Can I Plant now? WHAT DO YOU THINK? please school me with some wisdom...

March, 2013
OK so i live in the East Bay, Ca
it's been like 65-70 degrees the past few weeks, the last frost is listed as March 15th (2 weeks away) and the flowers and veggies in my garden are already vegging, some even blooming...i have seeds that are in cups indoors (just spouting as we speak), and i was thinking of getting a few clones to plant in containers tomorrow outdoors...am i fuckin crazy/impatient or can i plant clones outdoors now?

Haha i am impatient too man. I live in the South Bay, around Santa Cruz mountains. 8 hours full sunlight a day. I decided to buy a GDP x Blueberry clone from Harborside and i just put it outside. In my area last frost is suppose to be March 13

Dude if u can afford it i would put a couple outside.

if you did i think they might start flowering and then reveg

hell ya dabbin i grew some plants in downtown sc last year!
i think i'm gonna snag a few from the dispensary tomorrow and put em in 5 gallon jugs outside

I useally started them in Cup`s inside under some Tube`s a month or so before last night frost, then I had nice small Veg plant`s to plant out once the wetter was perfect and the days long enough (+13 hrs)

then you also have the choice to move em outdoors at day time on sunny days untill you plant em in the ground ..

I also prepared the ground/soil (Lime/manure/guano/worm casting etc) outdoors where I planed to plant em (removed other growth that could spread Bug`s and stuff and compete for light and nutrients) and I always tried to plant em in a spot where they received atleat +5 hrs of direct Sun (+8 is better)

Nothing wrong with a flower veg reflower combo.. as long as the root system is solid and can take the shock involved without a heavy frost, or solid/extended freeze

what strains for outdoor do you guys recommend?

id say throw em out, and just watch the weather. then put em in the ground last week of april

Man Ive been feeling the same way down here in the 805 but I just started my 2 batches of supersoil to keep me busy. Hoping to plant 10 babies in the ground mid April.

if u put em out out now i assume ur tryin to pregame it for some bud or are u tryin to veg thru and get super trees? in the north bay i just now stopped takin my plants in at night they are doing well. But no were near what they would do if the sun were stronger. I put them under 12 12 for 3 weeks or so to induce flowering and they stay in flower because we arnt gettin too much light right now.

i'm tryin to get them to veg into some large plants
i put 3 girl scout cookies clones in 5 gallon jugs today we'll see what happens!

i'll have 12 hours on sunlight on march 17th, 2 days after my last frost
so on march 18th, i plan on planting at least 5-7 more dank clones ( white widow, AK, GDP, P. Diesel, S. Diesel, Xj13, Jillybean )
happy growing
