hey guys what date would be the first i could plant an auto flowering stain out side in the uk i know april is the date for normal strains but as its auto flowering will it work all year . would it work in a greenhouse if it was heated and as small light to raise the daylight hours ??? any help guys would be great as my freind is bugging me to find out ! thanks in advance :thumbsup:
alright mate, I'm/we're doing a run of 200 LR2 this year as an early quick yeild. We plan to put out these LR2 before anything else (non-auto flowers).
We haven't set a spesific date when to plant out apart from when the temp at night is above 10 degrees c constant.
We will be laying this run down over the space of a month, we assume we will be starting around April (although it could be eariler/later depending on the random weather we get).
If you are doing a personal grow of maybe 5-20 plants, I would highly suggest putting them out in May/June because the life span of LR2 is only 2 months, they will be getting the most amount of light if you were to plant at the time I believe.
thankyou for reply any one have any ideas about the greenhouse ????
ah right yea the green house should be good to work with. Even better if you can heat it to optimum growing temps.
The extra light will help, but of course auto flowering stains will flower no matter how much light they are subjected to. If you plant in May or June I think a "small light" would maybe be alittle pointless but could only help of course.
Remember to tell your friend that yeild of LR (if thats what he's growing) is very much dependant on the pot size aswell as light hours.
LR2 really need 90-100 days tbh - 60 days won't cut the mustard.
So long as you don't end up in a cool/wet/mouldy patch of weather during the main flowering period you should be ok.
Beware too that they reek vs LR1 - if you have a greenhouse full, prepare to be noticed. Trust me :D
so they take little longer to finnish than whtt it says on the pack ? if i wated to breed theses lr could i just plant a pack of ten in a big pot ( males an females ) and then get seeds ?
same advice as you gave me last season Delta, and you were spot on:thumbsup:i'm doing 2 small grows again this year of LR2 the first i'll start begining of may and the 2nd at the start of july. hope the weather is better this year. LR2 definately like the heat and light i found last year that they advanced quicker with extra light hours and more sun.Quote:
