outdoor lst - come on in

[greenatik]

the ground is not an option for many of them as I can not dig more than 8 inches deep. it is very rocky they are being transplanted out of the pots into burlap bags within the week so hopefully they will enjoy that better. thanks for the heads up I read that a while back and it had me worried.

greenatik Reviewed by greenatik on 05-09-2008. outdoor lst - come on in hello everyone, thought i would share my outdoor grow this summer. i am trying to keep my plants as horizontal as possible, and so far things are looking great. they are from bagseed planted in peat bags march 21, and they have been outdoors for about 3 weeks. they are in 3 gallon pots now and will be putting them in large holes with burlap and mulch to reduce my watering frequency. I have been giving them piranha beneficial fungi, dark energy, protekt drought/heatstress protection, and Rating: 5

well i checked on my plants yesterday and ... :woohoo: ... all I can say is this next picture update is going to be a good one :thumbsup:

out of my 8, 1 is probably for sure a hermaphrodite (very unusual looking), and the rest, well they havent shown their sex yet, but one is really dark green now out of nowhere i come back a week later and its twice as dark as the other plants. the hermy and this one are the only two seeds of different genetics (i think, bagseed ya know :stoned::stoned

the pests are subsiding, and with some new stuff, diatomaceous earth for the slugs, and a pesticide with miticide that should fix the rest of whats there... hopefully

think ill post some pics in a little bit of pilav in his new home, my pc.

peace :jointsmile:

Ok folks, I don't feel like creating a separate thread for pilav, so I will just post pics and updates of both the outdoor grow and this one, which is inside a very old pc case.

I got the case for $14.50, which came with the exhaust fan and power supply. The drive bays were WELDED in place, making me wish I had splurged on a case from our century... Not going to go into details, but it involved heavy duty pliers and about 4 hours of persistence. Picked up some white poly from the hydro store, and white duct tape to make it official. I really wanted to get some spray adhesive and go that route, but time was of the essence, so I had to slam this grow together. Didn't even get to test for temp, but it seems to be cool enough

I am working on getting it 100% light tight and adding a home made carbon filter. got the idea from icmag, it involves two metal meshed pencil holders, a pair of pantyhose and some carbon. I will post pics of it when I complete it.

Pilav has been in her new home for 3 days now, on 12/12. four 23 watt cfls.

OK enough talking, on with the good stuff (pics)

5/7

plants look ok today, they were really thirsty but I couldn't visit them all week. more training has been done, which looks freakin good! :woohoo: They will wrap around in a circle once then off to wherever the best sunlight is. I have a couple of indoor plants I'd like to show off. Pineapple x lavender from a friend which was from a club, he left it sitting in a cup of water w/ it in rockwool for a week 1/2 almost killed the plant, and now, a week later, looks healthy as can be. its in botanicare cocogro under 26000 lumens in a small bin. it gets liquid karma and just started training yesterday ('low stress' training)

the other seedling is so squat and has fat leaves, that strain is God's Gift... also in cocogro...


enjoy the pics please comment! my thread is lonely :jointsmile:

This is what i came up with, SYMPTOMS Red Stems nutrient N-P-K-Mg, that are the problem.
What is calmag for i have not heard of it?
But wait for more advice dont take my word for it as someone may know different.
