My First Georgia Outdoor Grow

cannabis has stuff that keeps you from getting lung cancer from the tar it gives off

uhhhh, what, really?

Hey dgs, looking good. Forgive my ignorance, but are mango and thai autoflower strains, or why are they flowering so early?

[dgsgandalf]

beautiful! how long till harvest on the last pic?

I'm not sure actually. Mango tends to grow huge buds like Bigbud, so this one could be just getting started. The trich's are all clear still so it has a good way to go.

Nice pics. Pick me some black berries when they ripen! The Mango is in the first pic? Mango X Master Kush or "The Gandolf Special!"

I found a pill bug/rolly polly on one of my plants just walking around on the leaves. Just an odd tid bit.

Lol, the blackberries are delicious! I always eat as many as i can get to when i go out there. The thorns also help deter anyone who might be interested.
All the pics are of Mango. The first one is the oddball plant that is growing much more like a sativa, but it was looking pretty bad. It might have been the heavy rain of that week, or it could be that there's not enough nutrients in the soil. I'll figure it out sooner or later...
I've found some strange/brightly colored aphids on my plants. They don't do much harm, so i usually just leave them.

Hey dgs, looking good. Forgive my ignorance, but are mango and thai autoflower strains, or why are they flowering so early?

Neither are autoflowering. The Mango is an fast bloomer (6-10 weeks) but i'm not sure why it started so soon. The Thai isn't flowering just yet. They have only shown female preflowers. I was actually thinking about taking some clones from the Thai plant and increasing my total output, but it would be pretty hard to take clones outside, move them inside, grow them a little, then put them back outside. It'll take a lot of time, and i've been feeling pretty lazy lately.



I'll prob post another update in a week or so.

Peace! :jointsmile:

Nice grow dgsgandalf, I have just moved to GA and am thinking about doing the same thing as you, if you have any pointers I would really appreciate it.

[jay420]

One more thing I forgot to ask, is it too late this year to start growing???

[dgsgandalf]

It's probably too late to start growing unless you can get some clones or autoflowering varieties. You probably have 4 months at the very very most before the weather gets too cold and destroys your plants. I would recommend trying some LowRider crosses that only take 2 months to bloom out. They don't produce as much but the smoke is good and they'll be ready in time for winter.

Recommendations for GA... replace the shitty red clay with good organic soil and make sure you keep your plants watered. If you get out there once a week and check ground moisture you should be fine. During dry spells you may have to check more often.

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask and i'll do my best to help you out.

Peace!

Thanks for the reply dgsgandalf, I am also interested in meeting new people in the area instead of driving to Ohio every time to "meet" my friends. Let me know if you are looking for some toker buddies. I also have some items that you may want to plant if you are interested....GREAT strains. Let me know as soon as possible. I am in the Buford/Cumming area are you anywhere near me?

:rastasmoke:

[jay420]

The strains are White Widow and Blueberry Kush both are feminised and I also have Afghani but those are not all females.

[jay420]

Also, do you think if I planted these strains right now....would it just be a waste because the season won't be long enough? I have never grown before and wanted to know if I plant these and they don't don't fully bloom, would the smoke even be worth it? I really appreciate all of your help.

By the way, I just finally had time to look at ALL the pics you have posted and it is absolutely amazing...keep up the great work!!! I have been wanting to grow for awhile now and those pics get me even more amped!!!! I had a question about your grow also, how bad is the smell? I have an idea where to plant but there is a walking path and wanted to know how far into the woods I should go so that no one will be able to see/smell from the path.

Peace and be safe!
