trees in the trees...south florida

[wizim]

they went in the ground (sprouted) on 4/25ish. theyve been in the dirt for three weeks. should i have waited a little longer?

 

[wizim]

btw...those are 3gal pots so they are a little bigger than they would look in 5gal.

well hell fire a redneck in the everglades lol.. dude i do a outside grow but i have oak,poplar,and pine, did you ever think that the foilage from the plants are way different colors and alot of helo's in fla. but fuck em all grow till your all growed out..lol any who here is the way we do it in the hills.. we use a pully system with brown rope (looks like a dead vine) that way all you have to do is un-hook it and bring it down to baby your baby.. like i said we have alot of different tree's to use but its a great idea in the end ..FYI BECAREFUL OF BIRDS i had 3 get tore up from crows so watch the feather fuckers OH AND WE USE CAMMO BUCKETS
KEEP ON GROWIN..

are the containers gonna hold? I mean theres gonna be alot of weight in there. hope it all goes well

 

[wizim]

i hope so. once they go into the tree (this friday) i will support them from the bottom with metal selving brackets.

 

[Marktwang]

cool concept. sub'd

 

[wizim]

the girls are getting drenched. weve had lots of rain here the last couple of days. i hope they like it!

they should be fine in the rain, if anything you should be doing your rain dance. I am using the same ferts as you, the alaskan fish fertalizer and the Alaskan Morebloom. They are great products you can use the fish fert on your plants now, they are old enough, but use a half tbsp instead of a full one! Also animals will dig up your plants if they are not in the tree's yet! So dont fert till your plants are safe from critters..The Morebloom is good too, im already using it on some of my grapevines, they love it!

Sick thread. Where do you guys get the Morebloom? They've stopped selling it around here. The alaskan fish is still like $5 a bottle at Lowe's or HomeDepot, but no one in town sells the Morebloom - and that's the really good stuff - much better than the fish.

Topping > LST in my experience... Topping + LST = Madd yield.

Awesome. Inspiring. Eureka!(Areca)

they went in the trees today.

 

[wizim]

will squirrels dig them up? we have squirells and opossums.

[growone]

that is a seriously nice pic, lots of green

 

[cindysid]

We have lots of squirrels, opossums, raccoons, etc. but the only time I ever had any digging was when I used the fish emulsion. My dog dug it up a little.

 

[wizim]

maybe ill set out a dummy to see if it gets meesed with.

 

[DAKUSHMAN 49]

what u need to build is a tree house with a lil porch you can grow on.. now that would be cool..

nice grow, im going to try something like this but not so high in the tree..

 

[wizim]

they are only about 7-8 feet off the ground. i can access them with a 4ft step ladder. the tree's are 30+ feet but i have the girls down low where its bushy to keep the pots out of site.

 

[wizim]

i added shelf brackets for more support yesterday. they are really starting to take off since being transplanted into larger pots and placed in the trees. lst is going good. they are growing in circles! lol!

 

[DAKUSHMAN 49]

I would think transplanting them into 8 gal buckets would be perfect and camo them by training the sounding trees/brush..

 

[Psychonaughtical]

One thing you could look into both for camouflage as well as having more grow area is using burlap sacks as grow bags and filling it with your soil mix.

Seal it up, cut a hole and transplant it. They fit easily into the tree branches, are hard to spot and allow a wider flatter space for your roots to grow which increases the area of your plant.

Not to mention, easy to water.
