  2. Your hydro plant is a beast! Do you have to light dep your plants or will they finish before that’s needed? I’m trying to figure this early season run out with photoperiods. Thanks.

  3. for security reasons i hv to grw a fairly short plnt so i grw a bush rather than the x-mas tree shape..i used supplemental light for about 2wks then turned it off so that the plnts would flwr and shw sex..if you're doing clones like the big un they'll strt to flwr in a day or two so you gotta plan accordingly..end of mar at the latest the big un will be ready for hrvst,,,strt of mar cuts should be clones by then fully veg'd and ready to go outdrs and finish mid may..june-aug no outdr grw..too hot here in the desert..strt again in sept

  4. Ya i need to stay under the fence line for my own peace of mind. I threw some out that were started from seed and they showed sex, i was just making sure i wasnt gonaa have to light dep. So clones outside in March will be finished by May? I read Brass's guide. I just wanna ask cause its more than 12 outside from March til Fall. trying to figure the outdoor light cycle stuff. Im inland so we get the cooler night weather in winter so its not as favorable as you desert guys and those on the coast. thanks for the help.

  5. Jan 1st = Harvest, Take new cuts, Set out vegged plants.
    March 15th = Same
    June 1st = Same
    Oct 15th = Same.

    This gives the 3 off season sets a full 10 weeks to flower.
    June set gets the 2 extra veg months of June and July and they drop into flower in Early August.

    Works well for most Indica and Hybrids. If I've got a heavy leaning Sativa it can run 13-15 weeks and those I find a more remote spot in the yard for where I can just let them run on as long as needed.
    As long as it doesn't heavy frost or freeze most strains will do OK in a So Cal winter.

  6. Thank you I told my buddies there’s a guy running all year, We just need a little extra weather protection. I was second guessing having these guys set all these plants out. I wasn’t sure with outside 12/12 in March. It will be nice to skip summer here and have an early harvest. Thanks for the great info. Next up hash caps... to the moon

  10. End of last nights storm was warm and wet then it cleared up and the temp plunged and it's like a giant block of Ice outside. Couldn't even stomp a footprint into it. Slicker then greased snot out there. Damn near fell on my ass in just 2 steps.
    Sun is out but not making a dent in it yet. I can see a few cars crawling past the house at dead slow and it's flat here. Steep downhill with lots of turns for a half mile just past us and I'll bet it's a huge sheet of Glare Ice. No way I'd try that hill yet even with chains or studded tires.

  11. I finally got some plants going again. My indoor plant is doing much better than the plants outside. The storm really slowed things down for the ones out in the cold.
