Outdoor Cannabis Cultivation

Hi all, Last growing season a mate gave me some seeds from South Australia and I planted them around here in western Victoria, they didnt grow so well and very slowly. So my question is what would be the best strain for a beginner grower in western victoria. Taking into consideration of yield and quality of the bud as well.. Cheers.

Hey everybody, im planning to start growing this year but I do not know when the season is for sydney. I got a bag full of seeds from a mate which said that they'll be plenty to grow. But i only want to have around 1 plant, maybe 2 the most. Well this is my first time growing and I really dont know what to do because I though that they are like regular plants but by looking around for guides etc, they look pretty confusing as I saw that you need different types of soils, mixtures etc. Also does anybody know if people will be able to find out, as im pretty paranoid if neighbours might see it or smell it by accident. Thanks.

OK so im doing my third grow, but this time i have moved house. i have a bit of a dilemma with the sun... how much direct sun is enough i will get sun on my ladies from about 8am to 1 pm so roughly 5 hours but is this enough?? oh im in Adelaide to so its nice and hot. any help is appreciated. cheers

what is the best fertilizer to use for when plant is growing and what do i switch to when its in flowering mode??im growing outdoors in sa

Hey guys, For this years crop I want to keep my presence around it to a minimum. So for a watering system I'm thinking a 240L wheelie bin, with a tap fitted at the bottom. I think you can purchase these, but I'm just going to make my own. Off the tap I'm going to have an electronic tap timer which you can set to water for the amount of time you want each day. Or every few days. These systems are about $50 or less off eBay for a quality one. I'll also need hose or pipe coming off the tap to the various plants. Is this a good idea? Just want to know if there's any flaws in my planning really. Cheers (:

G'day everyone, I'm wanting to do my first grow and i understand that right now is the time to plant outdoors. I'm thinking about pick and mix some seeds. With my no experience I'm wanting to know what would you guys want to grow outdoors. I'm looking for the normal simple things, big yield and good tasting buds. Just looking for something that's easy to grow and likes the outdoors. I've had white widow bud before and i really liked that smoke. Would that like the outdoor qld environment? Thanks in advance everyone, this site is a great read.

So after about 8 weeks of flowering under 6x24w cfl's, due to some pretty strange and scary circumstances, my two girls had to go. Not worth risking my freedom for tho I guess, anyway I couldn't bare to get rid of them completely, so they have moved outdoors to a safer location, but down South we have had horrible weather and even frost for the past week. I have checked them once and they are definitely being over watered thanks to the rain and the frost isn't helping things! What i wanted to ask was IF they survive these few weeks, how will they cope with the shift from flower back to veg and how will this affect the end product?? Any advice appreciated!

Hi, I couldn't find anything about this on google or using search so ill go right ahead and ask. This will be my first grow, outdoors. I'm wondering if it's possible to grow mother plants from seeds right now, let them grow outdoors and have them ready for cloning by the start of the season (sep-oct)? How mature do the mother plants have to be to start cloning? Is this possible, or do they HAVE to be grown indoors under lights? I ask because growing indoors isn't an option for me. Cheers
