2 Outdoor Plants Journal

[Caligrown9]

So it been years since ive grown and when I did it was indoor when I was in high school . So I decided to try again when I found a guy selling seedlings that were feminized seed. So it all started from there , the bigger plant is blue dream and the smaller one is gelato (idk if you can tell in pics ) when I got them they were about a month old in a red solo cup. So I transplanted them into 10 gallon pots (reason being that I wasn’t sure when they would flower and dint wanna have to transplant in flower ) i started late I put them out side June 22nd . Just the other day I got my tds and ph meters , and tomato cage . I have maxibloom but haven’t really used it for the fact that I did put one tsp into a gal and my ppm run off was at like 3600 so I just been giving them distilled water till ppm drops down . Any tips or tricks would be much appreciated

That’s where I am now , before I dint think I was going to do a journal so I dint take many pics or write info down but now I’ll try my best to keep you guys updated

Do you guys think these light will effect the plants flowering ?

 

[Caligrown9]

There’s a street and stores behind my house that have lights all lights are at least 30-35 yards .

Do you guys think these light will effect the plants flowering ?

Probably not-a full moon doesn't affect them,so chances are a few distant lights won't either.
It's one of those things you probably have to just go with,not much you can do except
move them somewhere where the light doesn't reach,but I really don't think they'll cause problems.

What do you guy recommend on me giving water 10 gal pot
Should I water each one with a gallon and water less or give half gallon to both and water more ?

Water them till runoff, then let them almost dry out. I water by weight of the pot. You can't go by any schedule. You have to let the plant tell you what it needs. I flush with full strength nutes once a week, and if they need more water in between, they only get it if the pot gets light.

Are you growing in a soil, or Coco and perlite?

I’m using happy frog soil

That’s what I been doing which is about a gallon each . I just dint know if more water were better but okay thanks brotha

You always want to water till you see run off. Watering improperly will result in problems, nutrient lockout, watering over/under issues I.e.

Good job on making a journal! You will be amazed with the help that flocks your way!!

Like carcass said, those lights shouldn’t be a problem, but you can always build a temporary wall to have on one side of the plants blocking the lights, and/or get some taller plants that you can make a wall out of.

I’ll be sure to follow along

For my 5 gallon pots I usually give about 1.5 gallons of water when feeding them.

Hell yea sounds good and thanks you guys have all been Koo I haven’t got a asshole on here yet lol
And so do u water more when feeding ?

 

[Sparkey224]

I'm in promix or roots organic and when the plant smelling loud in Veg or flower the soil is almost dry but usually wait till I see the leaves drop a bit until waters/ feedings. Great journal and good luck bro

I buy crystal geyser gallon spring water and bubble my nutrients with an aquarium pump for 36 hours at least before feedings usually around 6.5ph. I'm using botanicare nutrients and earth juice and give them a separate watering occasionally. But waiting until the soil is dry is the most important to have happy plants and bigger yields. imo..hope this helps I'm pretty medicated..cheers bro

What do u guys think too much training or is this good . I’ve only done it to one plant lmk what you guys think and if I should do it to my other one

That should be fine. See how she reacts to it. There’s many ways to skin a cat they say. No right or wrong way. Just different techniques.

With the nutrients I use, I give them nutrients every time a water. So essentially, a feeding is a watering, I guess it’s just what ever term I use at that moment lol.

This is where you will get a feel for your ladies. After a feeding, pick your pot up, feel how heavy it is. Three or four days later or how ever many, you check the soil, the top looks dry, stick your finger in the soil, an inch or two down, check to see if it’s dry. Pick the pot up, it’ll probably be pretty light. That’s when you know they’re ready for a feeding. It’s up to you to figure out a good wet/dry cycle, we’re just here to direct you in the right direction

Your plants looking good man!!
