One of my favourite sayings comes to mind.. "Better to be looking at them, than looking for them" ;) If I had the private space I would def give it a go. Ive had many successful yields, nothing to strong but sawl good....

in my opinion you may save a bit of coin for personal smoke. but the quality is not really the same as indoor. dont get me wrong organic outdoor weed can be amazing. but UK weather destroys all of your hard work eventually. I tried it a few years back. they was budding lovely and were really healthy. but a 3 day storm ruined them and turned them mouldy!. i was gutted to say the least. Maybe there are ways around this? who knows good luck. Cheers UKDD

All depends on your latitude;)

Autos and indoors are what’s mainly listed on here mate

Not on here mate unless selling dirt cheap. Pardon the pun. They call that bush weed for a reason. The light and feed / Ph is the main parts of growing to get max potency.
The natural way is too inferior in these climates sadly.

If you can write a love song to it yes. Otherwise fuck that.

Little project we have at the minute, the picture is like a stoners wheres wally haha. Done completely as a hobby, none of this will ever make our LB menu lol

Thats a lot of green!! Looking at some outdoor options myself this year so any advise would be appreciated.

Its addictive as fuck mate, you've got to have the time though and it takes a shit load of time, especially getting started.

Choosing a good spot is vital. Theres a lot to factor in such as the logistics, chances of being rumbled, the quality of the soil if growing in the ground, the amount of direct sunlight they will be getting, wildlife, water sources etc.

Unless you find good nitrogen rich soil (nettles are a good indicator) id suggest growing in pots. Buy seeds that are suitable for our climate, we used Dutch Passions Frisian Dew/Duck, Sour Diesel, Durban Poison and a couple of others i cant remember now. Dutch passion is a good choice of seedbank though.

Start the seedlings off indoors around March and veg as much as you can indoors before taking them outside.

Canna Nutrients/Advanced Nutrients are always a good choice, or you can just grow organically, you will defo notice the difference though.

Like i say, once you start its really addictive. We started off with loads of enthusiasm but had to scale back halfway through due to other commitments. If you go on YouTube and watch the likes of UK Field Ninja and a few others you can get a feel of what is possible.

Dont listen to what people say, theres massive potential for outdoor growing if you put the graft in and do it right mate. Its a myth that outdoor stuff isnt potent as well, the Frisian Dew and Durban blew our heads off, and after a good cure it smelt just as good as indoor. Granted it well never have the same bag appeal as good indoor stuff, but if its for personal consumption it will definitely do the trick.

Theres a shit load of stuff iv not touched on cos i could be typing all night, but if you want to know anything just give us a shout and we will help if we can :)

Great information mate. The soil around my area is pretty bad so will definitely look at using pots. I’m sure I’ll be in touch if I start struggling mate.

No problem at all mate :)

Wow thats awesome!
Whats the odour like on the strains you grow outside doing the last few weeks?

Absolutely stinking mate. That's why the spot you pick has to be waaaaaaaa off anywhere anyone would pass. Only things about where I was were wildlife

Seeing these and your post above is the final push I needed to do a bit of wild growing this year! :D

cheers for sharing mate

Get it done mate. YouTube videos help. It's all trial and error on your first but the next year is when you'll get everything spot on. Just pick your spot wisely!!

All my buds are grown, in the Great outdoors, in the UK.

Whats the best times to start a gorilla grow in uk and harvest ?

Germinate and veg indoors for a few weeks if you can, then transfer outside early/mid april. Different strains have different harvest times, late september is a good rough estimate though :)

Auto end of May, after the last frost, ready for end of Aug, would be easy for first timer. Now is ideal time of Year to explore, for a site.

Why not for sale my man? I would rather buy weed that hasn’t grown up in prison.

The buds will be loose a fuck mate, not compact in the slightest, zero bag appeal lol. First time iv done this as well, way harder than growing indoors!! Shit load of thricomes on the autos though, the photos are due to start pistolling soon i reckon :)
ULC

I agree I tried having just one potted in my garden before and the fucking bugs and wind fuck it before you even get going. Is fine for a free smoke but would not be happy if you paid for it. Having no control over the natural light is a big no aswell as it restricts you to growing only a ceartain time of the year. Its just not worth all the trouble when you can get a 5x5 kit for £200 and chuck in a discreetly placed shed near the fence so can cut holes for the intake and outake fans. Cover with a vent grate to look just like a vent for airing. One extention cable to the shed under the dirt or concrete slabs if can get them up even better.

