Hi gilfman, intrestin stuff I wanna do something out doors this year, maybe one or two plants as a tester lol. Good luck mate rep+
yeah man u should outdoors is the shit... i would try some indoors but its not possible for me right now .. but like t5 and CFL if i did to start out... (and not alot of base money after buying seeds, fertilizer, soil, and other little things) .. i bought a 21'' t8 for 15 bucks thought that was pretty good tho... hope you stay subscribed to my grow .. would enjoy hearing what you have to say :bigjoint:

Ok i am thinking about using a line of Advanced Nutrients products ... Iguana Juice Grow, Voodoo Juice, Bud Blood, Big Bud, Final Phase, Carboload, and Overdrive,,

Any comments or recommendations are welcomed ... I would like to hear if anyone has used these products and what kind of results they had.

Hi Gilf...........

Thanks for responding in my thread!

What happened with the deer last year and how are you gonna "manage them" this year?
We have so many deer where I live that the city hires hunters/sharpshooters and they wack anywhere from 400 to 600 per year. The "deer-meets-car-grill" ratio is outta site here. Yea, pretty wild but the deer are processed and it goes to the needy in the county. There is no waste.
Hence, what happened last year and your "managing them" in 09?

true, im not sure, it still will produce bud, but i dont want to produce seeds or to cause the other females to stop focusing on thc and go to seeds. So maybe ill move it or take the females in side and just set up a few cfls. :bigjoint:

yeah man i'd take the hermie inside so the females can get the sun.. u might be able to snip the pollen sacs off before they open .. but it would have to be a daily thing

the ground is like a larger pot with better moisture control and space for ample room for larger root system and easier to maintain... and it's not completely obvious that it's not naturally there haha
great point. I guess my concern about how many pots I should buy has been resolved :grin:
So how should I compensate for my own potting soil (organic) being thrown into the ground?

70/30%? 50/50%?

yo men did you buy feminized seeds from lowryder#2!? and you plan to grow them outdoors?!
nope just normal seeds .. then im letting the males pollinate the females for more seeds .. i may try to save the pollen to use on my Ww wr and AI ... for future growing.. but yes they will be outdoors and ill try to get 2 harvests .. one for seeds and then a outdoor SoG LR2 style all females for budd ..

True, true. Ok cool I think I have a general idea on what I should do. Appreciate all the help, but I got one more quick question. I went and bought the Arjan's Ultra Haze #1 and I heard that I could have trouble even FLOWERING outdoors in the Northern Hemisphere. Any opinions? I know I can flower them, but I heard they finish early. I don't know I'll just pray for the best.

that strain will do anything BUT finish early since im pretty sure it's almost pure sativa ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7frJFvSfbk this video may help .. says 13 week flowering... it wouldnt make it where i am .. it can grow in the NH depending how for weather is

Ok yea I've watched that video a BUNCH. What I'm sort of asking is, i'm not worried about the weather so much, but the fact that it says it's ready to harvest in November.

If I just started seedlings in middle March and transplanted them in late April, I think I should be ok to harvest buds in October. Or do you think they'll be immature?

I'm looking at my calender, 13 weeks of flowering ontop of say 2 months of vegetative = 5.2 months roughly. April - September is 5 months and even if they were slow to start in seedling stage, it could be like October. I don't sense a problem for this, but our frost starts around early-mid October.

Think I'm good?

ehh man idk ... early to mid october is like 9-10 weeks right? you wouldnt get the full effect of your smoke or maybe not the desired flavor .. but you would have bud ... I would go more for indica .. like the alaskan ice i have is suppose to be 9 weeks and that pushing it for me
