  1. Whats up fellas! Glad to be back here posting =). Well to kick it off, im in the wellington area, south florida. 5min west of my place is pretty much the end of civilization on the east coast soo... pretty solid area to grow, couple thousand acres of woods lol. The last time/first time i posted here was for my indoor grow (30 site 1000w digital/T5 aeroponics grow) Sooo i started my first outdoor grow in October. Bought 5 feminized Kaya golds from Nirvana-shop, rly like them - very reliable. Basically went into the middle of nowhere, in more or less of a clearing in the trees for sunlight, and dug 5 holes. Roughly a little bigger then a homedepot bucket (5+ gallons.) Germinized them, filled the holes with some premium soil, and planted them about an inch under the soil. It only took 2 days for 3 to pop, few more for the others. But in under a week I had all 5 pop out around 2 inches tall! As glorious as it was for my first outdoor grow when i came back 2-3days later 3 of them GOT EATIN SON OF A BITCH FML ..lol :mad:. I saw some little rodent tracks, not sure what it was. So lesson learned i went out and bought some rly nice green wire garden type fencing to put around the two i had left (2x2" holes in wire)

    So these 2 little resilient babies have been through alot! First in late November we had about a week+ of no sun and cold nights (40-50degrees,) stunting their growth considerably i'm sure, and possibly prematurely starting the flowering stage with the lack of sunlight. Then in early December we had that tropical depression or w/e it was and it was basically a flash flood!! Plants were under water for just under a week. There were even a bunch of little ants on the branches taking refuge from the flood, was like a mini Noahs ark. (I know what your thinking.. why the fuck did you plant them in a low area? Well, i have never seen this place with ANY standing water, just a freak storm /sigh.) They survived that, somehow.. Now here we are in January and its F'IN 30degrees at night, stunting any last attempt to get bigger, i honestly think they are half the size of their potential. Just... sigh lol. BUT, they are still trucking along, very much alive. From the extreme cold a few of the bigger fan leaves were.. best way to describe it, burned? I did some trimming and with the recent warm weather it looks like they are making a big comeback! New growth looking very sharp and rigid, with the buds still growing and filling in. I'll post some pics asap!!!
    Tell me what you think guys, im out to get blazed, peace fellas!!!
