Ahh so this is where all my northern brothers are.
Great thread you got going here ND, it's a pleasure to watch a master like yourself. I wish I would have found your thread a day earlier since I stuck my lady outside the other day. She's already 6 weeks vegged, so she's over a foot and plenty strong. I'm not going back till harvest and it's my first outdoor guerilla. Just testing the waters this year while concentrating on my indoor personal grows. We've had some great rains the last 2 days which made me happy to know my roots got a good drenching to settle them in.

My reason for finding your thread was Terracycle actually. I just picked up a few jugs and I was wondering how it works for you. I am 16 days in flower on my current grow and decided to go organic. I added my first application today. Is it a decent flowering fert? I also have never foliar fed before, could you explain to me the technique you use, the dangers, and the advantages you find through using it?

Great thread you have here and so many beatiful plants.
Now thats what I call Keeping Ontario Beautiful!

Beauty job eh!

Hey there TML16...thanks for dropping in...depending on where you are..you might be safe..I know up here in Muskoka we'll probably get a good frost Thursday night...I'll be checking the 14 day forecast from then...who knows..second week in May would be weeks ahead from past years..I might even grow a plant as big as Cap't Skunks...now the Terracycle product is something that I just started using...so what it will do for your lady in flower..I couldn't tell...I used it for an additive to my Musky Fish Ferts to get my plants going...I did foliar feed with it at half strength, mixed with water...I would check it though on a leaf..just in case it's too strong...I'll get a couple of the big bottles and mix some of it up for the outdoor season..it's the closest to worm castings that I can get up here...thanks again for dropping in...stay safe..

Looking good ND, Spring is early here also. It has been averaging about 10 degrees above normal.

A great way to start a new season!

good luck

I've had mine outside for a week here in southern Ontario. I do keep them close to the house to help them keep warm, but so far we haven' t seen frost. I am counting on having frost at least once or twice before I am fully confident to keep them out there for good.

Nice plants ND, I hope to visit up there this summer.

Take care

 

[WAMEN]

Wud up everybody...

nice to see you passed by to check your thread ND....

but what happened to your 1st account?

anyways, I germed my seeds at home..an took them outside afrer 52hrs... 12 degrees(c°) was the wormer temp in April 7...and I didnt see no sunlight for days... by night it was almost freezing out here.. but everything goes fine( apart purple leafs during the first week)... What I mean is..there are no big problems with a fresh climate at the begginning...

 

[TheItalianSeeds]

Yes no problem with cold temp in the first time...
They stay alive but grow slow....

 

[ND 2]

That is true guys but up here we can get a killing frost right up until June...now I am further north then most but it can still happen...but I do agree that it's the fall frosts that really do the damage...long story about the account..bottom line...I'm back...
VBG...looking forward to your trek north..I hope to make it pleasing for you...LOL..

BTW all...we are going to get snow here tonight until morning and there will be temps of -6 C Tuesday and Wednesday nights...you guys down in the TO and south should be fine though...I knew winter wasn't done pissing me off yet...stay safe..

ND

 

[WAMEN]

you're getting snow? fuck,I thaught that my spot was rainy and cold but hey...there are no limits for the bad luck.lol

 

[ND 2]

And we got the snow last night into the morning...nothing stayed but the temps are 1C right now...it's nice though in the sun so I put my 9 donkey dick out...these things are huge for 18 days old...I'll be sexing them soon...I'll get a pic up later...stay safe..

ND

 

[WAMEN]

what you mean soon...they're 18 days old?

 

[ND 2]

I would say in about a week they'll hit the cooler...actually the first two shots are of the Donkey Dick






The rest of the shots are just of work in progress...notice the moms are on their sides...they're getting so friggin big and bushy I have to do this to get some light on them...it's cloning time again tomorrow...I should be able to get over 100...enjoy and ...stay safe..

[Captain Skunk]

It looks like the bunkie if full ND!

It was nice to find more than bills in the mail this morning.

We had a frost warning last night. It didn't quite make my location but was definately too close for comfort....All the gals were moved into the garage and raised off the floor.

Better safe than sorry!

 

[ND 2]

Good to hear Cap't...wanna go head to head with a couple LR's...we got a killing frost up here last night...those two clones that I had outside for the last two weeks got nailed...it has to get much warmer before this old boy puts his fancy ladies out...so more cloning and site prep...all you guys in Ontario..get your spots ready now...because there's no bugs around..then when the time is right, you don't have to spend hours in the bush digging and tending to your sites..just drop in your plants and run like hell...stay safe...

This shall be a very enjoyable ride. So many clones. You have a nice greenhouse in your home.I guess a great place to sit and chill

Wish you good luck ND.

rgds, kov

 

[Guest]

you have an enourmous ammount of plants there dude... Good Luck

 

[ND 2]

thanks guys...Kov I do everything in a 10 x 12 bunkie out in the back of my house...I have power in it and heat it with a mini furnace...only floro's and CFL used so I can keep the hydro bill down...I start around the end of Jan...I cut many clones for gifting and put out lots myself only because I know that some will die and be eaten by different animals regardless what I do...so I end up with a very nice stash come Nov...alot of work..sure is...but the rewards are amazing...LOL...stay safe..
