INVERTED'S OUTDOOR DANK BAGSEED GROW 08' - 24 PLANTSHey guys this year I have got 20 seedlings at one week. I'm going to keep a daily/weekly update of my entire grow this year outdoors. It's June 9th (a little late I know but its gonna work?) and I have 30 more started in the paper towels, Have holes dug in the ground just need soil and time...heh So here is where I'm at, I'll post pics as the days pass. I'm hoping you will be interested and I'd love to hear comments and/or answer questions you may have. You guys think i'll have enough veg time before flowering kicks in right? any idea what date that may be? I am northern midwest. This is 1 of 20 I didnt want to take pics of all of em Day 2  Day 3  Day 4  30 Additional  How do they look for 4 days? <!--gradient:#00FF15,#2600FF//-->EDIT: Most Recent Picture (September 8th, Day 94 - 22 Days flowering)[/gradient]

Hey another daily update, sorry if I'm boring you but this is merely a daily log of my grow so I can monitor my progress and hopefully bring some of you along for the ride and help me with your comments!
Today I got to check my babies, they havent recieved barely any sunshine so they are stretching like no other! Im going to have to bury the stems when I transplant, they are a week old and are dying for some direct sunlight. All 19 are 1 strain. A very potent one but its un-named. I germ'd 30 more (5 dif. strains) yesterday and have to put them into soil tomorrow.
Check out the triploid i'm calling it!!!

You guys are going to be suprised when I bust out the new pics. I've really managed to turn this grow around after my grow partner has not been around to help me so much. They aren't growing vertically anymore really and most plants are only a few inches tall with 3-4 nodes already which isnt my best result but ok enough for me nonetheless. I have yet to transplant or see my older set of kids since i put them under the sun 5 days ago. So as soon as I do that I can show you the best ones. As for now I have a couple pics of the younger batch from three days ago, nothing special. They have at least doubled in size since the pictures were taken and added a node or two, for some reason I really let the soil dry out and they literally exploded with growth!? Go figure...Maybe the roots were starved for oxygen...

Day 23 Update!!!
Hey all. Finally got an update for you w/ pics! Sorry they are just cell phone pics but its the best I could do. My high ass forgot to grab the camera and the nutes... But tomorrow i'll get some better pics and post them for you but look at the growth difference in 1 week or less of them being in the sun, its incredible compared to an 80W flouro light... The new pots are gonna let them explode, they were quite rootbound and thirsting for more soil. They are 23 days or 3 weeks and 2 days old. Think I'm on par for a nice harvest? I think we still have 30 more days or so until they start flowering. I believe that will be enough time for some serious branching before they bear fruits! Maybe thats just me though I've only done this a few times.
I know they are a little stretched but they get 4 and a half hours a day of sunlight for now and are hardening but in two weeks at the final plot they will get 8+ hours a day. Tell me what you think!




Nice job so far?!

Hey guys what happened? People lose interest in my grow already!? Cuz they are taking off pretty fast and its a very exciting time. I can't wait for a few days to go by to see the difference, I gave them like 50X more root space than they previously had. I also gave them their second dose of nutrients (First full strenght feeding) and a light feeding of root stimulator to excite them into the new soil they have been craving. I see bushes in my future... 
Heres a couple pics of my last grow, I lost most of the pics but here is a bagseed, Strawberry Cough and some sort of purple strain. I also grew C99 and Bubbleberry x Bubblegum (Hubba Bubba). They all came out super dank I wish I still had my budshots! Oh well you get the idea.
Strawberry Cough (yielded around 2.5 Ounces)

Bagseed Plant (smallest besides purple midget - 1.5 Oz)

Purple Bagseed Strain (flowered at 5-6 inches! - 3/8 Oz)

Well they seem to be taking the transplant great and have started to burst into rapid growth, they were in 8 oz cups and now are in 1-3 gallon pots which will allow them to really branch out until I can afford the soil that will fill the holes in the ground... I finished transplanting the final 10 which brings the total up to 26! I've never grown more than 5-6 plants at a time before so I'm really hoping to yield a good amount this year (2 lbs.)???
Questions or Comments please!

dunno why they r showing so early.
good luck with the harvest.
should be some dank.
Thanks man, I don't know if i've mentioned it but im 23 this friday... Anyways I really hope I yield some good weight this year (high end goal - 2lbs.) So I can smoke for free until next season.
If the seeds I used for 90% of my plants (all the larger ones) came from extremely high quality nuggets ($60 an 1/8), is there a pretty good chance the plants I harvest will bare the same type of herb? Quality wise? Because they came from bud I definately would be proud to harvest!
I am assuming these are good genetics because they have a very high rate of growth and everything about them seems so uniform compared to bagseeds i've grown before. They resemble the plants I grew years ago that were from a breeder (Stawberry Cough), but they came out of many bags of dank I bought just for the seeds (3-4 per 1/8) and they are all one strain, except for the smaller girls I got. I have some extremely Indica ladies and 1 little sativa!
So basically I want to know if they will be of equal dankage compared to the bud I smoked to get these seeds!?
This was my Strawberry Cough (almost maroon tint of the plant around harvest time)

So I'm not taking the chances of animals getting any of my nuggage so i'm on a master plan to use these devices I rigged up to dispell any intruders who plan to make a meal of my precious!

