the strongest advantage of going indoors is that you CONTROL every aspect, thus, you manage the season....indoors start to finish lasts 3-4 months for a desent amount of bud!

No lurker, if you grow indoors, seasons don't apply, its how you judge your plant. If you let the plant grow 3 months or 6 months, it doesn't matter ( providing you have the fertiliser, time, and patience to go for that long..) your "season switch" is when you decide to put your plants into the flowering period ( otherwise known as 12/12) so indoors, you control everything that goes on with the plant...

I have a major question to ask for outdoor growers, when you have a plant outside and it is in flowering period and buds are starting to appear and keep growing, what are the risks of rain? can it cause mold? is it ok to just leave your plant like that? or should you cover it with some kind of plastic? my partner suggests glad cellophane plastic wrapper on the plant, i do not know if it is wise, can anyone light up my situation? Thanks again

Cheers

hey total, the size really depends on alot of factors; ie: strain, soil, pots vs ground, ferts, and topping/lst. last yeay i had a few plants i started in april and topped alot and they grew to be 7' tall. i also had a few that started in pots around the same time that grew 4' tall.

well i've decided! here's my plan of action, ive discussed it with my partner for a long time ( ill start around the beggining of may)

going to go with this : germinate 4 DPS Original blueberry, 4 DPS 1#Skunk, 4 Manitoba poison

i will put each 4 seeds of each strain seperatly in individual pots with a 25 watt cfl hanging over 4 pots ( thats 3 cfls with 4 plants for each cfl) for about 4-5 weeks to let them grow on 16/8 lighting.

then im planning to transplant them into pre-dug holes in a forest where i will have cleared a lot of bush and new organic fertiliser will be already ready for the transplant. ( the kind of soil you buy from soil supermarkets with organic nutriments) ill check the natural soil for consistency, ill pick a good spot on a plane so the sun passes there with no problem... Ill have 2 different spots with 6 plants each ( each individually strain- identified so i keep track of their progress, and of course harvest time)

So tell me guys, if i end up planting 12 healthy plants, and substract 2-3 that will probably die, that will leave me with 8 plants at the lowest ( ill take care of them all anyway so i dont have to worry that much about them dying out)... Providing luck 30-50% of them will be males, so can i count on having at least 4 females out of 12 plants?(ill buy a magnifying glass to check out their sex progress, just to be xtra sure that no males get through)

If i transplant the plants after last frost the first of june, and let them grow until about mid-august, probably topping them to keep them short and bushy, they should be 3-4 feet right?

at the stage of flowering that should last approx 6-8 weeks depending on each one of the 3 strains, what should be the minimal yield and minimal females present out of 12 plants? ( providing that i take care of the plants regularily and shaking off the moisture each every few days. watering the plants, the basics, you know)

tell me comments on my plan please! Thanks a lot!!
