    First off don't listen to the flower times on the website those are for indoor. By that logic if u plant in April it will be ready in July. Not going to happen. Most plants won't start to flower until the start of aug and that is when the 8-12 weeks starts. Indicas dominant are around 6-10 week flower time they finish around the end of mid to end of sept to the begging of oct. sativas take around 10-14 week flower time putting their Finish dates around the end of oct to mid nov. for some this is a problem do to rainy weather. Being in Texas I don't see that being a problem. I plant on 4/20 every year makes for a great day. That is about 7 months of growing and they got fucking huge.
    What size pots or wholes were you going to use.
     
  3. Dude thanks a lot that helped a lot and i plan on just using 5 gallons. What do you think?! & so i just keep giveing them beg nutes when should i give them flower nutes & about how big will they get in that time??

    Hence the name Norcali. I planted on April 1 last year and had a few plants start to flower. I planted on 4/20 the season before with no problems so doing that aging this year.
     
  8. I know i might do that but if i plant them that early they are gonna ger huge befor they even flower and i don't want to have to keep feeding them all the time if they aren't gonna flower till like aug or sept you know?
