Obviously, the following information is of little use to medical growers due to low yield. However, for someone looking for a method to obtain a full sunlight grow without fear of aerial detection, this method can yield small quantities of connoisseur-grade product.
I used Pro-mix HP amended with worm castings, bat guano, fossilized seabird guano, a bit of whatever random organic "complete" fertilizers I have lying around, and some Soil Moist for water retention in a 2 gallon cloth-type smart pot.
Started from a fully rooted blue widow cutting and placed outdoors on July 17th. About 5" tall.
Finished on September 12th, but I probably should have pulled it a few days ago as I would have preferred to retain some of the deep blue-green color that the plant was showing just last week. The plant could not be watered as frequently as I would have liked and that may be responsible for some of the color fade. About 2' tall when pulled.

It smells like somebody threw a skunk into the wood chipper.
