Ok. So I have a family and can't spend big money on an outdoorgrow. HHere's how I do it for less than 20$. First I only buy primo. I get about ten to twenty seeds a year. In February I catch a fish and put in bottom of five gallons bucket. I buy two bags of soil for two buckets. I retrieve black native soil. I mix the two bags of soil with native dirt. ( so far I've spent 10$) I buy shultz or Peters fertilizer. I put a fish at bottom of both buckets. I fill buckets up half way with soil mixture and fill to halfway mark with water. Now it's mud. I let it sit in Sun until March 1st. Then I buy 3$ worm casting and mix worm casting with soil and 1 tbsp of Peters or shultz fertilizer. I fill the buckets up the rest of the way with custom soil. Then I plant four seeds per bucket on March 1st. They grow..... no fertilizer until they are past seedling stage. Then I give them half a dose and feed every two weeks. Pull the males and you will have 1 or 2 females per 5 gallon bucket. Let it grow outdoor all summer long and bam!!! Buds all fall and winter. And it cost me 15-17 $ for an outdoor grow

I use a fillet fish carcass. But I use about 1/2 lb fish.. it's the original fish emulsion. I also let it decompose for at least a month in the mud mixture.

I haven't had different results from different fish. All fish seem to produce the same results. Burying fish under fruit trees and such is a "Florida lifestyle" since Europeans settled here.

Im a fan already, the more stinky the better, right now ive been blasting them with compost tea, an emulsion of rotten fish, buffulo shit, and insect remains. Most growers I know have already pulled their shit but im waiting until they go through a few nice frosts. have not even seen an amber trich yet. Yesterday i was given a box full of praying mantises i let them run about in my garden, biggest problem i have now is birds chilling on my trees, shitting on my buds and creating mold......bastards....

i have a $37 dollar grow going right now. the true cost is only $12 or so though.

i used two bags of roots organic ($10 each) which i had as excess, bought a 10 gallon fabric container ($10), put a clone i had laying around into the container ($5 if you had to buy it), and have just watered mostly with a very occasional feeding of maxsea (about $2 worth of nutes i already had).

looks like it's gonna give me about a pound. no joke. didn't put it out until july 1st either.

I had three seeds I planted around August 1st. This is the only one. It's about 2 ft tall. And has about 8 grams after finished and cured. Imagine if I started March 1st

I guess its good if you need to see how green your thumb is without spending a lot of money, but with the price of bud you might as well put some money in and get more/better in the end. It is definatly worth it. And more than one plant in a pot isn't the best idea, I did it once and ended up chopping one just because they were competing too much. GL

My mom uses fish parts in a lot of her flower pots and such. But she found that if you just stick an intact dead fish in there, you reap no nutritional rewards til at least a year later. It needs time to break down and decompose to release the nutrients contained in the dead fish. She now hacks the fish pieces up into a thick emulsion paste and stirs it evenly into the soil before potting. It works right away because its already for the most part broken down and evenly distributed so the roots get some right away.
