luckily I have that covered, literally. As the pool has one wall of windows and sliding doors, it gets lots of sun, while remaining warm. The plant two years ago I named Shirley, it was brought inside once it got cold, and allowed it time to finish flowering. The greenhouse will combat that issue, but I always have the pool for plan B.
Other than that, I have been looking at photo period strains that are suited for us up here, but mostly just autos.
I have some Jack Herer that are going outside for sure, at least one, but maybe, just maybe, I will put two.
I have friends that are growing as well, so it will be nice to share the harvests. We purposely get different strains to have a wider variety, but still swap seeds so we can grow our own of that strain later on.
My buddy is an old school grower, so I am basically teaching him all the new techniques. While he still has the basics in mind, there are much more to be done than just drop the seeds into some shitty dirt and let it go. I mean it can be done, just not recommended. All the training techniques I keep talking about, are only things he had heard very little about back in the day, but its all mainstream now.
Myself, I am amazed how little has changed since I first started looking into growing. Main thing is autos. they gained the credit they deserve while potency and yield have greatly improved. Second thing I noticed is lights. Still can't really beat a MH and HPS setup, but LED,s are close. The use of CFL's were gaining popularity when I first started, but hadn't gone anywhere really.
Sorry about the novel, I get chatty after wake and bake
love your way of cloning
