Some strains auto flower, some start flowering once the days start getting short again I think it is, after the longest day of the year. Depending on where you live you might wanna wait a bit before you start your plants. But if you have some means of lighting, getting your seedlings off to a good start indoors probably would be a good idea. Just read up, theres a lot of info on this forum. A lot of bullshit too. But you just gotta find the good stuff.

Depends on where you live as to when to stick them outside. They'll flower on their own when the days get shorter, different strains start at different times. Check out the stickys they've got good info.

Probably not for a while. After the last frost I'd imagine. I have plants going right now I started the 4th but its California and I'm still nervous about starting them too early.

Well, apparently the farmer's almanac says late April for up here in CT, but I just watch the temps and forecasts. I start them inside and stick them outside during the day when it gets warm enough and bring them in at night until it's warm enough to keep outside. If you're just gonna stick them in the ground, then patience is a virtue.

I think your buddy started too early. They may survive, but if you don't even want to risk it, then just hold off.

Yeah I read that the last day of frost around here was around March 13, in pretty much every city in the Bay Area, except directly near me, when it said around April 15. But I think I'll be okay.

No problem. Don't take everything I say as exact truths, I'm still a beginner at this, too. Only grew one other year, but it came out pretty good. Check all the threads in the Outdoor Grow section. It'll help you out.
