I live in Central VA, and plan on doing an outdoor grow by the end of this month or so. The last frost is sometime from early-to-mid-March, so I'm planting around March 24. I decided not to bother with ordering seeds; they seem way too expensive when I can get dank seeds for free from friends or my bags.
Right now I have 20 seeds saved from the best bud (well as far as seeded bud goes) I've smoked in the past month or two. 15 of them are from a sack of what I'd guess to be Skunk (based on the flavor, smell, and buzzy sativa high), one of my personal favorites. The other five are from some sort of citrussy bud I had a couple of days ago. It was some of the dankest stuff I've ever smoked (and I've been smoking for a while too), and it had seeds. I can only imagine how good it'll be sensimilla
As a poor college student with no car my transportation options are rather limited, though I think I've found a decently good spot about 2 miles from my dwelling. It is alongside a fairly large river, just far enough inland so as not to be visible by passing water-crafts (not that this river is sailed on to my knowledge, but still better safe than arrested).
My basic plan is to pop them March 22, take them to the grow site March 24, and simply place them in the soil. There is lots of vegetation, and judging from discussions with other growers from this area, Virginian soil is fertile enough that I don't need to mess with it too much. Still, to be safe, I'll be checking the PH. I plan to water it twice a week until maybe late June; by then I'm assuming the roots will be long enough to have hit the watertable. After that I'll still try to water it twice a week to give it fertilizers, but if I miss a watering I won't have to worry too much since it's so near a river.
I'm going down there Saturday or Sunday to till the soil and set up a fishing-line perimeter for the deer, so I'll take some pictures then.
Any tips or caveats are most appreciated.
