Ok, so I'm thinking of attempting an outdoor guerilla grow. I've never grown outdoor, (or indoor) before. I have read a lot of information on this forum and other publications. P.S. This forum is the bomb -- lot of knowledge and experience here!! I have several questions and would greatly appreciate any advice. The current temps where I'm at (TN) are about 70 - 80 degrees... summers (mid June - Aug) are pretty hot 90-100 and humid. I have several safe locations that I think I'll be able to attend to periodically and harvest without detection.

1. What is the absolute latest that I need to plant the ladies outside?
2. Any strand advice? Newbie friendly? How long to harvest? How much product/plant?
3. Are "feminized" seeds legitimatlly all females? Or is just sexxing myself a better option?
4. Fertilizers? Soil fertilizers or mix fertilizers in with the water when I go to water?
5. Thinking of trying to get about 30 female seeds or approx. 50 reg. seeds (then sexxing). What would be an expected yield, I realize I'll probably lose some of the plants.
Great harvest? Mediocre harvest? Dissappointing harvest??
6. Any advice on not being decteted??
7. Advice on any other processes???

-- Thanks a lot

Heh, you may not get a whole lot of responses on this one. Despite your claim of having read a lot on this forum and other publications, you are basically seeking all the information you need to grow outdoors, from A to Z. (Most of the info you should already know if you had been reading a lot on this forum and other publications). It would take forever and be virtually impossible to answer such a laundry list of vague questions.

Not being rude, I'm just suggesting you may get better responses if you can narrow it down to one specific question, the answer to which you haven't found despite the time you've spent reading this forum and various publications.

All of your answers could be answered if you read the FAQ's, stickies, and journals. Good luck.

1. What is the absolute latest that I need to plant the ladies outside?I would guess at least 3 months before the winter solstice
2. Any strand advice? Newbie friendly? How long to harvest? How much product/plant? any plant will do honestly pck traits you want(Yield, size, potency , etc.)
3. Are "feminized" seeds legitimatlly all females? Or is just sexxing myself a better option?they are supposed to be, but I dont trust em. I think if I get 10 seeds i at least got 1 female so as long as I get one Im happy... fem seeds can go hermie or be straight up male LOL so eff that I would rather pay $20 less and perhaps end up with 9 or 10 females instead of 5 that are so called "guaranteed female"...
4. Fertilizers? Soil fertilizers or mix fertilizers in with the water when I go to water?missed me on that one ima hydro man Myself
5. Thinking of trying to get about 30 female seeds or approx. 50 reg. seeds (then sexxing). What would be an expected yield, I realize I'll probably lose some of the plants.
Great harvest? Mediocre harvest? Dissappointing harvest??LOL it only takes one seed to grow a plant LOL if you grew 50 plants then the yield is going to be great regardless quantity wise
6. Any advice on not being decteted?? Dont grow outside, honestly marijuana has a very high like reflective temp or something ... basically it means helicopters can spot 50 plants growing easily
7. Advice on any other processes???HYDRO BUBBLE BUCKET/ potted in a closet

not to come down on you but these questions are very vague and lets me know you havent done much research

bud can grow almost anywhere as long as you dont freeze or swelter

you haven't read shit.

and forget the guy talking about color temperature plants outdoor... he's talking nonsense. you want to know who sees the plants from the air?? a person.
they're trained to look for 'weed' looking plants, and then ask the pilot to go in closer. you don't have to be that much of an expert, just have good eye sight.

50 plants... in your dreaaams. try 3-5 max for your first try....

peace......

Thanks da07flopro and pablo for actually offering opinions and help on my questions. First off, I'm not stupid enough to plant 50 plants in rows together... I was planning on planting 4-6 plants spread out in 3-6 different (miles away) locations and working them with a partner. And just because I asked the questions doesn't mean that I haven't read anything. This is, after all, the "Newbie" forum, not the "Experienced Grower" forum. I've gotten answers to almost every question that I've asked before this thread, but it doesn't hurt to get other people's opinion and different perspectives before taking on something this risky. If you don't feel like putting your opinions up on the subject matter that I was looking for opinions on, then don't post anything. I put the questions up to get different unbiased opinions. Here's my opinions on the questions before I started this thread... maybe this is a better way to go about it.

1. My opinion was Early to Mid June optimally Right or Wrong?

2. I have read that Early Riser was a Newbie Friendly plant, resists mold well, yields good smoke as well Right or Wrong? Could there be any other mistake forgiving plants? // Outdoor Harvest time is somewhere around three months depending on strand Right or Wrong? // Outdoor Yields can be realistically 2-6 oz./plant Right or Wrong?

3. Don't know much about "feminized" seeds except what they claim... That's why I was asking, any opinions or experience with the matter would be nice

4. Seems everyone has different "formulas" for the soil, just looking for some opinions or experiences with outdoor nutes is all.

5. Was thinking if I bought 30 "feminized" seeds, I would probably be able to plant maybe 26... If I go undetected, I may be able to harvest 18 of them at 3 or 4 oz/plant... giving me a total of around 65-75 oz. Am I way off in the calculations?? // Great 85-100oz.// Mediocre 55-80oz // Disappointing less than 55oz.

6 & 7. Just anything subject matter related you feel like sharing.

Thanks

1. What is the absolute latest that I need to plant the ladies outside? The mid week of June. Anythting later would end up with the last few weeks of the flowering cycle hampered by chilly night temps
2. Any strand advice? Newbie friendly? How long to harvest? How much product/plant? Go to Nirvana's site and compare strains
3. Are "feminized" seeds legitimatlly all females? Or is just sexxing myself a better option? Not all but mostly female, males pop up sometimes. I think you'd have better odds.
4. Fertilizers? Soil fertilizers or mix fertilizers in with the water when I go to water? Coke or Pepsi??...This one is all about opinion.
5. Thinking of trying to get about 30 female seeds or approx. 50 reg. seeds (then sexxing). What would be an expected yield, I realize I'll probably lose some of the plants.
Great harvest? Mediocre harvest? Dissappointing harvest?? Your biting off way more than you should chew on a first grow. Prepare for a mediocre to disappointing result in relation to the attempt.
6. Any advice on not being decteted?? Grow less, use earth tone containers (no petty pink or trashy ho red), and avoid patterns. I've dug trenches close to 2 feet deep and lined the girls up in the trench. This reduces line of sight at ground level but you can't do shit about about the weed eaters flying over head specifically looking for green. Also, figure out how you're gonna move enough water and ferts to maintain dozens of plant and how you're gonna move the harvest when you done... without drawing attention.
7. Advice on any other processes???

Why you gotta be an asshole... imagine for instance a person grows 50 plants(Like the OP said) hidden in a corn field or some other vegetation the heat signature of marijuana is higher than the surrounding corn how else would you "spot" weed growing in crowded cornfields... but hey I could be wrong but i have heard of this and seen it on msnbc or CBS or something Marijuana inc. Look for it...just sayin I dont think Im talking nonsense
