HELP!

[Chronisseur]

I live in the Northeastern US and as of today Ive got 1" (yes inch) plants.
First time grower, second attempt this season. I could use all the advice I can get as I know nothing about growing let alone making the most of such a late crop!...HELP!:smokin:

Hi guy!

First off, I'm by no means an expert, but some things you should consider...

Do you have the ability to bring these inside either now or as the season progresses? Reason I ask this is due to the late start you are getting. If you are just now getting started, they may not make it to the end due to you being anywhere from 1-2 months behind planting time.

Are they in a place where someone else could easily spot them? This question is directed at how you will care for these. (i.e. daily access on your property or somewhere out in the woods where anyone could stumble upon these.)

When did you actually put them in the ground? Meaning, have they been there awhile and just not grown for a variety of reasons or are they just very recent plantings?

I know these are the most basic of questions and I'm sure others far more experienced will fill in the many holes I left open, but if anything, it gives you a start in answers.

Good luck either way and happy growing!

Hey, thanx for the help!
They're close and will be tended to as often as neccesary. I could potentially bring them inside but prefer not to, unless it would make a substantial difference. The seedlings were put in dirt 7/11 and "broke ground" 7/13
Thanks again for your help and patience as I am fairly ignorant to the art!(and the website!)

Sounds like things are starting out well for you then. The only reason I mentioned bringing them inside was due to the weather 3-4 months from now. Hopefully someone with more expertise with growing than I am will post here.

Really though, pretty much all of the knowledge I have is from reading these boards over time. Most situations seem to have come up and been addressed at some point on here, so it be worth your while to do a little more reading while they grow. I know I've picked up more knowledge even within the last few days that should help me.

Ok I'm losing my train of thought now, so good luck and hope you do well.

/New oz. tonight, sorry

Yeah, you're definately right! This site had me baking firecrackers, digging outroor gardens and building rubbermaid grow boxes all in the same day I signed up! (sounds like a commercial!) Thanx again!
PS: apparently Im using great soil too!
