Well I'm not going to be able to tend to my plants after mid July. They will be on their own until harvest. This is why I was considering have a water source that will allow me to not be present. I do like the idea of the pump and sprinkler, but I would think it'd be much easier and far less expensive to carry any container out to the site and water them by hand.

I have an IMPORTANT question that I'd like to hear some feedback on. What is the likely hood that my plants will stay alive by themselves for roughly 2 months. I predict that my plants will be around 2-3 feet by the time I'll be leaving them. I understand that this is determined by many things but I'm wondering if all I really have to be concerned about is the risk of a real long dry spell or if there is anything else that I have to take into account because of my absence. I would like to know now if you guys don't think the plants will have a good chance so I can save a lot of time and energy.

On another note I was thinking about using a mixture of 1/2 potting soil, 1/4 cow manure, 1/8 clay, 1/8 soil that is found at the site. I'm looking for something that can hold water fairly well, I'm sure some of you guys have way better soil formulas and I'd like to hear them if your willing. Thank you.
PassItToTheRight Reviewed by PassItToTheRight on . Growing in The Danger Zone Holla. I am trying to grow outdoors this year for the first time in about 5 years. The last time I did it I was in high school and it didn't turn out all that great. I have started some Juicy Fruit seeds indoors. I think I'm going to grow them for the entire month of May indoors and plop them outside at the start of June. I plan on moving across the country at the end of July. I'll be able to care for the plants a little bit up until about mid July and then their on their own. Will Rating: 5
