self watering AK47 and Purple Widow grow

was good ya'll,

so I'm chillen in the tropics and have recently ordered my AK47 and Purple White Widow seeds with marijuana-seeds.nl

I found a great isolated location next to a creek and have already found a couple ways to make a "self watering" grow such as:

1. adding 30% peat moss to your soil mix, since peat moss retains water.
2. planting a jug of water near the plant and poke a pin size hole in the bottom.
3. a pump from the water source to the garden.
4. a gravity based system from a higher water source to a lower garden.

I also want to increase my yields, I heard that stakes at the base of the plant make the plant stronger and give bigger yields. what else can I do? Organic fertilizers are hard to come by here so a type of fertilizer that I can make myself would be ideal, maybe something like ground up fish for the N but that still leaves the P and K part. Any suggestions?

And I also want to be able to harvest my plant more than once!! I really need help with this part.

Sorry can't answer your questions with full confidence, I am a newbie grower myself and still waiting for my package of purple widows. I plan to grow outdoors with soil mix and perlite. I use a commercial organic fertilizer. I think it would be safe if you just get yourself a fertilizer that already has NPK if you cant get a hold of organic ferts such as guano and worm castings.

Keep me posted on your grow, and pictures would be great

Adding perlite to your soil btw not only retains water but will also improve aeration.

How's your grow man?

yo the grows pretty good. out of the 25 seeds I had, 17 came up but a couple of em seem to have a weak stem cuz they're almost falling over. I don't know if dats common or if wit some more time they'll be straight?
I can see traces of purple on the PW. So its genetics that play a role and not necessarily the colder weather conditions that make the bud purp

I'm tryna have these 17 plants to produce seeds cuz I want to create an entire farm somewhere deep in the Amazon.
The seeds from Marijuana-seeds.nl cost too much time to get here and the amount I need is not gonna be cheap. If I got my hands on a hundred seeds....I'd make millions of US dollars in this continent based on an interesting fact one of my niggas told me: a KILO of cocaine costs less than a kilo of weed. Why? cuz weed generally isnt produced here but rather imported. Cocaine on the otherhand is produced here and exported.
Some people in these types of countries are narrow minded so shit like this would be considered 'impossible' but it's actually a realistic goal that can be achieved in a relative short period of time wit the right knowledge and connections.

Can the three different strains intercross or should I separate them into different gardens at some point? cuz right now they're all in one huge 4mx4m pot so they'd be very close to each other which is good if you wanna produce seeds right? Or should I just transplant them in the ground when they get strong enough to handle this 100F+ sun?
