Outdoor Cannabis Cultivation

heya guys. recentley planted 3 plants all female. been planted now for like....5 weeks maybe and are not very big... prolly cos the stupid bastards are budding like mad already!! they get heaps of sun (when the thing decides to shine). i live in WA and the spring here has been crappy and we have had hardly any good quality weeks of sunshine. my plants are about 20cm tall and have heads on em with hairs poppin out everywhere. so im guessing that growth has somewhat stalled because all the energy is being placed on bud production. hmmmm. so im hoping that when it starts to heat up a bit the plants will go back into veg? or will they just be permascrewed. it would be a pit…

hey all about a month ago i put 8 clones outdoors, they started to bud, so i had to put them back indoors under 24/7. Finally re-veged, anyway thats another story.. Now i have just had to rip my 2nd attempt outdoor this season because i had all hermaphrodite seeds. Now i am getting 10 clones within the week, i was wondering whats the best method to put them outdoors to keep them growing. Well not nesacerally thease clones wont go outdoors, but the clones i will soon be taking will. im in victoria too so if anyone else does this down here some advice would be handy.. ive thought about slowly lowering the light hours but i rekon they would just start to bud. che…

BLUEBERRY AND WHITEBERRY.........Has anyone grown these outdoors,,if so how did they go,,,,much differance to indoors or greenhouse

hey folks ive f***ed up once again with multiple problems for my outdoor grow this season. i currently have 8 clones now ready to take alot of clones off. if i get enough clones going and about 1 1/2 ft tall before i put them outside late december ish, will they continue to veg untill february ish' when they will start to bud ? or will they bud as soon as i put them from indoors to outdoors ? im down in vic by the way. and im saying february as all my plants have started stretching and budding allways around february. cheers

Hi All just need little bit advice, and as u all seem to have a lot of knowledge.... (im still learning & experimenting) When Using a slow release fertilizer, is there still a chance that it could burn the plant? and if you do burn a plant is there anyway to help the plant? and also, When growing outdoor is it really necessary to use blood & bone or Sesol? and one more question. (sorry) Is there a correct way to tranplant without damaging the roots or stunning the plant. because i need to put my transplant my plant to a bigger pot. and i dont want to damage her!....so does anyone have any methods or advice. Thanks

Hi all. In the indoor outdoor medical growers bible, it states that groath basically comes to a standstill in temps above 29 deg. C I set up my thermomometer near my spot and in direct sun, air temp is at 30C, and were still not even in summer.. Is there anything i can do to help? Have those of you growing in hot sunny locations experianced this as a problem? The way i see it is that in the peak of summer here in australia, unless your plants are practically in full shade, the temps gunna be exceeding this 29C that they supposedly stop growing at. Should i change my spot to try get more shade (not planted yet), or should i stick with my full sun spot? Elevation is at …

Ok i have been planning a pretty elaborate outdoor grow for sometime, i have the resources at the location for set and forget. People on the forum have been very kind so far as to help with variety selection. Now the temperatures are getting high enough in this higher altitude region, and the risk of frost almost gone, i think its time to put the plan into motion. i have used vegetative FR/NR ratios from satelite data taken in summer to identify high moisture areas. I have logged GPS co-ordinates and my hiking pack folding shovel, ferts and such are ready. By the way when i do this (next 4-6 weeks) i plan to open a thread and log my experience with few words and many phot…

Hi all i'm a very kean grower and have been for some time i'm also a scientist. Today i would like to talk about a watering method known as Partial root drying (PRD) While doing some research for a client i came across a paper that was released in the CSIRO australian journal of experimental agriculture about ten years ago. I think this paper has huge relevence to outdoor weed growers. The paper explored an experimental method of watering grape vines. Two drippers were fed to each vine one on each side of the vine so that approx half the root system could be watered at a time. l The experiment aimed at watering half the root system at a time while leaving one …

I was a little suprised to see a few people this year ask if it's possible to grow throughout winter. Maybe they were really new to growing? Maybe they just hadn't ever considered it. It's no different to using a flowering cupboard though,it's just the whole country is the flowering cupbaord at that time of year. You still need a veg area to do it but of course. Anyway, thought I'd post a pic periodically of what to expect of planting outside through winter. I've just got myself a little greenhouse, and barring any problems with neighbors or what not, it should be alright in the backyard. The plant is a clone of redman x Mullum Madness I was handed by a freind, it'…
