69erikm's outside Hydro So Cal Grow

Grow Journal 2010

April 20th 2010 went to dr. and got my recommendation for Medical Marijuana

April 26 ordered 10 northern light seeds from Nirvana only 5 sprouted
April 28th ordered 10 Ice seeds from Nirvana 9 sprouted
May 16th Bought a 9 inch White Widow unknown genetics in soil
May 17th ordered 5 Wonder Woman Feminized all 5 sprouted by far the best (most vigorous) and most uniform of the three types of seeds I ordered

I decided to try an outside grow with my WW clone, in a 15 gallon plastic Keg. The problem is the WW clone is full of mite eggs. So before I put her in the hydro keg I will treat her with benifitful, every 3 days till she’s clean of eggs.

On June 12th I hade some Blue Berry delivered this shit knocked my socks off. I found 3 seeds. So I’m germinating them, two sprouted right away the third was tacking too long so I helped the little guy/girl by cracking her/his shell. I worked and it sprouted.


The Indoor plan:

All seeds are going to be in soil, when they are big enough to clone I will take a clone and sex it.

I will weed out the males and keep the best one female from each of the Northern lights, Ice, and Blue Berry as mums. The wonder woman are all female I will find the most potent one and keep her as a mum. I will take a cutting from my WW and keep her as a mum also.

So hopefully I will have five mums

• Northern light
• Ice
• blue berry
• White Widow
• Wonder Woman

Friday the 18th at 19:30 hours took 3 cuttings from the white widow

Sorry I'm late, man- busy over my way- trying to get some input on whether to chop right now or not. . .

Anyway this grow looks great! Outdoor BB, FTW! (May be the first time I've used that webism. . .)

I think that will turn into a beastly tree in no time. Consider how you will support its massive, redwood like trunks as even their mighty girth is strained beneath the weight of your terrifying, ecliptic buds, threatening to crush us beneath their bulk and promising to end all other plant life on the patio as the trichs develop so thickly that they blot out all sunlight-

Look, just don't destabilize the planet with that thing, OK?

Seriously, go get some stakes! Good ones!

THANK YOU Mech for stopping in,

I saw that you took her down ... um was that one plant? fook n huge

Its hard to see but I used a couple of those plastic signs( you see them on freeway on ramps that people will tape up or staple up) and made a tie down platform to LST her to ...blablabla her lid is framed out of 1/2" pvc and each corner has pvc tee attached verticaly so I can add a support bar/cage when the time comes.

... lol well that's the plan so far...how about some visual aids

ok see pictres from top to bottom # 2 , 4, 6 those are the "tees" to attach the upper and lower supports if needed.

Just can't stop drooling in this thread. Good thing it's outside.

Definitely gonna be trying my hand at this very soon, but I know there is no way I could put a container outside and not have it boiling by the end of the day, so I gotta figure a way around that one.

do you see my "tie to table" the white sign material that I tie her to, well if you attach a grass skirt or some of that bamboo fence material around the perimeter of the sign material that will defiantly keep the sun off but still let the air through.

I live only 1.5 miles from the pacific ocean so I get a nice cool ocean breeze. So I'm not to worried about the rez temp .......

but if it becomes a problem I'll go to my local hydro store and buy a cooler there pricey ... but it would be total worth it if it fixed the problem

holly shit I just realized that I am using lucas veg cycle formula its an outside grow so do I change it or do I wait till the end of summer and switch to the flower formula?

does any one know?

yeah, I'm a little further from the ocean, so I don't get that breeze.

that ain't gonna stop me from trying.

look what I just made.



It's already outside.

because of the plentiful amount of light, I'd probably run at about 800ppm 'till you see pistil clusters, then raise it to around 1500ppm. But I've never grown hydro outside, so that's just a guess..

Unclenugs you rock man here it is the Outdoor Hydro Club lol ...

she looks great what stain / breeder?

that cooler should keep the heat out ...fuck just add ice if it gets to hot .. I doubt it will though. How many gallons is that h2o cooler? I will find out about the nutes.
