Round Three - 10 Pound Minimum Outdoor 2011

nice!!!! im subbed. got outdoor goin myself! gotta love the free sun!

So do tell how are things in the bush, ladies filling out nicely? Hope things are well keep us posted

Garden #2:

Currently I have 18 regular plants and 3 feminised autos at this location.
I put these ones out 2 weeks ago and you can see they have grown about 10 inches. Its been really crappy weather over here with lots of rain and cloudy days. Lets hope for some more sun!

I have about 15 more plants that I still need to put out before the end of the month.
Grand total of 35 plants at both locations. Keep tuned for next weeks update of Garden #1 (the bigger plants)

stealthy watching round three

Garden #1

My plants are looking great, I watered all of them with 3/4 strength Parkwood 20-20-20 All Purpose fertilizer. My big fermale is already over 3 feet tall and over 4 months old. I should have taken a picture of the stem, next time I will. I gave her a full 2 gallons (8 litres) of water and the rest of the plants I split 6 gallons (16 litres). I took off the chicken wire because the animals dont seem to be going around my garden anymore, the copper wire and slug-b-gon really helps too.

See you next week

Garden #2 + 2.1

Added another 10 plants to a place about 200 feet away from the other plants hidden away in the bush. Watered them all with 10-15-10 organic transplanter mix.
Fed and took some pics of the main garden and the three female autos.

The last 2 pics -
I had 5 Regular Auto Assassin seeds from Short Stuff that I got for free so I planted them in a soy field and will just use it to get seeds, I will only check up on it once it hasn't rained for a while. Its hard to see them in the picture but the are all facing vertically 5 in a row.

Done Planting:
Grand Total of 55
8 Autos
- 5 Auto Assassin
- 2 Fem. Big Devil
- 1 Fem. SnowRyder
47 Regular
- 19 Mango
- 2 BlueBerry
- 20 Outdoor Bagseed #1
- 6 Outdoor Bagseed #2 (aka. Boss, for the huge one I have)

How do you think everything is going so far?

looks great im subd you must live in a very distant place for you to just have your plants all out in the open

looking fantastic! now we need a fast fwrd button!! lol

awesome grow, keep us posted!!

I live just outside of a large city. My 2nd garden is just on the outskirts very close to new subdivisions, they are actually hidden a little better then the picture shows but they are on the side of a larger clearing across from a river. My 1st garden is between farm fields a little further from the 2nd spot.
Im hoping for 25 females from the 45 regular seeds. Im guessing I will start to see their sex in a couple of weeks and start to use Botanicare Bloom Pure-Blend Pro at half strength, possibly start using 1tbsp of molasses the time after.

Thanks for all the input.

doin it up! 10lb shouldn't be a problem keep up the good work

Really hope this works out for you. You're putting in a good bit of work here. I only have two things I might caution you on.

1. visiting a crop too often creates a couple serious issues such as people noticing your coming and going, and creating a noticeable trail.

2. Those plots will be dead obvious to someone flying overhead. I don't know about where you are, but I personally know people who go up in small planes in my area mapping out gardens.

Your girls look great so far though all the best to you.

Your right about both of those concerns. The first garden I have to cross an open corn field to get there wide out in the open where I could possibly be spotted. I dont think I have a problem with planes on this one, maybe just the farmer... At my second garden the marjor problem are small low flying planes, there are a lot because there is a small airport about 10km away. I made sure that the garden tries to blend in best with the surrounding smaller plants.
I am going to visit the both gardens later this week for a watering and more pictures to come.

Im taking a very big risk with both gardens but like I said in the beginning its all or nothing!

hey dude, just wanted to drop in and give ya some 2cents. not to be a penis or anything but dont get your hopes up for 10 large ones. been there, done that but you will need a few major modifications done before you'll get there.... your sites are on the small side and could be improved, (eg. more sunlight, larger holes, space for plants...) just sayin bro, its kinda late in the season too so just take that into consideration for next year. good effort dude.

Hey man, the boss is lookin very nice. what strain is that? at this point i don't see 10 lbs coming out of there man. maybe 2. there just isn't gonna be enough time to get them to completely finish

its july..... not enough time to finish? most of thost plants are are going to show sex right away. mine allready have and there the same size. they still have @ least 2.5 full months to go. even where i am and i live in central canada, gets cold up here fast.....

@ alexonfire. nice man, after i found out that you had good airy soil under neath the casing i had no doubt in you. out grows are looking alot alike other than mine are a bit close together....

Garden #2

Here are the rest the last 3 weeks there has been nothing but sun. Threse are all BC Mango.



Garden 2.1
A mix of my friends seeds.

The Snowryder turned out to be a male even though the freebie said female. The other 2 big devils.

sorry, maybe i misspoke. I'm at around 41º latitude and unless you get lucky with a really dry or warm fall, bud rot and frosts set in mid september, so you're lucky to get them to go til Oct. 10th if that(unless you have a greenhouse). I know that they're hardy plants but once the weather starts getting to the 30's at night, they really slow thier metabolism and growth down (I'm sure your're aware being from canada). we don't get 12/12 til around beginning of august, and even though my plants last year showed sex by now, some didn't start flowering til august, and they didn't have enough time to properly bulk up and really fill out. Fast flowering strains up here are a must, but if your going bag seed or running plants leaning more sativa in terms of flowering times, its hard to get them to mature fully. I don't know where you are located alex, but i'm just speaking in terms of where i'm from. Not trying to rain on anyones parade or anything, but its gonna be very difficult to get 10lbs out of there. i'd love to see you prove me wrong.

Thanks for all the input. I take it all as constructive criticism, I know im being a little optimistic but it gives me more motivation.
I expected the mango to show sex already but I hope they show sex in the next 2 weeks otherwise like you said farmer, I could be in big trouble with frost and such as I am around the 44th parallel. The bagseed is actual seed from 2 of my friends grows from last year, they pulled out 10 pounds each from about 50 females and not taken care of as well.
I think my plants havent shown sex yet because there has been so much sun the last 2 and a half weeks with no clouds or rain, once the rain comes next week they should start to show as well I gave them bloom nutrients when I watered this week instead of grow formula.

Here are my Auto Assassins, I came back a week later and they look like this... can anyone give me a diagnosis??? I wish I could get a better picture but they are right beside a subdivision and I didnt want to use my flash more than once at night. They have only been given superthrive up to this point so I dont think it could be nute burn unless the farmer put something in the soil. This in a soy field.
