Hello 2023 OUTDOOR SEASON!
Thought I would start this diary showing what preparations we have gone into this year for this outdoor grow and what different methods are being used.
So last year a friend came to me and said he did some outdoor the year before and they worked out well so I thought why not get some plants out and try get some free, organic, natural smoke so that’s what we did. Last years was a great year to which we started late on as previous spot got found and we still managed to make some monsters. So this year we are going all out, we have put a lot of hours into this years spots already.
When we found this spot it was a little boggy so we knew we had to get some sort of base that will allow water drainage as well as keep the pots well off the ground. Luckily for us the railway men been and cut all the trees down so we found our base. We are lucky this year to find a spot that has a water source, last year was a lot of carrying water in back packs and all sorts well this time it’s easy for us which is a bonus.
We have to bring few bags soil down closer to time of planting but we found a lot of pots and soil on the way to spot which was a bonus. We’ve added some fish blood and bone to it and turned it in. Also will be getting some chicken manure pellets to add in as a slow release then will just add biobizz nutes as the plants need. We have many pots down ready including 8L to 20L for the autos, fems will be going in ground.
Just got another few beds to make for the autos to sit on in another spot then pretty much most of the work done. Got 8 50L sacks soil to bring down as well as some other old soil which can be mixed together.
Got to set off few more fems to mother out for cuttings, will keep updating with how things are going in the outdoor spots as well as how the mothering plants are doing in the tent.
Can’t wait to get this season to get on the road, so please leave a like maybe a follow and I certainly will do the same back. Please check out my other diaries and keep growing!!
Also just a heads up there is going to be plenty of diaries happening this year on the outdoor so keep your eyes pealed!
Happy growing! 🌱
@Shooey,yes buddy there’s many challenges over here, still got many foliage to clear out, some small trees to get down, last year was pretty much same kind of area just takes some time to get it cleared. Plants not going in ground/on ground this part gonna keep them raised up best can for air flow. Yeah the traps have come in handy, started with mice digging in the pots so was stunting them, there’s a field next to woods so they come off fields into woods when farmers messing about, we will make it work haha👍🤞🏻
@Gorrilla420, interesting to see what it’s like for you over there mate,, looks challenging for sure. Lots of moss all over everything and muddy ground, high moisture area. Mouse traps! I haven’t had them before 😄
Lots of high trees around filtering the sun.
Definitely takes some navigation to get em up and running.
Good stuff mate
Your Doing well mate, hard to keep on top of it I imagine, with it being in the middle of a forest and especially with the spot not being to close to home haha. Mines a good treck away so not to easy to get to daily or even weekly with the dodgy foot lol
@Drgreen13,we didn’t expect it to grow up like it has, haha but yeah it’s abit of a treck and with other things on it’s hard to get down and keep up with it, other grows to attended to as well
@Hou_Stone,thank you pal!! First time trying this spot, needs more foliage cutting down around but doing okay to say they got some blocked light throughout the day 👍
@GrowWithFlow, thank you, just been down today and chopped another 2, we’re due some rain so wanted to get the most finished ones chopped before any mould started 👍
Immer schön zu sehen wenn pflanzen draußen wachsen. Hatte damals auch mal ein paar outdoor grows und die Ladys waren der Hammer. Ein riesen Unterschied was der Geschmack angeht . Was die Sonne ausmacht ist der Wahnsinn. Viel Glück Growmie
❤️💛💚
@AsNoriu,cheers buddy, and yeah we thinking it will be late finisher but got cuts of it so thought Chuck few out see what happens, last year had to take few plants 2 week early or so , still was a tasty smoke to say👍🌱
@Drgreen13,it was haha, was just glad they did it now and not in summer other wise they would’ve had a surprise😂 this spot could end up bring too good to be true but we will see. Cheers mate I will be keeping eye out on your updates👍
@Gorrilla420, hard work will pay off pal, I ain't gonna be able to get to my original spot in time so just gonna leave these photos on the balcony and see what happens.
