Outdoor Cannabis Cultivation

Hey friends I am in the process of planning my first ever grow and it's going to be outdoors. I'm planning to grow one or two plants in pot pots for my backyard. I have some questions that hopefully you guys can clear up. 1. Is there a quality soil mix I can just buy from Bunnings that would be suitable? I've researched some soil mixes and they've alot of ingredients. Right now my plan is to buy a retail soil mix and adding in perlite. 2. How much do I have to consider bad weather? Should I do anything special if there's a heavy storm or its an abnormally cold night? Thanks all

Guerrilla growers Hears my trip I started a small experiment using a 200 watt solar panel, a regulator, 160 amp hour battery, 12 volt digital timer, led lights all wired up myself and polytube greenhouse at the site. To get a early start to the season and interrupting the dark cycle using the lights to extend the days and to trick the plant into thinking that the days are long like in spring. from research light lumens don't have to be that strong to trick the plant about 3 times the stronger than moon light. The whole thing is to get bigger guerrilla outdoor monsters and the best way to do that is by starting earlier in the season. anyone think it,s a goer. Cocopete

Hello all - virgin poster here looking for some advice. My second ever grow has produced this triffid. I think it's beginning to flower so I'm after some advice on what to fertilize with and how much to use. My girl is about 6 and a half feet high and approx 2 metres across. ORGANIC NUTEZ PREFERRED thanks in advance

This is my first grow, bagseed. Started very late in the season (mid January) knowing yields wouldn't be good. The plant is budding in a greenhouse, and outside temperatures now are as low as -2 and as high as 20 (inland NSW near the snowies). Buds are light and fluffy and not very developed. This grow was a bit of an experiment, but I'm still hoping to get something out of it. Should I harvest now, or is there room in the season for extra growth before things get too grim? What is the lowest temperature Cannabis can flower at?

Hey guys this is one of my first outside seasons and I ordered a seeds from a http://original-ssc.com (Btw this is also first years I'm using this website and I'm glad I found it, they offer many gifts with almost every order and even opportunity to earn some free credits and has a huge selection). I want ask your opinion about carmerlo fast seeds, could it grow in a Lithuania (In summer, here sun shines 12/12 and temperature is from 19-35 C). Anyway I'm taking risk and ordering and also planning to try some others strains, so please comment&follow my blog. I smoked, I will smoke and even know where to buy some

Hey guys, Are there any Auto flowering cannabis strains that can still grow at this time of year in a subtropical environment (Far North Coast NSW)? I am not interested in big yields, just a couple of plants for personal use. Thanks

Hey guys long time looker I'm gonna be doing my first ever outdoor grow on my farm this year I plan on doing around about 150 plants that my mates is supplying me I have a few questions though 1. I'm located in the sa mallee which has a light brown Sandy soil I will be putting sheep poo from my shearing shed in the rings will that be enough? 2. I have teed into the water pipe for troughs and things will I have to add any nutrients to the plant? As the water is high in copper and zinc? 3. I don't know what variety the plants are but how much could I expect off of each plant? I don't smoke weed I just need the money Ahah Thanks for your help guys it's a great forum Jeremy

just kidding why would I waste my coin on them haha. (no offense to anyone out there ) I started like 8 hindu Kush f2's in January, only one female my luck haha Here she is as of like last week (old pic) Potting mix is something I whipped up, Majority pine bark fines (composted), 10-15% coco, and roughly same amount of perlite. So i am growing in majority mulch haha I added synthetic CRF's npk 19-2-10 (from memory something like that) as well as some potash in the final mix. I have not fertigated, although I added some seaweed/humic when spraying for whitefly. Actually getting some decent resin production already. Cheers

For all of you who grow outdoors in suburbia: How do you hide your plants? I've just harvested my little tree. Possibly a bit premature but the end product is pretty good and I got about 21oz off it, so I don't really want to complain My problem was that it was getting so bloody big that I could not hide it anymore. It grew in a garden bed next to a 7' fence but that wasn't quite enough and I had to put a net over it and tie it down before it was flowering. This kept it below the fence line but when the buds started to get bigger, they too came dangerously close to the top of the fence. All up this little beauty was an easy 2.5m tall, with buds even more. Not an easy t…

Hi guys I have been researching alot when is the best time to harvest. I am a bit confused wether my girl is ready yet? There has been alot of bad weather at the moment (wind and rain) Do you guys think she is ready?

Hey guys, Got a couple (for now) of auto seeds on the way, and ideally I want to have the harvest done by the end of October. Not liking my chances, but will it be too early to get them started in the next couple of weeks? Outdoor grow, inside isn't happening at all. I know I won't get the yield I would starting them a couple of months later with extra daylight and heat, but will it be even worth bothering yet? I'm in Sydney since that info will help. I've got a heated propagation tray so germinating isn't an issue, although from there I know it won't be the easiest. Also I would look at getting a cheap greenhouse (I'm talking $20 from bunnings) to help with heat, and pr…
