So I throw some seeds in backyard along my house a couple months ago. Last saturday I discovered...some of the seeds had sprouted. Well actually, way past sprouted. They are straight up growing. I really can't keep them along my house but I don't want to have to kill them. These babies are lookin female. I believe they are.
What should I do..?
transplant them to a place u can grow! :jointsmile:
That is exactly what I'd like to do, but I have no experience with moving them. Should I dig a foot or two deep into the soil in hopes of completely avoiding the roots? More? Blah..I don't even know where I should move them.
I have to think quick, though. They're right out in the open, and damn are they beautiful. I'll have to get some pics up asap.
There is no way to tell sex of seedlings and it'll be at least until mid-july before you'll be able to identify them so be patient. But at least it wasn't for nothing, the next time you toss seeds onto the ground you'll know what to expect.
madeline has a point there. i would build something in ur house, take a shit load of clones, and grow em in ur house, then kill the mother so no one knows.Quote:

They've actually been growing for a while now. Probably close to two months. I'm starting to see little white hairs on the main stem and around the nodes. Not sure if that's an indication of anything quite yet...
Doubt I can grow them in my house. I don't really have any areas of complete secrecy. Plus, I'm not at this house all the time, so I'm not able to check up on them.Quote:

Would I be best off digging real deep, making sure all the roots are safe in a gigantic wad of dirt, and transfer them to an already-dug hole?
In case it isn't already obvious--I have little to no experience with growing. I wasn't expecting to begin before I moved out :jointsmile: :p
Dang, they've been growin for 2 months, why can't you just let 'em finish off? hehe.
And therein lies my predicament.Quote:

And so on, and so on. I'd love to keep them where they are seeing as they're growing wonderfully, but it just seems like too much of a risk. My family doesn't venture off into the back all too often, but they're pretty difficult to miss. I guarantee they'd be uprooted if found. And I'd be the obvious suspect. But that's not even what I'm worried about. I just want them to grow in peace and flower when need be.
There's four plants in all. They're all fairly close to eachother, some extending a bit out into the yard, while others remain close the side of the house. They're become taller than some of the weeds/crabgrasses/other shit XD So who knows.
Luckily they don't reek or anything when you're near them. Though, if you get down and smell em...there's no denying. :stoned:
you must dig as big a hole as the plants diameter. width wise.
about a foot deep should work, but 18" might be better.
Put in a 3 gallon pot with organic Soil. I would just use miracle grow "organic Choice" it would be really simple to do. Goodluck
White hairs are pistils...definitely female
Just leave em alone. If anyone sees them and knows that they are:
1. Most likely will wait until it buds and will steal them, or think the leaves are smokable and will steal the plants before they bud.
2. will be your neighbore and will ask you if you know what it is, play dumb and say no... and if they tell you what it is, act shocked and go kill them...
3. a no-good-for-nothing-good-doer will call the cops... if the cops show up, they will 90% likely cut em down and take them with them after you play the dumb card and say they sprouted up this spring and you thought they were pretty and left them....
unless you live next to a cop, the likely hood of someone recognizing them is slim... you are more likely to run into number 1 above than any other.... you have to remember, this is a plant that has been erradicated in these lands, and not alot of people can tell what they are just from looking at it, the one who do know what it is from looking at it either smoke it or are OK with it in some way, or they are trained to know it.....
I was installing cable at an apartment complex and the main connection box was around the back of this long building that was made of about 4 or 5 units. I made my way around the building down to the unit I was installing the apartment for and walked up to the main box. While walking up to the box mounted to the exteriour wall of the building, I had to walk though some low (thigh high) vegitation... Kind of pushing it aside with my knee, and I realized that I was walking though a 12x12 sqare foot area of marijuana plants that were camo'd with other vegitation.... freaked me out that someone would plant about 100 or more plants just right here in the open where every apartment on the unit opened up to the back area and could see it. It was about in the center of two apartments on the lower floor that had open concrete decks and had BBQ stuff out on them and then above the decks were deck/balcolnes for the upper apartments...
This grow was right out in the open... I picked a leaf, put it in my tool bag, and finished my job...
Go put a few tomato plants around them....
