Right on, I'm still debating on strains but I like the raised bed idea but sun would be an issue Im not sure I have good enough spot where the sun hits it most of the day except right out front.

Definitely you want as much sunshine as possible. My raised beds are a foot high not sure how wide but they work awesome especially with the weed barrier at the bottom. Too bad you don't get sun in the back yard. It is a godsend for me.

 

[Cannadian420]

Yeah, it's tough. I had to move them in the morning and then again in the afternoon last year.

Well, what ya know, stumbled across some local growers (within a few hundred miles lol)

The 1st year I grew, I grew 4 different Bomb Seed strains that did really well. Made my organic soil, put about 15 gallons in a dug hole and put the plants in. 11 plants yielded me about 4lbs.

As for when to put them out, depends a lot on the weather in your area. Here, near Windsor, NS,
‘Hard’ frosts are typically over by May 1st, so any plant 6-8wks old can be out by then. A few light frosts will not bother a healthy strong plant.

My outdoor girls will likely be started in the next 2 wks

Welcome to the group. Awesome info, I'll be starting as soon as I get some seeds. I'm thinking I'll get them up to the 7 gal pots I have and then in to a 15 - 20 gal pots for the outdoors.

With the increase you should get a better yield no doubt in my mind.

Nice to see someone close The Celt I am in Colchester county so not too far off Windsor

Hey @Robbieg22, I lived for many years in Truro (25+/-) and worked on the 104 twinning back in the 90s. I know Col, Cum and Pictou Co very well lol

One of my boys still lives in Truro and my mother moved back there a few years ago.

 

[Cannadian420]

We kind of died off there haha. Anything happening guys? I finally ordered seeds should be here any day ordered gorilla glue x zkittlez regular and purple kush fem. Once they arrive it's go time! Even though it seems like this damn winter is never going to end.

Buddy of mine from Weymouth gave me a plant last year, 1 of the 5 seed he had left. I told him I would do my best to clone it and self it.

I grew the plant out, had one clone take and now the clone is in the seed tent throwing her own spunk around lol

The plant he gave me was a nuisance to grow for some reason but the clone is doing amazing and the bud from the mother is awesome.

Awesome. I'm hoping for a male out of the regular seeds.

 

[Robbieg22]

I got my seeds in was thinking about starting an Expert Gorilla auto just to see how it will grow in side and I am kind of bored haha. Can’t wait to start this season

 

[Cannadian420]

I hear ya. I miss it. I would have started another indoor run but I don't have the room for both grows overlapping nor do i need the product really but I still think everyday about poppin a couple

 

[Cannadian420]

[The Celt]

Never enough thought

Hi all, I have been growing since 2004 of and on. I grew for about 4 years indoors. The last two years I am growing outside. Last years crop netted me about 23 oz a plant. (white widow, Do-si-doos). I grow in self watering buckets (5 gal). I trick them into flowering around the 2nd or 3rd week of July. I also put them on a Ski-do trailer, when there is a chance of frost I move them into my garage. Where do you buy your seeds? What are you planting? I am from Cape Breton.
