    How do you outdoor growers do it?

    As far as Mother Nature, “rig something”…to quote Richard Dreyfuss saying to Robert Shaw in Jaws. If a lot of rain is expected, rig something to keep rain outta the soil. If sun, dig a hole and secure a well-placed cheap umbrella or other sunshade. Burlap cloth makes a good & cheap sunshade. If...

    How do you outdoor growers do it?

    Amen to that. Yep, small pots will also restrict plant roots and stress them more, so bigger is better. Think carefully about where you’ll place those big boys as once placed and filled, you won’t be able to move them.

    Hey guys, I’d like to let this thread fizzle. When my clones are in place, I’ll start a more appropriately named new thread as I need help. Thanks for all the assistance.

    NJ new grower with seedlings struggling to gain size

    Waiting for my clones to arrive. Meanwhile I turned over the soil with my trusty mattock & mixed in a lot of composted horse manure plus stuff from the composted pile. Normally I start my own seeds in late winter here in NJ so plants are a good size to put out come June. I hadn’t planned to...

    I got a couple of clones coming. Soil turns over easily, but if you have some tips for loosening it further I’d appreciate it. Also what else I can amend it with. Thanks

    Time is not on my side with these little plants so I’m looking to buy a clone or 2 of decent size to replace them. Problem is most places seem to have a minimum buy of 4 plants.

    NJ new grower with seedlings struggling to gain size

    I'm a newbie grower but a month's growth for sure tiny plants don't seem like much. My dream of lighting up big spliffs seems to be going up in smoke haha

    NJ new grower with seedlings struggling to gain size

    Usually I set (veggie) seeds directly in little pots of potting soil, which is efficient. This time I sprouted these weed seeds on paper towels (per instructions) then potted up the sprouts, which imo is wasteful of the plant’s energy (and my time) as it reorients itself. Not doing that again...

    I sprouted them indoors, then put them under an umbrella outside after a couple of weeks. Here they’re next to tablespoons for size reference.

    Yeah, they got heavily pummeled by rain here today, which should hopefully make them a bit stronger for it. As far as learning, I’ve got a few do’s and don’ts already under my belt.

    NJ new grower with seedlings struggling to gain size

    Hi all, I’m new on the forum & new to growing weed, though I’m a New Jersey outdoor gardener with a bit of experience. My seeds (1 feminized & 1 auto) sprouted a month ago. Three weeks later, I put them in the ground (swim or sink, baby) in a raised bed in decent organic soil of my own making...
