Outdoor Cannabis Cultivation

Hi can some one please give me an indication of why my plants are always tall with large gaps between branches. Does this mean less yield?

gunna plant a couple late seasoners n have heard river sand is good to add to your soil. If so how much n can I source some directly from a river or do I need to buy the washed stuff

Starting to think this growing is harder than I thought. Sick of getting under strength hermes every year. Is this male? Starting getting hairs two days ago. But the tips look like they have little pods mixed in with the hairs. I have another from a different strain 1m away and i don't want it to get stuffed up as well. The thing that pisses me off is that every year that i get a shitty yield I go without cause I don't know anyone on the GC that can sell to me. I grow out of necessity. Please help!

I'm new at this, need to know what i need besides a good Location and seeds. like when to start growing plus anyone that know steath out in the bush like camndo/camouflage ideas would be good to know i look forward to what everyone has to say thanks guys

Grow-vember: Very impressed with how cold tolerant this one is - first time i've had a plant that didn't stop growing altogether when nights are real cold (like 10 and below). And very vigorous too! Fingers crossed she's a girl

Hi all, I have a bit of a problem with my girls growing in the NSW bush. Actually its a major problem really. I am having insect attack on the ladies that I have never seen before, and I've been doing this since ummm, forever, 40 odd years.. There are dark brown robust beetle looking things eating the bark on my ladies. They are not in plague proportions, just a bug here and a bug there.. Of course I pick em off and squash them. But I can't be there every day, and they are so savage they will destroy a largish plant in a day. They are only eating the bark, nothing else, where they have been, the stem is void of bark for a few inches, effectively ringbarking each stem in …

Hello Guys and Gals, Got a question i'm hoping someone can help me with. Ive got 2 plants growing and i've noticed some spots appearing on the leaves. Some of the seem discoloured whilst another plant has 3 black spots? Really strange. I'm guessing the yellow looking spots are from insects (Ive seen a few green fly's hanging around my baby so that could be the issue. But the black ones are a complete mystery. Any advice would be appreciated.

I just found this great site, and thought I'd share it. If you scroll down and click the link "full months Sun" it shows a nice graph with detailed day light hours. www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/australia/melbourne

Going to start a couple of autos in late October to be finished by January. I got some feminised photo seeds as freebies, one of which is a Chocolope which is known to be a tall Sativa. If I start this in January will it have enough veg time to be worthwhile but stay small?

Curious to know if anyone on the forum has used purely mushroom compost to grow or transplant into. If so what results did you have?

Might not acheive anything, but this is getting out of hand and I'm out of ideas, so I'm asking for help, advice, guidance or whatever. So far this outdoor season everything just wants to go into flower for me, but it's veg time and that's what I'm looking for. Fair enough, first lot were clones from mature mums that I put out a bit earlier than I should, and an already flowering seed plant that I put out mid August. But I now have seedlings that were put out mid September that didn't hit sexual maturity till early/mid October, and a revegged clone that I put out late October. The nights have been less than 12hrs since all of these have been put outside, and getting …
