Okay, yeah ive been using my own urine, I smoke a cigarette at the spot everytime I visit since I heard that wards off some animals, and I also have plastic chicken wire surrounding the delicate seedlings.

never heard of using urine, might have to look into it for future guerilla grows.

Yeah that is probably what is causing the light yellowing I see. the soil does look a bit saturated

is there any way I can make it less saturated? Today was a pretty hot day, so im assuming itll help. But its going to rain today, and tomorrow. Anything I can do?

Not really. You can try to break up some of the soil around the plants.(away from base and roots) to help it dry out faster. Other than that there is not much you can do. That is one thing that sucks about growing away from home. Can't really protect the babies when need be.

adding perlite or another medium that allows air to get in to surrounding soil works, in the future id put it towards the bottom of the spot where youre transplanting if you know youre going to have a rainy season, ive also heard of people sticking pvc pipes into the ground but dont know how effective itd be, maybe filling the pvc with perlite would help too.

UPDATE- sorry for the weird lighting, I took these pictures at night and had to use flash, so they look a little cartoonish also considering we just had rain, so the leaves were reflecting the light even more. But for the most part they seem to be doing better.

In the meantime, look at this lil baby, she was found in a bag of some random purple, just one seed. Looks good, not stretching at all, happy about this one, but it is a little late, but theres still a decent window for growth and maturity, from what I can see. Oh, and thats a inky cap, harmless from what I know, they can look cool if left to mature, but its killed every time the light goes on.

They seem to be doing better, one of the plants has grown at least an inch, and is working on its third node I believe, still very close from node to node.

And also, this spot has proven to be a very decent spot. It has an amazing view of the sun, and also have awesome cover.

Like I said, I would get you those updates! Here they are :D

Note how on the first pic, the bottom leaf is bent, its because the foliage around the plants was overcoming the plants and I guess it decided to take a different direction. I got rid of all that foliage
though, so were good for a little!
