Hi dude :) I grown little threes last year (check my sig), but it is hard to go there (From my home to the spot we can count 1hour).

There are a lot of reasons why we decided this year to only grow autos.

The first one: me and my growfriend won't be able to maintain the plants in august and september (holidays and work). WIth autos the grow will be ended in mid july. If autos had not existed, I would not be growing outdoor this year.

The second: We are out of weed! Last year's weed jars are nearly empty! With autos we'll be able to get fresh weed in july (harvest begin late june).

The third: The work! Last year we planted in april, and harvested the last ones the end of november. That means during 8 months, visiting the spot at least each week takes way too much time. Here we planned the grow from may to max mid july. Two months, and we'll get much more weed than last year ;)

4°: At this spot, the soil is nearly perfect, sunshine is great but we noticed that in september the plants are getting realy less sunshine, that is caused by the surrounding nature and the sun that falls in the sky after June 21. They are shaded.

5°: I love this reason: I bought all the necessary equipment for an indoor grow (around 600€). I can't wait to start (well, in fact I wait since 3 months, for some reasons like people visiting my appartment : the plumber). Some plants are already growing on my balcony, and I'll put them in bloom in my cupboard directly when it will be possible. I bought the whole equipment for a hps 400w hydro setup (cooltube v4, big extraction, flogro500, complete fertilizers, and testers). Be sure I won't grow autos indoor (seeds for september round are in front of me: Chronic, Afghan kush, LSD, G13 Haze)

I'll start a thread as soon as the grow begins.

So yeah, we don't do "normal plants", but I'm not a pro-AF, but for this year it's very convenient.


I'm sure I won't be disappointed by the smoke!

More pics to come!!
Green vibes!
Peace :rasta:

btw i think if they get bigger that it would be adviseable to bend one to the left and one to the right and keep alternating like that


this way they will have more light in those rows

It is probably going to happen soon :p
For the moment they have great light, but when the free space will be tight, I'll do bend for sure :)

Thanks for the advices man.

Respect! :tiphat:

Autos seem a good solution to this seasons need for you.

Me too, my stash jars are empty so my Autos are saving me from a smokeless summer.

You will love the Vertigo! I just harvested a few test buds at 41 days and the smoke is among the very best I've ever had. I'm pretty sure that Sensi Star was one of the parents Paradise used when breeding Vertigo.

May, 19 : UPDATE!

May, 19 : UPDATE!

Hi guys, time for an update!!
The weather here is hot ! We've got 25°C all day long. Very sunny, almost no clouds during two weeks! (well it rained once I think).

The little stream is drying quickly (fuck fuck fuck ;) ), but for the moment the plants just look so great!

The auto ak * lowryder 2 are the biggest ones! Branching great :)

I've tied down some plants, we'll see what it will give us :)

I'm feeding them with BioGrow and Hesi Bloom complex.

The ones on the (extrem-)right are the feminiseds and have one or two weeks less than the others plants

They are all females. Starting flowering nicely, stretching great (I like that outdoors!).

I spent much time mulching the plants. They will love it for sure.

Auto AK F3 on my balcony



Plants on the spot! Looking so great!!
















I don't have much time now to explain everything, If you have any questions feel free to ask! :wave::wave:


:tiphat: Positive Vibes ICMAG :tiphat:


Peace ! :rasta:

Haxi,

On my farm I had a small stream like yours near my vegetable garden. I took some wood and brush and made a small dam to back water up. I also scooped out a deep enough pool to submerge a small 12 volt pump. It worked very well.

Your garden is small enough that you don't need the pump, but the dam and a small bit of digging should preserve a water supply for a while.

I think they are all femmed seeds that were used so no males hopefully.

We've planted 45 regulars and 11 feminised seeds. On that we got approx 40 females! :)

I won't replace the males we cut, but I'm training the plants were the free space is.

The plants are totaly healthy :) :dance013: :dance013:

Haxi,

I love the "garden." I see some grass/hay mulch around a few. I wonder if there's enough more to rake up and mulch that garden a little more? I used to mulch my tomatoes like this to cut down on watering and it really helped.

May 27 Update!

May 27 Update!

High guys :D

Bloods, Claude Hopper, Sky high, Hollaachu, VoDvaR, Charles Ingalls: Thank you all guys for passing by! :tiphat::tiphat:

So me and my friend went to the spot at the end of the day. We've been getting plenty of great weather these days.

Looks like the plants absolutely loved mulching!

The weather is so hot, I can't tell you guys. We've been getting more than 30°C each day, in may in france that's great :dance013: :)

We have found one dead plant lying on the spot. Some animal just dug out the Cream Caramel femenised...She's now dead. We've seen some holes like if the animal dug out one plant, and said "oh no, not this not the right one" and dug out another one and oh yes that is the one!! ... Stupid animal, fuck you can don't ruin my crop bitch :p
No realy, we think that it won't cause much damage, because there are just no animals there. Or just one or two ;)


I'm totaly impressed by those autos. They are nicely branching, and took maybe 10cm in one week :D
The ones that I trained are just going great, making some automatic bushes :D :dance013:

They are all greatly flowering now. We've got 38 autos.
The resin is already kickin in, and the calyxes are forming nicely!

Some phenos are BIG ! I love that :dance013:

Big devil #2 Femenised... Female! :)







Auto AK47 F3 - looks like we'll get 3 main buds on this girl :)




Global views







I think this view will be super-great at the end of flowering :D



Hope you guys like the show! This year outdoor is realy promising.


Feel free to comment :)
