I'm growing 5 different strains from attitude seed bank

Lemon amnesia
Strawberry fields
Mozzarella
Blue Dream
Mango sapphire

For example in my indoor grows I do 18/6 during veg and 12/12 during flower

The strawberry fields take about 55-60 days and its ready

But......Because My outdoor grow only gets about 6 hours of direct light and 6 hours of indirect light will that change the flowering time to harvest

I`d say 6 weeks man see how they look after 4 weeks of bloom feeding

When`s 1st frost due ? and when does it get wet and moldy by you ?

They're just getting started good! Outdoor plants seem to ease into flower.. Then race to get finished..
The race is on! Watch for mold, bud rot..Good luck.. nice grow!

I'm in thr mid Atlantic

Weather is shit starting early September


They started flowering around the 10th of August

So I've been fighting mildew and recently bud rot.

I ended up chopping them down today. And it sucks too because the strawberry fields just started smelling like real strawberries.

The mozzarella smells real cheesy

And the mango sapphire smells like minty mango

Don't be too bummed if it tastes like hay and remember to plant earlier next year. You'll probably get a mild buzz if you smoke enough.

If you plant by 5/15, you should be flowering by early to mid-july.

Maybe I'm wrong here, but flowering time shouldn't be affected by planting time. It'll flower when the plant gets enough dark hours. Dependant on latitude

Yes, the shorter days will trigger blooming so I'm not sure why his plant didn't start flowering until the 10th of Aug as he states above. I'm guessing that something, possibly the nutes he used, slowed his plant from blooming. If he had planted by 5/15 - 6/1 and used good organic nutes and soil, he should have started flowering by mid July typically. Something has seriously confused his plant.

It really depends on where you live.. on the northern border we get 18 hrs daylight..
I started plants on 6/1 they started flowering 8/21.. long days = short nights = no flowers!
They are inside under cobs now..
