I am an ametuer grower who has been studying this wonderful plant continuiously for about a year now. I have learned most all of her needs, thoughts and feelings. I'm passonite about what I do and take it rather seriously. I'm trying to start a new thred because I couldnt find anything on my fellow Alaskans and they;re knowledge as to where they have failed and succeeded in their quest for eternal bliss.This summer I have made plans to grow several varties in various mountain locations, in which can only be accessed by an experiecned climber/hiker. If all goes well, I'll be keeping my progress updated. I've got a blueberry/indica type varitie thats got this crazy smell and taste thats a natural gentic making it taste fruity similar to a blueberry taste, a few giant sativas which i grew in my hosue surprsingly lol this last winter, they got huge i'll post pics later. I've got some Tai, and white window etc. I've never grown outdoors before, and have been brainging storming like mad the last few weeks. I cant even sleep at night I get so excited! I'm struggleing with conflicting ideas as to a perfect number for the patches, as I'm mostly using seeds and I figure half are going to be male, then a small percentage lost to the elements, and I figure that at the absolute least, each plant yeilds a quater in bad conditions, so I grow an amount according those standards and what I expect in return in the way of pounds. So far so good, I've got all my supplys and compost and cured manurer from a local friends who maight know a thing or to about growing lol. The first 30 plants or so I'm getting ready for have been trained to lay horizonally resulting in a massive bush, I then plan to have a 6ft diamtere 4ft deep for these bushes to grow. Now Im just gonna take a stab at it, but I think if Im lucky Im gonna get like a 1lb at least of that mess. Well any thoughts or questions please contct me or post. -Alaskan_grown
