South Florida Newbie Outdoor Grow Log :-D

No problem. :thumbsup:

I can see in one of the pics that at least one of the pots has an attached saucer. Rip dat baby offa dere. Standing water's gonna make yer bug problem worse, and your growing medium mucky and sour. Bleah!

You could set the pots back in a saucer, then--just not attached to the pot. Gotta keep things clean and dry. The pot sitting right on the ground is no good, either. You'll have an ant relay race going pretty quick (or worse).

Search the user "stinkyattic." Read every sticky she has written. She's a mod here, and sometimes she has to spank people when things start getting out of hand. Hermie likes that part, maybe because Hermie was weaned too early. :(



14's too early, right?

Yeah i hear ya, as far as ground pests go i spread ant poison amongst any and all piles i saw, i keep a close watch on these babies.. but yeah thats a good point about the saucer underneath, i never would have thought of that :) .
I have some other good news however, i went to go see my friend to pick up some fine greenery, and he bestowed upon me about 30 magical seeds :jointsmile: Im not sure if i'll have enough materials for all of them, but soon.. soon.

Read up on cloning (taking cuttings). Fun and easy. Get one female plant and grow her cuttings for years. All guaranteed female, all mature and ready to flower as soon as they have roots! No need to pop 30 beans at once. :smokin:

Hah yeah i hear ya, i only have supplies for 10 more anyways :-D, i just want to make sure i have a few girls out of the pack.

My second/main project im still working on is going to be my indoor grow whenever my seeds decide to come in the mail. Those are the ones im going to focus on cloning :smokin: i just want to see all the different varieties that my collection of potent bagseeds produce.

Just be careful with your numbers. Lot of us on this board are legal med patients. No such thing where you are. State of FL got no patience, likes to consider everybody a trafficker, even med users.

25 plants and up is real serious there. Can't remember if it was minimum mandatory or automatic referral for federal prosecution or what, but it was heavy like a murder charge. Take your house, too. Nothin' to play with. Mos' peeps think fartin' around with bagseed just ain't worth the risks. They're considerable. Jus' sayin. Hermie

Ah to ease my mind and yours, i grow on a 6 acre property with 7 foot fences bordering my neighbors property. This is country Florida i live in :)
Just as well, paranoia is not getting the best of me here :thumbsup:

As per your advice however i did transplant the 2 that were sharing a home, and removed the trays. I would be posting some pics but my camera eats batteries like nothing else. I'll have some new ones up soon.

Okay so heres some pics, they all are looking very healthy, i used a couple drops per/gal of superthrive and half strength nutes.

Ill be updating again soon :)

i went out again today to inspect for those annoying little spiders, found a few hiding underneath the lower nodes of 2 of my plants, after i noticed the tips of the lower leaves were brown where they were sitting.

Im probably going to end up going to get the neem oil and start spraying them down with it.

I trimmed down the vegetation and sprayed more pest spray around the area, ants and crickets/grasshoppers are gone. As well i think i got the last of the spiders that found a home there.

just as well does anyone know how to get rid of flies? or ward them away from your area?

Okay so heres an interesting defect that im not too happy about, a couple of the lower leaves on 2 of the plants are looking nasty. The bugs are gone all but some little flies that like to hover around.

I wanna know what it is that is causing the leaves to decay like they are, and if i should just chop the branch etc.

Other than those 2, the other 7 are loving the hell out of their new homes, got about 2 inches in the last couple days.

Looks like critters, maybe.

Can you get a shot of the underside of this leaf?

Got a magnifying glass to give yourself a better look?
