First outdoor grow has started for me but i just did it i didn’t research and now im questioning so.e things.
but what do you do about rain. Im used to inside being a MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE controlling everything. Now i control food thats it. Im out of control any tips or advice? always appreciated.
Those look pretty good to me. I see you’ve got 4, are you in VA by any chance? You can always drag them inside during a big storm but that seems like a total PITA, I just leave them out to get wet. It certainly cuts down on watering, and honestly the plants seem to love it. I’m spraying for PM but don’t have any of that or rot yet, so far so good. Keep it up!
As long as you have good drainage rain should not be an issue. We had so much rain in June I did not water my outside grow.
Now I water in the evenings if we don’t have an afternoon thunderstorm. I am in living soil and keep it moist at all times.
Looking good so far
As far as rain just have to roll with it, I’ve only watered 2-3 times this year as we’ve had so much rain…
You may want to add a cage or stakes etc for support in the wind?
And spray for pests, I use Captain Jacks Dead Bug Spray and have had good luck. I don’t spray much (a couple times maybe), but I let the spiders live on the plants and they take care of most pests…
In fall time some shaking of the branches to remove morning dew is good (to avoid bud rot). I lost a few buds last year but not much…
And lastly a proper bud wash to remove dirt etc…
