Yeah, I live in Western Washington State. I live in the Northern Part though, Vancouver BC is only 4 hours away.

My plants rooted 2 1/2 weeks ago but have only been outside for a week and a half. If you count how long it took the clones to root( 1 1/2 weeks) and include that in the total, i would say theyre 4 weeks old.


I just LST'ed them the other day and you can see in the pics how they respond to it. Its been 2 days and every single top is getting equal sunlight and growing into a big stalk. In 2 weeks i will LST each branch again.

I have some seeds from one of last years crops that i popped a couple of weeks ago. They're a sativa dominant strain, but i am really just gunna use the males to pollinate some of my other plants. Ive started them outside instead of inside to help them get hardy so they can handle the road ahead of them.

The strains i will be growing with this season will be Sensi StarXRed Dragon, Blueberry, and This Purple strain ive been growing for a year.


I have 5 plants that i pre vegged for a month indoors and i just put 3 of them up in the woods. Theyre about 1 foot tall and theyve already been topped. I plan on LST'ing them soon,

I have 11 more clones that are rooting as we speak and I will veg them for a little inside, and then transplant them into the woods.


I am Using FF ocean forest soil, and Im using 3 gallon grow bags because i have to pack the dirt up there and the bags are convienent. I plan on cutting the bottoms off and planting them in the ground eventually. I can also fertalize them indivdually (i plan and using the fox farms trio and a whole other lineup of goodies!)


The first plant in one of the SSXRD clones that just got hardened off.

The second is the Blueberry.(she is indica dominant and like to start short, she also looooooovvveeesss the cool Pacific NW weather. It also doesnt hurt that she flowers for about 7-8 weeks tops, making bud mold less of an issue)

The last pic is of a SSXRD cola. ALMOST DONE. I got these seeds from a North Cali grower and its been my champion yielder. It has big leaves like an indica but the Red Dragon(Brazilian genetics i believe) gives her a a little bit of a sativa influence. Some of the Calyxes and leaves even turn a slight red/pink during the end of flowering

I am going up there today and will take pics of my plants that are up in the woods. I have to spend the whole day packing supplies up there(my back already hurts)

Get ready for a long summer my friend...lol, hopefully you don't have a drought.

Good luck!

i know my back hurts already. Im not worried about a drought, i live in pretty wet area and the creeks never dry up, There is a creek 25 yeards down hill from my first patch. I will find a way to keep them watered during the summer.

If everything doesnt get moldy and my crop doesnt get stolen or raided, I expect to have enough purple and green weed to smoke for the rest of the year( or until i haverst some more of my indoor buds heheh).

Who knows, maybe itll "SAVE" me enough money that I can afford to get back in the University Of Washington.

sweet its been 65-70 degrees for the past three days and its suppose to stick around for the rest of the week.

Its about time for me to venture up in the sticks and take some clones.

i had 12 clones but my bro set the timer up wrong and the light schedule was all fucked up. I just threw them out, took my t5's from his place, and decided that if you wanna do things right, you gotta do it yourself.

I have 5 clones in my DIY bubble cloner. I had te air pump and air stones laying around so i thought ide use them. The neoprene inserts are like 25 cents a piece.

Theres some of my recently harvested indoor bud. 6 and 1/2 oz's off of just one plant!

I have been bending the crap out of my mothers that are already in the woods. If i didn't bend them over they would probably be 2 feet tall already, but i want them to stay short and inconspicious.

im set back a little bit because my clone situation got screwed up, now i gotta wait a couple of weeks until my news ones are ready to go in the woods.

fyi - you dont need humidity domes for bubble cloners. they will just trap more heat and warm up the rez. also the bottom of your cloner should provide darkness underneath. roots hate light. bust out the duct tape and black it out

thanks. I really dont need a hood though? Im just afraid theyll dry out. I dont have the cuttings sumerged in the water, theyre just above so the bubbles pop on them so its not like theyre just sitting in container of water. Are they still getting enough water from the bubbles to keep them from drying out?

ya lose the hood. as long as your bubbles are splashing the root tips like crazy then your good. you only spray clones and use humidity domes on rockwool or plugs as your cloning medium. bubble cloners, all you do is put the cutting in and watch your water temp and ph. thats it. no spraying or using humidity domes. thats why people love em so much. they are easy.
