HI EDDIE

i dont have an answer for you..lol..just a question.. when do you have to plant outside in ireland.. is there special seeds for our weather..and am i too late for this year?

[ganjaFeirmeoir]

if my plants are fine then so are yours...chill..end of oct is when the real frost starts kicking in.

[ganjaFeirmeoir]

yeah your way to late this year man.!!. you should germinate your seeds at the end of feb and keep them inside or protected outside for a few weeks then let them do their thing till around sept/ oct..you want an indica dominant plant to grow well in our climate, u can grow sativa dominant to but dont expect much.

it might be a bit colder where you live eddie.. if you can try take them inside overnight.. or some clear plastic might help.. i have an outsider going as an experinent and i have been covering it every night.. hope this helps:thumbsup: i only noticed one day of frost last week but the weather is defo turning for the worse

Thanks GangaFermeoir (love the gaeilge). I panicked when i saw the frost this morning, i put a lot of effort into the low berry over the last few months and didn't want to see it ruined. Fourkicks i have the plant in one of those crappy greenhouses (lidl special, it was the greenhouse or a rubber dingy/arc welder/horse saddle on special offer that week, who buys their stuff, seriously, a welder who likes to horse ride out to sea to repair ships??) , it should be okay but i'm not holding out much hope for my Tundra (Dutch passion) plant. it's only started to flower in the last week, it was planted start of July and i thought it would have finished before now (might send complaint to them and see what happens, autoflower my pimply bottom).:hippy:

indica 1980 as gangafermeoir said start the seeds early, to plant outdoors. you should ask in one of the good head shops for advice for outdoor seeds, i only have experience of the leinster area, Most of Dublin head shops suck and just want to sell you something (cough Nirvana cough cough), but there is a very helpful staff in THC.
:thumbsup:good luck

good to hear its covered man...
im going to start bringing mine in every night as its getting colder every morning when i wake up......i think frost can damage or kill a plant pretty quickly if it gets to cold. im an inside man so im only learning as i go..any pics????

[eddieken]

Hey Fourkicks here are some pics, could the discoloured leaves be caused by frost or could it be a Molybdenum deficiency? what do you think?

[fourkicks]

jesus eddie that second pic doesnt look great man..
id post them pics in the plant problems section and see if an experienced outdoor grower can help you....i have never seen frost do that to a plant

also chech out the cannabis neutriant defeciency table..its a life saver
