The only outdoor growing I've done was out in the woods or in the mountains so I never really did and training on them, I'd top them if I thought keeping them short would hide em better 😅 I'd really like to see what I could do with a plant now that I actually know a little more about training... my backyard is pretty private but the ol lady is freaked out about someone getting into the yard. I have that little duckfoot auto outside now so I'm warming her up a little maybe by spring I can get her on-board 😆🤣
You have some beautiful girls going there I'm jelly 😋😜

Thanks bro! Outside is a whole new realm. My advise if you try that next year is either shut the tent down or only have a couple going because I’m tending to the outside plants twice daily now. Have a GSC auto that’s close to harvest that I cut another brown bud off of daily so I’m not sure I’ll do this again but wanted to try it at least once

bboyfromwayback Looking great! Even with my smaller version, it's still a pain in the ass moving it in and out daily. I wish my modified tomato cage was a bit taller,
as the tops get heavier I fear breakage when I'm moving it. Well here we are, 6 weeks completed since "flipping", best guess, should be done about the end of Sept.
Been raining on and off a bit this morning, so she's sitting by the door patiently waiting to go back outside (lol)

Your plant looks great! I wish I could bring mine in and out of the humidity occasionally but I’m afraid to infect my tents so she stays outside

It can be either a pain in the ass all summer or easy going. If you do a veggie garden anyway an just want to try a plant or two plan of staying home all summer? Then have good neighbors otherwise what's the point of stressing about being ripped off? This summer i've had zero bug problems it's the end of Aug. no rain no WPM and also plants are flowering late on some strains. So count on issues and moving them in an out of danger. MeEasy i keep it as simple an easy as i can. But it still ties you down an you worry after so long of care for these photoperiods.

Well i measured my smallest photo just for my big tent and she's too tall at 4 1/2 ft. I'll be dragging mine in an out of garage come rainy season an into my small greenhouse.

I haven’t been fighting WPM on these autos, it’s been bud rot instead. I’ve already lost 1.5 plants and I’ve been cutting buds off the GSC’s everyday. We’re starting to get hit with the rain from Ida so I brought them up onto the covered deck. Didn’t matter! F’ng rained hard sideways for 30min straight and soaked everything😢

Here is 2 out of four I never grew indoors but by bringing my grow into the back yard and not backwoods I'm going to get my best harvest I hate saying that cause u never know what can go wrong but there on the right track they r big enough that the heat doesn't bother them i have been heavy on the kelp I'm heavy on all my nutes I'm still under the impression that more equals more lol

Update….my last Fastberry was ready and looked fine, started trimming her and saw fuzzy stuff deep inside her buds, tossed it. So far I’ve lost both Fastberries, 1/2 of a GSC auto, a bunch of nugs off another GSC auto and I just removed the first brown bud off of the Gorilla Glue auto. All of these plants have been under cover with two fans on them since the storms started brewing last week but it’s been so humid it doesn’t matter. Wake up every morning to a thick fog and everything outside is wet. The Banana Kush buds are just now starting to fill in so hopefully by the time they thicken up it won’t be as humid. Fingers crossed
FYI for anyone curious about how the Fastberry growing in Miracle Grow did…it was healthy throughout the grow, no deficiencies or nute burn, just a healthy plant. The buds however didn’t thicken up like the other Fastberry. Could just be the plants, who knows, would need to grow a few more to see. That’s not going to happen though. Unless there’s an apocalypse or something to force me to grow outside I’ll spare myself the heartbreak moving forward

Hate to here that, that really sucks! I put 3 extra seedlings outside just to remind my why I built our grow box. Too much heart and soul and emotions involved to get shit on in the end. I thought about building a screened in area with greenhouse panels on top with some fans in it. Just to take advantage of the free light. Who knows, maybe some day? Right now I'm digging inside where I run the show!

It’s like a reoccurring bad dream to cut a different bud off everyday. Especially this close to harvest. I’ve thought of building a cover, kinda like a pergola only with a plexiglass roof and lots of fans fir airflow. But that’s time, materials and money plus it’s outside in the south east so you’ll still have the crazy humidity. Yea, ima indoor pot grower

I feel your pain. Autos just don't dig heat and humidity. Haven't run fast berry inside yet but it's on the list. My servicing 3 outdoor are chugging along. Snowcaine reeks and is showing signs of maturing already. 6 weeks into flower already. G13 Hase is about 3 weeks in and freakshow is about 2 weeks in.

To stop the daily heartbreak I cut down and tossed all the autos. Now I’m down to two outside plants. A Banana Kush with tee ball bat sized colas I’m hoping wont rot as they turn into baseball bat sized colas.
Decided I’d show the little Bruce Banner plant I experimented with. First pics of her, wasn’t sure she’d turn out. She was a little late to the party but starting to fill in nice. She’s been outside her entire life. Sprouted July 4th, gave her 2wks in a cup then moved her into 5 gallon pot on 7-20. Topped above 5th node then spread her out a little. She’s needed little care

Well our summer is the opposite hot, dry. So i would not feel like a failure it's not for the folks who are unattentive to the grows being in a hot,humid an rainy summer. I would not grow outdoor an count on it for my only resourse of weed. I know you don't do this an was just trying out outdoor grows. It's gonna be a battle here soon for me with bud rot i fear, very warm nights. Had gusts of wind last eve knocked over plants, i set them upright an secured them i'll check on them when it gets light out to dark to see any breaks? Yep i'm glad for only 4 outdoor big gals. Get's to be a test of nerves feels like the older i get, less i want to fuss with them.
