Hey all,

I hope the day finds each of you well. I have been scouring through these posts over the last few days and can see that you all are very knowledgeable and able to assist others with their questions. I need plenty of assistance. This is going to be my first grow. I have the land to do it outdoors. I want to do six plants, and am planning on getting clones from the local club. I understand the holes need to be about 2x2 for the plant to grow in the ground? And it sounds like at first I want to fill the hole with Fox farms Ocean soil? (the local soil is clay and no good for moving water through) But without added nutrients, from what I've read on here. Now, I've pulled up bunches of articles and forums about growing outside and it all makes it sound easy enough with time and care but I have had a tough time finding specifically if I can just bring the clones home and put them in the ground or if it is necessary to veg (?) them inside for awhile? I don't have much loot so am trying to do this as cost effectively as possible. Would also like to have them in the ground relatively soon as the weather here in N. Cal (sonoma) is just turning very sunny. I have found a few spots. Some are rather shady near blackberry brambles and the others get pretty much full day direct sun up on a hill (but well hidden). I have read some posts that say direct sunlight is too much for clones at first? Also wondering if anyone has advice on when to start adding nutrients, do I keep same soil in the entire grow? Thanks guys. I know I'm a noob at this. But I will take any advice very seriously and greatly appreciate absolutely any pointers.

Blessings-
