It's been a decent year on the coast in central cali. Peeps been planting outdoors for a few weeks now.Last frost was late march. Lights still a little short for some. areas. But overall gonna be a good year for you outdoor doggies
Down here it's been good for about a week. I planted seeds over the past few weeks and they're just starting to pop up now.

Good question, the latitude in question, and from which experience was drawn to give advice, was around 37th Parallel. You can see for yourself where NorCal lies, Bodhi's region, right below. Bodhi plants in ground as you can read in comments and as he states on Adam Dunn Show.

@kmog33 With respect, you said "April is absolutely too early to plant seeds" right here in this thread. I just wanted to set record straight for any individuals near that parallel, that is reason I initially argued so ardently against that claim.
As I said, I wouldn't plant in Los Angeles until May. Planting in April is a crapshoot down here as to whether you'll get reveg or not. I stand by every point I've made. Norcal is not the same season as here. You can plant 100 seeds the first of April and I'd bet at least half reveg, if your ok with that, planting is fine... Lol

I'm in the East Bay Area and I put these two out on April 2nd as a re-veg experiment and they are flowering but I'll bet they start to re-veg soon. We'll soon see

You see, the issue never revolved around Los Angeles, no one asked you about LA. Right here you speak of KY and say "April too early to plant (seeds)."

How do you like the lazy lightning? It's looks very interesting to me, I was going to pull the trigger soon.
I've only flowered one pheno. Great smoke, but not a keeper pheno by any means. Didn't get frosty fan leaves like my goji did. But a great smelling plant, and a good "wind down but still active" buzz. I can come home from work, smoke and still get some housework done. Then hit the couch and relax. The headband is very apparent in the first hour of the high, then mellows out. It made my spring schedule, and I'm very eager to see what my two ladies have in store for me come September/October. I'll post reports when I can.

Pretty sure Kentucky gets warm after la....and if you read my post that you so graciously provided, you'll see I was talking g about ky being about the same lat as la. Thanks for pointing that out.

It actually looks like its 55 degrees out and raining all this week. Just starting to get warm over there. April is 100% too early to plant in ky. My point still stands.

Growing plants in your "region" is just that. " Your Region"... Every single plant and its different pheno's evolve for their natural climates. Obviously we can't mimic every climate in our locations. The best we can do Is take the data provided lets say the farmers almanac and apply it to our "own" situation at hand. It's not a bible by any means but it is raw data. And it's all we have so far.
Anyway happy growing season to all and much love as always :eyesmoke:

@kmog33 Nice attempt to pivot from the original issue: photoperiod. You guys, from CA, told dude that, effectively, he did wrong by planting in April, and that is why he experienced pre-mature onset of flowering.

From CA, you've told us what can and can't be done in our region. I presented evidence of the breeder near the same parallel planting at/before time in question.

If I were him, I'd be feeling clearly vindicated, as one can see that the breeder of aforementioned seeds also plants around same timeframe around the same latitude. ✌

@Tangerine_ Plant hardiness zones take into account average winter lows, since we are not concerned with wintertime w/ outdoor crops, this really isn't our best guide. ✌

@luv2grow The issue at hand is adequate photoperiod lighting during vegetative seedling phase at a given time near specific latitude. I knew it to be adequate, here is evidence Bodhi believes it to be adequate as well ✌

Go look at the picture you posted of my post regarding ky being about the same lat as la Angeles... You did nothing but reinforce my point here. I'm not trying to argue dude, you just get into it way to easy.

In Los Angeles and Kentucky, April 1st is too early to plant unless your ok with high rates of reveg. Period. You're not doing anything but beating a dead horse, you quoted my post from last year saying the same shit. Lol.

You're ignoring the fact that northern California, where bodhi grows, and southern California, where I grow and much more like the season in KY lat wise, are completely different climates. And while my advice pertains to Los Angeles and KY, it does not pertain to northern California, Oregon or Washington, lol.

Kentucky would-be worse though because all your baby seedlings, if they popped sub 60 degree daytime, would be drowned this week. Lol

I'm at like 35 degrees, East Bay is what 36-7? I know I couldn't have planted anything until 2 weeks ago here, it was too cold. I have a ton of non MJ plants outside that just started showing signs of new growth last week, seeds I planted over the past month are just breaking soil. So I mean, I could plant beans in April here, more likely they wouldn't have germed until the heat came last week. Lol.

I don't mean to butt in on this deal. but where in KY are you talking about? Every canyon has it own set of rules there. Place can be urban to wild in a few miles lol.
He's bringing up a Convo from over a year ago I think, where I mentioned in Los Angeles and KY that April is too early to plant, imo. Based on reveg rate, i stated you can get lucky, but you'll have much better odds planting later, like first week in May for beans is what I go, last week for clones. He messaged me on Instagram when bodhi posted the pic of some farm up in norcal planting beans the first couple weeks in April. I guess it's been a nice season up there, but here in la, and from what I can see from ky weather forecasts, not a good time to be painting for us lol.

Snow all but killed a couple males I had outside. Well one 90% died. The other is still chugging.

This was this past week btw. Good news got viable pollen from both though.
Apparently it's been nice in norcal, but not here, lol. I literally am having stuff break soil this week. Apply tree is starting to bud :))

I understand completely. Spent a lot of time in KY. That's why I stated what canyon lol. But even photo period is site specific not lat specific. I'm sure you understand what I'm getting at. Micro climates dictate everything. Long and Lat are basic guides. That's all. I got into this late. So I was just trying to buffer whatever it is going on haha. I grabbed some popcorn and look forward to this discussion.
