Greetings all from Peru! Firstly let me say that i have learned so much of what i know from this site over the years and that i have watched many great grows unfold here so thanks to all and keep up the good work.
I have been toying with the idea of making a thread for my grow and since im doing something a bit different and am in need of a fair bit of advice i have decided to go for it.
The grow im about to start is in the mountains of southern peru at a house in a quiet farming region. I have been growing for years indoors and have dabbled, with varying degress of success, in outdoor guerilla grows but only in the UK. This grow is in a region of high solar radiation and high altitude with forgivingly moderate rain and wind so pretty much basically similar to england in no ways. So im going to need advice from anyone with experience growing at altitude, growing/living in the mountains and with growing long flowering sativas as the day length here only changes by about 2 hours throughout the year.
Its going to be 4-6 plants in the ground outside by the end of august (southern hemisphere). Im growing some awesome seeds i got from a farmer here when i was trekking in the mountains earlier in the year. They are 100% pure sativa genetics from the highlands with a very long flowering time im going to pop a few and try to keep 1 male as well for seed production. I also want to try and get something from a reputable breeder that will suit my environment so if anyone has any suggestions for a hardy long flowering sativa they think would do well at high altitude please say.
Ill post updates reguarly and fingers crossed everything goes to plan but i am stepping into the unknown so i expect there to be complications along the way!
here is one of innumerable incredible views im lucky enough to have access to
