Outdoor show an tell 2025

Solid genetics lineup you're running there - that NL#5 is a classic for good reason. Smart move transitioning from fabric pots to ground planting for outdoor in Maine. Those fabric pots can be a pain with wind and watering needs. For cold frame hardening, watch your temp differential and humidity levels closely. Running multiple generations for local adaptation is legit breeding work - you should see noticeable terroir expression by F3-F4. Keep documenting those Pine Tar Kush traits!

Yeah I'm gonna hope for the best, but it's an auto right at its flip/stretch point so I don't think she has time to put on more veggitation, but that think stalk feeding just one or two flower sites might turn out super dank. There's a cage to put up to protect incoming sisters
 
I've got three autos germinated rn. And I'm going to do three photoperiod too. I always think about 4/20 as called that because it's the date you need to get going on your grow if you're doing it outdoors in the Northeast. I know it's not true, but it's a good reminder. Happy 420 everyone.
 
Here’s my update, things are looking good. Photos are growing very nice they will be going in the ground in probably three weeks or so. My first run of Autos are Ok, they are all in bud. I am going to start a few more autos shortly, these will go in 5 gallon bags and go outside. The three on the floor I dam near killed from over watering, but they are coming back around.IMG_0161.jpeg

Still cold here in MI, few days during the week are nice but mostly pretty cold. I plan on popping my seeds in the next couple of days and keeping them inside until Memorial Day weekend.

So far I plan on running mostly seeds from Greenhouse seeds. I had looked at these last seasons but opted to go with something different that turned to hell! Hopefully these will do well in my climate. I do feel like I need to add a NL to my grow this season, I have never grown a NL outdoor, seems sacrilegious not to have right?. NL #5?

Greenhouse Seeds
Lost Pearl IBL
The Church
AMS

Has anyone run these from Greenhouse?
 
My outdoor starts.
Had an issue with nute burn on these starts (mixed FF OF with some pre used coir at about 50%) - up potted into half filled 1gal grow bags, mixed with the same mix at 1/4 ff to coir, and they seem to be healing up and growing with some vigor.

Shooting for a late may transplant.

I hope all this rain in Maine isn’t a sign of how the summer is going to go. I had planned on putting a few in the ground today, but it looks like I’ll be holding off for a couple days. My garden space needs to dry out a bit, was standing water yesterday.
 
Mid-May here in coastal Maine and the seedlings have finally made the transition from their indoor safe-space to the great wild outdoors. So far so good--they're loving the sun, and this morning they all got a nice drink of compost tea. Going to try more teas this year, been using alfalfa meal and a little molasses to get that microbiology going good. Need to start a worm bin so I can have ample worm castings--I think this is the year (should've been one of my winter projects).

This is just the MJ, keeping them separate from all the hemp plants:

Anybody get a look at the full moon earlier this week? "The Flower Moon" they call it in May, was something to behold the other evening (and I saw it set at dawn too, equally impressive).

I swear a night later I was outside late, the moon was high and incredibly bright, and the birds in the woods were singing like it was day. I kid you not. Don't think I've ever heard that before! Pretty surreal.

Hope everyone's having a good spring. We got a good shot of rain last week so things are looking good (brook is running strong). Hoping for some fine summer weather this year but have a feeling it might get awfully hot and dry. Knock on wood....

Here’s some pictures of the ones I put out this week. The droopy one is looking better than a couple days ago. I think she’ll make it. The buds are some autos I grew they are inside. Oreoz, Journey, Sour Gorilla and Berry Bomb.

Is there a doctor in the house?

Some leaves on some of the hemp seedlings are partially turning white, not sure exactly what's going on. Don't think I've seen this before.

Guesses:

  1. "Sunburn" from moving them outside into full sun too quickly without hardening off sufficiently (I would think "sunburn" would affect the entire leaf, not just parts of it, but not sure I've seen it before). They've been outside a solid week now, with some full sun most of the day on several days.


  2. Root burn from alfalfa meal tea that's too strong--I added a handful (for me that's roughly 3/4 cup) of alfalfa meal to 4 gallons of aerated compost tea, which also had about a cup of finished compost in it, plus 2 tablespoons of molasses and a pinch of humic acid. This whitening appeared after they got their first dose of compost tea (although that could be coincidence), I'm not sure exactly what the time lag was between the tea and the white, maybe a few days. I figured at this stage the seedlings were big enough to handle a low-moderate strength alfalfa meal tea, but maybe I misjudged. I know you have to pretty careful with alfalfa.

  3. Something else?

The new growth looks fine, hopefully this is just a brief little glitch that they'll overcome. It's just some of the hemp plants. I gave them some more plain water today (actually, it had a little potassium silicate and epsom salts dissolved into it for K and magnesium), maybe I should hold off on any more alfalfa meal until they recover.

Thanks for any opinions or experience with this.
