Hey all it's not my first outdoor grow but still looking for some more help to get big outdoor plants.. im in Canada on the coast (NS) not sure if theres any growers out there that are from around here but that would be great. last year i grew then they got ripped. so i have 5 new spots water very close to all of them and around 7 to 9 hours of sun (this is good right ) i have a home made pump setup to get water so im not worried about that. mainly just looking at how to get big plants and big harvests. i plant to plant 3 to 5 plants in groups (3 groups per plot) so 45 to 75 (100 at most plants) trying to get around 3 to 5 oz's per plant if i can that would be awesome. problem is i can't bring out small plants or clones (would be hard to carry them and not be seen) so i need to start from seed (have roughly 250 to 300 good seeds). can't bring in soil for the same reasson so i need help on what to use. i used (Plant Prod Root Booster Fertilizer) on the ones last year to grow the roots faster. (week and a half after the plant started growing then i used the root booster for 2 -3 weeks. is that good ? www.walmart.ca/en/ip/plant-prod-root-booster-fertilizer/6000056068623 (link to the booster) then a 20- 20-20 plant food. and no flower nutes. thinking about using Miracle-Gro® Shake 'n Feed® All Purpose 12-4-8 this year what do you guys think ? would that be good to feed them in veg. then get another flower nute ? any help would be great. digging roughly 3 feet by 3 feet deep holes to put them in 2 seedlings per hole (to start wherre i dont know the sex til flower) hopefully will leave me with a female in each of the 3 holes so 9 plants in each spot roughtly math could be off... im high lol any help could be great so plaese share what you know. also thinking about making a home made green house at each spot small maybe 3 foot by 5 (3 feet high) out of clear painters covers to start them a few weeks early . (where i am it gets kinda cold early would have to say a guess then first frost is ummm 13 to 20th of oct. ) once again any help is great i need to learn as much as i can before next year.. so please help me out guys... oo and the new 5 spots are way out not around any houses are trails i hope they dont get ripped this year.. thanks guys bye..
oo and the nutes i used last year was Plant Prod All Purpose Fertilizer 500g 20-20-20 www.walmart.ca/en/ip/plant-prod-all-purpose-fertilizer-500g/6000057190424 thinking about using Miracle-Gro® Shake 'n Feed® All Purpose 12-4-8 www.walmart.ca/en/ip/miracle-gro-shake-n-feed-all-purpose-12-4-8/6000156123918 and maybe Miracle-Gro Organic Choice Bone Meal, 1.36kg www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/miracle-gro-organic-choice-bone-meal-1-36kg-0592216p.html#.VFBxdPldXQU Miracle-Gro Shake 'n Feed Ultra Bloom, 2 kg www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/miracle-gro-shake-n-feed-ultra-bloom-2-kg-0592311p.html#.VFByw_ldXQU im thinking the two Miracle-Gro just because its Slow release the all purpose feeds for 4 monthes and the flowering/bloom feeds for 3 months. let me know if this will work thanks. can't really get really good nutes because i can't order anything.. kinda just walmart and CT for everything. to get the soil/dirt ready for the plants just add sand and rocks to help it drain better. (kinda want to do this as cheap as i can for ALOT of very cheap/free bud) plus where i can only carry in stuff in a backpack and dont really want to make 30 or more trips for all the soil and everything thanks again can't wait to hear what you guys tell me
Congrats for having the gonades to grow where you are at. I live where I can grow it legally according to State Law, that is. But if you are having problems taking small plants and soil to the grow area then you are certainly going to have problems when harvest time comes around and you have to pull the plants. I have to use a sawsall as the trunks are bigger than my wrist and I get around 10 to 12 oz. of medication per plant and they are over 7 feet tall. You can get around 5 oz. from a 4 to 41/2 ft. plant. How would you ever get these type plants from your grow without getting caught? But I take it your plan is to grow lots of short plants? Your going to have a lot of tending to do, trimming, to keep them short, and watching out for the males to show. If you have the space, I'd tie them down as they grow. This will allow you to have tall plants but they will be laying down and the buds will be sticking up above the branches. Tall plants give you bigger and better buds (IMO). I purchased the Marijuana Horticulture (indoor/outdoor) Grower's Bible and it has many good tips on growing your first big guerilla crop and how best to hide your grow from four and two legged creatures. To bad you can't get some good Fox Farm products up there. They have a good selection of Organic Nutes just for Cannibus. Keep in mind also that anything you post here can be used againt you if you happen to get busted. So don't document/share too much if you know what I mean.
oo i know im just posting to find out new info about growing not showing pics and what not i live on the coast in canada. not 100% legal but ya like growing the plants i have kinda a plan too grow 3 some big plants in a spot with 3 areas in each spot if that makes sense. i know it sucks that i cant bring promix or another soil out because i know it would make them grow faster/better. but doing what i can. harvest would be using a big hockey bag i have. bags inside it with the buds. (its a huge bag but i carry it around other times and no one questions it. (would fill it with soil but im thinking that would be pretty hard to carry.. i already have the 5 spots ready that i made this year. not around anything in the middle of torn bushes and small (8 foot to 10 foot) ever greens (7 to 9/10 hours of direct sun light(no to little shade at all) 3 holes dag out in 3 spots there total 9 holes per area. roughtly 2.5 to 3 feet deep garage bags in the holes. just the dirt/soil of the holes with 20 % sand added (carried bag by bag to the spot from sand pits close) theres a water source at all spots and if it dries out then a back up bigger one within 50 to 100 feet. cleared area roughly 5 to 6 feet PER plant. going to grow and top them first topping 5 branches up then 3 more times when still in veg...hopefully it makes a bushy kinda short plant. i have 4 feet of good cover and 6 to 10 of rough so want to keep them 4 to 5 feet high. trying to get 4 to 6 oz per plant is that do able ? i have a water pump to water them every week or so. wont be a problem to get the buds out or train them. (spent a lot of time in the areas last year and there no one i mean no one even close to there) thinking about tieing them down to train them. (top them let that grow then top again and tie the branches down and so on tie it down 3 times ( every time i top) so do you think with alright soil big ish potting spot and atleast some nutes they will grow to 4 / 5 feet and bring around 5 ozs if not 7 ? 5 times 9 45 times 5 like 145 ozs from all 5 areas / 15 small spots. ( already learned to grow in small amounts to stop them from being found) let me know what you think as i say i have grown (last yer got ripped but the year before) then i got like 3-4 ozs from small 3 foot trained ones. so think its nuts to grow them abit bigger and try for 5 to 7 each ?. ooo and have 2 11 by 14 foot rooms for drying so thats no worry. going to trim fan's off then let hang and dry for 3-4 days then trim better. (fans trimmed of a week before harvest). let know with anything you know would be great to learn more . (ALWAYS WILLING TO LEARN FROM GROWER THAT DID IT MORE THEN 4 YEARS i did it 4 years so far) also going to more then likily have a spot to just left the males and females for a fuck load more seed how much you think i would get like of seeds spot with 9 un trained male/female plants..(first year i did 3 2 males one female. got a 6 foot female but only like 250 275 use able seeds is that alot from one plant ?) THANKS FOR REPLYING SEE YA
