Whatsup Ic, I haven't been around in awhile but am pumped about what I got going on. This year I have really stepped my game up. From years past things are looking promising as of yet. As a grower i have much experience but much to learn. Please point out my many mistakes and help make this year a good one.

The spot is some very deep woods with little access, my good friend and i will be walking in and camping in the area. The soil is shit and the bugs are horrendous but it will all be worth it come fall. The area is a very large forest and there are many prime spots to be found. I have some in mind but scouting will be fun. We are even considering accessing the spot by kayaks.

Soil will be brought in close by vehicle (promix bales) and carried a distance into the brush on foot. Holes will be large, approximately 30 gallons per plant, hopefully we can grow some monsters and hopefully the frost doesn't arrive to early. Frosts have occurs in recent years as early as September 12th. I fear this will be our number one enemy but the genetics we have chosen are some local outdoor strains. These include...

Avalon x Grizzly
Purple Pineberry x Grizzly
Juicy Fruit
Sweet Tooth Autos (keep indoors)
Superbud (keep indoors)

Im not exactly sure exactly How many of each i got but the majority are Avalon x grizzly.

This year is exciting because the seeds were able to be started indoors. Rougly 3 weeks ago my good friend and i began the seeds and began transforming a raggedy room into a suitable growroom. A 1k light was purchased and the seeds have been growing since.

The main goal of this growroom is to start plants for od, running plants indoor from beginning to end is gunna be fun too and something ive never done.

The room was in rough shape, its kinda cool because the inside is nice and clean now, but the outside is rotting and rough looking. The work begins..

The light was then jerry rigged up for the night and the plants received some much needed light.

The light is the cheapest 1000 watt i could find at the growstore. Mabey if things go well i can upgrade but for now its ok.

The plants must be a little tougher after getting moved around 100 times as plywood went in and out.

Some sweet tooth autos in about a 20 gallon smart pot 4 are looking good and ones a bit deformed. These will be keept inside and flowered out along with a couple of the other plants

Found a piece of hard insulation to keep things up off the cement. It fit perfect.

The walls and ceiling were then sealed with abunch of liquid nails.

Nice can't wait to see what shapes up. Where did you get all your non-auto seed and do you have more info on the avygrizz?

Cheers m8!

Things were left overnight to dry and the next day we began painting, flat white was the color of choice. 3 coats later and things were looking decent, never realized how hard it is to paint white over dirty plywood.

The autos happy in the new room, we plan on covering the floor in plastic so it make a trough eventually.

A lock for the door

Im really looking forward to getting them out into the forest but know there is much work to do before then. A lot of time and energy will go into this grow and I hope it pays off. The room still isn't complete and still needs a few thing done to it.


Feel free to comment and ask questions. I hope things go well but we will see.

Correct me if I am wrong but is the lock secured with 3 exposed Phillips heads? If it is I would say that's not a lock.
Room is shaping up on the inside. Looks to be a shiton of hard work. Thick bugs yuk! You outdoor guys really get my respect. Indoors is so clean and well....close.

Whatsup cheesebuds, i will be growing out some of the plants indoors. Altho indoors will be some petty shit compared to the geurilla grow im looking forward to it.

Lol a swift kick would knock the door right in, the lock doesn't really serve a needed purpose other than i get a laugh out of my combination being 4 - 2 - 0 (keep it on the dl). Also i fucked with my bud and told him he couldn't have the combo for a little bit, he got pissed.

I think i need to screw some 2x4s into the door so it latches right then it will be cool. Thanks a bunch for the props man a lot of thought and hards work. Indoor, same as a backyard grow, easy and well... close lol.

Well the geurilla things feel like there really starting to get rolling, the plants are coming along and we made it out to the woods finally. It was an erie feeling being dropped off in the woods and a quiet ride in, unsettling to be honest. The night went smoothly, the rain held off, and except for the black flys was quite enjoyable.

We awoke and began a long trek searching for a water source and then branching off locating the actual spots for the plants. Although no inividual spots were found an excelent general location was found. Thickly overgrown brush opening up to a large swamp in the middle. The swamp will remain wet and collecting water will be no problem.

I though i heard somewhere that swamp water has a offset ph and might need to be adjusted, any truth to this? i have no idea.

A thickly overgrown trail was located and can be sketchly accessed by truck, next weekend the plants will be dropped off at night with some of the bales, even just carried 10 feet off the trail they will remain hidden. The next day we will trek back to the plants and carry them much deeper in to there final locations. Or atleast thats how it sounds on paper lol

Camera wa fogged up, will get better pics indoors soon.

A small portion of the swamp in the middle of the brush. Looking at the pics it doesnt look much like a swamp but trust me we were soaked up to our belts just crossing a small portion. Swamp pots might be in order.
