Meds215 2014 Outdoor Mountain Grow 18 150 gallon pots

So finally I get to go outside this year, this inside stuff is fun but i really like the sun.

I am taking a big chance with a few strains I have never grown,and or known anyone who has grown these strains outdoors. So i guess i'm going to be the test dummy, Oh well i have high hopes.

My Growing area is roughly 55 x 20 Ft The deer fence is 6 ft T post in 5 gallon buckets with 80lb fence post concrete and 6 foot horse fence. It seems easier to take down later after all i am renting here don't want to jack hammer up the backyard, the carport was added for provided privacy from the road, seemed like the best plan for a 12 foot fence.

5 Candyland (Bay Area Platinum Cookies x Grand Daddy Purple)

5 Key Lime Pie (Cherry Kush x Fire OG x Durban Poison)

4 Regulator Kush (Reversed Bubba x AJ's Sour D) x SFV OG

and

4 UK Cheese which i know if this is a good cut these should yield decent

In 150 Gallon Smart Pots on Pallets in a medium
that consist of

Coco Fiber, Perlite,
6 QUALITY FINISHED Composts
DIESTLE TURKEY COMPOST, NEW ERA COMPOST,

Water and nutrient top dressing schedule 3 waterings a week in this order
Veg
1. Water
2. MR B's Grow
3. Tea

and

Bloom
1.Water
2. Mr B's Bloom
3. Tea

I might throw some General Oranganics into the line up in bloom every other week with Mr b's but i am still undecided the budget is running out fast.
I am really stoked about Mr B's Product and can't wait to try it out, a full Nute top dressing in 2 bottles I Love it, and managing 3 plots this year i wont have time to mess around too much with mixing 275 gallon tanks with 6 different bottles.

Everything is Vegging Beautifully in the Greenhouse

Goal is to hit 2 elbows per pot, doesn't seem like it should be out of reach. Anyway thanks for checking in ill update as we go.

Looks like you're in for a good year, meds215!

loving the carpot idea to block the road.

Got the deer fence up today, still going to attach reed privacy screen for the neighbors behind me and also 98% fabric block for the road but its all coming together

MALIBU COMPOST

FTW

Yeah that Bu's Blend is good stuff, would use it more often if it wasn't so dang expensive for manure. Def think it's worth it when growing elite cuts though, don't skimp on the soil then.

Yea I didn't mix the medium myself I bought it off a soil company $101 a yard we got 40 yards delivered for 3 dif properties

I sure hope these key limes do good I figured with durban in there they should do well

looking good bro! this will be fun.

those strains should do well, i'm guessing you will get at least a couple lbs per plant. What part of Cali are you in, and where did you get your dirt? i'm looking for soil for a few gardens around CA and sounds like you found a good deal

@shcrews I'm at 38.50 n 120w bought the soil from rare earth out of grass valley it's there wacky alaskan blend no green waste. They usually don't come this far south but I paid the 105 an hour delivery cost and they brought it.

We're in the motherlode too! 3500ft elevation

thanks so much! yah we are at 3000ft a bit south of you, the sun gets intense. already sunburned lol

hell yes!

looking good

The sun is so intense now I see why the outdoor from the foothills is so good. Climate seems perfect, and it won't get as hot as the valley so less stopping of photosynthesis.

I'm a long time indoor grower and I'm doing a outdoor for the first time and in the same boat. I'm running my indoor strains which nobody in my area have ran outside. Fuck it's still a plant so I'm sure it will be fine. Best of luck bro!!!

So i decided to build a 10x30 hoop house to veg in at another property and also acclimate the plants to the sun, plus i was running out of room and electricity isnt cheap considering im paying almost 36 Cents a kwh. Currently the Plants are at 17 1/2 hours of light and i will be dropping them down to 17 here pretty soon and By the end Of May i hope to be at 16 hours of light.
I hung a cheap t8 4 bulb fixture in the hoop house to keep the plants from flowering. anyway heres where i am at. Its raining here and snowing at 4000 ft today so i will wait until monday to put the plants in the hoop house. looks like 80's next week
the pics of the clones were about 3 or 4 days ago also i have alot of other plants in the picture for dif properties

snowing here at the property 3400Ft April 25th! I actually really like it

What's Good, Meds215?

Looking like your are getting off to a great start.
You did a great job on the hoop house.

I think we might be in the same county.

I'll be taking a seat, and watching your garden flourish.

Peace

Ty man wasn't too hard to build it. About $270 and 3 hours of work super simple. I don't use a level so a carpentar would pick it apart but we're not building houses here so idgaf
