First Outdoor Grow

Smoke Purp · 04-10-2011, 10:59 AM

Hey guys, ive been doing a ton of research and planning for my grow op this season. Obviously its my first time and i had a couple questions that i couldnt find the answers too on "http://www.tokecity.com/forums/faq/growfaq/"

What type of fertilizers should i use during the differnt stages of the grow? like this for when its a baby or that when your flowering.

Dont worry many more questions to come and hopefully some pictures very soon!

I think most folks either, depend on the organics in the soil, or they use a granular (time release) like Osmocote.

So theres no "use A now B later and C after that" kind of approach?

Not really, cuz that would require mandatory visits. Those continuous use ferts are fer indoor, where you got ready access to plants. Until recent years, most outdoor has bin stealth, so limited visits is necessary. Folks might scratch in some guano at the appearance of bud sets, but that's aboot it. That bein the history, you are pretty much able to try anythin ya want...provided ya got ready access. Legal folks are now tryin stuff like hydro outdoors.

*edit* If yer doin pots, that's different. I'm assumin yer doin in-ground plants.

Ok thanks and Im doin pots outside

Butcher Bob · 04-12-2011, 05:15 AM

Ok, different situation then.
Wut soil ya puttin in 'em?
This a backyard grow...with daily access?

Smoke Purp · 04-12-2011, 04:18 PM

Yeah Il be able to go to em every day. Starting from seeds which im still trying to pick/figure out and still undecided on what soil im gna use (thinking just regular potting soil?) Any suggestions? Ive heard good things about using those clay balls instead of soil too any truth to that?

On the soil... Stay away from MG products & soils with bark/wood chips. MG products have a tendency to burn yer plants, and MJ don't like bark/wood chips in it's soil. I would use a non-ferted, peat-based potting soil. Then either mix a good organic soil up (addin worm poop, blood & bone meals, etc.), or water the nutes in like an indoor grow.

Them clay balls are fer hydro set-ups.

I would go with a Sun#4 or a PRomix type of mix and dirt a nice area as your bed that is about 12-16inches deep if possible.. and then also depending on budget fill said spot with a mix such described by Bob above PLUS and organic Soil ... very good advice imo... i dont know too much about outdoor feeding from that point forward... but i would listen too bob's suggestions Good luck brother!!
