Yes, I am. Swamp tubes.
I normally grow some outdoors every year. This spot is perfect for it. I'm even going to grow some in buckets strapped to trees out over the water. Let the roots grow down in the water.

Thank you.
I have been making adjustments to my soil and lights. I'm getting everything just about where I want it.

I may try a couple in floating rings. Like a netty pot in a foam ring. Anchor so it doesn't float off. I'll take pics of both.

Got me a turkey opening day. Shot right through that hole.
It was a young Jake. It will be tender.
There is a large one I'm after. He is a smart bird. It will take some work to get him.

Nice bird! Good luck on getting the bigger turkey. He's gonna be watching his steps for sure now!

He might. The big ones don't get big being dumb. Turkeys have great eyesight and hearing. If they could smell you, they would be impossible to kill.Nice bird! Good luck on getting the bigger turkey. He's gonna be watching his steps for sure now!
The big one is a couple hollers away.
I shot a Jake because I wanted some turkey. The big ones haven't fully started to strut and breed.
A dominant gobbler will set up a strut zone. He will roost, eat, and strut in a pattern. That will be his strut zone.
I will have to sneak in before daylight and not spook him off the roost. That will put me in his zone. I will setup some decoy hens and another dominant gobbler decoy.
I eat everything I kill. I feed myself and my family from wild game and some livestock.
My goal when hunting is a quick humane kill.

They are in large nursery pots with extra holes in the bottom. I dug out under them and added good soil. They will be able root in the ground but I can break them loose and move if I'm compromised. They are in an area they can hit the water table a little ways down. Once they reach it I won't have to water them.

Stretch is about done. I haven't been back to the guerilla grow. I decided I didn't like the size of pot I used. I will make some more soil and go back. I will use 55 gallon drums cut in half. I will probably only make one swap tube to test this year.

It is called a scrog. Screen of green. It would work outdoors and keep the height down.
You would top it a few times to make multiple tops. You would them out up the screen and start weaving and tucking new growth under the screen.
You could cut lower limbs to out more energy into the tops.
Look up scrog videos on YouTube at different grow stages to get an idea of how to do it.
