OUTDOOR 2015
- Thread starter aker
- Start date
Looking forward to the season. As for nutrients, fish emulsion ,seaweed extract, blood/bone meal go a long way, Time release fertilizer gets em huge if your into the chemicals.
If your worried about frost you may want to plant em in the ground. I feel pots being above ground are prone to frost damage.

just take into consideration of your area!!! i grow in bear and wolf country, does one know where blood/bone meal comes from? may be good for indoor use and some outdoor, but wont work for all areas... well we know outdoors that a fish emulsion of any sort will attract unwanted predators. If youre going to use fish ur best to just bury a few fish in the hole you plan to use next season and let it decompose, this will at least prevent animals from digging up ur plants
... Trust me no cage u make will stop a bear from digging your hole up.. just be aware of it

Yes I should have clarified, I too have had problems with animals being attracted to animal bi-products. Something to consider for sure!

yep i will never use the bone/blood meal again outdoors..racoons/fox and here in my area will dig up under a fence to get to that shit..i agree no matter what type of cage u got around it a bear is gonna knock it down unless u build a metal fort and we all know that isnt gonna happen unless u are growing in ur backyard and that is something i cannot do so its out in the bush for me..we have black bears as well but rarely..i grow 10-14 foot beasts with micrle gro..thats all i have access to in my area and i just cant afford to pay the amount of money of some those nute companys online..i live a very rural area of the appalachians..i do however buy some protekt,neem oil& karanja oil for my plants

Kygiacomo u are from LT? i thought there isnt a lot of racoons
im not sure where LT is..im from the applachian mountain chains in eastern usa..im at 38 n lat..the possums,raccoons,deers,fox and black bears here that will tear ur plants all to hell if they even get a sniff of something dead lol..i use use a wire cage to keep smaller game off my plants till they get about 3-4 foot tall and after that they dont fkk with them..then all i gotta worry about is the rippers,bugs and mold
I meant Lithuania Oww, now i know what you mean problems

Skunks are attracted to blood meal and love digging up plants in the vicinity!

Very simple easy to find budget products everyone should be aware of.
11lb bricks of coir - 3 bricks = slightly more soil than a bail of promix. These are great for guerrilla/bush grows very easy to pack (1-2 per regular size back pack 4-5 in a large hiking pack) with rough dimensions of 11"x11"x4". 1 will expand to fill a 20 gallon tote 80% full. Cheapest price I've been able to find is $11 per block.
2 cubic foot bag of perlite - Not necessary depending on local soil.
50lb bag of pelletized chicken manure - Cheaper than guano, but just as effective. Mix with soil and top dress when needed.
Bio grow or similar organic kelp, grow, bloom liquid nutrients - Kelp for promoting healthy root development in freshly planted starts. Although, I use kelp all year. Grow and bloom are self explanatory lol
Mix the above ingredients 50/50 with local soil, you'll be quite happy come september/october.

thats very good ideal..i always heard chicken shit was good but very high nitrogen..my dad knows this old lady that gets rid of her horse shit in the barns during winter months and we go and clean them out and keep a few 5 gallon buckets of this that i think i will just put it in my holes next month when we will go and get some and let it shit and composite with the soil i been getting out from under blown over trees..that dirt under and in the roots itsself is some awesome dirt to grow in..i am gonna be haveing a few organic things in my line up this year just to get a feel for it like 1-2 plants tops..may not like it so im gonna grow all the others same ole gureilla way i have for years been and see the results..i just want to grow the kill each year and im happpy
