Cool man, ill go pick one up. Thanks for the tip. I just wish I could stop the rain. Not too much I can do about the water they are gettin, meybe rig up some sort of shield to cover most of the pot, to keep most of the water out, but let em still get sun. Its a long walk thru woods, and I dont make it out there every day, so I cant put a tarp over em. Also, dont wanna alert the pork choppers flyin around to any of my activities...... Thanks for the help

Each of the boxes of nutes will last for multiple grows. Just make sure you keep them in a dry place cause humidity and moisture will cause it to set up like a brick. They have several choices of MG soil also. I would recommend the MG organic. It cost a little more but i think its worth it. Now a lot of MG soils come with time release nutes already in them. Whether it be 4, 6, or 9 month. Its all your choice what to use. Depending on what kind you get as to how much nutes you should add every other watering. Say you get the 9 month, you shouldnt have to add nutes the whole grow unless you want to. You just kinda play it by ear. Hope this helps a little. Good luck

If you get pre ferted soil do not add any nutes or you will fry your plants, i did a grow with it and did fine. But add more ferts and you might burn em all up. The 3 month kind would be the best. Use the KISS method:)

Its up to you though.

Thanks for the help man. I didnt go with pre ferted, I went with earthgro..... Its cheap, drains really good, and seems to be workin good. I hit em with some super diluted mg blue, cuz its got high N, and everywhere says N is good for veg, so........ They seem to be doin good, so far. Im gonna check out youroutdoor grows, see if I cant pick up a few things

I did an outdoor grow my first time with just a bunch of bag seeds. I think about 25-30, about 12 were females and about 7 survived either being eaten, or other problems. Hope yours goes much better. I also had to backpack all my water out as it was in a national park.

Yeah, my goal is at least ten girls. How much did you harvest frm your 7. People are tellin me that 10 would give me like 2 pounds.
My plants are about 1/4 mile thru woods. But its my property, and my buddy has a truck, and likes offroadin, so we took 3 cases of bottled water out there to water with, along with dirt. Way better than humpin a ton of dirt n water. I hope everything goes good. Thanks for stoppin by

Well, rain stopped, and sun is out. Glad to see it! My oldest, biggest plants are startin to stink. Awesome! well, now the bad news. I dunno what happened, but some of the plants look like the new growth is burned, kinda brown and dyin. Most made a comeback and are growin new growth. 1 of em lost the whole growth node, and just has a lil stem stump growin from the last node. But the good news is that it started sprouting from every stem/leaf intersection. So, we will see. I dont know if it was the weak dose of mg blue they got, or the Bonide pyrethrine spray I hit em with. Might have sprayed a lil heavy, cuz I had some spider mites, and we kept gettin rain, and I wanted to kill tje bugs, cuz they were raping my lil babies. So, I sprayed them 4 times in a week. Is that too much? I dunno what caused the damage, but it seems to be gettin better. Might have been the mg, cuz it seems like it didnt bother the bigger ones. Guess they handled the nutes better. Well, you live n learn. Will put up some new pics soon. Gonna transplant more into 5 gal buckets tomorrow. Cant wait till I can sex em. Excited to see how many sexy girlies im gonna get...

Thanks for the encouragment, man. If you got any suggestions for me, from any of your amazing grows and experience, let me know. Need all the help I can get

New pics from yesterday.... My oldest plant

Heres some pics of my mutant plant. Sprouted with no leafs, and been growin crazy. Looks kinda gimpy, but healthy. I dunno... I really want it to make it, and be a girl, just to see what happens.

Well, today makes a month old for a few of my oldest babies. Most of em are about a week younger. Gonna transplant the rest of em outta the red cups today. Puttin em in 2 or 2.5 gallons. That should get me thru sexin em, then toss the girls in 5's. Went out n seen em earlier. Lookin good. Few mite webs, but I cleaned em up n sprayed em. All the burned/damaged growth is healed up. It seems to have promoted some branching growth from all the nodes in the worst ones, but the tops seem to be showing new growth. Ill try to get pics wjen I transplant. All in all, seems to be goin really good!
