New Grower First outdoor grow ever - Northern lights & Red String Thai

Enter the tunnel...
  • So all 3 Northern Lights have made their way to the poly tunnel for the next few months:

    They are all in different sized pots 1x30L (about 6.5 gallons), 1x20L (about 4.5 gallons) and 1x15L (just over 3 gallons) as that is all I have. It will be interesting to see which does best.

    I am also trying out copper strips on the pots to deter slugs and snails as I have loads of those things in the garden, anyone have any experience using copper tape to stop slugs etc?

    As stated in the title this is my first outdoor grow, so chime in if you can tell me of any common issues or pitfalls that can occur that are easily avoided or dealt with. Thanks all!

    Side-note: none of the Thai have popped up yet, so I will keep them in my propagator for another day or 2 and then decide if it is worth pursuing that avenue. On the plus side if they do not pop I have space for these from Royal Queen Seeds:
