BRUTAL CLAY!!!

jimsne or something like that could be added to the clay I can't remember how to spell it.

Hey Bluntman if you plan on growing MJ you could just buy big plant pots i have 1 it will grow a huge plant ill post a pic of it but if your gonna put 5 seeds in that 4 fott hole you got to dig it another 4 feet longer so that there is aprox 2 feet between each plant so that the plants arent fighting for soil bigger plants will grow tall and the other 3 plants will get blocked from light by the bigger plant and they wont grow so allow alot of space . start the seeds inside your home use 2 liter pop bottles 1 plant a bottle just cut the top off the bottle fill the drit right to the top of the bottle you want the roots to grow deep in the bottle so that when you take it outside it will have the strengh to live.

ok now thats its later i got a more developed plan......im going to plant 6-9 plants in my holes than maybe add ferts as i grow.......im hoping for 1 pound? do u think i could get 1 pound?

VERY EASY YOU WILL GET 1 POUND IF YOU GROWING OUTSIDE PLANT A BUNCH WATER FERT THEY WILL GROW AND GROW SO BIG YOULL GET SCARED THAT SOM1 MIGHT SEE THEM LOL

Hi,
Could you let me know wat it was you got at the nursery to condition the
clay, and any info on how to use it. I live in Red clay Hell, so I guess I
will have to do the container or grow bag thing this year. I really appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks a lot. Have a great Day,Madja

Check this out

I saw this plant in high times a while back that the grower report getting 8 pounds off of. She was a monster. I grow in 22 gallon containers and get 6 foot plus diameter plants at 6 foot high.

One love

I heard that a good ratio is 1 gallon of soil for each cubic foot of plant...

That sounds about right to me.

One love

Where are you at? I live in georgia and we are famous for our georgia red clay... If you have clay do what garden said and dig a hole big enough for the roots... fill it with soil and put a cup of some blood meal... or ammonium nitrate at the very bottom. If you try to grow in just clay you plants will do bad. Clay particles are so small they pack together tightly and leave little room for water, air or roots. If you have woods get the dark top layer soil from there... If it has leaves make sure they are shredded they are a good soil conditioner and when they breakdown they are a source of nitrogen.

No digging nessisary...just buy big 10 gallon containers and grow them in those.No need to bury them unless you have hight issues? But if you have high fences don't waist your time or energy.But it's up to you?

I still say 22 gallons min as plants get very large and ten gallons of dry soil is not very much to hold the plant on a windy day unless it is secured with stakes.

Thanks for the info, I'm in NC, do you have any input on container planting,
any methods, etc. I really thank you lot. Have a good day.
Take care friend,
Madja

if you are really having height problems lst the bitch. thats what im gonna do with my outdoor plant. youll also get a much larger yield cause all of the inner bud spots will get light making them bigger without taking away from the other buds like it would be if u just grew a tree... my :twocents:

There are ways to get light to the lower branches without cutting up your plant. Try laying it over. Careful as to not break the stem. Bend the entire plant.All the shoots will grow straight up and it will belike a solar panel on the ground.And if you keep laying it over it will only get about 3 foot tall on what would be a much bigger plant.

At harvest you will be able to give those inner branches light If you Harvest in thirds. ITs actually better cause you still get the big buds. When you top your plant the colas get small:( . Harvest 1/3 of the plant at a time. After removingeach third give it a few days for the buds under the top 1/3 to ripen then tak another third. there is no reason to cut up you plant and basically stunting its growth to keep it small and bushy
