when i get my GG harvest i plan on drying in a wheelee bin. watcha think bout that?

im cleaning it out at the min, gona wash it out so its clean and odourless, then hang up fishing line inside, should give my budz a nice drying place, as my parents dont want the smell indoors :/

I dont kno dr commie how are you gonna have circulation in there without cutting holes in it and then if you cut in it you take the risk of something getting in there and eating it or something! i really wouldnt advise drying outside i just wouldnt take risk of the crop being ruined after all the that waiting!

Hey ben it all depends on the conditions your drying in!All the buds i have dried were dry within 2-3days but they dried to quick my drying area was to warm and even with curing the taste wasnt there! so id suggest a good 5-7 day dry in cool area with good air circulation !

Theres very little veg state with lowryder so if you can id start them inside in about a week or two and let the get let them get strong enough then transplant when the wether gets better thats just going on what i read ive no experience with outdoor growing so hopefully some of the outdoor lads will be able to give more accurate info!

right, i grew a pair of fem LR2's outside, the smoke was bomb. basically, start them under a light for around 3 weeks... they start showing sex at around 3 weeks. then plant em outdoors and let em do their thing. they need very little care to be honest. oh, and the slugs LOVE them so put some salt around em. i used compost from aldi or lidl (cant remember) one 40L bag was €3.50. 20L pots, and stuck the pots into the ground fully. dug em in (basically cause i didnt wana damage the roots while takin em out. i suggest u start in 1/2L pots wait till the roots show at the bottom of the pots, then transplant em straight into the ground outside. good luck man.
