planting in the ground makes for bigger plants usually as long as conditions are met. but you should always dig up the soil to aerate it and to help with watering and root growth speed. its a proven fact time and time again, they JUST do better that way. pots work well but make your plant easy pickings. For EVERYONE not just you in flowering. and all the dumb asses these days will smoke the damn leaves off ur plant before it flowers. lol |

what ko is saying is a 7 or 8 inch hole is a great place to plant a dead hamster but to grow worth while pot it needs more root space. about 1 meter across and knee deep is good for starters

if you grow in the ground the plants could grow slower, due to the consistency of the soil. Plants grow ALOT faster in extremely light soil, and soil from outside is generally really hard. I recomend if you do put them in the ground, is to use compost (you can search craigslist and get it for free) and dig a hole of it. Or mix it with your outdoor dirt

That's why I use contractor bags. It creates a pot in the ground. Roots don't like heat and the pots will raise your soil temp in the summer if they are above ground. there are techniques for insolating you pots too if the ground is too hard -- but I won't go into that here. The hole keeps things cool, and the bags promote forcing as well as keep your environment clean and cool. Surrounding soil is not a great idea to use. For optimum performance, use mix and feed your plants from a clean slate.
peace. I cover all this in my video (had to get that in there). Last edited by browndirtwarrior; 03-26-2008 at 09:10 PM.. |

Dig i big fucking hole and fill it with the soil you'd use for an indoor grow. You will be amazed.

no bad trips here just going out of my way to let the other newbs (other than you here) know that your advice was terrible. Quote:
maybe you shouldent give advice under the influence of marijuana until your system builds up enough tolerance to handle thought patterns correctly? the roots should not be left to just go their own.... They WILL do poorly then. and brown dirt warrior is right i believe. soil bags are an excellent choice for any outdoor grow. and they cost like $2 for 10 bags........ |

soil bags are a good idea...
i used five gallon buckets for my outdoor grow last year. They dry out much faster, are way more noticable (even painted). Alot of people say they dig holes and put the buckets in the holes to make them less noticeable but where i live 3 feet down and it's clay.. The water just lingers in the hole and soaks into your bucket. I put out like a dozen five gallon buckets in the spring last year dug holes all around and put the buckets in them.. Came back like a week later to plant and at least half the holes i dig for the buckets were totally full of water. Needless to say i didnt use any of the holes. This year i'm digging holes and replacing the dirt w/ composted dirt. I'm digging holes that take about 15 gallons of soil and 5 gallons of mulch. Going two plant two per hole in hopes that i will end up w/ a female in most of my spots. Sorry for rambling i'm high i would mos def go for putting them in the ground tho |
