Ah I see cheers. I'll plan a little strategy from now until the time is right to take them out. Again if risk outweighs reward I will ditch the whole idea of taking them outside

Just seen it’s your second grow.
do you still only have the 1x150w LED?
You realise this won’t be enough to sustain 6 plants that have been vegged for 3months.

Get your skills developed utilising what you have then extend and get bigger when you’ve maxed out your harvest if you feel the need to go bigger.
Personally I can’t smoke all the bud I manage to harvest per year using 400w HPS.

Yes I grew last year during the first uk lockdown(first ever grow) and it went fairly successfully considering I had no idea what I was doing. But now I know a little from that experience and now just asking on these forums to help develop this knowledge, hope you can understand

That 3 month veg is only an estimation, if it looks like they're getting too big I will cut the veg time down

Like I said you need to think about why you’re doing it.
me - I grow for myself and I don’t sell so whatever I harvest is for me.
Usually between 300-500g from my 400w setup depending upon plant numbers or training etc. Sometimes I only grow 2 plants. Other times I grow 3 and take some clones etc (like now)
If you can average 200g from your light every 4-5 months that roughly 500-600g per year. That’s over 2oz a month to smoke.
or are you doing it for other reasons? Which I won’t say.

So during that grow (I was 17 at the time) had no idea what i was doing. It was all done outside until early flower. And I staggered the 4 plants (thinking they would all be done 1 month apart) as I wasnt familiar with photo periods. So I pulled about 150g from the 4, and the first planted one equated to about 60% of the full harvest

A large portion is for me to smoke and a small portion will be undiscussed reasons

Keep yourself indoors and hone your skills.
I’m a coco grower too. Used to use canna coco nutes for years until i switched to Dutch pro.

In that case I seriously hope you hone your skills and stay indoor!
last thing you need at 18 is someone spotting you with big wavy plants coming outside in the sunshine.
realistically I’d be saying grow 2-3 plants this time.
stay inside in a tent or area that you’ve closed off.
make sure you perfect your environment and growing techniques to maximise your yield from your 150w.
then after a couple of undisclosed payments get a second panel and increase by x2.

Okay thank you so much for your input very useful info. I will keep it all indoors and will go for a 1.5ish month veg based on everything we have discussed. Stay blessed
