2023 Organic Outdoor cannabis grow journal

[CriticalWorm]

20 gal fabric pots
Reused organic soil from last year with a bag of compost and a bag of worm castings added. Only reamended soil with some blood meal and kelp I had. Top dressing with half the rear-ended strength Gaia Green all purpose and power bloom and rock phosphate watering with town tap water filtered with the odd dose of molasses in the water

A guy name piper carver tried growing outdoors. I think it was in Nova Scotia. He swears up and down that is not possible! LOL! So he became quite the accomplished indoor grower. I hope you prove him wrong! All the luck in the world to you! I’m out in Cali.

Here r my 2 outdoor grows. They're growing like the movie twins with Arnold and DeVito. The 1 plant(Arnold) is is a 25gal container over.7' tall and the DeVito is in ground maybe 2ft. Both were started from seeds at the same time, both are super silver haze and I water and fertilize the same for both. Only fertilizer I use on both are grass clippings tea, 1x per week. To give you an idea how tall the plants are, my daughter is 5'2".

I like to try to figure out where the best spots in the yard are and why.

Looking at your garden the plants near the house would get more water when it rains. Also close to the house will be drainage so you don't get floods in the house and the PH of the soil is likely different as well. It would be interesting if Arnold and Devito had switched places would they grow exactly like this year.

You probably have found a sweet spot in the yard which combined with good genetics would make you very happy indeed.

interesting observations. I think genetics are playing the biggest role in the growth diffs. When they were both inside in a tent, the Arnold took off while we were away for 2wk vaca, while DeVito barely grew. My friends who are more experienced growing say the DeVito plant will prob yield just as much as the Arnold. They say height doesn't equate to yield. Time will tell, as they both look like they are in the pre flowering stage.

There is no doubt genetics are huge.

It's also not just yield. People evaluate weed on effect, flavor, looks, etc. Some times runts turn into peoples favorites.

You are obviously enjoying growing. Carry on !

Nothing yet and I might be too late but what's the best way to prevent and protect against powdery mildew and mold? Thx
