As for planting times (Im just north-east of you a little above Sacramento) Late March anywhere to May is perfect for seeds, and May-June for planting clones or plants that were already vegged indoors. If you start earlier than this, you risk plants flowering early and staring to reveg which will ruin your yields and make your plants vulnerable to pests and mold.
So much great information , mj. I have been thinking a lot, and more than likely will vegetate indoors till may. Mostly because you also live by me and may is the time when the long sunny days start to come in which makes sense to wait for. Really appreciate all the help.
Sounds good to me. Good luck. I'm sure I'll see you around the outdoor forums for years to come. It's an addiction all it's own.
I am more than willing to help the right people.. that being said there are certain responsibilities that we should be mindful of.. Respect to our planet first and foremost.. Chemical fertilizers and trash and rodenticides and pesticides littered all over the place is exactly how we shouldn't carry ourselves.. Respect to out neighbors, respect to our families and respect to our community is what we need to be mindful of.. RADIATE good vibes and surely your plants will be happier!
Yes I love nature with a passion and all life I'm using beneficial insects for the pest and I'm growing my lady's completely organic I will continue to learn as much as I can myself and also get help from others I have a opportunity to be a real difference in the world and put a good light on marijuana by doing it the right way and my public status

Here is an update to from my last post I received my seeds here are 3 plants that's taking off now first time growing organic. My Strawberry Blue,Sour Diesel,and Tangerine Dream. They are 23 days old from seed are they looking okay anyone.
I ran White Critical last summer outdoors(NorCal) and it was my favorite!! 30 gallon smart pot from seed started in April topped once and yeilded 23 oz by the end of Sept. Good growing EastBay, I see you got some advanced growers giving you some tips so you should be fine.
Wow! That's a lot of bud. That got me all excited now for my white criticals now. I really do appreciate everybody's input here. Thanks for stopping by.

They both offer great advice based on years of experience in your immediate area..
This is definitely some great information I've got two quick questions. I've been noticing a bit of powdery mildew and plan to buy the green cure. Thing is I'm 9 days into flower, about how much longer am I safe to spray this stuff? Actually the same question applies to the captain jacks for caterpillars. Really appreciate your input on this, I've been stressing on the mildew..
