I recently joined this site because I found the silver back threads. My question is have any of you tried the 60 in 60 approach? I read the entire thread and did not come across any examples of it working other than what sb had presented. I'm not really questioning the method or it's validity. I'm questioning the results and practicality of it. It seems to me that it would be much easier to maintain/ hide 60 small plants than to care for 10/20 monsters? Also the smaller profiles would really seem to be more efficient in blending in. And the potential for an early harvest around August seems like it would be a no brainer for guerilla growers. Idk I'm a little new to this site and may have missed the examples where people actually did it. Thanks for any info I really appreciate it

The collection is in the sticky forums in the outdoor section. It basically said wait until about 2 or 3 weeks before light starts to decrease outdoors at your location,. Take clones root them and put them into 12/12 for two weeks or until you start seeing flower production, then transplant outdoors to your spots. The idea is that you crop will be smaller and less visible to leo in the air, as well as finishing 2 to 3 weeks faster than regular plants outdoors so rippers and leo may not even be looking hard at the time your plants finish. He also said northern latitude growers may be able to finish longer sativa dominated strains this way.

it makes sense because you'd be putting out plants that are already triggered for flowering as the critical night length is increasing
personally i'm envisioning about 4 foot tall plants @ my sites |

Mulch your plants!
I'm far enough out in the country that I don't have to hike for miles to the girls, but I still have to hike and hide them, and carry everything in.. I'm in the hills and about 36N lat. When you clear your area of vegetation for your grow, throw it all into a pile and let it compost. Mulching around your plants not only helps keep the soil in your holes from getting too dry, it also attracts earthworms from all around, who will then want to live there. Earthworms will be attracted to the bottom layer of 4 inches of mulch, and will aerate the soil in your holes and fertilize them with FREE worm castings.. This girl was put out in the hole 3 weeks ago when she was 26 inches tall in a 1 1/2 gallon container.. I took this pic on June 4, just before the 36 hours of non-stop rain started.. Went back out there this morning and she has grown since 2 days ago... ..

No pics this weekend. Plants are hurting.... I'm thinking they didn't get watered in well enough or its possible they didnt like being planted right after heavy feeding with organic fert. It was also a little wet when I dug the garden but I felt like it was dry enough to dig at least as deep as i needed to go. I had to get them put in when I had the time. They were growing so fast and now they have funny cupped/ twisted growth and a couple burnt leaves. I watered them twice after seeing them and we got a thunderstorm the next morning. I think they'll be ok... New growth looks good. I will get some shots this weekend.
liking this thread. Yawnnnn out of time once again... Have a good one! Heat is on the way! 90's coming soon here!

I have a few plants outside, I dug small holes (20 gallons roughly) filled with compost mix with vermiculite and perlite. and I mulched heavily with comfrey and will keep mulching. My plants are not going to be California trees, but I anticipate they will do well, mulch rocks!!! and its there around you waiting to be harvested!

Mulch makes sense especially on a hot/ dry year. Makes top dressing a little more complicated though. Hope my girls grow out of it. Maybe they need some mulch. Theres some dried grass laying on the ground nearby. I'll use that. Thanks guys!

Gr33n Santa is right, unless you grow in the desert, good mulch is all around you. It's just waiting to be harvested..
Besides a long handled shovel, a steel tined garden rake is another tool that stays stashed out at my grow all season... Walk into the woods, brush away the loose leaves that fell last winter, and there underneath you can rake up the finest mulch for your girls. And it's in unlimited quantities. And it's not only FREE, it's something else you don't have to pack in to your grow site.. While you rake up this free "Gold", you will often find earthworms and red wigglers underneath it. Throw them in your bucket with the mulch you collect and set them free in your holes under the fresh mulch you spread under your girls. The worms will stay around in better soil which you built up for your holes. Like I said before, FREE worm castings AND the nutrients from the forest floor duff, fertilizing your girls all summer...
