First outdoor grow 2017!

Hey everyone, first year outdoors for me will be my second year growing but 3rd year of learning haha. Put these seeds in some coco earliest was may 5 and latest was may 10. Let them sprout for about 2 weeks than transplanted into a 25 75 mix of our sanctuary soil blend and promix with pearlite. Avoided feeding any nutrients just about this whole time getting away with foliar sprays of epsom etc.Grown under a 450 double ended for awhile and now that and a 600 watt metal halide as they got too spaced out. Room temps stay around 78-80 lights on and drop alot at night 68 we pull in fresh air throughout the day Anyways heres a pic from 5/29 these strains are 1x Greencrack(possible fem), 1x Deadhead Og (Fem), 10xSuper Silver Haze (fem), 8x Brian berry cough(Reg), 7x cheesequake (Reg), 17x Gelato ("Fem" buddy used colloidal silver and pollinated itself"), 5x Lemon skunk (fem), 10x White widow( Half from growers choice and half from seed shop), 10x Ak-47 (Fem), and 2 harlequin gdp clones (cbd). Just purchased a few purple chem and la cookies having them sprout now. These plants are going to be headed outside around june 20th still setting up the property.

5-29

6-14 so were all caught up. Curious if these look good size for their age I have avoided all if any nutes so far letting it eat off the soil. I wonder do growers prefer fem or reg aside from trying ti breed your own strains i was curious ti the appeal of regular seeds. I will be doing some out at a friends property and dont want to ruin his whole crop lol

Day 2 of hardening off for hour a day direct sunlight, it beats them up pretty good only takes about 2 hours to snap back in doors, anyways heres the ladies praying to the sun gods haha. I cant wait to get them out in their natural environment. Indoor growing doesnt do it for me for some reason.

You can see those tall beasts in there those are some of the brians hoping their not male as theyre much bigger than the rest.

Shot of our bottom pad the biggest. Been a long 2 months very excited to see what this year will bring. Thanks for watching

That is a big grow man.Be careful with those reg seeds.The apoctoliptco I'm growing are regular too.I got my eyes on them to pull any males.I plan on keeping the male(if I find one) for genetics.I also have 2 Ak-48 and 3 other apoctoliptco going.They were all planted with in a week of each other.

Yea I hear you have a two week gap between the two for sexing. We arent going to bring them out until we clone each regular and find out for sure. Dont want to worry about it later or waste time on something not worthwhile lol.

I want to cut clones to sex my reg plants but I just do not have enough growth to cut one without talking to much of the plants.So,I will have to wait a little longer.Yeah this is the hard part about regular seeds...

Do you always use seeds indoors?

Ak-48 nice I wish I could have gotten more of a variety we had a late start. Still have to get another bunch of strains going for out there, you recommend any? We are going to run half seeds half clones see what we like best.

Honestly,this is my first real grow.I messed around outdoors when I was younger had some huge plants but they were stolen.I showed them off, like I said I was young.If I were to go outdoors I would have to gorilla grow it is not legit around my way and my neighbors suck.

Damn thats a shame. Plenty to go around to be stealing someones stuff.

Homemade tilapia fish fertilizer is ready will post a picture once I get it all bottled tommorow. What a pain to make I broke 2 blenders haha. Contemplating using tiny mullet or something next time so i can just mash the whole body, smaller bones etc.

Looks like you are busy! Good luck this season! Looks nice.

Thanks man, yes very. Hoping it all pays off in the long run haha. Ill be updating this you should stop by now and then. Take it easy good luck to you.

I use both seeds and clones ....I grow green house and also a few full outdoor so I don't have size restrictions ......I do reg seeds myself and fem seeds and clones .....don't worry to much about makes ....you'll have plenty of time to notice the makes and get rid if them before they become a problem .....just stay vigilant .....GL happy growing

Greenhouse is the best of both worlds, ive seen flower that you could of sworn came from indoors. What strains you running this year? Thanks I plan on cloning for sex, theyre about a month and a half old now is it true you have to wait 3 months for the plant to be sexually mature? Or can we clone when we have a top worthy of clipping then throw it into 12/12?

Looks good. Very lush and thriving.

You can clone at any time, it's dependant on if there is enough plant to take clones, we would start as soon as we could, numbers was the goal. Do you have raccoons, skunks, etc. there? Watch the fish nutrients, I've had really shitty luck with them due to animals digging up the plants. I really hope you've thought about what you'll need at the end to process those girls. Also we had way more success with clones for our big grows if only for consistency. Our last grow was overrun with rattlesnakes hiding under the pots lol.
