The Camels First Grow Yo!

[atsar]

don't think putting them in the shade will help much,but have you considered cloning them and growing them indoors?could have some bud in 3 months that way

and they probably will flower around september outdoors but will be more like end of october before they're finished growing

[the_camel]

I *Could* grow inside however, i really would preffer not to for a number of reasons.

So if i just leave them be d'y reckon they will be ok till sept, and flower?

Seeing as tho they are in pots, i could just put them out at night and by the time i wake up, they have had like 8 hours light, and then i could just move them inside in a totally dark room?


Fuck knows, Seems my main option is just gonna be sit it out and wait till sept, but wont they be fucking huge by then?
A friend of mine planted the same time as me last year and his all flowered..
.. Positive thinking Go!Go!Go!

Any help would be great.

Peace :thumbsup:

they will be huge, bringing them in and out would work but it means you have to do it every day, any forgetfull boozy weekends could f**k up the cycle
if you leave them out the flowering cycle will only begin in sept you will still have a few months to go till they are ready and by then it will be too cold so either bring them in and out or keep them in or just leave them out and see what happens.if that makes any sense!!!!!!!!!!!

Well on the grounds that i am not that forgetfull and i dont have any money :P I think i will just have to keep bringing them in and out.. Which is kinda sucky...
Lets say i forgot about it for one day during flowering. Would that ruin my crop?



Anyone else got any ideas/views on this?


Peace

1 day wouldn't fuck things up,but too often and you'd be looking at the possibility of them turning hermie from stress

to control size you could always tie them down(lst)you end up with a smaller bush rather than a tall tree that way,and they can be kept pretty low using this method

[the_camel]

Astar you are being more than helpfull !
Well i think if i did forget it, it would only be the once

As they are outdoors now, hould i let them veg for say a futher 4 weeks then start the 12/12 cycle?

Peace :thumbsup:

[atsar]

depends what you want from them,i've found a 12 inch tall plant can triple in size after being switched to 12/12,i've also found that growing under 400w hps i can get 130 grams from a plant that was 12"tall when 12/12 was started,takes around 4 weeks under hps to get 12" but really no idea about outside,got a few outside myself so will have a better idea come november time,just bear in mind flowering time will be anything from 7-12 weeks depending on strain,usually around 8 weeks for most strains,so figure when you'd like your weed,take into account size,moving them around etc and figure when will be best for you

[the_camel]

Sounds like the plan for me is let em all veg to about 12-14" then start the 12/12

Peace :thumbsup:

Some little bastard things have ate at 2 of the plants :@ Pictures to follow later on.

Other than that no major noticeable change, other than growth.

Peace :thumbsup:
