Here are my biggest and only plants I've ever grown, I hope my plants can one day be as massive as Tom's and Butte's.

Raco what outdoor bud do you like??? outdoor bud is not that popular here ... don't get me wrong there is a few crops here and there but for the most part if the rain hit's you will lose it. .. Plus as far as killer bud they don't seem to have killer bud. Couple of years ago they did do a TW crop that worked but I haven't seen that since then . In the clubs here all outdoor bud goes pretty cheap $6.00 gram. They do better up north where they get more sun but this rain forest sucks. peace out Headband707

MedReasercher: there are a couple of great OD:09 threads that discuss highly effective means of controlling caterpillars. Short answer: Spinosad and Safer Cat Killer will do the trick.

headband: if you had sun like california, outdoor ganja would be more popular. in fact, last night I put my OD blue dream up against a buddy's indoor blue dream. Same cut and he is a very experienced grower who has been growing the BD for a while inside and out. There was no question that the outdoor was just as good (better, actually to a longer cure, but I conceded that the indoor would cure out to the same dankness in time.)

and in order to make this a more appropriate, OT post... this is a concern of mine.... since i am going to be growing 12 pound monsters this year (that's more a projection of positivity than egotistical swagger, i promise) I am a little worried about my quality dropping off. At 5lbs- the monster of my personal experience, the quality was amazing. I'm interested to hear from the big plant vets as to whether they have experienced a drop in quality as yield increases.

nomaad the big ten plus plants get a lot of their yield on the second and third harvest which is usually tiered to accommodate the maturation of lower growth in such a big plant. So the quality, while some would say goes up, others would say goes down, and others would tell you its the same just different color :)

But strain specific im sure just like everything else.

nomaad I have seen a few big ones like that back east Ont. Sativa's grew fast and big lol actually had to take it down it got too big lol.. so I can't give an acuate report on the bud. But I have seen the outdoor grows in Cali from some killer strains and we would not get that here. ( I wish!! lol )We could plant that here but chances are it would rain just before harvest and no one wants to take that chance lol. No question that the sun in your latitude is much different then ours.. I have been to your part of the world and it's a different place then this all together. I think much better for growing outside.Not like ppl haven't tried here lol lol. They tried to pull off a big outdoor crop ontop of the mountain here just before the Olympics hit lol lol. Fools ,the helicoptors found that one pretty quick lol.. real shame they only had 2 more weeks looked like lol.. Even though the cops took their crop that night it's rained for 4 days straight so they would have lost it anyways peace out Headband707

Thanks Kopite. Ive enjoyed a few summers, but 19oz was my biggest yeilder (Blockhead), and 9 feet was my tallest plant (TimeBomb). Dude one year my whole harvest didnt match ONE of their plants! Only so much we can do in BC.


Not only are these peeps growing monsters, they are healthy monsters.:plant grow:

Peace outdoordreams

Location Location Location, least you guys can grow outdoors... and having seen the winters you guys have whilst watching the ski cross 19 don't seem bad... but fully agree the plants on show are very nice and big... we can all dream..

If anybody has pics of monster plant dried nugs next to familiar size reference objects like lighters, baseballs, baseball bats ;) those would be interesting to see. I'm sure the biggest colas do maybe a few ounces. wow that would be extraordinary.

LOL LOL NICE Nomaad see I want big outdoor grows just like that lol lol lol....now that is sweet.. I seen Tom Hill's TW outdoor and that doesn't look anything like ours. I assume because ours is TW X PK. or just PK Another popular one here is Green Crack but these are all clone only strains. Love your pics lol peace out Headband707
