Outdoor Maria's Spring Madness: SS Jack 47, Mandarin XL, Dark Devil, FB Green Crack, G14, C-4, DP AutoMazar

Ah.. sounds like you've got a completely different set of enemies over there so my tips probably don't apply. Tell ya what tho, I'd much rather have rabbits than cobras! [emoji23][emoji51]

Sounds like it couldn't be easier.. unless you get a plague of locusts of something!

Hmmm... bunnies are cute, but they eat your plants!
My cobras (and bamboo vipers, and rat snakes, etc.) are bad ass, but pure carnivores!
Hahahahahahaha!!!!!

Crickets / grasshoppers, plenty of them. And giant snails.

The biggest danger is the weather. Can get some massive downpours.
Even apart from the tropical monsoons, sometimes just random 100mm = 4" in an hr.
That kind of stuff.

It's all good. Perfect weather right now.
Sun is shining, babies are smiling!

Day 2 - The Auto Grow

All eight little babies. This is under the morning sun, but they live in the tent under Mars 192 for now.

Love and hugs,

Ya see.. I've never heard of anyone dying from a wabbit bite tho Maria.. unless it was a big f@ck off sabre-toothed wabbit with wabies, they're usually pretty safe to be around! [emoji2]

Snails are a bastard tho.. do you have slug pellets where you are? I know they're banned in some countries, if you can't get them you can make slug/snail traps with an empty jar or maybe a bucket for a giant snail; and some beer. Snails love beer apparently.
I never knew we had so much in common. [emoji6]

How big are giant snails? Sounds like a fearsome creature hehe. Actually, I saw a picture on Facebook and wondered if it was real...it looked like it could eat a plant in one bite!

 

[Exotic Flower]

@Vlad The Inhaler and @Jraven -- how big are the snails?
Their shells are about as big as a computer mouse, for reference.

I think the holes may be the local badger weasel critter thing.
I spooked one of them yesterday evening, and it let out a screech!! haha.

I'm letting go natural for a bit. See how they handle local conditions.

Day 4 - Autos

Here they are this morning:

Should be, from left to right, top to bottom:
1. FB C4, 2. FB G14, 3. FB Green Crack
4. MC Blue Amnesia, 5. DP Mazar
6. SS Cream Mandarin XL, 7. SS Dark Devil, 8. SS Jack 47

Unless I have the photo back to front, then it's the reverse order, haha!

I started soaking my scorpion chilis the other night, 20 seeds.
Prepped up 5 smallish pots for them, will do 4 seeds / pot and cull weak ones.

Love and hugs,
MJS

I realized that my Mars Reflector 192 was still on both "grow" and "blooms" switches, 400W+.
Maybe a bit much for the little seedling babies. So, went back to just "grow", about 200W blue/white.
Will give them just a week like this, then the full 400W is back on them.

My "edit" for posts isn't working these days, so just have to write new posts.

 

[G.Leave]

Looking good so far maria!! Good luck! Snails the size of a computer mouse...shaking in my boots!!

Last night the Dark Devil was lying down, some kind of wilting.
Supported it side to side with two sticks, not a regular post support.
This morning still worry, but supported.
Out of town today and most of tomorrow.
See what it's like when I'm back.
Errrrrr..........
Here's hoping she'll pull herself together.
