So got all the plants into the hoop house today, figured they would outgrow the t5's plus might as well get the use to the sun.
obviously there is more plants in here besides my 18, im vegging plants for 3 different properties
right now we are supplementing the light cycle with a mixture between the sun and light is 3:30 am until 8:30 Pm we will start backing the hours off 15 mins at a time over the next 4 weeks, until we're at 5 Am until 9 pm.

PLANTS ARE DOING FANTASTIC in the hoop house, its been hot as hell at the greenhouse property at 2400ft. averaging low to mid 80's, there was no shock at all going from t5's straight into the hoop house.


i switched my timer in the hoop house, lights come on at 4 am - 7 am then i let the sun take over then the light comes back on at 6-9pm so im getting 17 hours of light right now, but will eventually have the morning light come on a 5 am, will do it in 15 minute intervals over the next few weeks. i will probably keep all the plants in the hoop house until june 6th or 7th just to be safe then ill grab the u-haul and tow them in there 10 gallon pots home to be transplanted into there 150 gallon pots for the season. i have a 6 month property inspection on June 5th lol, so all the shit going on i have to take down a 10 light setup and veg room in my basement, moved all my indoor plants, then after the inspection set my indoor back up and moved my outdoor plants here. I am dreading june but also excited at the same time haha :D, im not new to property inspections i grew indoor in an apartment for 5 years so you gotta do what you gotta do. take down/setup a few times a year oh well.
this would be alot harder if i didnt have a 215 friendly property a half hour down the street i can veg the outdoors at and my landlord will let me set the date and times so i can work around it.

i've never been evicted. i hide it well. u-haul loves me, my last year growing on non 215 friendly properties i hope.

kind of nervous hope the plants dont outgrow my area. i only have 20 feet in width so the plants only get roughly 6.66 feet each in width.
ill try to head into the city this week to pick up my pallets so i can kind of do a test fit and take a picture.
to water ill have to get one of the mechanic creepers or an old skateboard. Oh boy

Hey I don't know if it will hold up through any storms. I might reinforce the buckets with sandbags for stormy day and remove any privacy screen that might catch wind. But np

well i kno ive been absent from the grow journal for a while, some stuff happened things changed and ive been really busy working at different locations but well heres the story. I was at the river and some 18 year old kids were hanging out there too and they burned a bowl with me. So i was curious new to the area i asked if alot of people were growing up here, and he replied "Yea a few people" "i get indoor from this old lady up the street" and "Theres this one guy he has his privacy fence up he lives at so and so next to the so and so" he described my pad dead on and i dont even have plants at my house yet ive been vegging at another property. anyway he sketched me out if people already assume small town etc im only doing 8 now here and im doing my other 10 at another property. and the strains i was doing here got too big so they stayed at the other property and now im doing 6 white widows and 2 blue cheeses at my house which werent started april 20th they were strarted in may. anyway im all screwed up now i guess ill change the title to 8 plant grow and ill just take a few pics from the other property every now and then and share them here too. sorry guys

I think you need to private message the forum moderator to get the title changed.

if you are only planning on doing 10 there and you are legal, why worry. Get some dogs and and befriend the locals. Worse case scenario you pull em up and just keep the ones at the other spot.

fuck those kids dude. just get a motion sensor, trail cam, guard dog and security cameras.
I use all the above and seems to work so far. grow your legal limit and dont let those dumb kids spoil your season. I like to setup the trail cam on the perimeter of the property to make sure there arent people lurking around n shit. good luck with that.

thanks for all the advice guys ive decided to do 8 150 gallons pots,
6 white widow and 2 blue cheese. also i am going to do 4 45 gallon pots, not sure what strain yet i am going to start shopping on craigslist and bud trader for some acclimated vegging teens. My other 10 plants are now in 200 gallons at another property so its all good.
anyway 18 would of been crowded and i am next to a church, bus stop all that bad stuff so i dont need any problems from babylon, i moved to this house without knowing the 600 feet from church thing and didnt know there was a bus stop until i was already here, but i have my garden very well hidden no one can see it from any direction. wish me luck this season. cheers from Nor Cal
