Semi guerilla grow

I'm starting a semi guerilla this year and would appreciate any help you folks would like to give up. I say semi guerilla since some will be discreetly placed in acquaintance's back yards and some strait up guerilla style. I've grown many many moons ago and I have to say some things never change and on the flip side "WOW" ,,whoever thought I could buy premium seeds from my phone,,,and autoflowers what are those ?? .. Speaking of seeds , I need some good recommendations. I have a few in mind along with some autoflowers maybe. The guerilla plants will need to be earlier flowers to help avoid in rippers,hunters,early frost etc.. Location is in the North East U.S. Think Woodstock area. I will be mixing my own soil. Base soil is 15+ year old manure (now just basically black dirt), and I will be mixing in, worm castings, a little perlite, guano, blood meal, bonemeal , and a little Epsom salts. The guerilla plants won't be tended to much so the soil will need to be as best as possible in order to keep the plants going with minimal visits . Any recommendations on soil will be much appreciated. The possible autoflowers will be neighbors with tomatoe plants , some average garden veggies ,along with some more oderous herbs/spices and can be tended to more but need to be on the shorter end.

This may be a dumb question to some, but when diggng a hole outdoors I see most if not all lining the holes with some type of barrier . Why do this ? Wouldn't it make the dug hole more susceptible to drying out? Why not just dig the hole and fill it with your preferred soil mix?

I think it might be used to keep slugs and the like at bay. I'm down here in NW Florida, and we don't have the same bug problems as you NE guys.

I grow in the ground, just adding a few cups of fertilizer and a few gallons {1-15} of my soil mix. I try to get my holes at least 32" wide and 24" deep, or about 85 gallons. Some of the patches will be Darwin Patches. Survival of the dankest! I'll put them out, then check on them about once a month until nearer time for sexing.

Thank you for the reply Larry.

Here is a coupke pics of my base soil along with a makeshift temporary greenhouse using a small trailer. I'm waiting for some seeds to show up but I was lucky enough to somehow get some seeds from some real nice herb so I started germinating them.

Not sure what the herb is but out of alot of it I got 4 seeds ? (2 were real iffy) .Here is a pic of the last few buds.. Maybe someone could shine some light on what type it could be ?

Good looking soil.

I wouldn't start too many seeds this early. {assuming you can not veg them inside under light} I'm a lot further south, and I'm having early flower problems. I wish I had waited three or four more weeks before I started popping. But then I put my first seeds in soil the last of February.

Only started a few, I can't really veg to many at the moment. I do think I started them few to early though. It has been a long while so I admit I'm a bit anxious. The primitive trailer greenhouse is for the veggies though, not the smokey..

Got home and there was a lil surprise on the soil mound. Gotta love me bro !

Also have a few ladies that popped through the soil. I know I'm a bit early so the ladies will be outside all day and then brought in and put under some light. << these are bag seed so they will end up in the in the new trial spots to see how things go.

Hey man I'm a little south of you and I wait until mid May to plant outdoors.You might experience early flower then reveg which will slow you down on veg time.You might want to mix up your soil and add to your hole and wait on planting.As for additions of blood or bone meal critters love that shit and will dig up your plants.Just my 2 cents.Good luck!!!

Thanks for the tip, I did not know that.. And I do have quite a few critters, deer mostly and rabbits, moles etc..
