This grower friend of mine turned to meth
and started offing all his supplies and neglected seedlings. I was the first one he called and it ended up being my lucky day.
I scored a 1000 watt switchable ballast and bulb for 100 bucks and an 1/8 and got 6 very sad seedlings that were about 6 weeks old at the time. When I brought them home 3 weeks ago I transplanted them and put em in the veg room for about 2 weeks with no change at all. So a week ago I decided to quit messin with em a put them outside as a last half assed effort just to see what would happen.
They like it out there and I have done nothing special. I have given them nasty cali water with ph above 8 and mixed old coco from male plants into existing dirt, which leads me to a question.....why can out door plants be so much more resiliant to ph matters than indoor plants?
One reason I ask this is because the ol' grower accross the street has grown outdoors for years and has never done anything to his soil or ph and always has massive unhindered growth......what the hell is up with the whole ph thing indoors versus outdoors?