Good luck with it all pal, looks can be deceiving it’s a shame outside isn’t appreciated like it should be. Real sunlight is underestimated and undervalued, I suppose it’s all about the bag appeal and crazy thc levels

Cheers mate, yeah could have the highest THC level going, but if it doesnt look the part its not gonna sell! Even though it all goes in the grinder, theres no reasoning with a lot of people lol :)

exactly my thoughts Guvnor. be lucky Gaz

Auto Durban Poison :)

Autoflowers are your friend! Or anything with a short flowering time :)

Check on YouTube for a UK grower called Outdoor Warrior. That will answer your question mate :)

A couple of good strains perfect for guerilla growing in our climate are frisian duck and frisian dew, both by Dutch Passion seeds.

Exactly this!

Love that you spelled guerilla right!

Get your seeds from real gorilla seeds and you will be fine. They're bullet proof plants developed by UK guerilla growers and tested in Northern latitudes.

About £6 for a feminised seed.

amazing! thanks for this! I think I checked out there site before but didn't realise they were from uk.

RGS are legends in the U.K. check out YouTube videos PANIK GROWS, that’s the legend behind RGSeeds.

Outdoor grows in the U.K. that look like it’s in Cali lol. They been doing it for over 15 years

Aw mate. all over this! thanks for sharing bud!! Not sure if the weather would have been suitable this year with all the rain (where I am) but next year i'm thinking of it for sure! love a bit of outdoor bud.

I do a small outdoor grow most years, use autoflowers, average something like 3 or 4 dry oz per plant, at 53 degrees north and 130 metres above sea level. Its easy till they start to flower, once the buds are there shake the dew of them every morning, sheet them down if its raining or misty. Never considered selling any though, just stay really baked until its all gone, save a fortune, definitely worth it, everything tastes better when you grow it yourself.

I hear you & totally agree, I have an amphetamine auto, white widow, gorilla glue and west coast og all thriving and frosting up nicely all outside growing naturally with basil,mint, coriander.peppermint and pepper as companion plants (all terps).
Couple of weeks left & I should get a nice Percy. Few photoperiods on the go as well, I hope to beat the weather. All natural all bless.
Is it best to harvest at night when all the terps are locked in? Just a thought

Harvest at the full moon too, best time naturally the plant has the most potency

Wow this is perfect thanks, have been looking after my herbs and alliums today so hopefully they will help a lot, my neighbour said roasting it and leaving it outside is good, I’m not so sure. Do you just use soil? I’m worried with nutrients sometimes not to mess with the ph too much, I’ve been prepping my soil today, going to put my seeds in a terrarium, because I’m behind by a season, I’ve had outdoors go in to indoors and make really strong plants too, so I’m keeping the faith

Thanks for the heads up, full moon harvest for my girls,
Tbh I haven’t really used much nutrients, tried to stay away. Initially I used biobizz (fish mix organic) then eased off as I wanted this grow as natural as possible.
For Soil I’ve used your standard Westland all purpose compost in large pierced monkey tubs mixed with chicken poop.
For the flowering stage I use chopped up dried banana skins full of potassium and water those in, works a treat.
All planted with mint, basil, peppermint & a pepper plant round the sides to keep the bugs away with my autos as the centrepiece, also try saving rain water.
I like gardening anyway I have a large allotment I enjoy, it’s all good.
Good luck with everything

That’s an allotment I’d be proud of :) sounds so nice! Thanks a lot, it sounds beautiful and I’m certain the herbs add to the flavour, this is gross but my sisters BF did a home grow and I couldn’t smoke it, where he’d worked it hard indoors and natural grow it kinda just smelt sweaty lol how gross is that! I’d take outdoor anyday in the right season :)

I staggered my planting this year, been smoking my own weed for a month or so, got some almost ready and some just starting to flower now. It's been so damp and cold I built a poly tunnel over mine, some big smelly plants now, absolutely love it. , some ammo and diesel and ak so far, germinated my first seeds mid April. Good tip about the full moon, never even considered it. Good luck guys, watch out for the dreaded bud rot,.

