Outdoor Swans Fruity UK Outdoor Second Grow

UPDATE:

Nothing to report!

Man I'm impatient with this bit [emoji3]

On the plus side a few good days of sun and my garden crops have really had a nice growth spurt.

Think I'll build a little flat pack grow box this evening to kill some time. Bit of corrugated plastic, some double sided tape, a couple of fans and a CFL or two should do the job.

So I built them a little grow box for some cheeky sun down CFL action.

Simply fashioned out of some corrugated plastic, I added two fans

Bamboo canes for light hangers

And open with the amazing door mechanism!

Should do the job and all dismatles in a couple of mins in case the in-laws stay over and want to use the spare room!

Lime has shed her seed case and Love Potion is starting to show.
My strawberry plant doesn't look bad either.
Just waiting for Blueberry to show and we'll have a full house.

Hey Swan, fantastic journal, love the variety of strains in your grow, and your CFL Seedling Starter Box is brilliant, I built something very similar a few months back, using a very large storage container, with two fans (just like yours) and never actually got round to using it in the end.. lol.. but it was a fun project nonetheless.

I'm eager to follow along and see how these strains grow and develop outdoors in SE England, with the weather an all..as I'm in SW England, and am also considering popping a couple of seeds outdoors somewhere.. The exact location still requires some more careful planning, as it will need to be somewhere that cannot be stumbled upon..

Best of luck with your grow, looking forward to seeing a nice bloom phase, and following along for the sheer sense of excitement and adventure with your grow.

Hello my AFN Brothers and Sisters!
Welcome to Swans Fruity outdoor grow.

This will be my second grow and with 4 times the fun.

For anyone interested, last year I did a solitary RQS Royal Dwarf outdoors here in the south east UK. The journal link is below.

It was great fun and quite a ride. Dwarfy as she became known took everything that was thrown at her: bugs, crap UK weather, high winds, being snap by yours truly with some heavy handed LST and she was even dropped as a seedling and I had to scoop her back into the pot!

This year I'm going all fruit and trying 4 seeds:
Dutch Passion Auto Blueberry
Dutch Passion CBD Auto Compassion Lime
Barneys Farm Pineapple Express Auto
Flash Seeds Stitches Love Potion

I'm interested to try the fruity strains this time around and experience the grow characterisrics and the smoke of both Indica and Sativa plants, plus I'm super intrigued to see how a CBD strain is.

I'm using 10l fabric pots with an aim to keep plants small and I will be LST'ing and I may even jump into some topping action! I love being in the garden pruning and training all our other plants so why not these too.

This afternoon I mixed Plant Magic and Perlite in a 4:1 ratio and filled my pots ready to go.

Then this evening after returning home from a little family outing I put each seed into soak overnight and will tuck them up into the soil in the morning.

Superhero egg cups are optional!

Once they pop they'll start out on a sunny windowsill, possibly with some CFL goodness for a couple of hours each evening after sun down. Then after a few weeks I'll acclimatise them outdoors before setting them free in the wild (I mean onto the garden patio).

I'm also going to stick 3 of them into this year's outdoor grow comp and there were such cool vibes being in it last year

That's all for now.

Cheers
Swan
