Hello everyone, Im new to the site but not to growing. This is my very first grow journal though. I will be growing 5 different strains this year Maple Leaf Indica, Purple Power, Northern Lights, Red Shiva, and White Widow. This is my first attempt with WW, and I hope its going to do well outside.

My soil has been hot composted that consists of rouhly 6 parts AlphAlpha pellets, 3 parts Rock Phosphate, 3 parts Green Sand. Those are not exact measurments cause i usually eyeball it lol but it works great!

We are at about 3 weeks in the ground. MLI and PP are 1 week older then all the others. I choose to plant early, i guess its something about those 10-12 ft monsters


This season has started off very very rocky for me... the first time I feed the seedlings, some animal proceeded to turn over all my cups trying to find the fish smell!!! I managed to only lose a few plants, but it really put them in shock. Then only 2 days after trasplanting them to outdoor I had a run in with a vicious leaf eating bug problem... I finally killed off everything with some diatomacious earth . On top of that we have had some very unusual weather this Spring. Its usually about 85 here this time of year, but for some reason its barely getting into the 70's. The grass in my yard hasnt even been growing the past few weeks. But the weather seems to be getting back to normal and things are progressing once again.

Questions and comments are welcome.

Still not happy with the weather... Lots of storms and tornadoes, more then usual. Oh and Sunday night it got down to 43! Not normal around here... oh well i guess what doesnt kill them only makes them stronger hehe

coming along very nicely!

Thanks for the comments guys. haha dont worry im not giving up the journal.

I usually wait until they are about 2-3 weeks from seed before i transplant them outside. As long as the plant is healthy it should survive the transplant.

Ill get some new pics with my crappy 4.1 pixel camera today if it stops raining lol.

Nope... soil was hot composted so its already high in nutrients, thats why i dont use any ferts. Dont want to take a chance and burn them or push them to nute lock. Flushing plants in the woods suck ass....

Although in the past i have tried experimenting with a foliar spray that contains Nitrozyme Growth Plus to help induce flowering, but i dont know if it helped or not lol.

This is my last outdoor grow, im currently setting up a S.O.G in and ebb & flow

What do you suspect is your average yield per plant outdoors from your past experiences?

I'm kinda confused about topping/fimming plants. Is this necessary outdoors if youre not worried about size?
