ye no matter how people seem online there is always some reason for suspicion. a burn sounds great eventually.

anywho darwin i think you should try and figure out someway to figure out the sex of ur plants before planting if that is even an option for you. but a a hundred plus plants is a fuckload of work if only half are fems. dont get 2 attached to them either cause lots can happen in the great outdoors.

im trying to sex a decent amount of my plants this year before tranplanting in mid to late may so i know some sort of flowers will come from some. im trying to have atleast 25 fems still around by harvest. im planning on poppin 60 seeds or so. havent got into clones yet maybe next year if this summer goes right.
but as B.E. Smith puts it...the best medicine comes from seed. so ill take his word for it.

I am in the NW lower. I will be growing Afghan Kush ryder and Automatic AK47. I plan on using 2-3 gal pots and fox farm soil and nutes. germing the seeds on 420 and will put them outside in a cold frame after veging for 2 weeks inside. hopefully all goes well can I can harvest the end of june. I will also be growing some califonia hash plant and himalaya gold from greenhouse seeds. I havent made plans yet as to when i will be starting them but i am thinking begining of june.

Yim
Ya thats all I need is to be havin coffee and step out to burn one only to hear "You have the right,You know the rest" That would just ruin the buzz and really suck ass

 

[Green Dave]

Do you guys think that it will get easier to get a card the longer the law is in effect?
From what I hear its getting easier in Cal.

Don't mean to bust your bubble but in no way are you going to have a harvest in June. you have to many hours of day light that time of the year. Your automatic might be near that but I bet it is later as well you won't see a harvest till Mid Sept./ Oct 1 on the other You are going by what the breeeder says on days to maturity but that is under 12/12 lighting.

soak seeds in PHed water 6.4 or there about for between 8 and 12 hours then fold up a couple paper towels soak them wet not dripping ,put your seeds in the paper towel fold A couple times put that on a plate put a nother plate maybe a little smaller over that will look like this () put that in a warm 75-85* F dark place and in 1-3 days you will have cracked seeds . When the tail is about 1/4" long trance plant w/ sprout up
Good Luck and Happy growing

Farmers alminac says we are going to have a Hot Dry summer. Dont know if that is better then the rain last year at least I didnt have to water to much

Hey guys, I just found this site which gives detailed reports of the soil in all Michigan Counties from the Dept. of Agriculture. Very informative. http://soils.usda.gov/survey/online_surveys/michigan/

 

[Pothead32]

Suposta be around 70 degrees my way this Friday. I plan on going and checking out some spots I found on Google Earth to see how they look from the ground.
On a different note, what's up Michigan growers, we are letting this tread go to waste and along with it alot of valuable info we could be sharing with each other regarding growing in the state we share. This forum RIU and the internet are a blessing to growers! Let's utilize it!!!!

My plans for 2010: Not get my plants ripped!

Last year I started my grow under an assorment of CFLs, which for early veagetative growth turned out to be a great idea! The ladies were a variety of BC seeds including but not limiting to: Purps, Ice, NL, NLxHaze and BC Mango( my personal favorite strain out there.)
i would personaly agree with that dude who was telling ya'll not to plant outside until after June. This is wise, as plants I have started as early as May without sexing(I never sex indoors) have an extremley higher percentage of Males:Females as opposed to this last year; where I didn't transplant outdoors until July 3rd and my ratio was 3:15

So this year my plans are the same, veg under my trusty CFLs, which have been waiting ever so eagarly to veg me some BC bud. Start date for Veg is "whenever I get around to it" lol, followed by 2ft/2ft holes filled with a personal mix of all organic soil, two twisted ankles from the miles of hiking all that shit out there and a watering scheduel of "I hope it rains because my shocks are bad!" K.I.S(Keep it stokee) ~~~ the dude

i grow indoors but im in michigan too so i had to post somethin in here... good luck everyone.

hey feva, i hope you bomb a spot near me lol

 

[svchop889]

hey mich. been vegging 8 inside since Feb 20th. going to be sexing them soon. back to veg until may then outside to boom and bloom. running under 200w cfl at the moment. doing it all organic, going into 2'x3' holes. high hopes for some big yields just doing bag seed though so we will see.

You have to love Mi, not really sure of the best time to start my plants in Michigan so I will be starting some in May, June, then end of June. I have germinated indoors and will go with only indicas/sativa(80/20) high breeds, mostly indica due to our short summer I think i'll have better luck with them. Getting really excited to hike to butt fuck nowhere. I do have 100+ bag seeds I am germinating and going to plant in larger plots than my clones/known genitics, hopeing that I get lucky and 20 of the hundred survive, are female, and sensi.
