Outdoor Growing Question

[gbk.xscape]

So I have veeeeerry easy access to clones because I'm a patient here in San Diego. If I just bought a few cones and planted them outside do you think they would produce much? I don't want to do much more than water it and basic necessities so factor that in too.

Thanks

You get out what you put in. If you just splat them into native soil with no amendments, and never feed them or look after them at all, you will get spotty results, and certainly much less yield than if you properly prepare the soil and provide quality nutrients and care for your plants. Clones of great genetics can still turn out like crap. Then again, growing some for yourself can be a satisfying and possibly rewarding experience that I think all smokers should try at least once.

What are some resources you suggest for things like nutrients and such?

[old school]

Well they sell some nututrients and such in the dispensery but I mean like a simple guide to outdoor marijuana growing. Hahaha I know it's kinda specific but if anyone has any good resources let me know.

youtube.com man! also, if its your first time just go buy some foxfarm soil. theres enough nutrients in it to sustain a plant for 2 months if they arent huge. water in some guano after the first month too.

[gbk.xscape]

Cool. Everywhere I have been reading has recommended foxfarm
so it seems like the right one ;]

I was talking to one of the workers at my local MMJ dispensary yesterday too and said just put it in a 5 gallon bucket from the start to reduce all the shock from changing pots so much. When should I start adding nutrients like the kind made for marijuana?

the best thing to do is spend $40 on supplies nothing beats a bag of foxfarms, bat guano, and worm castings

That Headband looks like a reveged plant is it?

[gbk.xscape]

Reveged? Both are from clones that I got from my local dispensary.

[gbk.xscape]

Is this something that happens often with clones? I didn't treat one plant different than the other. Both came from same store and everything. Should I trash it?

[YukonBikerGuy]

It just looks like its flowering whilst vegging is all. Some auto-flowering strains and/or rootbound plants will do that. My M1 flowers under 24hr light if rootbound, and the clones taken from these plants also tend to flower a bit while vegging, and maybe that has happened here. I wouldnt trash it unless it becomes unhealthy or shows signs of hermaphrodism.

K. I was just saying that because I could go pick up another one for like $10 if this one messes up or something.