Thanks lovely, yeah hard to guess rain fall so they can get a bit too damp I agree, I’ve been looking at cold frames, but also don’t want them too hot lol. So happy for you you’ve got a little grow for your self ❤️

depends where you based then find a big forest walk for miles with gps then plant lol
You better off growing indoors start small, get experience baby steps

Outside all the way but not in uk , one of the best smokes I get every year is from Thailand it's all grown outside and if you know the right people and ask for whore ..lol.. you'll get proper bud not brickweed, my point is the right seeds ,climate and conditions will always win any battle , thai weed is strainless just the deep green and smell will make you realise why it should be grown outside

When i first read the topic, i was a bit puzzled.
Depends on where you live, climate, etc. But i think it is worth it anyways.

My 5 cents:
My opinion, and i am quite radical, is that the indoor growing should totally be cancelled.

I surely understand need and function of the indoor growing in the current mad world where nature is brutally 'illegalised', but plants that have never been kissed by the sun just don't cut it for me somehow.

Good luck with the grow brother.

Defo worth it mate....
I live in east sussex and has really good luck a few years ago with a outdoor crops,got about 3oz a plant and didn't use anything just sunlight. Went to check on them once every two weeks so didn't take up any time. Just remember to raise them up indoors an use a mold resistance strain that doesn't require alot of up keep..
Good luck and would love to see a pick after your first grow

Raise them up indoors? Like sprout them then replant outside? Or once they get to flower bring them inside?

Preparation is key start seedlings indoors pick a site that gets sun at least 8 hours or more make sure risk of frost has gone may onwards to plant out is a good bet if in UK.check out northern lights seeds by seedstockers great hardy strain and good price.

Don't use molasses to feed plants outside it will attract all the wild life and they will destroy your plants.lve learned this the hard way.

Me to its the sweet syrupy mixture they love it little fu..ERS.

I've never understood if cannabis is a tropical plant or not. Theres all this Jamaican and Thai lore but then you have Northern Cali and Canada.

It's not a tropical plant as such, it's a weed. Just like nettles and shit. It doesn't really "belong" anywhere because weeds spread fast and will grow (to a point) anywhere. It's usage goes back thousands of years so it's been around long before the Americas had been discovered - it's earliest origins is probably Central Asia.

This grower has some very legit reasons only grow outdoor real soil

I suspect that as long as the price is in line with the quality there would be no issues. You could also turn it into some edibles or vape juice if you were worried about the compition on indoor grown bud.

Spend a life time being stoned all the time. Seriously, hardly anyone knows if I'm stoned or not, its just me being like I always am :)

Someone told me about crunching a pepper corn to get straight. I tried it once, but wouldn't recommend it! Vitamin C is the tested method that will help. If all else fails, feign an allergy reaction as these can cause red eyes and slowness of thought and being distracted, its your best bet for an explanation!

For lethargy and reducing eye redness.. Maybe I can suggest, trying high content vit c fruits, such as oranges, mandarins, kiwi, grapefruit, etc. Also, soluble vit c tablets can increase energy.
The fruit effects can take between 10-30 minutes to take effect on these symptoms depending on the strains ingested and amount. Get plenty of fresh air and use deep breaths to flush in the oxygen and out the co2. Try and avoid this for more than a few minutes in order to prevent dizzying.

Vitamin C is the answer for reducing eye redness and lethargy from THC. Cut up some oranges, mandarins, grapefruit, kiwi fruit, pineapple etc. Consume slowly and enjoy. You’ll notice the effects of reducing certain symptoms within 10-20 minutes. You could also try soluble vit c tablets, which are also great for energy boosts.

eye drops!

You have a eye condition that makes yours eyes look red and heavy. Thats if you can keep a straight face while telling whoever this lol
Summer is a easy one pollen in the air from trees and flowers grass etc. Winter is trickier but I say fk anyone that asks you, "none of there business" would be my answer lol

To always be stoned x

Decent eye drops are a life-saver....if only they could help you remember the end of the sentence you just started...no matter how in control I think I am....those elusive few words kill me every time ? ?

Always be a little stoned.

Sometimes the paranoia of thinking you look stoned can make you look more stoned. The terpene alpha pinene in black pepper can chill out the effects of thc, making you less paranoid and therefore act less sketchy. I’ve tried eating a couple of peppercorns myself when I ate too much of MJ concentrates cannachocolate and it works a treat. Not sure how much is the actual effect of the terpenes and how much is a placebo but considering placebos work even when you know they’re a placebo, who cares? :D

Dont get stoned in the first place!! Hahahha. I'm being silly. Eye drops work for me, if i ever need to be discreet and the weed is running like a river of blood through my eyeballs.

