First Grow

You should give them some superthrive it might help

super thrive is the shit!

Can I get that stuff from Home Depot or Lowes?

yeah u can get superthrive some lowes.... walmart and homedepot. Just be careful with it tho, it can turn your plants hermie if you use to much.

Most plants will show some droppyness after transplanting. They should be fine in a couple days tho.

Did you transplant all 4?

looking back at your jounal, me and you started are grows on the same day = 0

looks like we have a little competition = )

how are they looking now man?

I Finally got some new pics today and the plants are looking a whole lot better, I guess they were just in shock for a day or so after transplanting. These pics were taken exactly a week after the previous pictures I posted. Check out how much they have grown.

I still might get some superthrive next time I stop in at the store.

To answer your question jackinthebox, yes I did plant all four as you can see in the pictures.

I love this outdoor growing. I haven't had to water my plants yet we have just started to get some good rain.

I think that one lone plant that is small is finally starting to actually grow. Before I put it in the ground it seems like it was gonna die.

i think u might need to space your plants out a little more .. i've heard 3 feet apart for best root system and plants wont choke one another out ...

yeah I was just about to say that. They are to close, when they get bigger not only will they fight for nutrients, but also for light.

I would space them out a bit more if possible.

Other then that though they look good man, taller then mine, but im trying to keep my short. I think im going to fim mine in a week or two to keep it small.

You trying to keep yours short or does it matter?

Also, not sure if you did it just for the picture but, I would cover your soil up so it dosnt look so obvious that its dug up. Put leaves and sticks over the soil to help disguise it, as well as help keep the moisture in the soil from being evaporated by the sun.

hummm you have 4 plants..... I have 4 plants.... looks like we do have a competition ; )

one more thing, just in case. Dont use pine needles to cover up your soil though, it makes the ground very acidic and usually kills plants.

not sure if you have any pine trees nearby, but I thought just in case I better make sure you know that. Even though we are competing, I dont want your plants to die lol = )

yes people say plant near pine trees cause infrared heli cams .. but your plants usually die unless you have separate dirt from that of near the tree. I hope to get some pics up of my growing experience ..

Thanks for the tip guys, how long do you think it would be ok for me to leave them like this before I have to move them further apart? Do you think I could hold out until I can find out the sex?

Well they wouldnt really be a threat to each other for another month or two, but you have to realize that the longer you wait the more developed the root structure is going to be, and the harder it is goign to be to transplant.

I would transplant now, so that you dont have to worry about it. By the time the plants show sex, its goign to be a bitch to transplant.

yeah if your roots get all tangled your gonna wish you transplanted.. better safe than sorry ..

Ya thats true I don't have too much room ,but I will try to move a couple of them over about a foot if I can. Do you think that would be good enough? Because I am a little short on space because if I move them too much they will be shaded from the sun.

Jackinthebox, to answer your question earlier, yes I am actually going to try and keep my plants short and bushy rather than really tall and stretched out.

I read a forum on how to fim and it looks like the best way for my situation. Unless anyone else has any other suggestions.
