Very late outdoor project

[blackone]

I started a very late outdoor project this year - mostly because I never got around to it earlier...
Last week, around July 29-30 I put out a bunch of seedplants germed 2-3 weeks earlier. 2 days later the plants were found to have already grown a little bit - so apparently no transplant shock even though they were grown in the same container for the first couple of weeks and the roots were starting to tangle a little.

Slugs had killed a couple of plants but left the rest alone. I wonder how they look when I go back later this week to check on them... There is a real risk that they'll eat every single plant I have.

If they start flowering around 2 weeks from now and October is kind to me then I can hope for some nice mature bud. If not then it'll be a learning experience

Most of my plants are Royal Dane - an early Danish strain - while the rest is a mix-pack of unknown strains.

I've got some pics - will add them later when I find them but decided to post now before my stoner brain forgets when I put out the plants;p

The general area - notice how light the leaves of those trees are and how lush the undergrowth is. They get lots of light here.


This is the soil of the area - pure black humus. Sorry for the shaken pic.

Nice blackone!
I can only wonder what you will yield of those little baby girls(we hope)
How long does flowering take for those Danes?

Nice m8 the royal danes are auto flowering they grow fast m8

I don't think I'll yield much - If I'm lucky then I'll get 7 mature RD females and 4 unknown, with 20-30 gram on each. If the males show early then I'll probably just make a seedrun to ensure plenty of seeds for next season.
Everything depends on how the weather and the strain behaves - some years offer nice September/Octobers while others are really shitty, with early frost or just lots of rain and wind. At the moment the weather is definitely going downhill - temps are dropping and it's rainy and windy. This will hopefully change soon, although it's gonna stay like this for at least 5 days according to forecasts.

Slugs found them and ate everything - not a single leaf in sight just naked stems with slime.
I'll be back in force next year with some early genetics after scouting some more good areas, but I won't do it without doing something drastical about those bastards.
I'm happy I have my indoor grow to keep me happy.

Too bad man.Yeah i've seen slugs decimate a four footer overnight..
Esbe has some good slug traps made from beer or soda cans..for next year.

 

[blackone]

Yeah I was considering using them but got lazy - stupid me.
Hell I have some extra clones - swt #3 might trigger and get half-finished mid/late October if I get lucky, but main objective is testing if the traps really work.

I don't know where your locted.But in the Midwest, you can put out till the end of July.They will still have 2 months to flower.I put seedlings out at the end of july and had them grow 5 feet tall when done.

I tried the beer thing.Its not that effective.I had better luck with these slug pellets I got from lowes.I made a barrier around the plants with the pellets.
