Hey farmers,
I only do one soil grow and it is my outdoor attempt each year. I always get the girls to finish but I would like to do better. I am a hydro grower (undercurrent) and always look at soil as more complicated and harder to manage (at least for this grower).
I can have 10 mature (in flower) plants and I was going for 4 outside and 6 inside. Reason being is myself and my veteran (PTSD) family member are depended on the medicine and I can't afford the risk of putting the whole 10 plants outside due to the potential for crop loss or theft.
I want to get the most out of my 4 outside plants though because the Summer is my one chance to grow a surplus to help prevent running out between cycles. I am only 3 years into the growing process and still refining my grower skill.
Ok so I have 8 plant in veg under the following conditions:
7 gallon fabric grow bags
soil: Happy Frog
Nutes: Jacks Hydro Pro 3-2-1 (this is just what I have and commercial growers use it on soil crops as well as hydro but quite willing to change to another brand/type)
Strain: Cheese Quake X Cheese Quake (F2) from seed (sorted by the most vigorous plants out of the 12 started).
Plants are currently growing very nicely and are about 12-14" high.
We have a relatively short season here in the Pacific NW but never had a problem finishing even if I have to haul em in the garage to finish under HPS or LED.
So, I am looking for expert guidance (pot size, nutes, whatever) to get the most out of this years attempt, I am open to suggestions and will be happy to take advice. I have been doing this long enough to know I don't know everything. Have farmed food crops, raised a lot of different greenhouse crops so I have a lot of general horticulture knowledge but I find growing cannabis to be a different animal:)
Thanks in Advance,
Dee
