My first outdoor grow... a few questions first

Alright, so I have to grow outside for certain reasons, and I have hear that you can just grow in bags, is this true? Like using a plastic grocery bag filled with soil, with holes cut in the bottom. Would that work?

Also, I was wondering if it would be alright to use fertilizers in the bags. Could anyone recomend some decent fertilizer I could pick up at a home depot or target gardening center? I am doing this grow as more of a learning experience with some bagseed, my reason for doing it cheap this time.

that should work you can also use burlap sacks as SHAMAN had explained

yes you can find ferts at home depot im not sure about target though and home depot should have growing bags for cheap a good fert to look for is organic fish emulsion it should be in a bottle and be rated 5-1-1 and works real well and dosent burn as easily and is good for begginers for flower just look for some sort of vegetable or rose ferts with a like say a 10-15-30 or somthing similar and make sure you dilute it rite and dont over do it.but you better get your plants in the ground soon or they wont get very big.

Well like I said, I dont actually care about the plants after they start growing, it was some shwag bagseed. I am just doing this to get the basics down. Even if I only get a few nugs, I'll roll a few free blunts up.

ic well in tht case just grab some miracle grow soil and toss some seeds in it an your done just water when the soil is dry see what it weighs wet and dry to get a good idea when its actually dry new people over water easily but thts the simplest way for you. hoped tht helped. oyea you can get seed from a shwag bag and grow good bud off it yea i mean its not super dank buds but the reason buds turn into shwag is cuase of the grower not knowing what hes doing.like letting it get pollinated by males and not curing rite. or growing the same seeds and producing hermaphidites.

Yea, but I knew that I would be putting them down late in the season, so I just wanted to throw things together, so that next season, i can get somewhere between 20 and 30 seeds going.

why does everybody grow in ags and pot thats why it's called outdoor dig a big ass hole fill it with some really good dirt put your little plant in take care of it and get the best you can off it and just take care of it you can't just throw it in the ground and expect it to grow don't neglect your plants you treat them right they'll treat you right and vise versa if you treat it like shit it'll treat you like shit be nice to it

to the last comment above

I agree with the pits. If your going to put in effort, might as well go balls deep and get a few pounds, rather then a few blunts. Your laziness will have a great affect on your yield. Growing in shopping bags???? LOL no

Do not do that. They are weak, White... roots will be penetrated by sunlight. Go invest in some decent 3 gallon pots if you can't manage to motivate yourself enough to dig a huge pit. Having an endless root space for your plants to grow is the best possible thing you can do for outdoor. They will get huge take advantage of it.

i was just reading this thread n wondered if i grew outdoors n harvested do i have to dig all the way down to get all the roots out before i plant anymore?

No but it helps and it would also be good to amend the soil.
