I hear ya nameless. Im scared shitless to be honest with you. First year Im growing in peoples yards in full view, and noses, of the neighbors on all sides of them.
GG#4, Ancient OG, Blueberry Cheesecake, C99, Outdoor Grapefruit, etc...
Its gonna STINK! The buds will be peeping over the tops of the 6' fence.
With the new laws and the cloudiness of all the red-tape here, plus the thieving rippers EVERYWHERE, I gotta admit, this isnt gonna be an easy ride at all.
Im taking the risk only because the laws changed and its not in my yard.
Im putting in as little investment as possible and letting them get most of the the materials. Its the genetics in my stable were using and the knowledge and experience Ive aquired over the years as my part of the investment. Ill put in money, but not alot.
I would actually be surprised if we harvest a single bud.
Im expecting police to show up and question the home owners.
then they are gonna tell them they need to cull the plants because of some bullshit red-tape. If we harvest a single zip Ill be happy.
Check out Shcrews outdoor thread. He has a good soil mix in his thread. There are good threads abnout soil mixes for big plants outdoors all thruout the outdoor growers forum.
I spend the cash and get FFOF soil from the hydro store and pay top dollar.
ffof dont have too much pearl for sunshine? so much cut in that mix now
I use it faithfully. Yes, you can get a batch thats too woody and dry. It comes with fungus gnats.
But damn, it produces the tastiest buds ever. Never tasted any buds locally grown that taste better than mine. I may not get the yield from say coco, or DWC growers, but the taste you cant beat with FFOF soil.
I bring my old soil medium to the compost bins(they are now full so i have a mound next to the bins) excellent in the veggie garden,or flower containers
