    Default Question about Yield

    Last year I grew one barnery's pineapple chunk fem outside. Problems were below:

    1.) Spot I grew in only had about 2-3 hours direct sunlight
    2.) Grew in pot that was only about 1 foot deep and soil was miracle grow (not good soil for weed I heard)
    3.) Never used Nutes only water

    This all lead to only 9 grams


    THis year I plan on digging a bigger hole in the ground, use the correct soil, and use the correct nutes. However I'm STILL GONNA HAVE ONLY 2-3 HOURS OF SUNLIGHT..


    What could I get off the plant instead of the little 9 grams ??????

    Don't waste all your hard work. Your plants will never be what they can be if you don't give them the minimum of their needs.

    Like others say above....
    "2-3 hours direct sunlight" so the plants will have 6-8 hours of indirect sun ?

    MG soil, perfect for you and your outside grow, MG not your problem...works fine for outside growing newbies... Worked for me for outside plants grow...
    Add Nutes/Ferts at 1/2 strength [or less] to start...
    Spend more time with your plants...
    Learn to grow, what better place than your own back yard...
    Now if you could add an inside 600w HID to your mix for the hours that the plant doesn't see direct sun...
    Grow big= 18/6 of veg in full light... not 2 hours of sun...
    Your plant will grow, lots of peeps grow small plants....you'll just be one of them...

    "So...with all the flushing going on, I was wondering, how do you get all the plant matter out of the toilet?"
    This must be where the term 'That's some really good sheiot' came from...

    actually my dad has about four of his plants on the side of the garage every year, and they only receive (10:00am-1:30pm) 3 to 3 1/2 hrs of direct light during veg and they get up to 6 and 7ft. it depends on a lot of things other than direct sun! such as strain, location, the time you planted in ground vs when your seeds sprouted or clones rooted. and if you were using clones vs seeds etc. ,so in my opinion 3 1/2 hrs. direct can do wonders if you tend to your garden correctly and make good decisions.

    Well I got a couple of different strains that Im gonna start from seed inside until they get about 6 inches tall. Im then gonna plant the same strains in different areas and see what area turns out to be the best. I can't imagine any location in my yard will I will get more than 4-5 hours cause my grandma grows flowers and is always walking around.

    Look for strains that excel in low light. Northern light big bud seems to me to enjoy being farther then other plants I have from the bulb an for less time. I bet many strains are this way since marijuana truly is a diverse species
