Looking forGuerilla tips and planting wild

I just started a handful of freebies and want to plant them outside somewhere and let them pretty much grow wild. My plan is to go plant them, only check on them once to cull the males, and then return to harvest. My biggest priority is not getting busted... I do not mind if this fails or I get a shitty yield as long as I minimize the chances of getting caught, and I won't be putting any money into it. I will be keeping the seedlings for a week, maybe 2-3 to get a good veg and rootball in DWC. I have never grown outdoors other than a "plant 'n forget" grow when I was a teenager.

There are a lot of rivers and lakes, plenty of rain, but much of the soil is red clay, so finding a suitable place is one challenge. What are some things to look for... such as are there certain types of plants I should watch for that would indicate fertile, aerated soil? Obviously stay away from people. Maybe look for a close water supply like a stream... make sure decent sunlight... not sure what else to consider.

I will probably disperse them into 3-4 patches mixed in with other vegetation. Is there anything I should watch out for as far as bugs... like I see lots of spider webs around here, maybe they would be a natural predator for cannabis predators... watch out for nearby vegetation with caterpillars would be a bad sign. Are there any obvious friendly things or enemies I should watch out for... lady bugs, spiders, bees, certain species of plants, etc.

The seeds are in rapid rooters. The plan is to dig a small hole and transplant into native soil with a little coco and ancient alaskan forest humus.... maybe sprinkle some pond-zyme around the crown and water with mycogrow soluble, aquashield, cal/mag, and liquid karma. Come back at some point during flower and check on them, cull males, maybe another watering. I have black strapped molasses I would probably drizzle around the crown during flower, but not sure if it's useful... I just have it to brew bennies for hydro.

Come back around early november to harvest.


Also I was thinking about how would be best to go about planting some seeds in the wild next spring to just grow and spread as it will. I feel like more people should do this, even if it's just throwing bag seed out the window. Short of just tossing magic beans out the car window... and without a lot of effort and time thinking about it: how would you spread seeds to grow wild, and what strains would you use... landrace seems like the obvious choice, but still...

Hi Mate,

Welcome to the wild world of guerilla lol... You've got most of it down if you have water man, that's the back-breaker. You say you want to take on a PROPER guerilla grow next time so that alone is already excellent, in my personal experience the first crops in a patch will pretty much tell you what predators and other issues you will have for that patch/area. Also very good that you are not expecting a huge yield yet. This means your crop can only do one of two things: Live up to your expectations or exceed them!

I have bad news for you: There is no such thing as great soil for guerilla growing, all the nice squishy soft stuff is in shade most of the time. You just have to think of it a bit differently: You can either move some humus-rich soil from the forest floor (if you do have forest at all) into your holes you will be planting into. But you WILL have to dig a little either way so take the right kit for that. Your idea for how to treat the holes is a great one, except maybe go for sphagnum peat instead of coco, if you can add a bit of a buffer that would be excellent, but remember small hole equals small plants. Clay is a BASTARD.

You're going to have a hard time watching the bugs... In the great outdoors they are spread out far and wide, but you are about to put some nice beacons in to attract them with, the softest, most juicy food they can imagine. Forget abut the bugs, sure they'll be munching away but nothing like in a home garden, remember everything will have it's natural predators around and should be in balance, or better balance than you can have at home at least.

Focus on protecting the stems of your plants. The two things that take out the most outdoor plants are mice/rats and deer or other antelope. NOTHING you can really do about the latter unless you go there often and make sure it smells like predator. If you have a wildlife reserve or a zoo close by, lion shit works a treat. Soap shavings also help. For the former, rats and rabbits, COLLAR THE PLANTS. Old plastic plant pots with the bottom cut out work pretty well for mice. They don't really eat the plants, they're thirsty and use them as little water fountains.

For next spring, is your focus on a good crop or just getting cannabis growing wild? If it is the former, then you need to choose a sunny spot, go out there in winter and prepare your reservoir complete with hidden piping from your water supply, I look for natural hollows I then dig out a bit more and line with black plastic, and then cover the res with long branches and leaves and all sorts of stuff from around the patch. You also need to dig up your planting holes and get some compost in there at least a month or so before planting, preferably 2. Once again, dead branches and so to camouflage is a good idea.

If you want them to just grow wild, then you have to go for a spot that is not exactly ideal, permanently moist. This means lots of shade and spindly plants, but a wild patch can give you some badass hash-making material after 2 years or what. But I advise caution, our wild patch ended up pollinating a whole fucking valley. HEADACHE. Every one of our spots was seeded, so we had to make the hike and get rid of it all.

I can go on about this for HOURS but it seems like you have it pretty jacked, and seeing as this is a 'practice run' for you you will be learning a lot about your challenges in your area, and that is the big thing for successful guerilla growing: KNOW THE LAND.

All the best mate, the worst thing that can happen is you getting extra exercise in nice surrounds with tons of fresh air

Thanks man, that is good shit... For the wild planting I wasn't really thinking about coming back for bud... just spreading genetics to grow freely in the wild. I think I will be able to find a spot for these seedlings; there are a lot of woods for hundreds of miles.

If you aren't going back for buds then what are you worried about?? You won't wanna pull males if that's the case and you can plant them and never go back or wait a few years and see if you have wild pot lol although if it was that easy I think there would be a shit ton of wild weed forests..

wear bells.........
