Ive been growing guerilla for a long time now and i guess ive tried every approach known to man kind over those many years. Ive had 200 plants in a cornfield and 4 in the back yard and everything in between.
I want to share with you a method of growing that will provide the grower with big yields and highly successful grows be they beginners or long time growers. This approach works and as long as you follow 3 basic rules that are imperative.
1. The plants cant be found and a 12' cannabis plant is big. I recomment 1 plant per site. I have a couple of spots where i plant 2 plants but normally i only plant 1 whopper per site. First, i plant a small number of plants and i cant affort to loose any of them, but further and rule number 2 concerns water.
2.A big cannabis plant requires a lot of water. 1" of raing per week or 3 gallons every 5 days. You must be able to water the plants if it gets dry. you cant carry more than 6 galloons of water which limits the number of plants to 2.
3.You have to choos a strain that is (potent), proven, tough, big and vigorous enough for the great outdoors. You may as well sit at home and find someone to buy your weed from if you choose a finicky indoor strain. Good vigourous outdoor strains wont need bug spray nor disease prevention.
To get big yields in guerilla where the soil is poor and conditions far from perfect, you have to think small.
A guerilla grower can generally harvest much more smok with 5 plants than they cant with 25 plants. Unless your groiwing in an area that has good native soil, your going to have to deal with soil defiiciencies and doing that with 25 or more plants can be a huge and expensive undertaking. I worked my ass off for years trying to grow 40-50 plants and ending the season with 4-5 lbs of smoke on a good year in which i litterally worked my ass off.
One day a while back, i decided to go small and my yekis are massive. This year i helped 2 guys with their grows: 1 had been growing for 10 years and the other had made a couple of tryies but had harvested very little. This year was different.
I had each grower buy 5 femmed seeds. I gave them a list of seeds. 1 bought 5 spontanca seeds from KC brains and the other bought 5 Pinapple chunks from Barneys. Both strains get big enogh to yield 2 lbs, are potent and finish late sept. Neither is succeptable to bugs or diesease.
Then i helped each one find their grow sites with a single plant at each site. At each of the planting sites, we dug a hole 30"X14" deep(double dig). We filled each hole with 3 bags of Fox farms Ocean forest soil at a cost of 60 bucks. The 5 holes cost both guys 300$ and both were crying over the expense. They both had a total cost of less than 400$
On may 1, they both planted their seedlings that they had starte on April 1 and where about 10-12" tall. All that was left once the planting took place was to water.
We had decent rainfall this year so watering was limited to 2 times, once in mid august and the other cam mid sept.
3 bags of ocean forest soil in a hole that is 30X14" and a vigourous big yielding strain like spontanica will yeild 2lbs of smoke.
The spontanica grower finished the season with his 5 plants yeilding a total of 7lbs 2 oz's and the pinapple chunk grower finished his season with 6 lbs even.
The retail value of their grows were $21,000 and $18,000 respectivly for rtheir investment of $400 bucks and not really all that much work.
A young strong grower might be able to hadle 10 - 15 plants but the watering requirement is limiiting. Big plants require water.
Good luck.
