Couple Questions from a first timer (pics)

here are my ladies just before going outside (I know its a bit late), they are kush clones and are about 3-4 weeks old

Bertha


Kaylee



This is my first grow, so i have a few questions
remember....outdoor grow

-is it fine to spray organic pesticides on the plant during veg and/or flower?

-is it fine to water in the dark?

-should i wait a bit longer before i start feeding them fert?

Thanks

1) most pesticides are straight (foxfarm dont bug me), do this in the morning though, especially if budding to prevent rot.

2) yes, its better, the sun can heat the water to dangerous temps in some cases harming the roots.

3) depends on the soil, many outdoor grows get no fertz and are just fine. Give them some good soil to build roots in, then maybe fert in a month if they need.

what do u mean by straight? (organic?)

and thanks love learning new stuff everyday

another question
-slugs....how do u keep them away?

BLAZEEEEEEEEEEEE

One slug disposal method, shallow pans of beer around area to be protected. Slugs are drunks and can't climb out, thus drowning.
Like pie tins/pans.

alright will putting out a beer can with under half the beer left do the same thing??
my friend told me to bury it in the ground with just the top sticking out

I don't think slugs can ooze up the side of a can . . . thus the shallow pans. Didn't read whole post. Oops. yeah, the buried beer can could work, though I suspect you'll have to replace it a few times?
