like it says... what do you guys look for in a spot outdoors. i have racked my brain trying to think of a place around here but we have had a huge construction boom and all my usual spots have been dozed!!!!! anywho looking forward to your feed back
BTW im in SW MO USA (Ozarks) if that adds anything... iv always had i decently good idea of a place in the past but with all the changes over the last year i feel a bit displaced. I want to reevaluate what i consider as a good plot.
wwboy well formost a spot nobody is going to find----then concider factors such as how many hrs of light that spot will receive and what will it look like come fall--soil structure is important/what is growing there now????you cant grow next to some trees like wallnut for example---will there be hunters finding yer plot???? is a water source close by?? this is a few things to concider --also i suggest planting like 2/3 per plot----harder to see that way and if one gets knocked off by rippers/l.e.o or deer then ya still got some hope come harvest time----good luck bro.
word! we need a google app that shows the best growing spots on a map! lolololololololol!:roffl: :roffl: :roffl: :roffl: :roffl: :roffl:
Man I break my grows up into 3 catgories. 1 is stealth and gotta have it 2 is a little more risk 3 is fuck it let them get HUGE I just dont do any of them near each other. I look for a place no human would want to go.....near water but not flood prone. It must have lots and lots of sun We call them cutovers.....not sure if your up with that term Around here they will log a place.....3-4 years later its full of small tress briers and all sorts of shit thats no more than 6-8 feet tall thats where i grow........only thing is after 2-3 years you got to clear it out' thats easily seen fromn the air......in another words every 2 -3 years I find another cut over
...cutovers.... damn i wish we had logging around here. nothing but rocks and ceders. no tress worth harvesting in these parts. only thing we have around here like that is fire lanes and power line cuts but the fire department and electric company check those 2x year. but we have more lakes than we can shake a stick at around here with lots of back waters to boot. guess its gonna be hiking time come warmer weather. i hate trying to find a plot this early in the year, everything is dead and u have little idea on how its going to look come spring...
Here in northern Indiana we do corn fields. Once the corn has gown to about a foot tall, pick a field and a landmark and do a row count over into the field and start walking down the row counting your paces, never puting more than one plant every 100 yards or so. Record your row and pace count and in the fall you can USUALLY find them. The state police and DNR (Conservation Officers or duck dicks as we call them around here) have steped up patrolls of fields in the past few years, so many growers have abandoned that practice, including me after someone I know got ambushed by state troopers while snatching his stash. For this years grow site, I thought back to my teen years running my Chevy up and down back roads, trying to remember all those patches of woods and drainage ditches, Then I went into Google earth and did a satellite scout of the areas, this spring during Morel Mushroom season do a ground scouting and perhaps some prep work. Make the trip back at a later date, dig a hole.
My rule of thumb is no more than 1 plant every 300 yards that way if things go south all i have is one they can pin on me Super cropping and listing IMO will make this season PIE for me as i never practiced them.....Most all my plants will be small for out side that is,,,,,,-----4-5 feet but in a few places i will roll the dice and no shit i think out side with lsting and sc i can easily achieve 3 oz a plant ......im hoping way more but I will be realistic were talking quality buds.......30 clones and 30 f seeds is the plan we shall see though....... Dont call it farming for nothingotleaf-2:
i think your on to something with super cropping and other grow techniques. i have never implemented those on a plant outdoors. that does change where and how i could plant and grow this season.
Last Year I never did try a outdoor grow just could not pick a decent spot. This year I am going to play johnny appleseed and go to several different places planting just a few plants and move on to the next spot. If some get found oh well they wont get them all!! Cheers Teamster6
last time i did that all the seeds i struck outside were only 5 inches tall by the middle of october....... f*ck i hate missouri soil.... nothing but limestone and clay.... :flyy: :flyy:
