The Practicalities of Growing

[growyerown]

Hi Guys and Gals,

I love this forum. The shared knowledge of this board is stupendous, and I am so impressed by the old-timers' willingness to pass along their old-school knowledge, not to mention the patience they have shown folks like myself, a first time grower.

I am about 3 weeks into my very first grow and can already see so many of the mistakes I've made......I'm really impressed by some of the other first-timers' ability and garden planning.

My situation is this:

I started growing 3 weeks ago and have five pretty little things in pots. I have quite a bit of privacy at the moment, so I move them outdoors during the day and stick them in an ill-fitted, yet well-lighted closet for another 5 hours or so.

My problem is this:

I am moving to another house in about 2 weeks time and am unsure what type of grow-room situation I will have available there. My largest Purp is about 5 inches tall at the moment, the others close behind.
I seek your advice: should I hold off on flowering until I make it into a secure, new location, should I take 3 plants and just plant them outdoors (I have a discreet place for a guerilla grow, if need be) and take the remaining two with me, fingers crossed, hoping for a sweet babe plant?

In summa: The plants can't stay here, and I don't want to ditch them, as they look too precious to abandon.

Cheers!
GYO

i would recommend having a room set up before flowering, because once you switch light schedules, you don't want to change it again. if you have to, maybe keep them hidden outside for a day or two until you get everything situated.
