Upper river valley outdoor

First legal outdoor grow in Upstate New York.. Located in a river valley on a southern exposure. We get very intense sunlight here in the valley ..


We have six plants in total , 5 grown from seed and one clone only strain .. All grown in an organic soil mix and feed with teas . I went with 50 gallon fabric pots this year but plan on using 100’s next year .. We also will be building a greenhouse next spring .. Jadam microbial solution is made and used weekly . For pest/ fungus management we spray jadam sulfur solution also once a week


These are the strains we are running this season . I had a hard time deciding on what to run , I have many cuts in my library and also have a good network back in the city so I can get almost cut nowadays . I went with some variety’s from green mountain seeds mainly because I was looking for some early sativas to run outdoors . We are also fans of old school afghan and Pakistan strains . Over the last few years I purchased a lot of seeds from Indian landrace and full power selections looking for some new genetics .
First strain is from full power selections. It’s a Hopar valley #4

Hello from the Hudson Valley 👋 I'm really interested in how the Oaxaca x Panama turns out here in New York, I was going to buy those but instead opted for feminized "Purple zamal x A5 Haze" from Ace's Research and Development catalog. I was afraid the Oaxacan might not finish properly here in new york, I grew "Eldorado" by 'Sativa seeds'(aka Nirvana Seeds) which was a oaxacan dominant hybrid, it made it to a twelve week harvest but definitely felt the chill and stunted its final harvest.

Hi , thanks for stopping by .. love seeing other locals grows , yours is very impressive and that Durban looks like it will be giant for sure .. I plan on using a purple satellite male to cross to some hazes and other sativas to try and shorten there flowering times for out door grows here .. hopefully start that project this fall . Keep up the good work your grow looks stellar!
