Keith's First Plant

[CaptainLucky]

A man out standing in his field! Great pic and not holding an umbrella, so that's an upgrade.

When breeders give harvest times, they usually do weeks (or days) for inside growers, and harvest month for outside. I realize none of it matters because they're done when they're done, but 8-10 weeks at 12/12 is not the same as 8-10 weeks when flowering starts with sunlight over 12 hours and getting less by only minutes/day. The day-night timing won't be 12/12 for another two weeks!

Thanks for the reminder Shedster, another thing to look forward to. Shorter days and colder weather. Smh CL

R U saying it could be another long October.

I just looked it up for outside grows and it said 80 days that's 11.43 weeks. So much for 8-10 weeks. Looks the same as last year.

Got some bud growing. They are starting to build up a little. Looks like more thunderstorms today and they scare the hell out of me.

A wind gust?

Just jerking your chain, Keith. Your plants look great!

 

[InTheShed]

Looks the same as last year.

Same as every year! If you don't want to get deep into October you would need to research fast flowering indicas. There are some that will come down in late September, but many fewer choices there.

Plants look great and with the storm!

You can always start them early with a led light and then move outdoors when the weather permits it. CL.

Start them whenever you like but they will always finish at the same time, just bigger. Only way to get them to really move it along is with daily light deprivation all summer.

Or autos

Of course, but much smaller.

Yeah you would need a greenhouse and black it out to start the early flowering but it’s doable. CL

It will still take as long. The flowering is determined by the sun if I put a flowering plant out early it will just reveg.

Not if you reduce the amount of sunlight it’s the same as doing it indoors with a tent except you do it with a greenhouse. CL

Or autos

I have thought of auto's, but they are harder to grow, I think.

 

[InTheShed]

From what I've seen here and experienced myself, they're less successful outside than in a controlled environment in a tent. Definitely can be done though. If you want to go that route I would veg them in tent and move them outside when they flower. Those are the most successful ones I've seen grown outdoors.

Still, not trees.

If my 83 year old mom can grow them I 'm sure you can
