Yes, I start indoors under a High Output t5 light fixture and when they get big enough I put them outside to bud. It's a pretty essential technique to increase your yields and also be able to harvest all year long. Otherwise, your plants just start flowering right away if you start them outdoors and dont get as big.Dyna Ryda & kaloconnection,
Those are looking Really Nice . . . For give my ignorance, but do you start them indoors then put them outdoors ?
I've never grown cannabis, but as soon as I get my MMJ Card I'll' begin to acquire the necessary tools I need to begin my first outdoor grow.
For Now I Have Been & Continue To Read, Read & Read Some More On This Site,
\ooo/
Are you sure it's only 20/month?It costs me an extra $20/month running an 2ft 8 bulb T5, 18hrs a day and it stays cool so a small fan is usually good enough to keep the temperature cool enough.

A t5 light, some good seeds, and proper soil is all you really need to get started growing your own. If can you mix up some good organic soil, like subcools Super Soil recipe, you dont even have to worry about mixing up nutrients/ph/and all that stuff.
7 gal, the 10 are to heavy to move in and out, trying to keep'em smaller this yearAre those 10 gallon smart pots?
Ahh, you are right. I was just going by my electric bill never really did the math. Guess I didn't really account for being a lot more conscious about turning everything else off in my house ever since I got my light. I still think the amount of yield that is gained is worth the $45/month compared to buying weed.
Come to think of it, I just did the math and it would only cost an extra $17/month to flower with a 400w during the wet months. All these fucking helicopters constantly buzzing around gets me all stressed out too.
looking good brah! got any close ups of that one in the front left?View attachment 2611569I could watch them grow all day long.
I leave my vegging plants outside during the day to save a few buck-a-roo's on the electricity.LOL only reason I was aware of what your paying is that I am running 195 watts of CFL .... so I knew what the approximate cost was..
Lol just don't tell the wifey that you are using that much
I agree that the 45$ is totally worth it...
Running a 400 watt@12 hours a day would cost you approx 57 month...
So roughly $100/month for both Veg and Flower during those wet months... Still a good investment!
