DNA Sour Cream Outdoor Grow

DNA SOUR CREAM-Outdoor grow


This year I decided to try and grow a feminized DNA sour cream outdoors. It is currently 8 weeks old and I didn’t want to start a grow journal on it until it was big enough for me to be sure it was going to make it, what with the regular miss haps and all. I started it out in a 2 gallon bucket with marine cuisine, organicare the pure, and a 50/50 mix of premier brand Canadian spaghnum peat moss and ph balanced pro-mix. It did wonderfully although it was a little slower growing than the other stuff I have out this year, but that was to be expected because of the characteristically long flowering period they have. Once it grew out of the 2 gallon bucket and there were roots growing out of the bottom, I transplanted it into an 18 gallon bucket with 50/50 peat moss and pro-mix, with no nutes added to the soil. It is now doing wonderfully except having the bottom chutes attacked by bugs in the last couple days. The solution I used to fix this was foxfarm’s don’t bug me insect repellant. For the last 2 weeks I have been feeding it regularly with foxfarm’s grow big, and although it has not yet reached it’s stretch from the nutes and the transplant it has nearly doubled it’s size. By the time it’s finished I am hoping for a big juicy sour cream monster!

Feel free to post any comments, positive, constructive or otherwise...=)

you'll get your monster that thing is gonna be the biggest sour cream Ive seen pics of

I sure hope so! Thanks a lot for the compliment. I think shes already bigger than any sour cream I've seen pics of, but I think that might have a lot to do with the fact that I haven't come across a sour cream outside yet in a grow journal...other than mine. So I'm hoping with the space and sunlight of outside along with the nutes and 18 gallon bucket that she will indeed be a monster.

DNA Sour Cream Outdoor Grow (update 1)


Time for an update! I went up today and was extremely happy to see there was no more bug damage. So she is working on recovering from being hit by them, but still continuing to grow like nothing ever happened to it. She is about 5 inches taller than the last time I saw her and even though she was pretty slow going to begin with she seems to have taken to her wings now. She has bright healthy color and is showing no signs of nute burn. The way this strain stacks, you could pull perfect clones off of it steady if you really wanted to. Unfortunately most of where the bug damage is where I was planning on pulling clones from….so now that plan is shot L. It’s okay though at the end of this I’m sure I am going to be really happy. Today I gave it a feeding of Foxfarm’s Grow Big, Cal-Mag, some Foxfarm’s Big Bloom to help it heal a bit from the bug attack, and some kelp meal. All in all I expect her to keep flourishing.

Oh yeah, and after reading over this I realized I forgot to mention it currently smells like salami, or ring bologna. It is subject to change though..it all depends.
