nice outdoor space you got there, they should do great.

 

[chefboy6969]

thanks Gist..yes it is pretty nice..hehe...last year if you look at my pics in my gallery i grew Cherry Berry from Reeferman( awesome smoke definatley a keeper) Rez's quick Mist(alright) and Lemon Stinky(Matt on here) was pretty good..the keeper was Cherry Berry from her I got 1.5 lbs and from Lemon I got .75 lb and from Quick Mist (in same bucket as ISSX CTS ) i got 1/4 pound...
so you add it up pretty good for 3 plants..but what I learned is if you aren't around and give the plants TLC( shit can happen ie drought and disease and animals..so when people say I will plant and walk away..i kinda laugh,,,it takes much more TLC then just throwing seeds down and seeing what you get in Oct..
I also learned that planting in the ground with a nice 2' deep hole and 1 ' wide and amending the soil makes a big difference..in my holes are Triple Mix/Pro Mix and Blood Meal and Bone meal and Dolomite Lime and Vermiculite and a bit of perlite and I am feeding them AN..Voodoo Juice and B-52 and Humic Acid and in flower Carbo Load and Overdrive
my buddy moved away and left me with tons of Advanced Nutrients..so i am using them

Now I will start feeding them 3 part AN nutes(once all the rain has stopped) PLEASE...

ok so here is the CTSxISS as you can see I have been training them..so they become bushes..this one has been topped once and now both main stalks have been tied down..

here is the Jewel..she has been topped twice now..just yesterday actually..she is getting BIG






and finally the Blockhead..I think she got shocked by one night of cold temps but shes bouncing back topped once..

Lovely garden chef, yeah people are looking at the thread, wait until they are budding, thread will be full of posters Im sure. Im interested in the strains and you had the tip on those peat pots. So I keep checking in on ya.


You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to chefboy6969 again.

 

[fisher]

nice garden chef!
have you tried those strains outside before?

 

[chefboy6969]

no I never have tried these strains outside before..or for that matter EVER..I have a pretty big seed collection( been a seed whore for 5 years now)...So every season I try new genetics..It's good cause I can try and see what genetics I want to grow in the FUTURE...next year I am gonna do some of Rez's Chemdog(wanna see what the hype is all about) and think i am gonna do some old Northern Lights beans that I have..and who knows I will have to dig into my bean collection..last year I grew Reefermans Cherry Berry(definatley a keeper) Rez's Quick Mist ( was OK) and Lemon Stinky from Crazy X Seeds

[chefboy6969]

I am so stocked...I asked my dad if I could put my CTSxISS in his greenhouse to finish...cause it's not gonna finish in time where I live..and he said YES....fuckin awesome that means I can move the CTSxISS inside his greenhouse around Oct 7-10 until possibly Oct 20-25( when it should be all done)...Which is impossible unless you start 12/12 on your own(which i was planning on doing, but decided it was too much work) and Why the hell not let it finish in the greenhouse..Now I don't have to cover it or anything..It will finish on it's own...YEE HA

Looks great my friend! All your plants are looking very healthy. How hard were those poppies to sprout from seed(if you did sprout from seed)? They sure do make for some beautiful flowers