Get drunk.

Such an underrated answer. Totally agree. Alcohol poisoning/overdose is somehow openly tolerated, but vape some high CBD homegrown weed and you're condemned.

If only your eyes are red, but you can follow what's happening around you - blame terrible alcohol hangover.

just be yourself, don't act differently when people are there ?

Don't try to appear unstoned. There's no point at all. Just smile all the time. But be tenacious. Look everyone direct in their eyes. Fear nothing. Fear is the mind killer. Everyone can have hayfever (red eyes). But not everyone can smile like an absolute boss. In hard times... hand out red-eyed smiles like Rocky handed Mr T right hooks. That is the secret. In hard times... take control. Smile upon all that are worthy! People will get used to it. They will start to smile and they won't even be stoned. THAT... is how we will change the world.

Yaaaas! Too right dude. The world can always do with an extra smile In it :)

Fear is the mindkiller! Yes! (Dune)

this was a "worth it" comment to read, thanks

hahahahahahahah - genius!! Loved that

To just be stoned all the time, may be?

logic.

i know, right?

We'd say... the glasses with the eyes painted on :)

Murine eye drops makes your eyes go crystal white, I’m stoned at work all day and no one knows

I always find a quick shower kind of snaps me out of it a bit or if I'm absolutely blazed a cold shower kind of shocks the body and wakes you up.

You can use eye drops for the red eyes which are the main give away, cover the smell with underarm spray or eat it to remove smell entirely.

Whats gonna give you away is behaviour, if you consume enough then you are inebriated, same with alcohol, mind over matter just wont cut it. so theres really only two options for this, either your tolarance is so high that you barely get stoned anyway or you consume a lower amount so that you arent actually stoned but rather just a little high.

Just out of interest who are you hiding ur smoking from?

Take a break off weed is the best way)

Being naked.

Definitely eye whitening drops.

gotta be careful with these they have rapidly diminishing effects

also many eyedrops have preservatives in them so they can sit in your cabinet. preservatives are killers and placing them in your eyes repeatedly is something to avoid.

I've been using eye whitening drops for years and heard an optometrist describe them as 'damaging' in an interview this week! They cause spasms in the tiny blood vessels in your eyes, pushing away the blood and making them appear whiter.....very effective but certainly worth noting, continous/heavy use - not a good idea ?

Do you mean over the course of a day or a lifetime? I only use drops when I've been smoking hard, get invited out to something or have surprise visitors coming and put a drop or two in to get the red out. This might be once a month, if that to be honest.

Just say you’re tired

One off is zero side effects basically but prolonged use actually dries your eyes and loops into addiction.

Wow I had no idea, thanks for info. Like I said I keep a bottle at all times but I rarely use it so I don't think I have much to worry about.

Think about the world ending that makes me straight

Eye whitening drops

Amen to them!! Optrex Brilliant Dazzle ?

Yes! Been using them for years... they were just called eye whitening drops back then, but advance all the time :)

Staying consistently crazy.

Some booze on me breath

Getting those around me even more blazed

Stay smashed ;)

this guy

Squinting! It’s like the opposite of being all loose and stoney

that bird is seriously sativad

More people kill themselves than people who are murdered. Tobacco, alcohol , obesity and prescription drugs are the biggest killers of our time. Just avoid those and you have a great chance of getting old and being healthy;)

this is why doctors get paid more than terrorists

Is that both North and South Americans?

It's The US so theres gotta be a money angle on killing these folks.

Thus the way to fix this is to make a fear based business out of the technical solution. So if it's say "AI diagnosis to complement your Doctor's opinion" this will catch on and save lives.

Yes if the doctors can sell it and big pharma markets the AI to the doctors.

Or we can just do it right.

"Mrs President during the last administration over 2 million innocent Americans died from a government controlled system that profits the largest political patrons in the country what are you going to do about it?"
"Next Question"
"Some guy in a turban ..."

How many more will be killed by the Brexit decision than losing the "dangerous immigrants"?

jo cox would be the first

I was just thinking that if we ignored terrorism but had generous compassion for the victims we'd save a ton of money and take a lot more piss out of the bad guys than we can with the military.

Depends what you mean by compassion if you paid out the victims crazy dough then some beneficiarie$ might get into the game.
