2015 New England Guerilla

[Rob547]

Whats up ICMAG, been a long while since I've had any threads around here, figured better late then never.

This year most of them were started inside so didn't lose many and numbers are a little higher than usual. 15 total out, 2 different spots. Unfortunately, between mixing them up and losing a few, no clue what strains they are haha.

Anyway, all organic, recycled soil from the last yr or 2. Nutrients are mostly just kelp meal, chicken manure and some organic garden tone. Plus this supreme growers tea in a packet stuff, works pretty well, mostly BMOs and all that good stuff. Best part is the packets are about $3 and you just throw it right into a gallon jug and you're done!

The biggest in the swamp is taller than me, probably 6'2+, 2 of the same strain out there but others are smaller. Cant wait to see it bud though. The biggest is the last 2 pics.

Rest are at the other spot all different sizes and ages, biggest are about 5'5 or so one big LSTd one. Smallest are pretty young maybe 6 weeks at most. Most in 7-10 gallon pots.

One strange thing is that most started flowering about a month early, mid July, while I never see preflowers before about mid-Aug. Wish they had more veg time but will be done sooner I suppose...

On with the pics, stay safe out there everyone.

Hi fellow new englander. hope all is well. i cant see any pics tho?

 

[Rob547]

really? Anyone else? I see them on mine.. yeah everything's cruisin along over here, lots of rain and not much heat until recently.

 

[gorilla ganja]

no can't see pics

 

[Chunkypigs]

no pics here, change privacy settings on albums.
I put some out in a spot that got shade early like 4pm and had them trigger 2 weeks ago.
I used a north south hedgerow to try a passive light dep.
I put a few plants there that were 4 weeks flipped in a tent that finished flowering without reverting to veg.
the buds that finished didn't get nice like indoor but it was cool.

Thanks Chunky! Hopefully pics are good now?

Interesting, where my 3 swamp plants are (first to flower) they are on the edge of a really dense pine forest, south-facing out towards the water but hard to tell how much direct light they get.

Pics are good now, and there looking good too man

Please rotate your pictures on the right way before posting, I cannot enjoy looking at a picture where left is up, right is down and so on.
Thank you in anticipation, happy growing!

My Northeast swamp grows always preflower in mid-july.

Yo yo, another New England swamped here! It's been a few tick-less weeks since I've checked on things, heading out there thus evening. Gotta love that high water table, even with not enough rain, no hand watering has been needed, plus the Swamp is just outdoor adventuring, not the staple crop. Good luck guys, I hadn't seen any pre flower as of aug. 1

Looking good Rob! I'm enjoying the swamp too!

Hope you have a great harvest of mold free flowers bro!

Mandala #1 New England Swamp Tube

Mandala #1 New England Swamp Tube

Mandala #1 seeds save me from myself because I neglect the plants terribly. I made these tubes of green vinyl coated wire wire lined with landscape fabric and filled with five gallons of compost/perlite mix. Typically one to three ounces per tube will be harvested mid-to-late September. The access is very difficult across streams, through brush and mud. Hip boots are required. I grew Satori last year. Wow, what a stinker and potent. It runs a bit late, though, for a swamp that becomes cold and damp in late September.

Sideways pics aren't much of an issue imho. However, if you want to fix it open the image in paint (or similar program) and click rotate 90* then save.

 

[Rob547]

Thanks everyone, everything still looking good for a harvest, a couple were real dry today though... hot week ahead but not too much worry about temps most of the year. Had one male, a big one unfortunately.

Hipster - looking good man, always wanted to run some mandala seeds but never have

pics coming soon

 

[Rob547]

As promised, here's the swamp spot. 1 not looking so great (not pictured), but biggest looks great. Last 3 pics are biggest.

Heat wave and drought still, but likely close to the end of that.
Swamp spot should be done in maybe 4 weeks, biggest maybe a few days earlier.

 

[Rob547]

Main spot, got a few more but not pictured.. something weird going on with 3 but might get into that later.
All seem a little behind the other spot, the youngest 6 are behind everything... (4th pic)
Dont like to keep anything substantial out after Oct 15, so we'll see how the weather is in 3-4 weeks..

 

[NEFarmer]

nice man, im keeping my fingers crossed about the weather also.

 

[Rob547]

Most are in, weather took a rough turn today, not sure if I need to harvest early... blah
