Growing outdoors from seed in high desert Southern New Mexico

[poozgrowz]

Heck i drag my pots or i use a hand truck. I have 15gal plastic nursery pots and i don't "lift" i drag. If you let them dry out prior to moving them when needed it's of course much lighter. I did get a 10gal fabric pot last year but i'm just stubborn and still use these pots.

My gosh @Galgrows
you do grow epic-ness
Thank you for the tips!
Drag dem Queens!!!
I'm so stubborn I'm trying to lift & too impatient to wait for help.
I'm scared to rip the bottoms of these fabric pots.
But, I've let a 7gal bag dry out enough they move easy.
It's getting into 90's for the next wk & half
So it won't be hard work. My plants are very thirsty in these bags. 1st x to grow in fabric.
I don't think I'm watering enough. Learning thru changes each year! Ack! Lol.

2 people and a shovel handle.

That makes for sninked nap breaks.
Sinked? Please help me hahaha

I have some old tools. A small cool shovel, w/a long handle. Love it!
Your comment is something I remember from the 50's grandparents gardens I've seen quite a few old men & women lift heavy weight like that
TY.

This is my 1st x to grow LSD.
Ó how my mind wants to wander ..& tell stores of old haha

I'm in love with this plant.
I mean, seriously.
I have seen the best LST, scrog, sog .. ... techniques on this forum! And I see the potential for this strain..
I've had some fails from this cultivar,
but this 1 seed has changed my mind
I gotta learn how to go sideways north/South with LST.
the best ways to bend over and go sideways with LST.
I photo this girl so often. LoL
She wants more & has more potential
I desire to learn.
0ooo this IS addiction! LoL I've arrived

I'm excited over my very first 3 autos!
1 month to go Smelling pretty. Not many bugs, it's still early. Not much growing in the area yet
So far I'm finding Autos easy to grow.
Especially if you know nothing. But I'm growing outdoors. So I know nothin bout dat.

It's a good test growing early before the dry desert heat knocks all living things into the dust of choking windy survival!
Tomorrow I'll line all 3 up, n a row. Photo.
(I had a very high mother's day)
This is the end, my only friend. The end.
Lol the doors music. ;)

I'm sorry for the late reply but i freakin don't remember honestly i've raked my old brain thinking an thinking but i can't remember shit. I do know it's a indica heavy cross cause that's all i grow. I try and get them finished by Oct. cause of the fall rains here in Oregon.

I used to listen to the Doors but not so much anymore. Were getting nice temps during the day here in Oregon. Supposed to be 80f i'm taking my photos in&out during the day getting them use to the breeze and sunshine. I get very strong winds around my area so i tie them up to a bamboo pole. I won't set them out full time till around the 25th. I'm thinking of throwing a auto into the mix but i start them indoors get them strong enough to handle the weather here.

I am in the same pot ( heheh) as you but I struggle to move a fully watered 5 gallon pot. Really messed up back.
Anyways I missed this when I looked but my spider found it.

Believe me every year it gets worse. I'm slowly cutting back the plant count for outdoors. I use a hand truck and it's tricky to keep them on the thing i gotta bend down while i pull them around the yard. I'm edging towards 70yr old and have done manual laborious jobs all my working days besides having a big property in the past to tend to. That was back breaker days, reason i sold it.

I am getting one of those pot hand trucks. It's so cheap it's not even worth making one.
And I know cheap!

Oh @Galgrows I hear ya! I'm past the 1st part of 70's... And I'm losing strength & annoyed, ha. I used to throw around 50lb boxes of potters clay like it was 5lbs. Superwomans... Done got up & left us lol
We gotta slow down and know our boundaries. I'm Not having an easy time with that fact of life! Argh.

Yep, @Galgrows me too... Life reminds me of songs at times, tho.
Ohhh the 80 temps! Yum! :-) We get them strong winds also. I'm tired of the winds and no moisture.
I'm excited to see your photos this year
I think I won't top the Mexican sativa... But the rest are getting topped or LST. Hubby's making a dry room for me... I'm testing Mullen in it now LMBO
Please do an Auto. I can't wait to smoke some fresh in... Maybe 3 weeks. Slurp ;-)

This one is giving me fits on it's water needs. I stick my finger in and it is moist.. So I don't water, the next am it's totally wilted
I tried watering when the soil a finger depth felt dampish & still wilted the next day.
This one has me puzzled.
Usually I have the watering figured out by the time the growth is this far along.

The 1st CBD auto to grow.
How much amber should I be looking for? Is the % different for CBD?
I'm getting nervous about cutting too soon or too late.. plus I can't see very well lol
@grayoldnproud whatcha think?
I've 'heard' some say don't let it get much amber....
