Been a while since i've done a grow, this isn't really a full grow just an experiment in outdoor growing at my new locale.
I decided to go organic since it was the easiest. soil mix is
2 parts composted manure (2x 40lb bag)
1 part rich black topsoil (1x 40lb bag)
1 part mushroom compost. (1x 40lb bag)
1 brick of coco (makes 6 quarts)
1 bag of perlite
2 cups bone meal
1 cup dolomite
i also added some banana leaves, some banana's and eggshells and coffee grounds and orange peels and shit like that to compost further, but the plant i grew was in the mix i listed before i added the waste scraps.
the plant was just some random bagseed from the local outdro they have for sale here.
we pick up out adventure at roughly 5 weeks from seed. outdoor here is always 12/12 all day err'day. this is why they have sexed and are only 5 inches tall. left side is the male, right side is the female. i didn't plan to pollinate the female, but i didn't kill the male in time and i ended up with a hand full of seeds.
lets call this week one of flower.
Week 2 of flower. I transplanted the female into this handy dandy EcoPot (patent pending) container i got at walmart. growing a little bit, but not as fast as indoor since it was like 80 degrees in the day and 60 at night during this time.
this is just a little something to get started, i'll be back with more later.
