UK - Outdoor growing '08

[SnowWhite]

Now this is what we need all summer! Lets hope for less rain than last year!

Note the sunrise/sunset times, it's nearly time folks!

Mine are going out in 2 weeks time! Guerilla Stylee! This is a first for me and I have little expectation of success, but I've just got to give it a go.

I'll be posting pics so you can see how I get on!

Anyone else got plans for outdoor grows this summer in the UK??

Well at least there is someone! You'd probably be ok to put them out now.....especially with all this lovely weather we're having....but I'd give it another week or two. Good luck man.

[SnowWhite]

Hey there,
finally some people on this side of the globe.
I actually thought i put mine in too late but they have been out for 4 weeks.
I am in Austria, but not from here. When i put them out as seedlings the weather was warmish and moist But has been great for 2 weeks now similar to you guys.

Nice to see more people doing outdoor grows in this part of the world. Just checked the forecast and this wonderful weather is gonna continue all next week too. A little cooler, but still really sunny! Might have to get mine out this week!

im just growing some ak47 in my garden, its not my first grow but hopefully this will be the first yeild! Any advice from you professionals?

My first grow this year, didnt decide to do it till a few weeks back so hopefully havent left it too late. Starting 20 feminized "the church" off indoors then will be transplanting them outdoors in a few weeks. Found a great a spot in the middle of nowhere thats almost totally unaccessable.

Got a shed load of soil to move there and have got to clear some of the undergrowth to make way for my badboys but liking the idea of letting nature do its work and taking the paranoia out of growin indoors.

Check out this link for a video of the strain im trying

WWW.GREENHOUSESEEDS.NL - Green House Seed Co. Amsterdam Since 1985

Will keep you all posted and get some more pictures uploaded as things progress

Lets try and get a Uk growers community going on here

 

[SnowWhite]

Weathers dropped to rain now.
Yeah i love the look of that Church strain. Im gunna get some of them seeds, they are great for humid weathers and for sure we get alot of that over in the uk.

 

[SnowWhite]

yeah. raining again! It's gonna rain on and off for the next couple of weeks and then summer will be back for June apparently....at least that's what they're saying for now on the BBC. But who really knows.

Hmmmmmmm. i need some sun, my seedling has been going for 11 days now and its taking its time with growth. Whats the best soil to use pal? also what nutes do you advise? its only my second grow, did 2 last summer out of bag seed and they budded but im aiming for big potent buds this year. Any advise?

11 days old and outside....in this gloom? Get them insdie if you can. Got any lights? Strip type flourescents/shop lighting is fine, or some CFLs will work too and will get them a bit stronger before you put them out. Try and do that if you can.

Soil...you can use any general purpose compost, it will do just fine. For nutes, again, anything you can get your hands on really. I use organic ferts, mostly seaweed or fish based products. Don't worry about nutes for a bit though. Try and get your babies strong indoors first. They will tell you when to feed them. Good luck!

Ahhhh i feel for you guys, sorry to hear the word "rain"
We are having lots of warm sun down here, been about 2 weeks straight now.
Yeah take em in if you can.

I wish I was in a position to grow some outdoors!

The last ones I tried were torn to shreds by wild retards about 4 weeks into flowering - such wasted potential!

13 outside which I planted about 4 weeks ago, sadly they aren't developing extremely quick though... on their second set of leaves. Got them all next to a small stream also

Apparently tomorrow (sunday 18th) will be a lovely day

It's been a bit dull here the past 3-4 days, my seedlings don't like it overcast, they constantly move to find the best light.
