UK Outdoor 2013

[MJBadger]

I may pot up the FONs into 10L pots as recommended

Forgot to say , up to 3ft in 10lt but one of our guerilla kings had them up to 5ft or a bit more growing in garden beds .

 

[spiritual uk]

going to hibernate for a bit,i should be back mid summer with updates.

I've bought a plastic greenhouse for the same location as last year.I will put one lsd clone in the greenhouse then surround it with the apapulcox matioba and the herijuana x rocket chunk ,round the perimeter.Hopefully it will be a better season for all of us north to south.

wish you all a good season ,and stay safe.

namaste

Get your pH higher and use some silica and this will end.

When you get your sap pH up to 6.4 you will not have fungal problems anymore. Read some stuff by Bruce Tainio.

It is the reason you see the outdoor guys recommending such high Ca levels. What you really want is base cation saturation of 68% Ca, 12% Mg, 5% K, less than 2% Na and 12% H. Get that and you do not have to worry about fungal attack at all. Insect pressure will be low to none also.

This is the real key to running plants for a long time. Anything will get you through 8-10 wks...skill is required when you are looking at a 1/2 yr plus

Fuck all the poisons and the stoner tricks...learn the Albrecht method and update that with Tainio.

interesting post wam

if you have anymore tainio mold tips? id love to hear them and im sure a few others would to

ive heard a dusting of dolomite lime, just before flowering helps fight mold. ill be using silica (horsetail) teas and foliar sprays this season for sure.

*shiver*

Hope the weather stops being such skanky twat.
I got wet and cold and my early plants look a bit pale.

If it goes below 6 degrees again tonight
I'm just going to attempt to drag the earth closer to the fkn sun it would be easier than trying to germinate out there in a cold frame.

 

[MJBadger]

wota , interesting info , stinging nettle tea is very high in silica/ca also .
Ain`t this weather a bitch ? see the pic of the jet-stream on the weather the other day & it`s formed a great bit loop around the bottom of britain , until that shifts (if it does) we are in for some more bad stuff . Mad last night with snow in shropshire & frosts forecast tonight . Don`t be too hasty in planting out .

 

[Nunsacred]

... Don`t be too hasty in planting out .

Yeh agreed, but if this cold snap continues like this for another 3 weeks, it'll actually favour the early starters.
There comes a point where the normal ones can't catch up.

I put some out on the 2nd May. 9/10 have survived this far and 3/10 look quite healthy despite the temperatures. They're now quite well advanced.
Meanwhile I'm having trouble getting the main grow started in these intermittent icy showers.

[Nunsacred]

yeh I realised that "not growing" isn't a realistic option

Compromise, small grow.

Hopefully have a few nice pics in August.... Cheers wam

 

[dill786]

Hi all

Thought I would do a little update tonight, so far we have

9x unknown

These were popped before the others so they are quite far ahead.

7 Unsexed FON aka AAH or auto ak haze, these are in raised beds with veg!

5x leb27xPTK
4x PP/AP11 X ERD/PURT back x I'm just gonna call these guys Pappie!
5x HFH HP2
1x Danish passion
1x Erdpurt

These will be joined by some trance and freisian dew cuttings and planted outdoors in june.

Any questions or advice..shoot away!

Peace

S.S

I had some germination issues with these seeds, so ended up with less plants than anticipated but I'm going to pop the rest of the seeds I had in this lot!

All of these are under a 400w hps along with various mums!

I also have a AF-SOG going with 7 FON and 2 AK49 (auto ak47)

Biodynamic Prep Combos; Silica/Lime Polarity

i find bio-dynamics fascinating, how the elements effect plant growth and how to fight mold, insect damage etc...

there's a good part on horsetail, which us northern growers really need to appreciate the benefits of this silica rich plant (and lime) and our fight against mold.

Just got my Paradise Seeds Sweet Purples out,used to grow them years ago when they were bog standard seeds,now they are fems with a hefty price hike,but speculate to accumulate Doing quite a few other strains this year including Female Seeds new red-purps,but the sweet purples are old school
