Hello everyone. Started my medical outdoor greenhouse grow today:mrgreen: Had some really nice weather also!! Where im located im only allowed 15 plants so i got 7 purple kush and 8 afgan kush clones. All the clones are nice and healthy about 5-8" tall. They are planted in 5 gallon buckets that have 8 holes drilled in the bottom with 1" layer of tiny rock at the bottom of the bucket with Foxfarm ocean forest soil mixed with some Perlite. I also have Foxfarm Big bloom and Tiger bloom nutrients. I'll be putting up pics tomorrow morning for you all to check out..:mrgreen: Jus a few questions. Seeing as though there in 5 gallon buckets and they're so small how much water should i be feeding them and how often? Also when should i start the nutient feedings of big bloom and tiger bloom? Any feed back is greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading.:joint:

Don't feed for at least a month. Ffof has nutrients in it and the plants won't need anything for a while. Don't over water. Maybe give them 1/4 gallon of water each for the first week. Then bump it up to a half gallon.

its always good to give your buckets a lift if you can to get to know when they need water. if you cant lift them you can always finger test. Those babes wont need much at first. Great setup!!

hey thanks jesco. you know im really surprised how much money i saved with this. i looked all over and i found the greenhouse i have sellling on multiple sites for 250$+. but i found it on ebay for only 125! so i was stoked on that. other than that the only thing that was spendy was the soil and nutes. the boards that the buckets are on so the water can drain were like 1.10 a piece. so all and all my grand total came out to about 600$.
