Out door grow

[oldjarhead100]

busy day yesterday busy day today I did manage to get all the soil i'll need to replace the outside soil lots of digging and carrying in my future lol

[oldjarhead100]

I love watching seedling grow they reach a point and just take off thats where I'm at My progression plan is tight on timing lol

[Paracelsus]

Seedlings? I just can’t keep track of you when they are harvesting this next stage you’re hiking carrying the reservoir on your back now you’re talking about seedlings I’m out of breath just reading about it

[Tika]

I'm with you Paracelsus OJH is so on the move!!! Love it

[Paracelsus]

Hey you when you’r going upstairs and downstairs and rolling your wagon, you’re no slouch Tika Then you do the laundry sheesh

[oldjarhead100]

so I noticed some heat stress on some of the seedlings so I left the light a couple of inches higher I noticed a root sticking out of the root riots this morning so a few more days then I can top the seedling and use the tops for clones thats my plan anyway

[Paracelsus]

Vader Vintage feel the heat

[Paracelsus]

r
what I really want to know is do you cultivate you’re gorilla grows? Do you feed and water, just water or just set up the soil and set them and forget them?

[oldjarhead100]

I use amended soil for the gorilla grows ,this year I'm changing out the soil instead of amending going with root organic original and using green field for the super soil I also have 3 bags of kind soil left then we just water as needed and later in the year we will feed them if they need it so I am planing on carrying out 60 5 gallon buckets of dirt the water buckets are left at the grow site for the summer but we take them in for the winter

[oldjarhead100]

the clones have roots and the seedlings need to be cloned , can't do either until bloom is done, going out this morning to prep 20 holes and maybe look for new sites

[Campesino]

Sounds like fun!
Hard work, but fun hard work.
Take it easy on your back and enjoy the digging and scouting!

[GreenhouseEffect]

Kinda jealous.
At least got part of my vegetable garden beds build and filled with soil today, but prepping for giant cannabis plants sounds like way funner hard work!!

[WeirdWiredWolf]

@GreenhouseEffect: My roomie is now planning out her garden at work to be able to conceal a small clone or two. That should be loads of fun...the biggest question we have is does she have a plan in case someone finds them and can she keep them shorter than the tomato plants? I do want to try Frisian Duck for my next grow as it just looks neat.

[oldjarhead100]

yup it was kicked my ass ,I mean how hard could it be digging out holes that had already been dug before right well after the soft easy soil we had to enlarge the holes some , we made sure they held 5 gallons of soil ,lots and lots of rocks all the reasons the holes were small in the first place this is new england , they are ready now and we are doing another 20 this morning

[Paracelsus]

I’m fixing a hole where the rain gets in and stops my mind from wandering where it will go

[alltatup]

Sgt Pepper's LHCB: I even remember the day the hippie record store opened and I was waiting at the door to buy that album. Man oh man, makes those memories from 50 years ago pop right back up like they were last year...

[Paracelsus]

I find myself singing the songs very often

[alltatup]

An extraordinary album (well, they all were), and I believe the Beatles' music will be known in a couple hundred years (if anyone's still here), while Herman's Hermits and Dave Clark Five won't be...

[oldjarhead100]

Last of the holes will be done this morning ,I have a 10x12 tarp on the floor of my garage stall ,I dumped any soil I had already used so I added 6 bags of lobster compost half a bag of perlight and ran out of time but its started lol

I think the last of the bloom room will be done in two days so I can start cloning the seedling and spread them out this is getting very enjoyable growers love all have a great day

[Campesino]

Happy that you're having fun with it!

[Canuck147]

One busy guy - how about an idea of how many plants your gonna being taking care of at once?

[Locrian99]

Hey ojh I’m trying to steal your outdoor grow method here bud hope your cool with that I’ve been digging through and unless I’m missing it I don’t see where you state how much green fields you put in the bottom of your 5 gallon hole. I can get 1.5cu ft bag of it at my local grow shop for just shy of 14$ so this seems like a pretty economical way of doing it. Thanks man

[Locrian99]

Cool thanks man.

[Locrian99]

Has to have the grow shop order the green fields for me, apparently they don’t get much demand for it. Picked it up today. In your experience does the green fields in the bottom usually get en through for the whole grow or do you usually need to start giving them some nutes in flower?

[Locrian99]

I was pretty shocked though I got both bags for 25 bucks, 1.5 cubic ft. each. Crazy how much they charge for the kind soil if this stuff works just as good.

[oldjarhead100]

all holes are emptied and new soil is ready to start filling them ,

all clones are ready to be planted and then take more clones off of the seedlings ,clones of tut that's today's project plant 50 clones then take as many as I can

[Trichomefarmer88]

Coming along nicely!! I can't wait, I believe this weekend I'm going to plant all these clones that have been ready! I'll probably dig the 25v holes or more an throw in my compost with everything else an try to get it all done in two days.. fingers crossed!

[oldjarhead100]

I ended up planting 40 clones 22 tut and 18 PC and I took fifty more but I dont think ten are going to make it .2nd pic clones 3rd is my outside grow minus ten pineapple chunk that are in 2nd picture lol

[oldjarhead100]

they will go out the end of this month after the full moon then it should be safe from frost

[GreenhouseEffect]

Man, oh man! I am truly impressed!

[Chefbjy]

Hey oldjarhead100 are you using rooters or just medium for your clones? Sure have a high success rate. What's your secret 😆?

[oldjarhead100]

@Canuck I do a here and there grow never grow in straight lines or put to many in one place lol

so those last ten clones didn't make it must not like to be cloned I they were the power africa oh well I have my 10 lol , The Black Zombie need another week or so before they are ready to clone

I watered the clones yesterday 1/2 cup each daily with hydro guard and deep breath for about 2 weeks or until the next batch is ready for dirt , the seedling got there first real watering on Thursday I have a scoop that i use it holds about a quart so no need yesterday I want to get them on a 3 day schedule before they go to the woods

[oldjarhead100]

I left the outdoor grow to dry out a little more yesterday today it should need some water the clones all looked good
