OUTDOOR SOIL GROW
Strain = Gold Leaf (fem) in 2018 and Purple Haze (fem) in 2019
# of Plants = 6
Grow Type = Soil
Grow Stage = Bloom
Bucket Size = In the ground
Lights = Outdoor full sun (with 40% white shade cloth)
Nutrients = Sub-Cool Super Soil
Medium = Sub-Cool Super Soil
R O water = PPM = 8; PH = 6.5
Outdoor Temperature = 90 to 105+ with a couple of days at 113
Location = SoCal along the 34th parallel
Problem: One plant, in the northwest corner of my yard, always gets seeds. In 2018 I had put up black plastic tarps to shade plants from neighbors lights (only at night) but didn't discover seeds until harvest. Most of the seeds were in the one plant in NW corner (60-100 seeds from a 7' plant) with far fewer seeds in other plants that were farther away from this plant. Adjacent plants had 30-40 seeds and the plants adjacent to them had 10-15 seeds.
In 2019 I didn't use the tarps at all because I fimmed the tops to keep them below the fence line. As a precaution, I decided to use the shade cloth overhead because of the high heat, even though everything I could find about these strains says outdoor heat is OK. This resulted in only about 25 seeds in this one plant compared to the year before. Adjacent plants had about 15 seeds and the farthest ones only had 5 seeds. Any ideas?
I could send pics of yard/grow area and such, if you think you need them. Thank you all in advance as I truly appreciate all help I can get from outdoor growers.
