Your initial grow might vary. I have a lot of bleed over from my last grow so I usually have some nutrients left over and I'm reusing pots from previous years and it does cost a little bit more if I need to buy new pots but still I don't really think it goes much over the $500 mark.

Yeah, it's traditional harvest season. I'm in the Pacific Northwest, so a plant around Mother's Day and the harvest is late into October as I can. I would have pushed it longer because we actually have nicer weather right now, but some little cunt decided to gank one of my plants, so I'm harvesting everything now, so I don't have to worry about it. 

 There are, of course, problems with outdoor things like powdery mildew and mold from rain. And for some reason, at least in the Pacific Northwest, I've always had problems with caterpillars for some fucking reason. Those little bastards love my plants. So, it takes a little bit more management and your environment is less controlled than indoor, but I personally think it's easier. And I still grow so much that kind of doesn't matter if I lose a little bit to mold and bugs.  

 This is amazing thank you for sharing a part of your process. I've always known outdoor is the way but you must have the room to do so (and a friendly neighborhood too) 

Fascinating that caterpillars cause problems; always grow more than you need to cover potential crop loss 🔥

Growing has been the one single thing I havent done yet for myself. You give me tremendous motivation & confidence to do this now.  

 Yeah, feel free to reach out if you've ever had any questions. I love nerding out on weed stuff. 

 For sure! Added you on SimpleX
