On monday (day 22) we put them outside. The weather was sunny until wednesday, it has been raining and cloudy on thursday and today, very little sunshine.
I would have preferred to put them outside sooner, but the temperatures did not permit that. The Passion #1 got started off with horse manure in their plantholes, the autos with bat guano. All plants received a first watering with horsetail extract.
The autos all started flowering. Today (day 26) they got bent down, using a soft wire. Two of the Passion #1 got topped (1+7). The third (4) gets a couple of days more to develop.
Plants are looking great man
Fingers crossed for good weather 🤞🤞
Im still in vegative phase here and don't know what to expect from this summer 😄
If I can give u any advice first one would be to double check everything for budrot. It spreads very easily and u always notice it too late because it works its way from inside to outside 😒😔
2nd advice is to make some shelter if u know it's gonna be shitty weather. 1 rain will not destroy your crop but continuous bad weather, humid conditions and cold temperatures will.
Happy growing buddy 🙏🤜
@Clutch, Thx mate, I will double check! Your advice is highly appreciated, since I am an outdoor newbie.
I may come back to the shelter idea this fall. The ICE are now harvestable without to much loss, so I'd rather start a new batch, than fiddle with this one. Also: I am very eager to test my new bubble bags!
Wow your soil must be pretty rich in nutrients. The plants look super healthy. What camera are you using for the close-ups? Good luck with your first legal grow✌️
@BudBeezy, Thanks mate! We invested some work in the soil before we put the plants in. My first post shows what we did. Also I already fed guano, horse manure and compost tea since they got put outside.
As a camera I just use my phone (Pixel 7). For the makros I got some cheap usb microscope from amazon, it connects to my phone.
Well done Germany 👏👏👏
Hopefully your neighbour country with the same flag colors follows quickly but I doubt it
Gonna follow along with your grow too.
It's a very nice spot u have chosen 😉
Looking fantastic man wow 😍😁
For defoliation I would just say to pick away all bad leaves that u see or the ones that get used by the plant. If u pick them away like every 2 weeks the plants can still use them as food and u pick them away at the right time before they can spread diseases but while they still had a good purpose for the plant
Hope u get some good results from those monsters 💪
Happy growing 🙏
@Clutch, Thank you! And also for the advice! That is what I was doing so far. I'll just keep at it. I have been pruning away most of the inner lower shoots and some of the leafs, that shaded the upper buds. Just like I do it indoor. Fingers crossed for a dry fall.
Good luck everything looking amazing , personally I would've just made the holes and fill them up with pro mix special for weed and plenty of Vermiculite ,usually the direct earth is not so good for them (autos') but as you did it looks sweet and organic ,loving it ! Happy growing , GG Germany so happy for ya'll, a whole chapter of exploring begins
@Boomer911, Thank you! I thought about putting fresh soil in the holes, but that would have meant getting roughly 3,5 cbm of soil, thats 3 trips with my small trailer. Also I would have needed to make a home for the 3,5 cbm of soil I am replacing. The plan is to steadily improve the soil we have. We will mulch eventually, that should help.
Witzig, wie deine Cream ungefähr so viel yield hatte wie meine. Und deine wächst auch so sonderbar.. Deshalb vielleicht ein geschenkter Samen, weil das öfter vorkommt? Naja, gute Trichomen Ausbeute definitiv! Bei mir ist fast kein Aroma würd ich sagen, wenn dann leicht fruchtig
