I gotta ask, fdd, as I've never grown outdoors, but how do you keep people from just sneaking in your backyard and stealing your ladies? I'm not trying to get personal or anything, but it looks like you have at least some neighbors from your pix. Don't they see what's growing in your back yard? I know you're legal, so you don't worry about the popo, but seems like theft would still be an issue. If it were me, I'd never get any sleep for fear that some punk, teenager and his buddies would raid my garden right before harvest.

Hello fdd-
Your shit is looking great! I have a set up a lot like yours, but mine is used as security against thieves and animals. It has chain link, up the sides, 4"x4" wire over the top, cemented 4" up the chain link and 6" into the ground around the outside. Sure helps me sleep better at night. Photos 1-4 are from last years grow dated 7-17-09 just before the cement sides went in, and picture 5 was taken last week. My indoor girls are finishing up in there, and my fall girls just came out that day in picture 5.
I'll be watching-

why the hell would anyone need to ph water for outdoor? rain isnt ph'd plants love natural rain water!! and if you make your own soil like i do i add lime to the soil to help with ph'ing anyways... my tap water is always at 6.8 so thats not bad for outdoor anyway but the lime just helps for when i do add the flowering nutes later in the season cuz nutes will change the ph of tap water... but never do i check it for outdoor... ph meters are for indoor soil or hydro... not outdoor... at least for anyone i know here in nor cal...

I use fresh river water and they love it. If the river is in flod it turns brown, I think they love it even more all the silt must be full of nutrients.

yeppers.... floodplains are extremely fertile, from all the sedimentation. egypt's nile valley is a prime example.

How much wieght are you expecting from this grow Fdd? I want to try growing in the ground like that in my greenhouse. I have a few plants that are about 1-2 feet tall that I can start with right now. How far away from the walls should I plant them? I was thinking about 2 - 2 1/2 feet away from the walls and I could super crop them and train the branches away from the walls, what do you think?
