These little plants have been in the ground for almost two weeks. And appear to be adjusting well, lots of lush green and I see more leaves forming. Big leaves to take in all that sunlight we are getting now. Its been really bright and hot, getting into the 90F's throughout the day. I have had to water them a few times as we are in a major drought right now. But luckily they are calling for a good amount of rain over the next week. So I think I can stop for now and let the sky do its thing. No need to add fertilizer, its all in the soil and should last many months. Hopefully until flowering at the least.

Really happy to see them recover, sucks I still lost one. But the three are coming along nicely. I think they like the soil I provided. I added some plain potting soil right where they are planted. And then fertilizer rich soil is on the edges and deep in the hole. So when their roots grow they will find it, by that time they will want lots of nutrients.
This part of the outdoor grow tends to go well, its more of an issue when they start flowering. With tightly packed buds they tend to get mildew inside, such as indica buds are by structure. So by going with a pure sativa, I hope the buds are more airy and resist any mildew build up.
But I do hope by picking genetics that come from humid environments should help with the flowering period when they start to show signs of too much moisture in the buds.
But for now and many months, until late summer they should be growing lots of leaves. Hopefully becoming some large plants.
The forth hole is not doing much, the seed I planted I have not seen break the surface. I am going to wait a few more days and then start a new seed inside, using those plantable pots I talked about in previous posts.
They are hard to see now, but those three plants should get pretty big in a few months I think. Right now they are barely a foot tall, but now they are adjusting I think we will see lots of growth.
Looking forward to checking on them after the rains pass through the area, at this point if I wait a day or two I can really notice the difference in growth. So I think they should be interesting to observe and I will see them get nice and big soon.
