Outdoor Cannabis Cultivation

I'm just about to get ready to plant. Can someone tell me how much compost I should put into the ground. I was thinking about 1/4-1/3 compost and the rest of the soil an equal mixture between potting mix and the soil at the site. Is this too much?

Did you skinny-dip or sunbathe topless beside your pool this summer? Chances are, your carefree frolics were caught by a camera in the sky. The particular sentence that caught my attention was: "A by-product of locating land is the ability to precisely locate people," he said. "For example, aerial photography can identify which weeds are growing on a particular farmer's property". Rest of the article here: Voyeur-sats raise privacy concerns.

Hey, I have a plant on a window inside a house. It's 1 month old and it's about 5-6 " high, is that normal? it has about 15 leaves. I know of friends that have out door plants that are the same age but twice the size, What i am wondering is.... At night time when I sleep, I put my aircon in the room on and the unit is about 2 ft away from the plant. Would this stop the plant from growing? Thx.

i live in the northen suburbs of perth and im lookin to start a crop in the back yard. i was wounderin how to get hold of some good quality seeds as the last bunch just died almost straight away. any help would be greatly appreaciated cheers

not sure what they are called but i'm sure we've all seen the nets that alot of horticulturists use outdoors for keeeping birds etc from attacking they're crops, usually seen alot in wineries. available in black or white also is good for if you have dark/light leaf strains. obvously you won't be able to grow 15 foot monsters in your front yard, (perhaps you could if you were keen enough ) but for the backyard it would just aid in making the ladies inconpicuous as it is very hard to distinguish whats beneath them. ~Boe~

so.. what the fark are they and are they going to cause my grow any damage? i had them last season too... and they just seemed to nest in the leaves - i couldnt see any damage from eating etc... just tiny little white flying thingos! anyone able to actually understand my weird description and enlighten me?

I have about 8 plants outdoors and never thought my 70+ neighbourhood (it's not really a retirement village just seems that way ) would really be an issue, apart from their visitors. However at a good half a meter high now one of my neighbours (from the side i have the plants on and quite visible from his windows) pointed out the marijuana plants in the garden Just wondering if any of you have had anything similar happen. Around this area i have been heaps dosile about smoking and growing the fine erb as it's just part of my natural life and it's just there... like food or tv. The strong odour of burning ganja is almost always seeping out of my house along with…

I planted 9 seedlings in those tiny little vegetable punnet things aroung 10 days ago. Since then 5 have sprung up 3 have already got the first set of jaged leaves and the others are just forming the first rounded ones. Can anyone tell me at what height they should be be4 I transfer them into somthing else either the ground or reasonable sized pots to later remove and plant in the ground? Cheers, Tristan.

Can anyone help me with what was/is a good time to plant Outdoors in the NSW Central Coast region... about 2 hors Nth of Sydney. Cheers. --------------------------------------- * CC bud rox0rz * unlikely, ha

Sup ppls.. i just put sum clones outdoors thats didnt seem to b growing much in my floodNdrain.. and ive noticed that the leaves r curling upwards and ive got a crazy ant problem.. there all over my ganja... will they effect the plants..? and how do i get rid of em...? i get shivvers with i see them bombarding my bubbas.. much respect Ele

I want to make a big compost heap, but I'm not sure what nitrogen source I can find in suitable quantities. I can get plenty of sawdust from a sawmill for carbon, but my household scraps and grass cuttings just aren't enough. Can anyone give me some pointers as to what to use and where I can find it (I live in southern Tasmania)

OK.Here's my problem.I would like to start growing in the spring,and I need to know what strain would be the best for my area. I live in a woodland area with lots of hills and very rocky soil(I'm talking soil that you need a pick axe to dig in).During the spring there is typically a lot of rain.Yeild isn't really a big concern,because I just need enough to get myself and two other people through the year.I need something that is pretty sturdy,can deal with temperatures from just slightly above freezing to hot summer temperatures,and handle a lot of water.Also something that can grow in slightly shady conditions would be ideal,as concealment is an issue. Thanx in advance…

Hey guys ive just recently notcied that i have 2 males amung my crop and ive just recently placed them outside.. do u have any extra advice on helping these bubbas survive.. and will it still effect me indoor plants there like placed outside and fair distance from my indoor females.. and is it possably to turn a female clone into a male..? much recpect Ele:

I was asked this question, and I wasn't sure how to answer, so I have posted here to ask the question.... An friend has nice few nice Asian sativa strains growing outdoors, and noticed that couple are males that not yet the pollens have opened their flowers, but he wanted to keep the Outdoor Male pollens for his indoor indica crop for breeding purposes. He wanted to know: * How can he keep the outdoor pollens without affecting the female plants thru nature like winds, etc... ??? * Can he "cut" the male pollen branches before they open the "flowers/pollen" and put in a glass of water indoors away from the indoor growing area and they will open in glass of water?? …
