2023 Outdoor Plants Only Show & Tell

[SoOrbudgal]

Welcome all to the 2023 Outdoor plants only show & tell alittle bit about your plants. Anyone with a plant or plants are welcome to post pictures and give us alittle information on your strains. Here goes my lineup...........

Got some auto flowers an a Freak Show in the cart. 2 Sweet Tooth & 1 Grape, 1 Runtz. Figured the autos would be slow to grow at this point do to sprouting outdoors an the 3gal pots are a huge space to find their roots but they are growing an will take off shortly. That's my slow growing Freak Show she's pushing onward and i transplanted her into a 2gal.

The others are photoperiod which i started from seed mid March an vegged indoors in my tent. These have been outdoors now at least 2 weeks and are happy so far. No early flowering but i do see female parts hairs from calaxies so I'm very happy my bag seed and my unknown Dutch seed are female. The rest are feminized seed....Wedding Cake x1 3Run Homer x2
Dutch Dope x1 Bag seed x1 Big Star x1 ( cross of big bazooka x critical sensi ) and last but not least I'll give Freak Show her spot on the photoperiod show.

All grown in 15gal plastic an 2 10gal lots of holes drilled into those pots. Premixed PNW soil that i recycle and recharge with worm casings, perilite and compost.

Hey SoOrbudgal. Looking great! Mine are a bit behind. These were started third week in April. All the 5 gal. cloth bags are the Scarlet family autos, Sunset, Runtz, and Galaxy. Started flowering early at 3 weeks. Might have started them a little early. Wanted them outdoors before flower.The plastics are a Gorilla Glue 4 photo and a Gelato photo, and a small Alien gorilla glue I started for a relative. All are a little small but I've been running at 16/8 to avoid re-veg. The photos will be transplanted one more time. Been really cold at night here 30s and low 40s at night. Finally some warmer weather for now so trying to get them hardened outdoors for good. Bring on summer!

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Well my 4 autos outdoors are very small for 2wks so i'm anticipating perhaps early flower man i hope not cause i need the weed not dwarf autos. The photos handle 40f overnight fine. I grew GG#4 last summer outdoors did great. Were pretty steady here with mid 80s daytime and nice breeze. No sign of bugs yet but i've got the BT ready and i'm mixing some worm/guano tea in a bucket today. At this point i'm only giving 1/2 gal. each of the tea.

Because the forum tends to rearrange my uploads Ima breakin it up.
This is my youngest plant, 8 Ball Kush, planted outside in the soil, sprouted 4/29.
My soil in all is my own home made soil which I feed in the fall.

Here we have a Land Race, Colombian Purple, spring sprung early here and I fell like i was late planting the seeds on 2/22. I did need to cover a few times for frosty mornings. She has preflowers and 11 finger leaves. I will be trimming her legs soon to get air flow through the plant. She has been topped and 3 limbs tied out to the sides (2 was intended) the third came out late and I should have cut it off.

 

[Rwise]

This is one of my own crosses, Berryfreak x Santa Marta Colombian Gold, planted 2/22. This was a feminised seed and has preflowers, I have trimmed her legs a bit already. She has 9,10 and 11 fingers! Topped and 2 limbs tied down until I broke one off, snap no threads at all. I let the other side grow a bit more and topped it.

 

[Rwise]

The big girls in the rear are my own cross Greasy Grapes x WTB (my own cross), planted 2/22. There was a third but he has been removed for compost.
From left to right the little girls are autos from a GWE member, Scarlet Galaxy, Scarlet Grapes, and Scarlet Sunset. These sprouted 4/4, the grapes was slow to get started, but has taken off nicely, they started flowering about 3 weeks ago. Galaxy has had a trim, and grapes was topped. Only 5 fingers on these girls and 3s as you can see.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

She is great looking really gonna produce heavy looks like

Man Rwise we got lucky you got real lucky with early set out. I sure hope we stay that way. I'm not going to do another auto or ever do a photo seed straight from seed into final pot. I'm much better off doing transplant an vegging in a cup till roots take hold an fill the cup. My autos outdoor from seed are 3wks behind what indoor grow would be. Yours are looking good, mine might be dwarfs from early outdoor stress i don't know just guessing?

