Aloha from the BI. It looks as if you did not bother with stealth shipping, I've never ordered seeds before, any advice appreciated.The lineup for spring grow. Second of two orders from Seedsman. All packages arrived as ordered
Very interetsing, I'm getting pretty tired of hauling plants in and out of the tent to keep them in veg. I've been transplanting and putting them right out, from 8lb pots to 20 or 25lb. I've been seriously considering auto flowering seeds, but I've been reading that we can put regular sativas out about now and they will go into flower naturally.This is how I veg and it works killer. All it takes is a couple cheap bulbs strung above your plants and flip em on either at sunset or a few hours in the middle of the night and you are good to go. The lights are there merely to disrupt the night cycle. I highly recommend trying it out once your plants are a couple feet tall.
I get faster growth, bigger plants, and faster transition to flower versus vegging indoor under T5. If you want bigger plants, use big pots or plant into the ground with amended soil.
If using pots, I highly recommend a minimum 2 week veg in your final pot using the supplemental/outdoor veg schedule before you let them go to flower. This will ensure any transplant shock has passed and you will get a more seamless transition to flower. I never had space indoor to be vegging in 10-20gal. pots before flipping them outside but it makes a world of difference when you dont transplant the day you flip to flower.

And yeah, if you're able to just throw some lights up outside it's waaaaay better than hauling plants in and out everyday.Very interetsing, I'm getting pretty tired of hauling plants in and out of the tent to keep them in veg.

Got the ban hammer awhiles backWhat happened to Hawaii grower @Dyna Ryda?
Yes shit, actually. @757growin speaks the truth, ha ha.No shit? He's my local home boy from my area, damn.
I forgot to say, equitorial landrace sativas you can put outside under natural lighting much earlier than other strains. If you got a strain like Mangobiche from Cannabiogen Seeds you could put something like that out right after the spring equinox and it'll stay vegging through summer and wouldn't finish flowering until January or February. I doubt you'll be growing something like that, but you can kind of get the idea of how daylight cycles work here with different strains.Very interetsing, I'm getting pretty tired of hauling plants in and out of the tent to keep them in veg.

To funny he used to live in El cajon california. That's where I had my 1st garden out here. He told me all the good to eat spots.No shit? He's my local home boy from my area, damn.

He went to high school about 20 minutes from my house. He's 15 years younger than me and we weren't friends before discovering each other on RIU, but we have a mutual dealer/friend.Yes shit, actually. @757growin speaks the truth, ha ha.
That's cool you know him. He came over to Maui to meet me once and I hooked him up and gave him a small tour of my spot. He was cool. He showed me some pictures of his grandparents' property (I think it was his grandparents' anyway) back where you're at and it was very pretty country. If you're area is as pretty as what I saw you're blessed to live in such nice surroundings. I know a couple other people here from your state too and they're cool too. Tell your friends thanks from me for sending over the non-douchey ones, ha ha.
I guess Disney Land was right, it is a small world after all. It's funny how you can come across connections with other people. I wonder how many people we run across in our day-to-day lives that we're only a one person connection away from.He went to high school about 20 minutes from my house.

Aloha BIgrow,
You can order domestically from several places and not have to worry about stealth. Great Lakes Genetics, James Bean Co., seedsherenow, thedankteam, California Seed Vault (AKA Holistic Nursery), Sour Patch Seeds, etc.
I haven't ordered overseas in awhile, but I liked guaranteed shipping with the breeder's packaging. I can't remember
if I ever ordered stealth though or not, but none of them got snagged by customs either way. If I make any orders in the near future I'll go with Midweek Song and/or SeedBay. SeedBay would be solely for some GanjaRebel seeds and some of their server fund packs. And I've ordered from The Attitude, Herbies and Sannies Seed Shop in the past and they were all great besides The Attitude sending me fem seeds when I ordered regs on one of my packs, but it wasn't a big deal.
And yeah, if you're able to just throw some lights up outside it's waaaaay better than hauling plants in and out everyday.
And you can pretty much put indica, hybrids and most sativa dominant clones outside and they'll flower anytime of the year. Farther leaning sativas from seed and equitorial sativa clones and seed plants will stay vegging through the summer and flower in the fall just like a mainland outdoor except they'll most likely finish later than a lot of mainland strains. If you're growing sativas from seed for summer and want them to stay vegging either start them outdoors later (beginning/middle of May to beginning of June) or get them going indoors but without too many extra light hours from what the light hours will be outside when you put them out, e.g., if you veg them indoors with 18 hours of light and throw them outside with 13 hours of light they'll either flower or start to flower (most likely) and possibly reveg which will waste some growing time for you. Or like myself and @waterproof808 put lights outside and then you can just have the lights turn on in the middle of the night for 1-2 hours or have them turn on early morning or stay on from sunset into the evening for 4 extra hours and not have to worry about timing indoor light hours with outdoor light hours or starting seeds too soon. Good luck and keep us posted
