I started an auto flowering plant in a 30 liter pot one March and took it outdoors weather permitting from mid April until May long weekend. Then left it outdoors in the pot. The longest day of the year, June 21, it started flowering and was ready for harvest by September 1. That plant produced 5 big solid buds that were 10 inches long and 3.5 inches in diameter when dried. Those five buds weighed almost 15 ounces dried. It was a better quality than any of the store bought pot you can buy. I never fertilized even once. Just good old water and sunshine. No water for the last few days and harvested after a dark night. Timing of harvest is key.
The best soil for growing pot is if you can find where stinging nettle grows, get a pail full of that soil. Nettle is a companion plant to pot if growing outdoors.
I remember hearing about 25 years ago someone got caught "baling" a few acres of outdoor grown pot somewhere around Barrhead. |
Family story is that my Gido and his buddies used to grow in the ditches around their homesteads. Even in his 80's he'd have a "scent" about him on occasion.
I wouldn't doubt those stories.
