First grow, outdoor, bagseed. Help me

[pushit]

Keep you're head up bro, the growth pattern looked good so your doin somethin right :thumbsup:

And if you're gettin heat like we are in Tx, a layer of mulch or straw,etc will help hold moisture. Otherwise, my plants' soil evaporates faster than its absorbed. Just lookin out.

Stay Lit

Thats a good idea just watch what you are using. Pine straw will drop the ph severely. Blueberry bushes, for example, like ph around 4 so pine straw helps with them. Just a little info i picked up this year:thumbsup:

Thanks guys. Tryin to do what I can. I will try the mulch. I had heard some bad things about it causing problems with mold n fungus, and rot, so I didnt use it, bit if you guys say its good, I trust you, so off I go tp get some. Pulled another male today, also, looked just like the other one. Little clusters. Girls dont do that, huh. Just 1 lil flower/ calyx? Thanks for all the help. Think I got 1 lookin to be girl, bit I gotta wait a lil longer to tell. Wish I had a better camera....

Like i said just research what you use. I personally dont use anything to cover the soil for like you said, i fear mold, pests etc. Some do , some dont. Its nothing for me to go outside and water. Part of the job. If you do decide to go with mulch, try a couple to see how well it does.

Females youll see little white hairs coming from where your are seeing clusters.

You'll have enough time to tell the males before they start droppin pollen.

Hey all, I got a lil problem. On most of the plants the bottom sers of leafs have yellowed n died. I really havnt givin em any nutes is a while, should I give em a shot, or is this normal?

Got a pic?

[Bobthis]

Sorry man, no pics yet. Pourin rain here, and I really aint up to trekkin thru the jungle in a storm to take a few pics. I dont think its anything too serious, so they will be ok. I gave em a weak fert mix last evening, and now with the rain, ill check on em tomorrow, and see how they are doin, and take some pics if they still look a lil weak. My mutant plant has turned out to be the best lookin one, and a plant I burned with nutes that topped itself is doin good. Got 3 main stems on it now. Hope its a girl.... 3 colas?!? Its a lil small, think it got stunted by the trauma, but its pullin thru. Thanks for all the help!

If they've grown a good bit since the last pic, They're probably old enough to start a feeding schedule as well.

I always fed every other watering, starting at 1/2 strength at this stage. Especially since your medium doesnt have many nutes to start with. What you did feed may have been leached out by the heavy rain you mentioned.

How often do you plan to go out there? I live in deep south as well (south Tx) and grow a variety of veggies outside in 3 gallon pots. I have to water Every day, and I use MG every third watering. So i was just a little concerned for ya here.. If its a good trek to your spot, I was thinkin you may wanna plant em in the ground instead so youll have to water/feed less frequently.

Just a thought

Well, most of em seem to be doin ok. Gonna try to make sure I give em a lil more water, and start feedin em more. This heat is crazy! Ill try to get some pics tomorrow. Got one thats lookin really good. Cant tell sex yet, tho. Gonna look em all over real good tomorrow, see whats up. I cant thank you guys enough for the advice.
