Ok so, I will be growing outdoors this spring.

whats the best way to start seedlings for outdoor grows? should I start them off indoors under my CFL's in jiffy pots and then transplant them over to the grow site? I think thats the best method, but some say just start them at the grow site...

I will probably be growing maybe 15-20 plants... maybe... depends on what my grow partner wants to throw down haha

I always start my seedlings for outdoors inside, that way you already have a fairly established plant once it's outside.

LST it to the pot, so it can handle the wind.

Lose the "grow partner"

You know the old saying : Three can keep a secret if two are dead.....

I didn't see that part.

Your plants should be your only grow partners.
Have you ever 'partnered' up with this person?And harvested?
Mis-Communication can be a bitch, what if he waters then you water, or you both feed?

And that's saying you both checked on the plants at different times, if you went together it'd be easier for people to be like wtf are they doing?

It seems like it'd be alot easier for you to go it alone, then your responsible for you and your plants not a friend.

Best of luck to you.

haha I like this saying.

But, Im planning on doing a rather large grow... about 15-20 plants... it will be on my property and he will not be going to the plants without me or without me telling him to go to them.

The only reason I have to have a growing partner is for acouple of reasons.

1. I will need help carrying all these plants down to the grow sight.
2. I will need finding a good grow sight on my property.
3. I will need help clearing the spot once found.
4. I will need help carrying water back and forth to the plants.
5. I will need help setting up chicken wire around the plants.
6. I will need help with the harvesting of it.

Yes I understand a growing partner comprimises the whole situation, but there is just simply no way I can do it all by myself.

Dude you have a while before it's time to plant outside, First find a spot, Then every few days, go down and start to clean some shit out of the way and mark off where the holes will be.

You can do it all in moderation, a few plants down a day then once you have two down there, set up those twos chicken wire, then when yo ugo to check on them take more.

But what do i know, you might want the help with a job this big.

Im friends with my grow partner anyways, and I doubt he would fuck me over, I understand the miscommunication thing, but if that happens atleast it will only hurt the plants and not us.

We both know the consiquences of this and wont tell a soul, so it should be good to grow...

If it's the right time of year, and you have harvested a indoor grow before, outdoor should be cake, just bugs are something you have to watch more.

It's pretty easy seeing how, you don't have to watch temps, lights, fans, all that bs.

I think outdoor grows faster also, in the beginning, i don't have a whole lot of light inside though.
