i got my self way out my leage help

[richard]

i have 2 12 inch plants in my back garden one indica one sativa. one planted in the middle of my lawn. and one in a 14 lt clay pot with compost. i just got them and i do not know how much one one in the pot needs in comparrason to the one in the ground. i have got various feeds given from fellow growers i havnt used them yet until i get some advice on what how much with how much water and how often. i have got blood fish and bone. and i have got a tomato feed that is usposted to be exelent for vedgitive growth. please can you help me. the conditions my plants are in is they get about 17 hour a day light with about 12 constant sunlight its the end of june. what do i do from hear i dont wat to over tend to them. its 30c at the moment in kent

[leafy]

Show us some pics. If they look healthy dont feed them to b on safe side lol. The one in ground should be fine if its out like ones ive planted in my back garden in past. As for the one in the pot dont worry. You can grow ganja with just water. If your that inexperienced just feed water simple. Or just feed a little bit of tomato feed once a week. The one in the pot will prob need feeding a bit. Just keep a eye on it if it starts yellowing a bit giv it a feed of your tomato feed. People always reccomend you to feed this and that but truth is a healthy plant shouldnt need much feed. Look at my avvy that plant wernt fed once in vegg. You defo dont want to over tend to them! If they look healthy you dont need to do jack just keep them watered and let nature take its course :) leafy

[richard]

cheers mate i have taken your advice and let nature take its course.lol. i have changed one thing, i have placed the one in the pot on my roof for max sun light. the only thing is, how much wind can it take? its 21 inch tall and the stem is the thicknes of my little finger. its realy windy tonight will it be ok? please can you reply? nice plant how you make it so big

[leafy]

Well i dont know how big your plant is in comparrison to the wind it is taking. I know you say your plant is 21 inch but it would depend on the structure of the plant aswell. If it hasnt been snapped by wind now then it will be fine probs lol. It will prob be ok on a roof but its hard to say when i dont know what roof is like and how high it is up or if it has any protection at all. If i was you id prob just leave them on ground. If The plant in the pot is still in a 14 litre id repott now so it can have some space to flower if rooted pot out (wich it should have done if healthy). How is the plant planted in ground doing? Good luck if u can get pics i could try help more mate by looking at condition of them. Thanks for pm aswell, i dont do a great deal to get them that big, plenty of root space in soil (found the deeper the better) is key. Ganja likes to shoot its roots nice and deep. A deep pot will be more procudictive than a big round pot. This is just my opinion anyways, everyone has own thoughts and ways with growing weed. leafy

[richard]

cheers for replying mate. my plants doing realy well now mate its growing by the day the one in the pot now has 15 shoots and all the stems and getten realy thick its 24 inch and the one in the ground is almost 2 foot as well and has 14 shoots. one thing, my mate said the i should cut the big leaves off at the to so it will give more light to the shoots? he does have a point but will this hurt the plant is the a certen way to cut? what pot do you recomend mate? and i have one concern about flowering? will it flower as well in september? because i was thinking i could flower it indoors when i get it as big as possable. because at the rate they are going they will be big but, comon this is kent september weather is shit well usualy it is lol is there any sugstitions, whaere do you grow

[MoonLight]

Hi Richard, this is an interesting thread. Just a thought....that one in the centre of your lawn. I guess you know it will grow anywhere from 8' to 15' tall and several feet wide if left to it's own devices? I was just thinking is your site stealthy and so on? Also, in a few weeks time it's going to be putting out a very distinctive smell - hee hee. Good luck with them though. Peace.

[leafy]

Pmsl would love to see a pic of a big plant in middle of a lawn :stoned-smilie: leafy

[richard]

i live in the middle of know where, i would have asked for advice about hideing it if i wanted to. i have no nabours i live with just me and my 8 mates we rent my parents old house they pay for my rent atm lol. you didnt realy help me. i can do what i want with my plants can you give advice?

