thats actually all i intended. I put them out first week of may as little bitty seedlings that had already been stunted once from a night i forgot em outside and left them in rain in the 40s. I amended with some flood plane loam, ive put a little goat poo and compost down to water through. 2 light flora micro feedings at container strength. Back in KC i was putting decent sized clones out in early june usually. Had 4-5 foot bushes come harvest, and i fed heavier then i am doing here. These doubled in size several days outside and have kinda just kept on like that since. The f1's havent even slowed down through the heat wave like my others.
I moved back here because you can grow big sativas out here but i wasnt trying to my first season. It was spur of the moment to even kick off a grow this season, didnt even clear the plot til shortly before i planted it, and i amended it on the fly with local soils and homemade compost from my moms place as i went.
All good problems for me to have though i suppose. Ive never thrown sativa dominant F1 plants from seed outside that early before and def wasnt thinking about what a difference it could really make on plant size. Being a spur of the moment grow i wasnt exactly intending on creating as much work for myself as i have. Fall gets super busy at the country club with corporate events and concerts and stuff. And ill be on salary by then, and expected to work every single one of them for the most part. It's def gonna get interesting over here come fall lmao.
ive grown lots of heavy indicas here(ish, i am at higher elevation now) back in the day when younger. I put plants out earlier then this, and bigger plants, and fed them well. And they finished usually not a whole lot bigger then the PB f1's already are. Back then if it wasnt indica dominant i didnt even bother though. Id cull lanky and sativa plants even before i saw them flower because i used to equate sativa to anxiety lol.
Honestly, im not sure why im even bringing clones inside and starting a DWC tent, other then i originally said i would be. I dont sell anymore. Def wont here. What's the point on starting a dwc grow to pull a pound or two by fall when i might have single plants out there doing the same lmao. It takes me about a year to smoke a pound of flower. Ill already just be giving flower away come fall even if i lose half my yield to PM. And im not going to have the time to process and properly cure that much flower either. A lot will just be getting fresh frozen to make live resin and edibles later on im sure. Equal parts excitement and dread for sure.
