Going to make some auto flower seeds

Just use MegaCrop. It's simple. As I said when in the military, "It's sailor-proof!"

I might use it again some day.........................Just had an idea. I'm gonna give my MC to my neighbor and let him use it on his spring grow with the seeds I'm gonna try and make for him.

Yes - Look for strains that are being breed in your area. They will be selected to handle such an environment. That is what I am doing mostly. Looking for strains that were selected in the PNW region.

Only problem here is with it being illegal, smart growers don’t talk about it. No local community of growers. The one grower I used to know about 10+ years ago finally got busted, had greenhouses full of plants, did his time and then relocated, his two locally adapted strains disappeared with him.

Sorry to hear that.

Perhaps look into Canadian breeders, or from the PNW. Where they are highly resistant to mold. Short seasoned plants, and then you just have to breed with your plants that survive the bugs?

Look into companion planting. I used it quite a lot in my large food garden.

It sucks I know. I Wish I could grow long seasoned plants here but I cant. Just gotta work with your climate and find something that works for you in those genetics.

I had huge success with bacteria. There is one strain that caterpillars will die if they eat the plant, but safe for us. Down to earth RootZone is <3

Friend of mine told me to use cal mag to bring
It up to 160ppm I don’t know if he’s talking
Out his ass or not

Your water is extremely salt free coming out of the tap and nothing wrong with that. It’s practically RO water in quality. Mine comes out at 230ppm with a pH of 7.5. So you don’t have a lot of the calcium that is in many municipal tap water. I still wouldn’t add some just to get it to the level of crappy tap water. I would do as @RYCBAR has suggested and try some foliar and see if they respond before adding it to your growing medium.

Also when adding it to your nutes try to find one that is just cal/mag with any added nitrogen. I use MegaCrop and their CM does not have added nitrogen. Or you could go old school and try some Epsom salts if they start to look deficient.

There are plenty of tricks you can try when growing out in the open. My vegetable garden has fencing and electric pulse to try and keep the deer and groundhogs out. Plus it’s out in the open yard which makes the deer less likely to have a buffet and I can plant more of everything to try and share so to speak and still get veggies for me.

Yet, when grow cannabis in stealth, now the only safe place is behind my house just inside the wood line. Where the deer don’t mind grazing, hell I have had them lie down on a group of four foot tall plants, crushing them to the ground. One year a doe laid down and died in the middle of my vegging plants will I was out of town. By the time I discovered her, by the smell when I got home, you did not want anything to do with those plants. It’s always something outside, like last year I said let’s plant a bunch. 30 plants later and all summer trying to baby them thru what had to be the wettest summer in years I had very little to show for it. While inside my two tents keep producing one harvest after another.

It is what it is and until it becomes legal enough for me to grow in my front yard, I think I’m done. Although, I say that every winter and then May 31st comes, last chance for frost here, and I want to put some in the ground. :smoking:

Humidity, very damp summers, short growing season, and all the critters that come with living out in the country has destroyed my desire to grow here. I would need a duck foot strain that can hold its own umbrella while kicking back the damn deer and groundhogs. If you ever find a strain like that please let me know.

Australian Bastard Cannabis. Just need to do extensive breeding like they did with ruderalis which is autoflowers to stabilize it and make dank genetics. Some people have played with it, but not many that I know of have done so. ABC weed.
