2020 auto outdoor guerilla grow

Ok so I wish I could be more specific than this but with the current state of the country with the coronovirus I have no idea what is going on from day to day. Here is what I am growing outdoors this summer.
2 Humboldt Deoverde Haze autos
2 Humboldt Lemon Juice Express autos
2 Fastbuds Amnesia Haze autos
2 Royal Queen Seeds Northern Lights autos

Everything else about this grow is currently up in the air a bit. I am expecting to be laid off from my job tomorrow due to the coronovirus pandemic but if I can afford to buy a couple of bags of water only soil I'll be growing in that. Also I don't know if my local Hydro store will even be open for business so even if I can afford it, I don't know if I will be able to buy it. So I may have to look around and see what I already have... And as a last resort I'll find something at good ol Walmart to use.

Stay tuned for future updates.

Check ebay. Walmart is a last resort!!

Just grow in pure manure slightly mixed into ground soil. You can get manure pretty cheap, especially if you have access to a pickup or trailer.

well for now i am back to work. i expect that could change but for now its all good.

I can get bags of compost... And I can get peat moss I believe... And I can probably still get miracle grow Organic potting soil... Or bags of top soil. I just may not be able to get stuff like super soil, ffof, roots organic...

Again ebays the way to go... Although super soil on ebay is a bit pricey.

Yeah, I priced out super soil online... It's about the same price I pay in person... But about $15-$25 per bag for shipping. That bumps it up to about $45-$50 per bag... No thanks. I'll make my own soil mix before I spend that much.

Ok so I talked to someone from Humboldt and they recommend me to use the lemon juice express and sour diesel autos... So I have replaced the Deoverde Haze with Sour Diesel and I have decided to not grow the Amnesia Haze... And to replace it with a couple more Northern Lights autos... So here is the new grow plan.

2 Humboldt Lemon Juice Express autos
2 Humboldt Sour Diesel autos
2 Royal Queen Seeds Northern Lights autos
2 Seedsman Northern Lights autos

Ok there is another changeup for this grow.
We have decided to remove the Seedsman northern lights from the list and replace them with Mephisto Hubbabubbasmellascope... And probably Northern Cheese Haze.

Here is the soil I will be using for my outdoor grow this summer. I may mix it 50/50 with plain peat or coco because it is advertising slow release organic nutrients good for 9 months.

Well I am going to start my seeds Friday in tomato jiffy pellets. After a few days they will go into 2.5 qt pots that I have filled with my own soil mix. I used some seed starter mix I think from jiffy. 1 bag that I think was roughly 12 dry quarts. Then I added 12 lbs of worm castings and about 8 teaspoons of Dr Earth seed starter fertilizer. I also added in some vermiculite... I just eyeballed that.

I am starting 7 seeds.
2 Mephisto Northern Cheese Haze
2 Royal Queen Seeds Northern Lights autos
1 Mephisto SODK
1 Humboldt Lemon Juice Express auto
1 Humboldt Sour Diesel auto

Watching...

Ok so here is what I am planning for my soil... I am going to try to do this cheap... I have been told that with the autos... Less is often more. So I am thinking about getting a bail of peat moss.. and mixing that 50/50 with a bag of Greenfields and a bag of ocean Forrest which I already have.. and then mixing in some Dr Earth bloom booster. I'm hoping this should give the plant enough to finish up or at least close to it after they have been transplanted into their final pots.

Good stuff man .. I’m going to run autos this year for the first time .. also a Guerilla grow.. Im going to do something similar.. FF ocean forest + some perlite.. I think FF soil should supply more than enough feed for autos..

I did some autos in ffof last summer. Now we did get a ton of rain, so I'm sure that washed a lot of the nutrients out of the soil, but I'm going to say around week 5 I started seeing some deficiency... I think you will want to top dress with something around week 4 to keep them happy. Ffof is good for about 30 days... Maybe more if they as small fast autos. Closer to the 30 day mark if they are larger autos.

I am getting very excited for this summer's grow! Last summer was really wet and rainy, I am hoping this summer is not as wet. But in case it is, I am a little more prepared for snails and slugs... And I feel much better about the strains I chose for this summer.

Last year it was so wet... Just snails and slugs were my pests. It was nothing for me to check on my plants to find half a dozen or more slugs all over each plant. This year I am laying cardboard down to keep side vegetation down and I'll sprinkle snail and slug killer around in the area.

put some cups of beer around as well.. they drink that shit right up ( and die )

I'll have to try that... Last year June and early July were so wet... It rained probably every 2nd or 3rd day... And often several days in a row. But I'll bet for a good 4-6 weeks we didn't get more than 1-2 days in a row without some kind of rain.
