This is my first grow,and I have been reading and studying like crazy through these forums.
I would love any feedback you may have and also any suggestions .
These were transplanted outside in first week of June..Hairs are forming now, and I am wondering if theres is anything I can do to help this process along in the flowering stage. I am using Magic Bloom for the flowering stage( generic brand from our area) and wonder if theres anything else I should be using instead.
Thanks in advance for ANY comments or suggestions ( good or bad) you could throw my way...for a newbie I gotta learn it all ... lol

when they first got set where they were... it wasnt planned on a permanent place...I only had certain time limits available back then to plan ( work took me away a lot then )...and it was last min decision to go at it this yr. they seemed to like location there but I was nervous about it.I tried to dig the soil up and check the ground but there used to be a gas station/garage on the old property about 20 yrs...motor oil/gas/ etc leaked in soil over yrs.better safe than sorry so left em in buckets..rather little less yield than motor oil killed babies.

yea ok .. I can understand that .. a +20 gallon pot/bucket next year will do wonders Im sure ..


and I guess your Magic Bloom will be just fine ..

tho if you have some black strap molesses sirup at home or can get it (its cheap) I would ..

will help your soils micro life and your buds .. a ts per gallon when you water .. delute it in a cup of boiling water fist then add it to a can/bottel ..

beside the sugar carps that help the micro life it also have a lot of trace elements in it .. like magnesium .. caluim .. phosphorous .. iron aso.

Thanks for comments, yeah bigger pots next yr for sure... and I have some molasses here so I will add next time to watering. thnks
There are only 4 plants Zubey... I dont want to push my luck with too many...just want a simple supply for myself nothing else...the money I save buying it all year will make up the difference :) None are in ground...just seems that way from the grass growing up around the pots ...I prefer that a bit to help hide the white bucket lol
Aloha Kid ... yeah another reason I chose this site as a temp... but it wound up being good location ..it was the battle with the bugs tho that was hardest... a lot more insects in this type area.. but well worth the battle I am hoping . ;)
To keep these girlies from getting any taller.. I am thinking of tying a brick to the top colas and bending them down ..I hear during flowering they can double in size..and that would have me a little nervous they almost 4 feet tall now ... With a guess ball park figure ...how much you figure these plants will grow for me ( in final weight ..buds ) .. I know its too early to tell ..but doesnt hurt to play guessing game..when its all done I will report back final tally. :)
