I have scouted a few outdoor spots and was planning on starting a few seeds off real early (like now)
to use as Clone Mothers.
But the UK season may not be the best in which to rely on a photoperiod induced flowering.
Auto's, although more expensive because clones are not an option, seem the best option.
I'll germinate and propagate indoors
then veg them for a short time indoors
over the space of 10 days I'll reduce the light they receive to the same hours as the outside sunrise/sunset times
and gradually introduce them to outdoor conditions.
(6 hr Day in Greenhouse, 18 hr in House, 10 hr greenhouse, 14 hr house.
12 hour greenhouse, 12 hour house, 18hr greenhouse, 6 hr house.
24 hr greenhouse. 18 hr greenhouse, 6 hr outside, 12 hr greenhouse, 12 hr outside.
6 hr greenhouse, 18 hr outside. 24 hr outside, 24 hr outside
DAY 11- Move to guerrilla grow (permanent outdoor spot).
Auto's can go from germination to termination (harvest) in as little as 65 days - Or so I've been informed.
What time of the year is the best to get them into their outdoor spots?
They'll be 21 to 28 days old when they go out.
Frosts can still occur in late April, sometimes.
June, July and August tend to have the most sunshine
(but it's never going to be mistaken for Malibu).
