A few questions..

[seattlesmoke247]

I have been researching and am planning on getting out about 40 plants next year. If I use feminized seeds they will all turn out to be ladies correct, or am I under a misconception.

What strains would be good for Washington I want to try 4 strains, 10 different plants..

There are a lot of slugs around here, that being the case I heard sprinkling tobbaco around the crop helps with slugs, or a cup of beer however that would look WAY too sketchy around a grow.

I have planned on doing this in the trees however I think it would be a pain to transplant 40 different plants into different pots when they get root bound and would rather just plant directly into the ground.

It rains a lot here what will be my major problems, should I get anti mold resistant strains.. If planted in a tree they seem they'd get way better sunlight and I may actually get a better yeild.. Maybe I should start smaller and just do it in the trees to begin with, say 10-15 plants.. Give me your input.

Thanks.


Any help//Advise//Critisicm would be greatly appreciated.

Try 10 plants or less until you know WTF you're doing. Feminine seeds = female plants. Not good for breeding.

There are answers to your questions in multiple threads, answered several different ways, all over this forum, go read.

Feminised seeds are not 100% ALWAYS female, I have read on these forums of people getting one or two out of a pack of 25 or more, so don't worry about that.

And you said you're planting in the trees? wtf does that mean? Are you literally going to be growing MJ in a tree canopy?...idk about that one

And I feel likewise as to what SouthernGuerilla said

[seattlesmoke247]

Okay thanks, yes I have been reading and taking notes I will continue to.. I do mean in the trees I would design holders that could hold two five gallon buckets and put them up in places they would get the most sunlight. It's kind of hard to find Washington specific information, however I will keep looking I am sure I am still a noob at using this sites functions. I will only try about 10 I suppose I have a long time to plan for it however.

Thanks guys,,

Won't it seem kind of suspicious if you keep climbing up and down your tree every week?...just a though

[seattlesmoke247]

Nobody would see me climbing, if they did I would be screwed though.. Lol, there are woods all around I am confident I can find isolated places. Maybe the ground is a better idea since I am still a n00b this was just one of my ideas, there are a lot of thick trees around and even if somebody was walking through the woods and they looked up there are evergreen branches blocking the view you can't see 1/3 the way up a tree from the ground.

EDIT: Keep those thoughts coming

[SunnyD]

I'm thinking sticking with ground is a good idea, I would just be worried about a good gust of wind coming and knocking all your hard work down on the ground...

[seattlesmoke247]

Ahh, yeah I remember that was one of my concerns.. Sorry I smoke too much. Pretty soon I'll be off my crutches and I'll be able to go narrow down my spots and prepare them. There were some nasty winds here a few summers ago, good thinking

Any reccomended seeds for Washington, something anti-mold resistant I have read.. Any other genetic traits I should be looking for?

[wman44]

i've tried growing on the ground in pine forest'sas well as up in the tree's....never got enough sunlight eitherway.
just my 2 cents

[seattlesmoke247]

I suppose I'll have to find a sun spot, or a different place.. Hard to get too far away from trees you know being in the Evergreen State
