First Time Outdoor Grow.

not sure about walking you through . But heres a few gorilla tips . Get a short faster finishing strain . once you transplant in big pot or feild . plant at a 45 deg angle and start tying down with ripped up stockings . Thats my few tips cheers .

check out my thread tying down plants .

If there was ever a surefire indicator of what makes outdoor plants huge, is the size of the hole you dig for them

I tried guerrilla style once, planned to dig ten holes

the first hole was a cavern! but I had not learned to pace myself, so the second hole was a bit smaller, third hole smaller than that, and so on until the tenth hole was a real half-ass job I was so dog tired

I had unknowingly created an experiment, because sure enough the plant in the first hole was a 14 footer and the tenth hole plant only came up to my knees

loosen that dirt up!

I have a week old seedling in the ground. Somewhat of a cage, could really use some tips, I'll post a picture if yall are interested

my tip would be to aquire strong genetics that will finish in time for your season. Dig big holes my friend , check ph of soil and adjust.
Greensand , azomite and rock phos are your friends.......miracle grow is not!!!!!

Oh and very imporant
Make sure you have access to water. It sucks humping water in the middle of August!!!!
I speak from personal experience lol

I definitely do not use miracle grow. I have a mix of the natural soil(rich nutritious soil and some fox... Something soil) lots of deer, also afraid of ants

stake that wire down and use it to train your plant . Your soil should be good for 1mth so no real need for fert until then you could use a little root booster or a alfalfa tea check @jumping cactus thread have a 3 litre coke bottle with top and stickers removed in case of bad weather . Dont over water and once its established a little only water every 2-3 days until its completely dry to encourage the roots deeper . look at getting one of those ph meters that also tell soil dampness about $15 on ebay .

Put some mulch around the hole sugar cane or alfafa is good . you sort of want this sort of look .

I'll look into that, thanks for your advice. I'll keep yall updated and post some more pictures here in a few days. It's about to rain for the next 5 days, anything I should do that would help it?

Window screen will break a heavy rain that might harm a young seedling.

Awesome. What about it drowning?

this is were they get to mid way and close to the end

the plastic bottle will protect it unless you get a flood

I suppose u could dig a little trench to take the excess water away. I generally plant them on a bit of a mound to avoid that problem. I use yucca plant extract as a surfactant. avoid L D S
Localized dry spots.

Awesome!! You guys are great, again thanks for the help. I'll let you know how it's going here in a few day.
