hey mindcrimey, best of luck this season. i too plan on growing white widow outdoors this spring, but this will be my first time with store bought seeds. i am however, a seasond grower of bagseeds. i grow in tennessee.

look out for any small anamals because they will most likely eat seedlings. also, look
for any bugs eating your plants.

care for them with plenty of water, good loose soil, and a good 20-20-20 fertilizer for the veg. stage, then swich to a good bloom fert in aug. or sept.
hope this helps and i hope, for both of us, white strains do good outdoors.

btw, do you already have seeds? i got mine from cannabis pro.

Howdy mindcrimey,

I live in Texas and I'm wondering where yer at,because there's alot of different terrain and climates in Texas. Here in North Central Texas,one can expect to have problems with grasshoppers and deer. You may want to pre-treat the area where you plan to grow,with an application of neem oil,it will disrupt the life cycle of the grasshopper population. As for the the deer,you should either git a deer repellant..or simply piss in a big circle,around yer plants,the smell of human urine,will drive alot of animals away..you still may want to put up a camoflaged fence.

In South Texas,the humidity gits real high and you may have some problems with mold. Overall,however..I think that weed grows real well here ,outdoors,if you can keep the critters away. You may be interested in some organic,safe insect repellents,there's some recipes to make your own,at http://www.dirtdoctor.com/index.php , another link for ya, http://www.texasorganicgrowers.com/ ,hope these help..can't recall if there's any grow zone info-but you should look for it,for your area.

Have a good one...Torog

When your growing outside in very hot weather I was told you're supposed to grow the plants young life inside and move it outside so that it has more of a survival chance. Old thread tho. Goodluck.

i also heard in hot climates like nevada and texas it helps to grow the plants in the shade with onl 5-6 hours of direct sunlight to keep from cookinem
