Fem Seeds coming tomorrow Lemon Kush 
Germination date 4/18
Scuff with rolled up sandpaper
soak 24 hours in distilled water
Transfer to red solo cups filled with Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil...(read it might burn seeds but its working fine for my tomato seeds)
Grow under my Mars 300W grow light till June 1st ( 5 weeks from germination date )
Transfer to hole dug in ground filled with one bag Fox farm (backyard grow tha I will be monitoring daily)
Questions:
Can I put outside before June 1st without worry about early flowering (Downstate NY) Five plants will be tight under one 300w Mars light after 5 weeks I'm thinking? If so whats the earliest...frost is not an issue by then
should I start with a bigger pot than the solo cup with a hole drilled in the bottom?
Is one bag of Fox farm enough per plant for an outdoor inground plant....that stuff ain't cheap 1.5 cu ft bags
Should I use distilled water the whole time they're under the lights before transfer or is tap water OK. We have great tap water that we don't filter before drinking...chlorine issue maybe? I use tap for all my other seedlings but then again they don't cost $10 a seed (overthinking I'm sure)
Will get to nutrient questions at a later date
Any and all info welcome Thanks
I've done one other grow but it was years ago and indoor hydro....still a Newb
