Outdoor in a pot, organic. Using an organic potting soil that's quite similar in composition to Ocean Forest, extra worm castings and perlite. Will be feeding with the Blue Mountain Organics line and some supplemental hydrolyzed fish and seaweed fertilizer.Yo, What setup are you using bro?

Not trying to get too crazy for my first time, and in all things I subscribe to the KISS philosophy.
Agreed on that, plenty to read, and learn - if you need or want book recommendations or have issues with plant diagnosis... please do not wait a week before you post.

I will absolutely be reading and absorbing more knowledge as I go, this place is a great resource...the people don't seem half bad either.
For sure I will.Agreed on that, plenty to read, and learn - if you need or want book recommendations or have issues with plant diagnosis... please do not wait a week before you post. Pics immediately will help us fix your ladies before they're getting to the certain death stage.
As long as you're prepped for 2 major headaches, the rest should fall into place. Those 2 are spider mites, and aphids.For sure I will.
I've got a decent handle on outdoor gardening, so I'm hoping that experience pays off here.
Thanks for the replies, that initial encouragement goes a long way.
Hopefully I never see a single one, but I'll be ready to take care of them. I'm more concerned about cats eating my plants than just about anything else...tons of strays around here, not to mention my own.As long as you're prepped for 2 major headaches, the rest should fall into place.

Understood, the last thing you want is cats playing with your crops.. there's methods for this though - you can scare them without doing damage if you don't have to deal with high winds / heavy gusts.. and your plants are in pots on a solid surface. Set mouse traps and put them upside down near the plants. The first time one is stepped on, it'll snap without doing damage and it scares the shit out of most of them. (I've only seen 1 Maine Coon happen to hit 5 or 6 of them and completely ignore the noise and sudden movement, as an aside.)Hopefully I never see a single one, but I'll be ready to take care of them.

Upside down traps work awesomely for outdoors with solid ground under them.. same with indoors.. and with indoors, I'd also use just a lil' bit of chili powder - first bite will send them running for a water dish.. and they will not return for round 2 - rest assured. hahahahaHaha. That's a great idea...mouse traps. Awesome, I wouldn't have thought of that.
