Wink Cannabisblunt's Guerrilla Grow- 22 Organic Medical Monsters

Well well its that time of year. I just scoped out a spot yesterday with my growing buddy. It is about 20 yards from a large stream (for sure year round), in a perfect little clearing. It is about 300 yards off of a road, so it will be easy carrying in supplies.

For Plot 1:
We will be setting up 3 reservoirs of 55 gallons (Old Pork's method) with auto-timers on them. Each reservoir will water 4 plants. Temperatures here get to about 104 over the summer, so I will be growing mainly sativa dominant strains.

According to my math, each plant will take up about a gallon and a half of water per 2 days with mulch and water-retaining crystals. That's 6 gallons x 4 plants = 24 gallons every 2 weeks. 55/24 = 2. This would mean I need to refill once a month.

Of course, I want to tend to my plants and fertilize. I will check on them and refill water every 2-3 weeks, adjusting the water flow amounts according to the weather.

Here is my list of supplies.

Need
12 Clones - $180
3 55 Gal drums - $80
1 Hand Water Pump - $30
3 Water Timers - $90
4 Hoses (50 feet)- $60
4 Sets of Washers and Nipples -$5
8 bags of Fox farms Ocean Forest- $160
Worm Castings - $30
Compost - Free
Chicken Wire- Free
Perlite - $25
Gas- $5
Total- $665

Already Have
Azomite (Trace Minerals)
Bone Meal 0-12-0
Peruvian Bat Guano 10-10-0
Mexican Bat Guano 10-2-0
Liquid Kelp Extract 0-0-3
Liquid Fish Emulsion 5-0-0
Liquid Molasses
Water Crystals
Diatomaceous Earth (deters ALL ground insects)


I will be giving them liquid fertilizers every 2 weeks, including compost teas. My soil mixture should be strong enough to support growth for the time in between.

I will be using Subcool's Super Soil Recipe.
Subcool's Super Soil - Marijuana Growing
This recipe involves letting the soil "cook" for a month. During this month of time I will be hardening off the clones at a more "local" plot. Once they have a strong enough root structure, they will be moved over.

The holes will be about 50 Gallons give or take a few.

Plot 2
I will be starting this plot in June. Similar methods involved, 10 clones.

Stay tuned, next week I will be preparing the soil and getting the clones.

Re: Cannabisblunt's Guerrilla Grow- 22 Organic Medical Monsters

Yay Im the first one to post!!! lol Very nice brahMight I ask why you need water timers if you have a manual pump? just curious how it works. Wow 22!!! I think I have around 20 seeds that will go in (saving another 15 seeds if anything goes bad/for next year too), and we shall see how many survive this season.

EDIT: Oh yeah do you have any idea of the strains your getting?

Well, the whole point of the water timers is to avoid visiting the plot often. Basically, if i could tend to these plants every other day to water, I would not need the tanks. I will be about 2 hours away, so I need to make a special visit to see them.

As for strains, I am going to go with bay area cannabis club genetics. So far I have acquired 2 OG Kush clones (actually transplanted them today), I will be getting 10 more next weekend. Wait around for the strain update.

Thank you corto, we will be planting around the same time this year. I'm just hoping for a smooth and easy ride with minimal plot visits.

Thanks Bukley. So far I only have 2 OG Kush clones growing. I will be going to the Bay this weekend to get some quality genetics. I am trying for the full spectrum of high yielding sativas/indicas. Also going to try some purple varieties.

Thanks for the nice wishes frostaie. Unfortunately california has such a dry climate that I will probably not get any rain for about 5 months. Weird huh?

Good luck to all of you!

Re: Cannabisblunt's Guerrilla Grow- 22 Organic Medical Monsters

Not much progress. This weekend I should get 10 more clones and mix the soil to cook. I am hoping 3 weeks is enough to let it sit.

Anyways, here is a picture of the 2 OG Kush clones.

Re: Cannabisblunt's Guerrilla Grow- 22 Organic Medical Monsters

They look real good CB. 3 weeks should be fine for cooling down (as long as eveything is composted you know, I read 2 weeks was ok!). My holes are almost all dug and prepped with ferts and manures at bottom but still empty haha! The less hot soil mix (= peat, castings, old compost, a bit of manures and meals) will be in there soon though. The plants will be in there around June 15th. All WWs, TWs are out and happy in the nice weather. The GGs are coming out too. Later buddy!

Ah, it must be nice to just be able to snatch up a grip of clones whenever you want 'em. This is going to be a lot of work for you CB, but I know you have the perseverance to pull it off. Good luck.
