outdoorsydank's NE 1st grow 2012

what's up everyone, i'm starting my first outdoor grow thread in northern new england. i am trying the strains big blue, frisian dew, hollands hope, durban poison, voodoo, and some good ol' bagseed. i am germing half of them at the moment but already started one big blue three weeks ago. i have promix b for soil, and the three foxfarm ferts (tigerbloom, big bloom, and grow big). i've done a solid amount of researching since last fall but hope you guys can be here for some guidance along the way. here's a picture of the big blue, there's some weird yellow spots on it but it's been in pretty shitty conditions so i can't complain all that much. and the growing season has begun...

thanks for the advice man that helps, it should be getting warm this coming week though

alright everyone so i germed all half of them successfully, i created my own greenhouses to start them out, here's a picture of one of them.

i just got ten frisian dew and ten hollands hope also...germing now..hopefully ready to clone by late may and put outdoors...the yield should be there for these two strains

the best plant i have ever grown as far as yield and dankness was hollands hope...got gifted a seed about 4 years ago..have never ordered from dutch passion because i hear a lot of bad stories..poor germ rates and prone to herm..so we shall see

That should do the trick Bro ... At least until it warms up a little bit later this week here in NE. Looks like the better weather is coming in by Friday (May 4th) !! I think we all are in overdrive due to the warm weather that we had in March and also a little bit in early April That sure did get the blood moving in my veins to get gardening The older generation (me included) are apt to begin planting around Memorial Day, and that is when I will be planting my garden outdoors. In the meanwhile, your greenhouse looks like it will work until then, and I would then place them outside. As far as a thread, I am still tossing that thought in the air. I have a lot on my plate this coming summer, and when I do something, I like to do it well. Kind of anal when it comes to stuff like that. I will stay in touch, and let you know tho Bro. In the meanwhile, best of luck in your grow
