Outdoor 2019 mid Michigan Growtogrow outside

[Jean-O]

Got down to at least 38 degrees at my place last night. That was what it was at 8:00am when my dog went outside and the fog was thick. All my autos are in my tent in my pole barn now except one. I built a structure over my 6'x6'x6' photo plant to protect it from thunderstorms in the forecast for the next 4 days. Then the weather is supposed to warm up for the next two weeks with highs in the 80's. My photo plant should be done at the end of two or three weeks. I sprayed it down with H2O2 before covering the structure with plastic sheeting. On the right side I hung a canvas tarp for the next four days.

Getting cool up there[emoji33]

The covering you made is a good thing for the weather.

But .. You may want to change to a clear plastic non UV protection. Or any clear. It will be better than what you have over her now.

Because the tarping that you have... I've used before in the same attempt to protect the plant from the wet.

But that tarp also blocks almost all UV rays and any sun light.

So it can promote PM and mold to grow more rapidly.
No UVA or B

This happen to my crop in 2017

Keep a close eye on your plant while it's covered.[emoji106][emoji482]

Sorry about that DJ...
The shippers should use more stealth when shipping those seeds.
Seedsman is good for shipping stealth and guaranteed delivery.

The blueberry cookies is good. Nice n buzzy pain relieving high.

All I grew in the first grow is outstanding weed[emoji106][emoji106]

I want to do it better next year[emoji482]

My friend hasn't got back with me yet[emoji55] on the Venom OG seeds?

I'll have to give him a call and maybe remind him.
He's going through liver cancer right now second time. he just had chemo like three or four weeks ago and his spirits are high but he sure don't look good. He had to have his stomach pumped 5 days before the end of August. They took 7 L of water out of his stomach he was telling me. he said he couldn't eat.[emoji55] it's really sad because a lot of the weed that he gets from me induces you to eat more so when he smokes he wants to eat and he can't. What a mess.

I feel for him all the time.
But he ain't got nobody to blame but himself this time.
He's a drinker and doc told him not to drink the last time he got his liver fixed from cancer.

Well then He started messing around with strippers about a year or so later. And so you know messing around with all those other things that come with strippers.
Well that's the way it goes anyways.Right on DJ [emoji482]
The timeline I think it's pretty important to follow the schedule that you lay out for your grow season. I didn't follow mine and fell off that two weeks and even though I had a good grow. And the outcome was awesome.
I'd would've had better control of it all and probably less problems with the powdery mildew if it would have been smaller plants. They were just so big. But that's not a bad thing really you know[emoji13][emoji12] but having control of it is what it's really all about to come up with that quality smoking flower cuz I kind of think growing cannabis is relatively easy it's growing quality cannabis is where it starts getting dicey and you really got to find the way of the plant a particular cookie-cutter way to grow all cannabis every plant seems to have an individual want and need for the most part it's broad but some plants some of these high-strength plant you got to 0 right in on them and watch them really close and like you and I and others that are on here have grown for a time we realized what plants we like to grow and what plants we don't like to grow LOL [emoji269]I've come across a lot of them I don't give two cares about ever growing again . LOL

Sorry this was ... I thought sent like 3 day's ago...But ??? [emoji13][emoji481][emoji482]

GTG, the girls are looking great mate. I love the name incredible bulk, hope she delivers on her name That's a good idea to cover them up in the wet. That was pretty cold 38c, not far from 32 (0c).

Yes, must keep in contact with him, in case someone else gets them. I am very sorry to hear about your friend. The Cannabis would help with his pain. I dont know your friend and feel for him. The Canna does make you hungry, but also good for pain. Its crazy, they have alcohol legal and not cannabis, it doesnt kill or give you cancer. I guess its hard for him to give up, hopefully he will after this latest cancer scare. True strippers carry stds and the likes, he got to live better booze and strippers isnt the way.

True this time trying different soil, organic type to get better product and hopefully better harvest. True, with the elements, least this drought will mean less rain about, and its not too difficult to get water to the site. I probably wont be growing Sour Daddy again it was a freebie. I try to research each strain to try, if I find one we like, i would like to grow more of it to keep up the stash.. lol true some you dont want to grow or try again. The street bush weed isnt myt favourite over the home grown. I dont even know the strain on the streets in Nimbin.

GtG I rolled a fat one and caught up on your thread tonight mate ....what a fantastic grow you've had buddy great stuff ....plenty of quality herb already in jars with a more to come by the looks of it mate .....so much useful information on how to overcome problems for any outdoor grower in your thread mate it's a credit to you . What's been the favorite smoke so far? I bet you're looking forward to putting the trim scissors away for the season soon fk I don't know how you guys trim so much herb

Thanks smokey I appreciate it brother

yeah my friend John he's a character that's for sure LOL.
He's just a simple guy pretty good friend. I've known about seven years now. but he is what he is that's for sure LoL
Going to miss him that's for sure when he gets ready to check out.
He's been messing with strippers since I've met him[emoji12]he hasn't been messing with them for the like the last year now I guess since this cancer reappeared.
I tell you that man come by here and tell me some wild stories lol nothing that I wouldn't expect from a guy who messes around with strippers damn ner daily [emoji106][emoji12]LoL...
Do you have a rain collection system with barrels or some way to contain your water?

Hey there TGB [emoji481]Good to see you[emoji482]

Thanks gro bro[emoji109][emoji482]

Yeah it was a pretty good grow it got out of control there for a hot minute but I managed it. it was hard...it took a lot of time that I'm not used to spending in the garden but it all paid off in the end.
I guess that just goes to show you that the more you put into it the more you're going to get out of it..it really does show that don't it.
Next year I got a better plan though LOL always fucking making plans bro LOL[emoji12][emoji375][emoji373] I'm thinking 2 cages next year one a little bit smaller than the other and making the big cage a little bit longer and maybe a couple feet wider and a little bit taller on the Northside.
But I'd like to grow 2 big crops next year outside I think I can.
I just got hash out the details of scheduling timeline and area that I'm going to grow in.

I was thinking[emoji362]last night[emoji12]
I was sitting out there smoking and contemplating next year's Garden area. And I thought possibly I grow two plants from Spring to just about normal harvesting time.
I could speed them up a little bit by starting to tarp them in July and start the flowering so they get like 4 weeks + on the natural sun light change Tarpon before the actual son changes them to flowering naturally around the 10th of August so I have a 4 week jump on it at least so that would make my plants finish 2 to 4 weeks earlier. So that gives more intense sunlight for the first 4 weeks of the flowering.
Which I believe wholeheartedly that creates a larger more intense bud danker and stronger.
It'll be a bit more work running 2 cages.
I was thinking about the plants that I'm going to run the longest.
I might grow those in a completely different way than what I normally grow outside like. I'll do a lot of extreme stress training holding the plants very close to the ground and spread them out over a large area so that all the bud sites will have sun.... every single one of them.

I I used to grow like that inside when I first started legal growing. But that's how I used to grow back in the day for stealth reasons in my Gorilla grows.

These pics are from some of my first legal grown plants. The one in the Big Blue tote is a Casey Jones.[emoji106][emoji106] I expect most of those are Casey Jones that you see. I haven't grown Casey Jones in about 5 years. it's hard to find the seeds. I let the clippings die out it's hard to hold on to all of them without a grafting tree to hold them all. That's coming next.[emoji106]
But this is the training technique
I want to use outside next year's grow with 2 plants.[emoji106]
