My Bush G Grow....

Hey All ..... Welcome to my outdoor Aussie bush style Guerrilla grow...... I have been preparing the clones and some seedlings for about 6 weeks,,,,then yesterday we planted up the patch.... there are about 85 plants in the ground now...and we go back next week end to finish sorting out the irrigation and see how everyone is doing....
The thing is this is a m8's patch that he has run for 9 years... he is leaving the area next year and has asked me to help him do one more crop b4 he goes and hands the space on to me...... he has many rules...one is no phones ...my camera is in my phone so I have to use something else to take the bush shots.....so there will not be loads of photos for a while but I will recount my experience as well as I can using the type function in my mind..
these are the clones we planted out yesterday in the early stages of taking root... and the last pics are of the patch just after we arrived ,,,((I just had to get a sneaky pic or 2))











when we left it was completely planted out with clones and seedlings and there was palm leaves and shrubby branches stuck in the soil,, shading the young ones from the sun
and some of the terracing was reinforced and the fencing all rewired....
I just wanna say... I LOVE HANGING OUT IN THE BUSH

I'll try and keep youz all posted ,,,feel free to scribe and post relevant stuff in here and ask questions if they are relevant

nice one +rep, im looking to grow in aussie myself next year as well. some of those plants look a bit worse for wear (healthy in the third pic) good luck hope it all turns out good. ill be subscribed!

Hey smokobot ,,, yep the clones were abit overcrowded in there early life,,,we almost left it too late in the season to get enough out there to make the project worthwhile for my friend to even consider doing,((he usualily has 100 or so shiva clones))..
but they are fine now....
Did I say what we had in there yet..??
we got Big Bud,,Shiva skunk,,
nl#5/haze,,Orange Bud,,nl#5/haze X Orange bud,,*T's seeds and various mystery seeds....

*my m8's m8's seeds from his own breeding ((no idea what they are like))

kool, i love big bud its nice and chunky, the only big bud ive had (i was told it was big bud) had sorta a blue tinge to it and big and chunky nugs i got it off a dealer for a slimline ps2,

sounds like you got some other nice strains in there too. your grow area looks quite moderate not too hot which i imagine is a problem in some parts of aussie with getting water to the outdoor crops.

I'm sure it gets hot there.....but we have gravity fed water from the creek on battery timers......ingenious

Thats wicked, do you think you could get some pictures of the watering system? im interested because i wanna do the same sort of thing and i was told the trouble is getting water to the plants i can only hope for a spot next to a creek.

I'll try and take some next time I'm there

Sweeet,looks like a beauty of a spot,no shortage of sun by the looks of it.

Hey BB ,,, Howzitgoing.... welcome to my G Grow journal....

yep ,,it does get quite a lot of sun considering how dense the bush is around it.....its had ovr 8 years of work put into it..with the terracing and irrigation system and all...its very lovely

Hey jats looking good ill be following this one for sure.
Id also like to see and hear about the watering system in more detail

Sup Jats, Nice looking spot will be setting up a chair. I third the pics of that irrigation setup you got goin it sounds like an awesome idea.

That is the best gift, an established grow spot with irrigation and terracing... drool worthy!

I'm intrigued by this timed gravity fed watering system, and even more intrigued where the hell he found a creek that hasnt dried up!

Awesome thread jats.

we want some irregation and plant photo's
please & thanks

Hey All ...welcome to the new comers.......Gr8 to see youz here..........
Ok...... I have drawn up a rough map of our system....it maybe a little unintelligible in places... I could not find my rubber.... but I guess that it would be easier to understand seen like this then in photos.... I will get some up evenualy but all you would see is trees and rocks and leaves and earth and the odd random bit of exposed pipe ....the res is a black plastic container..... and the irrigation is laid out as you would a vegi garden...the site is so steep it is perfect for a gravity feed system and the battery timers can be got from any irrigation place

its a bad drawing ...sorry

I know.... I am so honoured by it..... I never thought I would grow outdoors again.... I cant in my own garden because the lowies in my area rob it......little suckers
so I am very happy to have this amazing opportunity to grow some awesome outdoor and the experience of doing it,,,not to mention the gr8 excuse to get off my ass and work hard and get fit........

Oh he uses a res, I thought it was from a natural source. Hard work luggin the water? LOL

The res is permanently in the creek....like a little dam/pond for the pipe to sit in....then it all just runs down the pipe by the force of gravity....no hauling water any where
