First time Grower (Outdoors), Please Guide me :) Hey everyone thanks in Advance, Im a first time grower in Miami, Fl.. this might help but I live in Homestead, which is a city-town in FL, who is surrounded by crops and farms due to good sunlight duration so I figured it would be a good idea to start growing :jointsmile:.

Only prob I've ever had with rain was the plants getting washed out of the soil, but you need to watch for bud rot if flowering and make sure there's not a pool of water after the rain.

There still growing, so I dont have to worry about flowering.. but yeah I noticed some soil washed out from the top, I almost saw the roots coming out..
So I put some soil over the top. Pics will be up 2morrow.
Thanks in Advance,

Been 2 days of like 60 F out here, pretty cold for the plants i think.
there looking a lil depressed right now.. i havent watered them, cause of the cold. the soil is almost dried out.. anythign i can do to protect em?

Thanks in advance.

Greenhouse, if you have like a clear rubbermaid you could throw that over them and it'll trap heat in there from the sun. Be careful not to let them get too hot though

thanks for the pointer

Bump.
Sorry about pic delay, i promise ill have some up by tonight.
But I transplanted them to bigger, 5x5 pot with the soil i posted earlier.
Miracle Gro Cactus and Citrus Soil.
They seem to love there new homes, there doing fine. i noticed a increase in their height, and the leaves are a lilttle bit lighter green now as in healthier.

Promise to have pics up soon,
Any tips, pointers?
Should I start Foilar feeding them?
righht now i have a spray bottle with just reg balanced ph level water and i spray them occasionally when the sun is shaded for good 15mins during the day. (2-3 times at max)

and my girl is doing lovely. she smells delicious. I can see pistils already, about 2 or 3 of them. (pics coming).

Thanks in Advance.
