OUTDOOR UK 2011 grow concerns and questions!

Planted in late April, early May in large outdoor pots, and I've got a lot of nice ladies on the go.

Most are in the early/mid stages of budding. Some of them are not yet budding at all (though they've all shown evidence of their "femininity").

Even those that are budding seem to be doing so later than previous years.

I'm particularly worried about my late bloomers. Some of the plants are very tall, and already the heavy rain and high winds have not been good for them.

I've taken what I can indoors overnight whenever the weather has been very extreme, but I've got too many on the go to build a greenhouse.

Questions to other outdoor growers in the UK:

Have you noticed any difference in the growing-rate of your plants this year due to the crap (cold, wet, windy) weather?

I'm worried about too much rain, wind, potential mold, and the possibility of some of them that aren't yet budding perhaps not even being ready by late-Oct.

I've grown outdoors several times, and have never had to face such bad weather conditions. Any advice, suggestions from other folks in the UK?

Morning guys. How is everyone this morning. Im going to try and squeeze a grow in before xmas. The only way I can think of doing it, is a 12/12 from seed. Think Im going to do the AK48 from Nirvana again(or try Space from World of seeds). Going back to basics. No hydro system and Im going to be using coco. Im going to stick with Ionic nutes. Got 6x600w for this run. Fingers crossed this will make up for recent disasters.lol