[richard]

to leafy,

my plants doing realy well now mate its growing by the day the one in the pot now has 15 shoots and all the stems and getten realy thick its 24 inch and the one in the ground is almost 2 foot as well and has 14 shoots. one thing, my mate said the i should cut the big leaves off at the to so it will give more light to the shoots? he does have a point but will this hurt the plant is the a certen way to cut? what pot do you recomend mate? and i have one concern about flowering? will it flower as well in september? because i was thinking i could flower it indoors when i get it as big as possable. because at the rate they are going they will be big but, comon this is kent september weather is shit well usualy it is lol is there any sugstitions, whaere do you grow

[dekay]

Dont cut any leaves off it mate especially the big ones at top, they grow the bud with their energy from the sun.:)

[leafy]

As dekay said dont chop no leaves off your plant buddy. They use the leaves to take in the sun and make your plant grow. Sometimes people take leafs off to direct light to lower buds but id defo not suggest doing this. Leave the plants grow natural in the way they want to :) As for the flowering thing, your indica plant should start flowering beggining of august and same might be for the sativa, Do you know the strains of your plants? Next month they should start flowering. I realise weather aint great in this country but plants can be finished outside mate. Your further down country than me and ive managed to flower plants outside before. You could bring the plant in the pot, in over night if u wanted but id wait and see how things go. Its a fuck about bringing them in and taking them out bla bla. Your much better off just taking care of them, tie them to bamboo if u need supposrt for them but they will prob be fine. Its hard to giv much advice when ive not seen the plants. Hope some of this helps mate. Oh and i grow in a greenhouse. Just helps keep some of worse weather off when in flower but they can be flowered sound outside. leafy

[richard]

thanks for the advice mate im getting a new pot and im going to keep it on the ground i think its done it well up there for all the stems, i dont think i will be needing bamboo. i didnt mean the top buddng leaves i ment the midddle leaves above all the bottom shoots. the one in the pot is dutch passion. if you know when they flower.

[nydiesel]

As mentioned above man, don't cut any "big" leaves off, they are fan leaves that absorb light, your plant needs em !!!

If you have dead leaves (crispy brown/yellow) just give them a light tug and they will come away. If your plant is really bushy at the bottom, you can prune/cut the 1st 2/3 nodes (cross sections where the leaves come from) this allows air under the plant. (can reduce humidity and % chance of budrot)

This also promotes growth at the top of the plant however this is usually done in smaller enclosures so as to get a large cola instead of multiple due to space. As you are growing outside, I wouldn't prune anything off and I would be looking at buying soil nutrients from greens horticulture (or local hydro shop)

Goodluck :) pics would be awesome.

Ny,

Dutch passion is seed company, should start flowering beggining of august i would imagine, whatever it is. Not sure on that like, most strains that are 8 or 9 weekers should start then. leafy

[richard]

its passion #1 the one in the pot i just found out i got them as cuttings i seen the seed box from my mate

[cannamancan]

Passion #1 (Amstel Gold) is a Cannabis Indica variety developed in California in the early seventies. Dutch Passion has grown this Cannabis strain outdoors in Holland since 1980. According to the growing experts at DP, this is an easy Cannabis strain for any and all to grow. With that, it also grows with long compact resinous buds, just what you wanted right? This is definitely one of the best outdoor varieties worldwide. Passion #1’s classic fruity aroma and skunk taste are what keeps the customers coming. Passion #1 Cannabis seeds are brown with a slightly greenish texture - this is quite normal for this strain of cannabis from Dutch Passion.

[cannamancan]

THC = 18.6%
Flowering period:* 6 weeks*
Harvest time outdoor:* end of Sept., 1st week of Oct

[adambomb]

well leafy n greenfingers n moonlight are t**ts,all i want is a greenhouse ,some jack seeds and some passion#1 seeds.it's their fault.

[leafy]

Get yourself one adam! Hardest part is putting the fukin thing together mine was a absolute mission! Being eager i started trying to put it together in the snow during winter lmao, was fukin freezin fingers couldnt manage the little bolts and instructions were useless. So i left it and went back to it in the spring. So only took 6 month to put together hehe. Best thing i done getting my greenhouse and 8x6 is too small. Gonna get another one (or two lol) once we have decided if were gonna move house or stay put lol. Adam all cash u have spent on new equipment i expect to see a greenhouse for next year haha. leafy

[Mr_Bimble]

I found some realy nice cheap greenhouses on the "greenhouse people" website - no decent gardening shops round here (B&Q doesn't count) so going to order one to put up over the winter.

Going to get twinwall so it's less obvious whats inside....
