I have started my first outdoor container crop (a few weeks ago).
I have them under floros, and will move to 400W MH for rest of veg indoors, but as soon as the weather here is warmer and sunny...I move them outside to enjoy turbo boost of suns energy(they come indoors at night until it is warm enough here outdoors overnight). These plants will be flowered beginning the third week of April and should finish up by July 1 or so...I am growing one sativa dom. and one indica dom. strain. This will be my first out door harvest of this coming season...
I am trying to decide which of my seeds to start for my in-ground plants and my later container garden. Need to decide soon, as I plan on putting plants in ground shortly after last frost average date here.....apx. May 12 or so.
At my latitude I will harvest my in-ground plants between Sept 15 to end of Oct.
My second outdoor container crop will finish around Sept 15 to 25th.
I move all of my containers indoors with a dehumidifier or (air conditioning) for dark half of 12/12.
What a fun hobby!
