Is not better any kind of container? Or maybe ya want be able of move the plants?
Best luck n wishesh…

Not sure I follow @MiG, Do you mean should not use buckets?
or are you talking about seedlings ?

guerilla growing is MUCH harder, for those who don’t know.

imagine something like nervous special-forces-rejects farming at midnight after hiking, crawling, climbing, wading, who knows what.

crazy is, as crazy does… :wink: :evergreen_tree: :eyes: :evergreen_tree: :flashlight:

if you can find an obscure movie from my homeland, it’s called “The Money Tree”, independent US-made, circa 1990… it features a funny guerilla-grower.

(i gotta put that in the stoner movies thread)

(…i think the 2nd part implies in-ground-planting is what MiG expects to see in a guerilla farm, since plastic catches the eye…)

Yes I think you might be right
@MiG The land is wet.
The buckets are above water level, so plant does not drown, it has holes to drain water
Normally grow in ground, this is a new spot.

Heres the sugar balck rose a day after planting, went back today…

Went to put the Mikado out tonight, place was so overgrown had to pull a load of nettles and brambles and had no gloves or anything, bare hands and a stick
cant believe how overgrown its got…

The planted Mikado in their new home

some pictures from my journey today dont we sometimes take things like how pretty a daisy is for granted, I know I do, had a nice chance to reflect as it was scorching (well mid twenties anyway) today


I saw a woodpecker and heard a cuckoo for the first time this year…
The bluebells are out too…

Nice curvy tree, kinda sexy : ) I see Godess Shatakshi Devi everywhere

I couldnt get the shot right then Godess put some light as a nice accent in the foreground, thanks mother earth and mother Universe

if it makes you feel better, out of about 30 seeds in 6 months i’ve gotten over 20 males & some herms, about 8 females. not a good ratio. i heard subcool claim colder temps for germinating favor male sex expression, but he’s said a lot of stuff too… hmm. fingers crossed for you man. :vulcan:

The weak Sugar black rose didnt make it, the strong one is doing good


The Mikado are not very happy in their new home
looks like Ive got some lockout and nutrient issues also some stress things going on
will try and get a proper ID of the issues when I get a minute and try to resolve

This one has fully purple leaves from the few nights of cold since it was put out
although now I think about it this could be more than just cold

Consider planting something that has a deep taproot, like Comfrey. That will provide drainage and help start some fungus activity deeper down. In combination with something like red clover as ground cover it should start to improve the quality of your soil on top and deeper down.

If you let the comfrey make a deep root then kill it, the root will rot and you will get better soil and better drainage. It will do the same job as your drill but it will leave organic material down there afterwards so your soil will be improved, not just physically moved about.

Best bit is you will not need to sweat to do it.

If possible try to dig a small pond near your plants, the frogs will never eat your plants or knock them over but they eat a lot of slugs. If the soil is that full of clay you could even use it as a drainage pit for your plot. win-win.
