Power Plant Road 2009

Hey RIU.

My buddy is asking me to document his outdoor grow. Its in the deep south of the USA. The soil fucking blows and its hot as balls. It's a 3 hour drive from this city and a 1.5 mile walk from the path, up hills, in 65% humidity according to my friend.

Regardless of the latter, my friend decided to grow for the following reasons:
1. Bud Dealers are either sketchy, dangerous, or stupid here
2. Bud is too expensive or poor quality
3. He is sick of his friends smokin him up with beaster

So, these 5 plants were taken from this seedling box that started inside: Sweettooth#4, Cinderella, Champagne:


They were in Fox Farm OF and Miracle Grow MC. About 16 plants were under 1 60watt CFL. 5 made the cut to go outside:






I will try to update this weekly as my friend brings me pictures... Thanks RIU!

My friend planted these per Jorge Cervantes Ultimate Grow Guide DVD #2. He used Jorge's Guerrilla Grow Technique specifically.

He gave them about 20oz of water each on Sunday... Anyone think they will dry out before their next watering which would be Wednesday?

some need water aka wilted

probably but they should get used to the conditions. Sunday to Wednesday is pretty normal.

Got word that 2 of the 5 burned in the Southern Summer Sun.... Damn. ain't that a bitch. My friend Paco is going to probably put more out there. No pictures; Paco was too pissed about his 2 torched plants to think about photography.

agreed...i'm even further south and it's killing me this year. haven't had rain in more than a month!! i tried setting up a pump system from a creek about 100 yards from my site, but the banks were too tall for my 12v pump. so i got a stronger one and it's still too tall, only providing a small trickle. but at least now i only have to carry my water cans 100 yards instead of a couple of miles