 

[Rwise]

I could have been in the ground at least 2 weeks earlier this year. Lots of dif tween my garden environment and yours, a bit dry here I have had to water a bit already. I may have to pop a well to water with if it gets dryer, some here are in rationing already. We'll both see how it grows, I think your plants look great, now if we can just keep the bugs away!

 

[Bluey]

This is my preferred way to go outdoors...home-made soil rocks

 

[Rwise]

LOL, there is 1 rock under the pots, and the house. That and some warming stones.

Hello everyone , this is what I have growing in my greenhouse. Top picture from left to right are a Critical, Gelato OG, and a Peyote Gorilla from seed. Peyote Gorilla suffered a fatal cat attack so had to start another , it's about 2 weeks behind the other two. Was going to put some auto's In greenhouse also but just last week a local guy started a business here in my hometown selling seeds and clones. Have plenty of seeds but have never grown from clones so I figured what the hell, like to support small local businesses so purchased 3 clones the first day he opened. Brought them home and transplanted last Wednesday. They looked a little sad and droopy and were badly root bound but after transplanting and a few days in greenhouse they perked right up. Don't want them getting too big in greenhouse so the plan is to leave them in there for a few weeks, do some LST, then put them in tent to initiate flowering. That is if the Auto's in the tent now are finished, might be a juggling act. Strains of clones are left to right White Widow, Fritter Dawg, and Louis Xlll OG. First year I've had greenhouse and really enjoying it so far. Have a great season everyone

Does a window grow count? Vanilla Frosting photo period in 5 gallon container of
living soil. I seriously screwed up on the timing of this girl. During veg I would
supplement daylight in the evenings with artificial LED's. By the time she was large
enough to flower we had reached the equinox. Since then I have had to move her into
a closet at 5pm every single night and then set her back in the window every morning.
I haven't had to feed her at all thus far but I just set a jug of banana/avocado tea to
steep and will start adding that to regular feedings beginning tomorrow. Looking forward
to harvesting so I can get back to my regular life. Honestly, the yield I'll get from this
does not justify all the time and effort.​

 

[SoOrbudgal]

I use to move my outdoor starts from indoor tent to greenhouse but don't have it setup yet, i really love my greenhouse helped during fall rains. I would always take clones from my big photo plants outdoors. But alas so many of my old time grower friends are not growing anymore cause they can't take care of them outside. Clones are abit wildly an lots of different structure than seed grown as you see.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

No it does not count LOL need i say why? LOL houseplants don't count. But it's a funny story she's pretty far into flower there crucialbunny now if you'd of taken that photo of her sittin on the porch outside then it's outdoor LOL

 

[Bluey]

Some of my plants identify as outdoor plants SoOrbudgal . Surely that counts!

 

[SoOrbudgal]

LOL so does the he/she but genes don't lie. Let's just keep it real simple if it sits outdoors and stays outdoors it's outdoors. LOL lets not go into Hermi mode.

Got mine outside for good now. A little praying from the sun but they seem comfy with it now. Really hot yesterday and today. 90s. The Scarlet autos on the bottom seem a little more sensitive to the light. The 2 photos on top, GG4 and Gelato, are having a great time. They're about ready to go into their big boy pots now that I don't have to bring them in and out for the extra light. We're at just under 15 hrs of light now hopefully no re-veg.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Those look great Bowhunterwoody. Mine need more heat like yours i think. I may of jumped the gun on length of daylight but i did'nt think so, it's over 14.5 hrs but the temps got lower during the night into the 40s and they really droop on a couple of my strains. Wedding Cake is hating it as are the sweet tooth autos but the Grape and Runtz crosses are finally getting their roots digging in. It's only been in the mid 70s during the day chilly feet in the early mornings. This may throw mine into early flower. My strongest so far are the bag seed and the other unknown Dutch seed that show female hair. These are old strains i've kept for years just never grew them yet. Keep up the great care of your gals they sure are healthy looking.
