Low Effort Outdoor Grow

All of em are now in the ground in various spots in the garden. 4 are in a row, 2 are in random corners. They should've been inside longer but really it's fine for me. I hear all the time "oh MJ is so easy to grow! Really abuse them every few days and they'll bounce back so hard!" etc. so I don't see much of an issue with putting photoperiods outside to suffer abuse lol. They've got 5-6 months to recover and the intense sun, wind, rain etc. should give them enough reason to try and grow as big as possible. The summers here are hot and windy af, and they're going to be mostly blasted with sun for the entire time lol. They'll get a ton of water (I'll be trying nutrients for a few too) so I don't see it going THAT badly. I am trying to emulate my previous grow because I can't believe how well it did when I didn't do a damn thing haha. They were all planted in some compost we bought a big ol pile of. I should've tested for sodium but I dug far underneath and mixed the layer of sandy clay soil with it before putting them in the ground so hopefully that along with the recent rains will take care of any salt. I haven't sexed them yet because they're too young but I've got 5 cards to send out with leaf cuttings for that. I'm thinking I'll just do it to the 5 most promising ones since none are feminized (except the Northern Lights autoflower). I'm germinating 8 other seeds right now and have 4 sprouts (3 died while I was away) so even if these die, my backups have backups. Oh and I almost forgot! The cold and general abuse must have messed with their growth a lot because the fan leaves got all wonky and fused together. It's kinda funny since they don't even look like weed anymore. Not sure why it would do that but it's interesting.
