Trying to start a few plants outdoors. My friend gave me some seeds which he believes is white rhino. Located on Oahu.
Ive been reading as much as possible but am still confused on soil aspect.
Do I make my own? Buy FF ocean forest or would some HD bought stuff with amendments be better?

I'd love to hear what everyone in Hawaii is using

I jus been using Black gold organic soil. Had good results with it. I bought the soil from ace hardware. It’s the closest place to where I live where they sell decent soil. But you could try using coco coir. It holds moisture a lot better but drains good. Jus add some perlite with da coco. I think coco is a lot better cuz it lets air get to you’re roots so it doesn’t suffocate. Bigger roots bigger fruits.

It starts anytime you want, usually when your plants are big enough because they will flower as soon as you put them outside. But that is the beauty of growing in Hawaii, you can flower outdoor all year round. I have already harvested twice this year and have another run in early flower.
 
You looking to grow some photoperiod or autoflowers?
Autoflowers, but really anything that grows well here. I am brand new and feel like the climate here will be different than most places talked about online... I'm just not sure where to get strains that have good performance in Hawaii!? I'm on the dry side, so no constant rain or anything...

do you veg them fully inside or do you do supplemental lighting outside? is it even possible to do supplemental lighting?

Anyone have any suggestions for some good guides / videos / information on growing in Hawaii? feel like everything i read online is about the mainlandD:

Do you have a lot of space to grow outside? Do you have to worry about neighbors? If you’re growing autos any strain would highly do well outside! You don’t have to worry about light cycles they’ll start flowering when there ready. I feel like we have one of the best climates to grow almost any strain out there. Just know that some strains grow a lot taller then others mainly sativas. So if you have ni’ele neighbors I’d stay away from sativas unless you train um. I don’t grow outside, I grow indoors for that reason. But, I’ve had a few plants I grew outside and they did good. I wish I could guide you to someone but, you’re best bet would be on here for advice! Alohaz

I veg 100% outdoor from seed with cheap 12w led screw in light bulbs. It slower, your yard will be lit up, but its cheap and you can let your plants get as big as you want. You can use almost any decently bright light source.

yeah, I'm just going to grow outside fully. I just got my first batch of autoflower seeds yesterday so we'll see how they come up. that's good to hear. making me not as worried I'm going to get hit with weird mold issues or anything haha.

this is what I was wondering about. Do you just give it like 4 extra hours of light a day, till 10? was thinking of buying an outdoor porch light and using it... I wasn't sure how much light it needed to keep it in veg from supplemental lightinig

Yep, my timer turns on at sunset and goes till about 11:45pm. I just use 10w Cree LED screw in lightbulbs you can buy at costco or any hardware store for a couple bucks. My plants are about 6 feet tall and only used about 20watts of light

these are the last couple plants I have vegging outside right now. It’s ghetto but it works

My first seedlings popped out of the ground today and they look really healthy. i was wondering if they could handle the midday sun here in hawaii though. should i just try to give them as much light as possible, or give them some shade midday? was pretty roasting today
