Group Thread: Outdoors 2009

Decided to sneak out to a couple of my outdoor grows this evening. I took liquid nutes of course so that it wasn't a vanity trip, but I definitely was wanting to see how they were doing and snap a couple shots for everybody to check out.

Oh yeah, the strain is Durban Poison. Same as my indoor grow if you want to check that out in the soil journals section. This is not a very bushy plant, naturally, but she is very stretchy.

Enjoy!

haha yeah. a private, south facing balcony with a nice view was an instant sell for me. rent is pretty high though. I also have an escape route in the event of a random suite check or maintenance if need be.

I have plants out in the forest as well... speaking of which i should probably find time to go check on the little ladies.
last time i went in to my spot they had been demolished by bears. I propped them up with sticks, but haven't seen them since. my bears seem to enjoy knocking my plants over, but at least he doesnt dig them up.

For some reason my stupid phone is having problems uploading pics but here's the update. The kush plants are being transplanted from five gallon buckets to 45 gallon "smart pots" and filled up with happy frog soil. The roots looked healthy and not bound up but I'm unsure about the amount of veg growth for the next 6 weeks or so... I know its hard to give advice without visuals but does anybody have any strong opinions on mid summer transplanting? I'm hoping to get at least another foot of vertical growth before Sept. I will post pics soon

Youll get mroe than a foot of veritcal growth between now and Sep.

I live in an area of the US that has (literally) the shortest seasons available for growing anything.

I wouldnt transplant anything past that end of July IMO.

I could be wrong but thats the latest i plan to do it with these ones. It will take them a possible week to take root and get going again and i think anything past the end of the month will put finish times back 2 weeks or more.
I Have NL plants that i just started a couple weeks ago and they are on the 3 set of leaves under nothing but daylight.

I anticipate that after the next 3-5 weeks of vegging, plus stretch and flower time these plants will finish out at around 2 1/2 feet.

Odd looking plant there BC.. Hope she gets really fat for ya.

I actually posted 2 different plant pics Random, thanks for the well wishes.

The odd looking one was an old mother that I forgot about in a 1 gallon pot
just found yesterday. Most of its leaves had withered and turned brown
and its got some tiny branches on the side. I have about 30 in total.

Needless to say, I do not expect it to yield more than an eigth.

I have quite a few this year just hard to take pictures
in the area they are in for security reasons. I'll take some
good ones when they finish..
