Hey all,
Been growing cannabis off and on for 10 years exclusively indoor. I live in Central AZ which is an extremely dry region that typically has 2-3 months of 110 degree days. Due to these extremes I was always under the impression that it was impossible to grow quality cannabis outside.
Luckily I have some amazing friends locally that politely told me I was wrong and had a great run in 21’ with a few minor adjustments so I’ve decided to step outside my comfort zone and give it a go.
Due to the climate I wanted to start off with some landrace strains to hopefully have a better chance of success so I was luckily enough to stumble across a few posts about coloradosativas and decided to give them a go.
Strains:
We’ll be starting off with their Panama and CISKEI with cracking 5 beans each and culling out the runts as we move along in veg.
Germination: going to keep it simple and just do the paper towel method soaked in distilled water and put into a zip lock bag. With this method all seeds should be cracked and ready to go into solo cups within 48-72 hours. Typically the type of water doesn’t matter much (within reason) but I decided to use distilled water as I had some on hand, as well as heard other growers on OG use it so figured I would give it a shot.
My soil recipe is essentially the coots recipe and then I added some beneficial mycorizhae fungi to help the roots grow to their full potential.
I also have two jelly pie plants about a month old going that I’ll be posting pictures on each week.
LET THE FUN BEGIN!
To a successful grow.
outdoor.
