... in order to force flowering. hopefully it will be enough time.

 

[axisofevil]

it wont stop frosting here its ridiculous

 

[axisofevil]

my remedy for frost is, either take them into my car, or put newspaper over them, both work. but bringing them into the car works better since they got a little jostled when i put newspaper over them, i guess the cold still got to them.

 

[axisofevil]

ok so i had more plants but someone ripped them, but before they got too them, i had noticed something fell ontop of one of the baby plants, it only had like 4 leaves, and it was broken at the stem. so i took the seedling and cut it totally off from the base, and then dipped it into a food coloring container with water inside it. in a week, the seedling actually sprouted roots, so pretty amazing because i didnt even use rooting hormone or anything.

 

[axisofevil]

they seem to have done well today, it has been warm consecutively for a coupe days.

Your best bet if you cant find any other nutrient, as far as flowering anyways, is 20-20 orchid bloom nutrient. it will flower your buds just as well as any bloom nute
