Outdoor Growing in Ireland

Congratulations mate

nice plant there mate. I proceeded and threw up a quik polythene growhouse between trees using some twine and a few polythene sheets. its by no means a masterpiece but it keeps the rain at bay.
I went to attend to my little auto seedlings today and the tent if buzzing with flies.
Should I be worried about them or are they harmless?
ANY ideas how to keep the little buztards out?
cheers

How is your auto's doing? have some Cinnamon at home growing and waiting on my Lowryder 2 seeds so very curious on what i can expect.

hey mosh,
their only 9 days old now. going not too bad. Il keep you updated.Gettin the second set of leaves now.Im trying a few different auto flowering varieties, in soil, in around 5 litre pots. Not much to lose.
So far, all are growing the same.
Hows your cinnamon going?
is it the 'female seeds' brand?
Tried that before, nice weed and geat growth potental if conditions are right.

hey Derek, yeah its from femaleseeds.nl, got them in Red Star in Derry, coming along nicely (http://boards.cannabis.com/indoor-gr...m-i-doing.html), gonna do a scrog with them, so i hope it works out.

what varities of the auto did you get, was trying to get some dutchbreed seeds but for some reason my ip appartantly didnt make the credit cards country, very odd so ended up with lowryder2. since i'll be a few weeks behind you, you can give me tips :thumbsup: don't wanna ball's them up.

I have an ideal place in the middle of a big plantation of 10ft trees, and was thinking of running a ploythene plastic sheet between four of the trees on clear clothesline cable to hold it tight, just to keep rain off them.
would an army helicopter even be able to see them or the clear sheet?
Its rarely around. maybe at most once per week just flying past.
tink il b ok, though a little reassurance s always good lol:jointsmile:

I live beside an army barracks in the south and there's a helicopter floating about every hour or so.(i hope)Its not a problem as my plants are in a cheapo mini-plastic greenhouse or sometimes just sitting out in their pots on a good day.i'm probably too careless but I doubt they are looking? Too busy playing at being soldiers

hey mosh, had a quick look at your thread. everythings lookin great.
what went wrong first time?
just keep nice air supply and use proper nutrients. I used Hesi grow scedule.
though think im gna use a flood and drain table next under a 600w.
the auto strains im trying outdoors are:
royal queen x 4
dutch passion tundra x 4
lowryder#2 x ak47 x 5
lowryder#2 x 4

their all outdoors, under a tarpollan roof with some sides to keep heavy rain off(though there seems to be a lot of moisture inside in the mornings, might be a problem when budding, anyone have any ideas/solutions?)
il get pics when their 2 weeks old on monday. bit shit lookin now lol. just little seedlings.getting their second set of leaves.
Helicopter flew straight over at 1am and the paranoia kicked in lol. Though now I know they cant see it, either that or they know it would be a waste of their time to ever bother.
I plan to water without nutrients for 2.5 - 3 weeks, then using b cuzz nutrients.
Keep the updates coming on your 250w grow, and your autos.

i have been scouting out door locations for this year .found a nice one in the mountains. its among a nettle patch.to keep every one away...im going to transplant to it during the week.AS FOR NEUTS.. i find bio grow and bloom work well both in door and out..and they are easy to use...good seeds for irish climate are EARLY MISTY,SWISS MISS AND KC 33 XMASTER KUSH ... ADD SUPER BLOOM AT THE END OF AUGUST....happy GORILLA growing

hey fourkicks, are those autos your gonna transplant?
what strains?
is it possible to grow the strains you mentioned in your previous post outdoors without any cover/shelter?
I thought once September came and the weather starts getting very rainy that the buds would rot?

ive also read about tundra(something i shuda dun b4 buyin) :mad:

and a lot of people say the dont even fuckin autoflower!!
if they dont then Dutch Passion are false advertising and they can say bye bye to my custom :S4:

Some of the fan leaves on my plants have started turning yellow.I wonder do I need to feed them more nutrients or should I just leave them alone?
