I have two plants I planted january 19, I started them at that time because I wanted a early start and I don't have to worried about watering them for a good while. I knew when I planted them they would be stunted here an there because the temp. it drops mostly at night no to cold though, here its not to bad, most times its cool but sunny or partly cloudy other days it's rainy like to day its been raining most of the morrning an most of last week, the temp drops maybe the lowest it get around this time is bout low 50's with wind chill high 40's, most of the time it's between high 60's low 80's, sunny or partly cloudy, tomorrow an all next week it will be sunny high 60's to low 80's so I'm not really to worried about um at the moment, as of right now they are 3 weeks and a few days old, around 2 1/2in to 3 in's tall, besides for them being short that's the only thing wrong, they'll shoot up real quick in a few weeks from the all the rain and I'm planning on giving them a lil fert. when it drys up a lil bit. I'll get some pic's up a soon as I can as I can I really don't want to mess with um as of yet. :blsmoke: these are bag seed also but it's lime green good taste to it to. :bigjoint:

where are you from dont say exactly. but its pretty cold in the continental us right now and they wouldnt be recieving enough light to stay vegetating. they may start to flower then when the days get longer revert back to vegging. some plants will stay flowering. but anyhow its pretty cold out. you cant throw them under some floros at night it will give them a good boost. then you can put them out in a month or so.

look at the farmers almanac and the record and average low temps in your area for when the best time to plant

not sure what the weathers like in texas, but im really jealous if its already been 80degrees. im dealing with temps more often under freezing than above.....

yea bud if i were you id put them out on the nice days, 70 sunny and above. and keep em in during the night and lousy days under 24 hours light. this will keep em from flowering to soon,being stunted from cold and stress. if you cant afford good lights cfls work as do t-5s,t-8 floros. just keep the tops real close to the tops.

hey what if my plant starts flowering to early would it be better to just keep flowering...or convert um back to veg... I was thinking if i can keep um in flowering stage and clip the buds off and have a steady bud flow for awhile

Technically they should start flowering under 12 hours light or less. So the ? would be when they start flowering what are you going to do? You could clip buds but are they going to be finish. Good Luck
