my first grow, need some help along the road, KB (merged with first sour diesel log)

[smokeybear420]

ok so im a new grower but im decently knowledgeable in it. Im getting 10 seeds of sour d today, and i got a pretty good spot to grow at. its a spot right next to a good sized creak and the soil looks pretty nutritious.

i was there around 9:30- 10:30 and it got a good amount of morning sun. the spot is like filled with alot of vines and tall shrubbish plants, and isnt that noticable. but im a little hazy on knowing when to harvest and the actual process of harvesting and drying, if someone could explain that to me very detailed that i would apreciate it greatly.

and if theres any steps i should take for i because its sour d or any other ways to care for it, that will be very helpful also .

It's almost July. I don't know where you live, but it is really late to be starting an outdoor crop. Most growers start their seeds in spring, just before last frost, and then have them put outdoors as small but healthy plants by the end of June. You may not have time to do a proper crop this year.

Also, Sour Diesels are pretty dense, adn if you grow in a damp area, make absolutely sure they get good breezes and morning sun.

Lot of people here growing outdoors check out some people's logs and you'll find lots of questions and answers. There is a page with Growing FAQ (frequently asked questions) too.

Good luck and hope to see good results, Bub.

i thought true Sour D is clone only?

[stinkyattic]

East Coast Sour D is clone-only.
There are a couple seed lines like 'NYCD' that are a close approximation, but in general, the chem family are clone-only and hard to get if you aren't in with the cool kids, lol.

also, how often should i water it and when should harvest time be..?

[stinkyattic]

Read the link in my signature, and the grow log/tutorial stickied at the top of the outdoor section. Sounds like you need some basic information on growing.

Water it in periods of no rainfall, and harvest it when it is ripe.
