Maybe you should try growing a couple seeds out before writing your book on growing next time.


SuperToker, I think the point people are trying to make is that here on IC, when someone says something you don't like or agree with, it's better to pass it by then say anything insulting or imflammatory. That kind of stuff is what brought me here to IC from Overgrow. Just because you're correct doesn't mean you're right, if you know what I mean...

Its not something I don't like or don't agree with. It is FAKE information. If you enjoy this type of information, please head back to overgrow. We don't need your type here. When someone purposely says incorrect things that would in fact ruin someones grow if used, it demmands attention. If you don't like it, filter my posts.

This might be of some help for some outdoor growers.

1. Don't over water your plants. Over watering only kills your cannabis because they will close their water pores if they feel they are drowning and it is imposible to reopen them. It is preferd to let them be without water. It will only make them more independant, stronger, and resistant.
Watering is an art learned by getting too know what you're plants want. Its hard too overwater when plants are planted in the earth and not in pots. Unless u have chosen a spot that has poor drainage and is too low too start with.

2. Don't tell people. People want to feel important and special. It's human nature. So if you tell someone they will only tell someone else so that person can think the person you told is important. And the chain goes on. Next thing you know the cops will show up at your house surrounding it.
True!! I would have made this number one and just left it at "Tell no one!!"


3. Don't touch germinating seeds because you will only kill them. if it is necesary, use starilized tweezers. That is why the paper towl method is only a risk, especial to newbies.
Paper towel method is just fine IMHO, I just handle them by the shell and try not too touch the growth tip.

4. Don't use seeds from a week smoke pot. 89% or so of what you grow will turnout the way it's parents did. So use seeds from realy good weed or from realy good seed banks, like SD's.
True. But I dont think it belongs in Top 10 Outdoor donts. Wording?

5. Don't over fertilize. Organic growing is the best, but I guess it depends on each pesons way of thinking. I don't know too much on this topic cause I don't use fertilizer, but If the leaves twist or fold down It's probably cause you over fertelized. Give it a lot of pure water. But don't over do it.
Dont over fertilize, nuff said

6. Don't under fretilize. Like I said, I don't use fertilizer so I don't know too much on this topic but I do know it's less common then over fertilizing. Just try to ovoid both.
Do under fertilize, until you get a feel for what youre plants want, this is trial and error

7. If you are a newbie, don't start with clones. This is for more expirienced growers. You have to do it just right . One little mistake can cause a big dissaster, like lossing them.
Clones are fine and so are seed plants that have been started indoors, hardening off is useful too acclimate them to the great outdoors though

8. Don't start too early cause then your plants get confused and flower too late and you get a smaller yield.
Anytime after chance of last frost is fine, in some areas the plants my start flowering, due too shorter daylength in early spring

9. Don't provise a bad inviroment. Make sure there's enogh shade like there is enogh sun.
Id worry about too much shade, some is ok. MJ likes the sun more is better.

10. Don't harvest too early or too late. 23% or so of the total weight of your plant will form durring those last two weeks. Harvest when more then 62% of the white pistels turn brownish. And don't harvest too late because your buds will lose potency.
This is personal preference on when too harvest.
