so far for my outdoor growing i have:

- DuPont 6'x50 landscape weed defense
- chicken wire and lumber to set up fence
- perlite
- nuetral or 3 month slow release soil
- tomato food miracle grow
- bloom booster
- soil ph testing kit

am i missing anything important?

yes, simplicity.

don't make outdooring growing anymore complicated than it has to be. if someone happens upon the crop, whether it be on your land or off, you want plausible deniability. and i would seriously recommend that you add 'land rover' to the list, cuz i think its a bad idea to plant on your own property, out in the open, as you seem to be thinking about doing. if this is your property then you should at least set-up a makeshift greenhouse to obscure visibility.

preferably find a place not on your property that has decent soil, so that all it needs is fertilized with a chemical water soluble fertilizer a few times throughout the season. and deer and rabbit repellant if you forego the fencing as i have suggested. and insect repellant like 'sevin' no matter which way you do, applied weekly, and after each rain.

the M.G. for tomatoes is just fine for the outdoor grow.

yea its not on my property, and it is hidden in a forrest. so what your saying is rather than setting up a fence get animal repelents?

deer can mow down some pretty big plants... and they like ganja... but by the time your plant is about 4 feet tall it has enough cystolith hairs to be a bit less palatable. Start early (immediately) with the deer and rabbit repellant cuz rabbits love baby ganja.

if its not your property... its your call as to whether or not you want to set up a fence. plausible deniability (about it possibly being a natural or untended grow) goes right out the window, and it would see to draw more attention to the plants as well, having a fence around them.

Till the soil in the garden, treat with dolomite lime, do this preferably several weeks before plants are introduced.

Several cubic yards of peat moss to aid drainage and add aeration to the soil.

No perlite, you don't want to advertise.

alright. ill probly stick with the replents and forget about the fence. thanks for the help

"What grow room?"

as for the fence, that seems like a very bad idea, sure it MIGHT keep away some animals, but it WILL attract somebody who might just be walking through the forest your growing in. without a fence they prob wont even know thier weed plants
