Hello RIU.

I have ordered 40 seeds of folowing genotypes:
Bubblegum x Pot
Afghani
Early Durban
Erdbeer x Skunk
Kush
Nepal
Passion#1
Purple Passion
Pot x Cronic
Highlander

I will let 20 of them germ, and stick them in the ground, they will spend the first two weeks on my roof, where they will be able to grow strong, which leds me to my first question will this be enought to produce enough buds for me and my friend (modarete smokers)?

I have found a nice place in a forrest where there are not many people, i though have the problem that i don't have a car, and i wont be able to have dirt on my bike, so is it okay to just plant them in the ground, after having turned the soil? I'm also quite nervous about snails, would it be okay to spread salt around my grow area (about 1 meter to a half from my plants)?

I will be visiting them once a week (maybe more) too control the spread of weeds and to water them. I though have a small problem again, i would like to spread some of my plants (five) so they stand under small trees, will they get enough light?

Now for my last question, how easy is it to spot a cannabis plant? I don't have to worry about choppers, but there are quite a lot of runners, and I know the scouts are in the area, but they are max 16, will this be any problem?

Thanks for your time :)

I`m from other side of Baltic sea,not sure about buble gum pot and cronic??
You can put seeds straight into ground,after they germed..survival rate might be lower than with seedlings..

I only use paper towel method..beware of frosts in next few days,not a big problem on my side of lake,but check weather broadcast for next days,should be last frosts of spring,cause weather is shite in Northern Europe right now....have to check my Ruderalis Indica seedlings,I put themstraight into prepared site..one thing for sure Sensi Seeds are mint..100% germination rate..and I got first time problem with Nirvana seeds..Hollands Hope got 0% germination...I would be really angry,if those were my only seeds..bloody angry..god luck Viking

Thank you :) I have just planted 18 out of the 21 seeds that i germed, they have been in jiffy pots for about 4 days, but they still haven't comme up, is this normal? I have the kind of jiffy's that are really small and then they expand when they get water, so i always keep a little water in the bottom so they wont dry out, is this okay?
Thank's again :)

The first one has finaly come up, not by much, but i can see the seed is now laying on the dirt, with a root going down. I suspect they couldn't get enough air, because they had a lair of 1/2 cm of water, so the pots just sucked it up, i now water individualy, I will hopefully soon get some pics up :)
