https://www.gorilla-cannabis-seeds.co.uk/outdoor It's still at an early stage for getting the seeds right to do well over here with our climate. The things is growing indoor, you're looking at about £600 per plant. Outdoors, you are looking about £1,800 per plant. It's a big deal.
Going back a lot of years , but I used to grow mine with the help of an old Phillips sunlamp. After we’d bypassed the leccie meter first, of course!...
This is why they have to legalise it soon. In a few years when there's good, solid, dependable strains for growing outdoors. Cannabis growers/organised criminal gangs are going to blow every other drug trade out of the water. Including Cocaine and Heroin. If you find a good spot out in the countryside, where nobody passes, you could throw just 20 seeds down and you're looking at £35,000 - £40,000. Obviously gangs will be planting them by the hundred.
Ha Ha, yeah I know a couple of lads who grew years ago. They said the equipment just wasn't there then and it would take nearly 6 months to harvest and the yield return was very low compared to what people are generating now.
Planted in the greenhouse in spring in between tomato plants in a grow bag works quite nicely apparently, so a mate tells me......
I do with my tomatoes and peppers otherwise the plants get too gangly and start to fall over. Bit like a cannabis plant you want to keep it wide and bushy to keep your fruit concentrated in the main branches. Courgettes are low growing plants so they just spread out across the ground. Potatoes are no maintenance plants, just stick them in the ground and water.
Mrs J & A friend have an allotment . They love it . I thought it would be awful . I was wrong . After a long day at work or what ever , going there and just doing a bit of watering , is SO relaxing ( this is not the time of year of course ) . Just my opinion , but then I am a southern softie
I honestly expected a load of **** off comm' to the thread Proper little gardening community, Alan Titmarsh Piskie seems to know his onions
You guys are to be fair. Every time you come up for a match, all the southerners are like little eskimos all wrapped up. I've been ****ing about outside in my shorts and hoody today. On nights like these, would you guys a wear a coat to go out, or just a polo shirt/formal shirt?
I think tomato plants are quite similar genetically to cannabis plants. They certainly have a similar growth structure, where the nodes sprout a new branch and if you don’t top out then you get ‘leggy’ plants where the energy required to make good fruit at the top is diminished.
Yeah. My mate who grows weed, he actually swears by using tomato feed. Right the way through from veg to flower. Once you're happy with your top tomato's you can bend the branch down and tie it. That way the sun will hit the tomato's further down at the bottom of the plant bringing them on too. So you haven't got a few big ones on the top and a load of ****e at the bottom.
I used tomato feed when I last did a grow too Hadn’t thought of that method with tying the tops down. That would work I suppose. I just top my plants out and keep them low and dense.
