Ok so I got a couple of 50 gal rain barrels and hooked them into an 8 way driper line manifold. The flow is adjustable

It depends on where you live. I live in the pretty much the northern most part of the us and I get a ton of sun in the late summer. Even september 1st Im clocking about 14.5 hours of visible light a day. I have to keep the girls in a greenhouse at the end to let them finish naturally. If you are...

You're right about the mulch, just added some. Helps with water but also a hidden benefit is helping to keep bugs away, like roundplanet said. Dont need to worry about ph change yet, but I will keep an eye out. I wont cheap out on mulch again in my climate. @roundplanet I buried a series of...

Thanks for the great idea, Hammer. Its going to work great for me since I dont need to worry about the law/stealth, growing legal medical. Although anyone growing out away from where they visit everyday should ALWAYS hide where they grow!! How did you decide where to dig? I have several...

My water table is only 10- 50 down (1 of the reasons I bought this property, BTW I grow legal medical) this is a great solution that wont help me right now but I might be able to drive this kind of well. Obviously couldnt be used for drinking but the plants would love the natural minerals. For...

Any outdoor farmers with some experience that can help with these other questions? I'd really like to know if I should add 4-6 in more black gold and remove the rest of the gal jugs. I know the roots like to spread out, but will promoting root growth with 4-8 weeks left of veg keep them from...

I realized my mistake of 24/0 on the first round. The 10 new ones are on a 18/6. I will tie down in the next set of pix on my journal next weekend. Frost broke really late this year in late may (we even had a Hail storm 5/30). Normally frost starts October The days are still 13 hours long in...

Hello all I have a few 2-3 footers rooted in the ground since may. I live near the canadian border on the west side of the cascades. I still have 10 clones to go in the ground. Is it too late to plant them? I was under the impression that I could veg until sunlight naturally flowered (mid to...

I have several 2-3 footers that I can only visit every 2 weeks. I have been overwatering when I see them, which I know isnt good. I need to figure out how and how much to water. I live in a medical state so I dont need to worry about the law, but I still haul in my own water. I only have 6-8...

Thanks Im sure I messed up by leaving the girls under 24/0 so when I put them out they started to flower. Im more concerned with giving more room for the roots by cutting off the rest of the jug and adding several cu ft of black gold. Ive only got about 6-8 weeks left of veg and would like to...

I bought from CL several times always hit and miss but on the west side of the mountains you got to work with what you can get.

Im in Wenatchee and growing Purple pineberry and Dutch Treat. Any clone trades? Or anything for donation?

I planted these girls late in may b/c of elevation and late arrival of spring. I have a grow journal posted on this site are a couple pics pre transplant in may and also of what they look like now. Not only do they have 1 blade (A couple might finally be going back to 3/5 after last check) but...
