Hello every one!!

Finaly spring is here and I have all of my AF strains ready for this years geurilla grow extravaganza. I will be planting at a few different locations, 4 or 5 im not sure yet but need to spread the growing out a bit to be sure i get some good bud what ever happens.

Would love to start all of the seeds of indoors, let them sex and then plant them but that is just not possible right now. What i will do is starting them all out doors in pots, we have a big slug problem were a live and the pots help to keep them away (will also be using some snail of, very effective pesteside agains slugs). After the plants have sexed and grown to decent size they will be replanted in the ground, to give them more root space and to be more under cover. The best males of each strain will be saved and the rest killed, planing on some nice crosses this summer.

The starins i will be growing are as follows:
Nirvana Sky, Super Auto (reg) 15 seeds
MI5 (reg) 20 seeds
Onyx (reg)10 seeds
Purple Mazar (reg) 15 seeds
Speedy Gonzales (reg) 5 seeds
Short Stuff 1 (reg) 5 seeds
Mystery Kush (fem) 4 seeds
Star Ryder from Sag not real auto (fem) 1 seed

The weather here is going to be crap until the weekend so wont plant them until then. All seeds will be put in to paper towels on thursday night to hit the ground sunday.

Wish me luck and feel free to just watch, comment or help me out along the way. Ive grown out doors for a long time but not done Autos on a big scale before. So all you outdoor auto growers please let me know about your experiences, tips and trix.:tiphat:

I love taking photos of guerilla grows so I will try and keep you all happy with regular photo updates.

Will update with some goodies from the woods after ive been out and about doing my thing.

:thank you:

check biggy's outdoor thread for inspiration.
It's been unstickied and is quite old, so you need to browse deep into the AF forum to find it.

Slugs: Use copper-rings around the stem - works every time!

Heheh yea that was a pretty massive crop.
Hopefully you will get something massive aswell. Just beware of rippers...
Wish you well.

ps: if you have a chance, I would like to see atleast one plant LST'd to run across the ground. I've seen it done in growing books like jorge's. The plant basically runs along the ground, and forms huge colas. Other than boosting yield, it obviously keeps your plants low. I'll try to dig up a pic and paste it in this post to show you..

That is a good way of doing it, heard but never tried, know that copper can kill plants but i guess a little bit around the steam works..
Will try it on a couple to see what happens my friend

Im a optimistic person, but im not in any of the Scandi countries. Next weekend will be fine i think, need to be done with the regular AFs Around mid July adn know that they might taken longer outside then inside so I want to get it going asap.

That sounds very interesting, just had this nice picture comming up in my head... The thing is that mold is a big trouble up here in the north so letting the plants stay close to the ground might be a disaster up here. Will see what happens, if i get a good amount of plant turning female and surviving the first 4 weeks I could do it just for the fun of it. Please post the pictures iv you have time and find them.

Just beware of rippers...
Will be, Will be, not my biggest concern though, the climate is the real ripper up here....

:gday:

Looks like they used a wooden hook. Looks pretty easy.

Heres another pic I found in the book that shows the bud formation when branches are grown horizontal. I would imagine the lst'd plant outdoor will show similar results.

Good luck on your grow. I've already got my outdoor autos going, 10 diesel ryders as of right now, all in pots.

For slugs try some diatomaceous earth. Place a ring of it on the ground around each plant. The particles are very sharp and will cut the slugs when they crawl over it. I also use a little triazicide for cut worms.

This should be an amazing grow, can't wait to see the result.
Do the seeds sprout easily when they start outdoor like yours ? I only can grow mine 2 weeks before transplanting outdoors and I'm still worrying about the cold / bad weather (I'm in France). I should get more optimistic if you don't have any problems in your north country :)

Copper in salt-form is bloody poisonious, but ordinary copper in solid form is at least non-poisonous for plants…

Check out this link;

It REALLY works.
Very interessted in the Onyx and Mi5 strains…will follow this one!

Thank you all for the nice comments and all the snail advice, hate them little bastards but with all of this info and my speciall "snail of" I think this problem will be solved once for all!!

Norwegian:The copper rings you linked me to look good but they a bloody massive things. I was thinking abou using paper clips as they com in copper, but they might be to small then... Will try it any ways as one extra barrier. That cooper is poison for plants came from the fact that if you have a neighbour with a big tree blocking your view, all you need to do is put to cooper nails in to the stem and the tree will die if you give it some time....

Reconer: If you are in France, dont worry mate, get that grow going now. Allé mon amie.

Muddy: Thanks for the slug advice and good luck with your grow, you did good last year hope this one brings even better bud your way.

Drago: Cheers mate, im keeping an eye on your grow, always inspiring, it is because of your indoor grow that i have all of these MI5s, the just looked so nice.

Nice one Bee, thats the one for sure. Loved that thread even though there was a couple of Auto-haters in there throwing the crap around... Outdoor guerilla grows really does it for me.
