Taking a page outta @Dirtbag 's book, starting an outdoor thread for 2021!

Here in NorCal, we've had some pretty weird early/mid spring weather. Cold and dry. This is my 2nd season growing outdoor, and I learned a lot last year. Last fall, I cover cropped my 4x10 bed with crimson clover in order to pump up the N. The weekend of the Spring solstice, I chopped the cover crop and covered in Bu's Blend compost and let nature do it's thing. About 4 weeks later, I sowed seeds of various beneficials (alyssum, marigolds, zinnias). Further, I've constructed a hoop house out of EMT, about 6' tall in the center. Covered in poly. The caterpillars pissed me off royally last year so covering my plants this year was essential. They seem to love it! Onto my plants.

I have 3 healthy plants going right now, adding a 4th this weekend. Popped seeds March 17, planted in the bed April 17. In hindsight, I would have waited a couple extra weeks and potted up from 4" to 1 gal pots before planting them in the bed, but I got antsy.

From front to back: Orange Bud (Fem, Homegrown Cannabis), Syrian Hashplant (Reg, Seedsman), "Jazz Cabbage" (Mother is Harlequin CBD, Father is ???? - found 3 seeds in my harvest last year and I got 1 lady out of it based on Phylos sex test). Jazz Cabbage is VIGOROUS. The fan leaves are massive. I've topped both the Jazz Cabbage and the Syrian, each once. I haven't topped the Orange Bud yet because it was off to a really slow start. It's happy now.

Thanks. I use stylet oil and it works great but soon the flowers will come and no more spraying. I have never seen the amount of aphids we are dealing with. Millions of them! Nothing but environmental terrorism if you ask me.

I would need thousands. Picture an indoor infestation that you might have seen online, then transfer that outside. This is blanketing this part of the state, not localized to my area even.

Gonna harvest some of the males soon! Gave my buddy some females for his first ever grow so have been enjoying helping him out with that, been looking into getting my recreational grow license and business license here soon so I'm also really looking forward to being able to start my own business! But man y'all are absolutely killing it! Got some monsters this year! Haha

Green Lacewing eggs work for me. Haven’t seen one aphid this year 🤞🏾. Been killing baby grasshoppers on my plants though. Bastards are everywhere.


Today was watering day. Gave them some Epsom salts because they’re looking a little light.

The largest of these are up to my brow line (I’m 6’5). I’m afraid they’re going to blow the roof off of this gh by the end of their stretch lol.
