ya i try to stay away from using existing soil usually. but mainly because theres so much rock in my area.

That's what pick-axes are for...j/k.

My soil is clay, which is loaded with locked nutes etc. It's farming country actually, now I know what the original settlers had to go through when working land for the first time.

my soil is rock and clay and i would need a damn jack hammer here not just a pick ax. better yet some TNT.

Been there before. Seen a wild Boar once with a pick-ax strapped to his back, the ground was so dry & hard. Put some Mother Nature on it ass, 98 billion,trillion microbial lives that will work/areate/break down nutrients 24/7. She didn't have a fucking tiller, the microbs & worms made the soil perfect & balanced. The needed stuff is molasses, Thrive, compost tea, & liq. seaweed on the soil. The buds, plants, is only an after-product. Period. With good, healthy, living soil, any idiot can grow the primo of all primos. Check out dirtdoctor.com, the library. Learn what liq.seaweed does to spidermits & roots, or molasess, cornmeal, etc. Good luck.

anything less that 12/12 sunlight & you'll start the flowering process. Outdoor, counting shde, 13 hrs min. sunlight. I start indoors, 23 to 24 straight 1,000 watt light mover until 13 hrs outdoor light, around May 20th. 10 gal. space is good. In pots, not good. Once a plant gets so big, one person can't move the thing anyway, so why not plant in the ground?

Well last year I had 10 Max and my plants didn't start to flower untill the end of August/ early September....shit was pissin me off lol but yeah I got a rock breaker I like to use to help break up hard soil and well smash big ass fucking rocks lol but they should get almost all day sun this year and yeah I'm not betting on them I just hope the super autos which are sativa Dom will produce like 2 os a plant maby 1 idn anything more than 1/2 o and I'd be semi happy lol
I think I was just given 3 spots to grow but I have yet to seen them

For outdoors, you can easily get 10 pounds from 10-20 plants. If you pick strains right (for the area/climate), and take good care of them, then you will. Talking from personal experience here.

Plain and simple dont get you hopes up going from a half ounce to ten pounds. Especially since you seem to be quite a new grower. Shoot for a pound and dont be pissed off if you pull 2 ozs quadrupling your last attempt.

Yeah I know it's a Long story blows and plus I started June 20th last year and didn't have a spot prepped which I'm already doing now but the best part is someone wants me to help them grow and they said I can through some seeds in over there and she's got 3 spots that she thinks would be good so I think I get to have an extra 10 plants and ive been doing alotta of research on these super autos and finding alot of people saying they averaged 4 ounces a plant with the mi5 which stands for my idoor #5 but I think it can be out out side plus I Wat to try that super Cali haze and some reg ww auto from Dina fem heard good things about them

Last year I had 16 half masterkush and half swiss cheese and I ended up with a qp per plant give or take. The ground was less than a foot deep in some spots and was mostly peat moss mixed with my soil mix. A few droughts and they still survived. If you have the right food and take care of your babies you will be able to hit your goal. Just make sure your plans have thier own holes of custo soil

yeah i just found out that a local garden center owner smokes tree and i was looking at his bud and it was obviously outdoor so i started questioning him and kinda fucking with him lol and well basically he ended saying a few things that only someone who has or does grow would know lol but i go out every few day and dig and plan on making like single raised beds for each of my holes aka plants lol dont know if its gonna be made out of old fence board/palettes or use the 5 gal buckets from last year but painted....... i think im going with the wood lol but il probably end up doing both just to experiment hahaha but on another topic has anyone been watching that show weed country on discovery.....dude was talking about a pound in cali being like a grand maby 1500 and thats medi weed. here its like 1500 a qp for like the best which is like mid grade to you western folk lol sorry just thought that was crazy

oh yeah im digging at least 2 feet down per plant that isnt auto

hell ive seen 7 or 8 POUND plants. not something you see very often but its possible!

its all possible but its all down to whether or not my ass can do this lol there is rocks everywhere but i do got that 50 lbs steel or iron bar (i should probably take a look at that lol) i mean if i can get around an 0 off the sativa dom autos which i plan on like 15 of them plus some ww auto by dina fem than some heavy indica photos for a hopefully good harvest that it before mid October lol im think hso blue dreams and bubbah kush and hell i don't remember the rest of the strains i want lol but ive found new spots that dont have much clay at all like the soil was like black for a foot down even though there was rocks than it barley started to turn that reddish grayish color with some sand but it looks good to grow in with some extras additives like peat moss and some perlite but hell who knows at this point i plane on putting germed seeds in the ground around 420 because it just so happens thats the last predicted frost date in my area lol

Good luck bro , I had similar goals. I'm now half way through flowering and have lost most from overwatering , had an extremely wet late summer been raining a little bit for the last 30 days with the odd 100mm downpoor , lost a couple to hermie and now I'm left with a handful of monsters , might get half way there : )


All these gurus don't lie , outdoor grows have a way of not going as well as planned

Lol I'm all loaded up on chicken wire... Last year I made a fence of chicken wire around my spot than some around the plants but didn't dig them in

Lol I'm all loaded up on chicken wire... Last year I made a fence of chicken wire around my spot than some around the plants but didn't dig them in so I'll be just going around each plant and dig them in a few inches

yeah hahah i watched that show to they had 2 episodes on discovery.. i dont know what it goes for in cali but i think its also because they had like 60+plants some guys on there were getting busted with 200+ plants when you have to move that much you start giving bulk prices

Hell like I'm half tempted to drive literally across the country an buy a few pounds and bring it back lol it would be like 3 grand profit per pound lol

You are going to need at least 8 hours of full sunlight to get decent plants. You said soil was bad too. We can buy compost for 25 dollars a truckload. For 100 dollars I get a dump truck full. Check on that, that is way cheaper than buying by the bag. I get 1 lb plants all day long. Put them in the ground, you won't get more than a few oz from a 5 lb pot. Water is very important as well. I would get clones now and veg as long as you can so you are putting in bigger plants. Put chicken wire around plant so deer won't eat. If you can't water daily, they sell tree stakes for 8 dollars, but I use 2 foot long white plumbing plastic pipe, put in a 2 liter or milk jug of water upside down, cut off the top and when it rains, it will fill up and water the plants. Also bury a diaper at the base of the plastic pipe, and this will hold water for your plants, not just evaporate. This really works, I do this with my potted plants that dry out quickly.

The soil my isn't bad once u get all the rocks out but I know I'll have to put some stuff init like gravel and sand at the bottom of those holes than I'll have peat moss and perlite mixed into it and plus some good ol horse shit lol
