Lsd broke ground overnight, waitin on duban an cheese to show, going into 4" pots with Roots organic and under 4ft fluros( with all my garden veggies) until end of may then prolly to 5 gal pails with a veg soil mix until early july then into holes in the woods with a flower nuted mix to finish.... at least thats the plan... havin 3 full plants and an auto or 3 in the yard might be too much cause im gonna have to move them for cookouts and whatnot... how much would a 5' plant in a 5 gal bucket with soil weigh? cant be much over 50lbs right???

Its getting to be about that time!! Got 13 of my Barneys Farm Red Dragons looking nice and healthy for the summer sun. To accompany them I have a Arajans Strawberry Haze, Power Kush, Auto AKxBlueberry,5 Diesel Ryders,Dinafem White Widow,Dinafem Blue Widow, and I beleive thats it but think im forgetting a few.Got 13 of the Red Dragons under my new 2FT T5's, 5 Diesel Ryders under a 90w UFO, and the rest under a 400w HPS. Been mixing it up with the natural sunlight for all of my babies on nice days but indoor lights on the shitty weathered ones. Time to get my grow bags filled up with my Roots soil and head into my woods =D

Some Jack Herer goes for 400 nearby and generally stuff goes from 250-400 depending on quality and time of year.

It should be well below 50lbs. It will mostly be the weight of the soil. Try to move it just before you water it so you won't have the water weight to move.

Ive noticed after smoking for the last six years of my life dro is a seasonal thing for us, we get it late september october and basically cant get rid of it till feb/march...with some acceptions but for the most part the market is flooded with dro

I find it similar. We get some import from other areas of the country too. Some friends have a direct line to Cali and drive it in and then lay it over the winter. Lots of dro in the spring too usually to start off the summer rush. Things become scarce here when the college kids come back into the area. That's when the good stuff goes up in price.

if prices ever increased here riots would ensue

lol.. not here. There are so many different places to get and people to get it from. We're not far from Vermont and it's a five college area so between the music seen and the college turnover it's like a cannabis clearing house.

Things started rough for me.Lost the Cheese and Durban to seed rot-never using jiffy pellets again,great for veggies not herb. I reordered another Durban and some Auto Assasin, which were out of stock so I was upgraded to Super Cali Haze Auto's. Lost a Haze to seed rot(jiffy pellets!!!). So total now I have a Durban-about a month+ old,a LSD-2 months+, a RBS(Random Bag Seed)-4months+,and a Big Bang Auto(freebie with 1st order)-1month old tomorrow.All but the Big Bang were transplanted into 5 gal buckets with SuperSoil mix about 3 weeks ago. The RBS and LSD are being LST'd and bushing out nicely. The Durban is kinda lagging, been droopy cause of cool weather and rain,hopefully when I go home she has perked up. Big Bang was started in a homemade root/air pruning bucket with Roots organic and some organic nutes mixed in,I LST'd her a week ago and she just started showing flowers, so 3-4 weeks to go. I got a journal going, hopefully I can update this weekend.

Sucks I lost a couple of mine from the same thing the peat moss can't hold water for shit now I just throw some mulch on top and it helped alot.That random bagseed must be a beast by now haha. You using any nutes on the ladies?

I was using those peat pellet that you add water to and they expand,Ive found its a delicate balace between over/under watering with them,next year my MJ gets started right in soil.

Yeah,that bag seed is doing great, I put everything in 5gal buckets of a SuperSoil like mix and it just took off,on these sunny days Im seeing 1-2" of growth a day,Im figuring they will finish between 4-6' tall which is about as big as Id like them to get.The soil is all the nutes It will need-just water. Ive been tucking it down under a tomato cage to keep it short, now its got about 15 tops going, my LSD (which got the same tucking) has 7 tops, and the Durban is kinda lagging-I think I put it in the hot soil too soon,but its starting to go now. At this point Im letting them go for the next few weeks,once They start buding Ill spread,tie down and support em.

My 1 Auto is starting to bud-got about 3weeks to go, not expecting much like I said,it got a slow start with colder than usual temps and a week and a half of rain, then it got ravaged by catapillars or something..

It sucks but Im not sure how Im going to update pics. My dads comp died so I gave him mine to use seeing how I can do 99% of what I need to on my phone,except load pics(Stupid Iphone!). And Im not real crazy about posting pics from it either, not being totally sure if they are marked with location-call me paranoid,but Id rather be safe.

I got to OG18xskunk finishing under 1000w and 10 widows vegging and hopefully going under in another week. Trying a new soil mix as well. Hopefully it won't be too hot. I'm throwing the mother in now and will probably re-pot her and leave her under lights for a week or two in advance of the clones and see how she reacts to the new soil and cut it if she shows any serious burn. I did
4.5 Gal promix bx
4 tbsp. Happy Frog All purpose organic 5-5-5
.5 Gal Worm Castings
1 tbsp additional Lime.

Rain has slowed all my outdoor veges down this year.

I used Jiffy cups for my vegetable garden starters and they didn't do well. I can recommend peat plugs but popping them in paper towels and then into dirt works perfectly well.