Happy Birthday to ME!!!
My friend has a steady Gravity hook and found 2 beans in his bag and he knew I wanted them so he gave them to me and I germinated them and put them into soil tonight!
I set up a nice plot not too far from my house for them so I can put them out when they show their faces even though they only have 2-4 weeks of veg before flower begins, the 1/2 oz or so I get from them will be frosty! 

Computibator FTW!!!

Ok so I don't know what the funk is going on here but so far my largest plants are ALL FEMALE! What the hell is up with that, there is one questionable one but its too early but 13+ are definately shooting hairs out!!!
They are all about 2 feet tall a couple even taller than that and still have a few weeks left before flowering! I'm gonna have so much weed this year i've never done this well before...
This strain has performed unbelievably in the provided conditions! I almost wish I had a male so that i could pollinate some branches because these seem to be an early flowering strain, and I have a 13-14 CONFIRMED FEMALES SO FAR!!! 
BTW these are pics of FEMALES ONLY....HAHA!





One that has been Topped...

Thanks guys I'm really priding myself on this grow!!! It's by far the largest and healthiest crops I've ever had. I only have 1 plant so far that is quesionable that is probably a male. The rest FEMALES.

Do you have some little balls at each node?
No they don't really look like balls, they are more of a spike looking pear shape, and have a white hair protruding from the pointy end of the spike. Dont confuse the spikes with the STIPULES which are at every node directly on the main stem. The Calyx and Stigma grow inbetween the Stipule and the Secondary Branch...
As seen on the right side in this picture

Just another shot of them today, Should be sunny again tomorrow hopefully, they need the sun.
It seems like they are starting to stretch...Could this be an indicator that flowering is going to begin soon?

Okay so we're still in the process of getting the rest of them in the ground... We got the biggest ones the first day, the next biggest today and tomorrow or the next day we will put the final 8 in the ground. They don't require quite as much rootspace so medium sized holes will do for them.
These things are going to explode now that they have basically unlimited root space...even the big ones that have only been in the ground for 3 days now are much happier looking and slightly larger already...
Pics of the garden...  P.S. not all of them were in the holes when I took the pictures, that was before we started working today.



4 tops on this one...

They are starting to get pretty big (these are about 2 1/2 feet)

I'll let the pics speak for me... They've grown 6 inches in the first week since they were transplanted into the ground! Now my hopes of a good yield are actually rising. I mean with 10 females around 2 - 3 Feet, and another 12 from 1.5 - 2 Feet, I'm guessing to yield at least 2 Pounds. Possibly up to 4 if they keep exploding...hehe
P.S. It got so hot and a couple of the potted plants dried up so much in just 2 days that they are wilted and yellowing on the bottom, I gave them and the rest of the ladies a nice drink and feeding of 15-30-15 nutes. They should be perked up by the afternoon tomorrow I would think.

I finally got my Gravity seedlings going! yay! For about 2 weeks or less they only had the Coteleydon leaves and the first true sets of leaves... I gave them the new nutrients I bought them (10-15-10 Liquid W/ Micronutes) And within ONLY 2 Days, This is what they have become! It's such good shit!


What do you think? I know it's only going to yield like 5 grams but hey, I know that it came from the dankest bud I've ever gotten seeds out of so I'm willing to harvest the least amount possible from these couple girls. For now I have them under 30 Watt CFL's and am thinking about starting them on a 13/11 light schedule to induce flowering for a couple weeks then put them outside to finish.
My other option is to keep them on 24 hours until my other plants are fully flowering then put it outside so it gets a little bit longer to veg before it flowers out.
P.S. Only 1 of my plants is fully into flowering, with a noticable gathering of stigmas/calyx's at the top of one of my potted plants that is going in the ground tomorrow, hopefully it is still a good choice rather than flowering it rootbound in the pot....

Here are some more pics of a few different ladies at the garden plot. Also my super bushy topped plant and the little Gravity seedlings, that are separate from the garden, along with a list of how many of what I have going!
I have 10 plants that are either at this point or larger

10 More that are this Large!

And a few smaller ladies around 1 foot (not pic-worthy)
Here's some more of the SEXY GIRLS!

Top to one of the nice Bushes (yes they are finally bushing out!)

Yet another gorgeous top... 

2 Gravity Seedlings (Super Dank)


This plant was down to 2 FAN LEAVES at one point due to a terrible Aphid infestation that I took care of... Looks like topping made a crazy difference, this is BY FAR THE BUSHIEST PLANT!!!



I'm trying not to transplant this plant, Do you think I can flower this in this existing pot, it is 1 gallon full to the top, its not rootbound yet and is just beginning to flower...I've seen other people grow 6-7 footers in 4-5 gallons so I think i'm OK but what do you guys think? (1.5 Ft)
