I found a little info in that forum. I was just seeing if any of the michigan guys had any experience with these outdoors.
Also, just wanted to say hi to the michigan growers. I'm in the tip of the mit and this is my first serious attempt at growing.
Last year I started too late and ended up with three miniature plants that had less than 1/8th on each of them.
This year I'm starting early indoors, then moving outside.
Is the second week of may too early to put them outside if the forecast looks good? I'm worried that they will start to flower

Just adjust you lighting before you put them out
Its the light hours that triger them to flower

I found a website that shows the sunrise and set times for my county. It looks like about 14 1/2 hours between rise and set at that date. Should I set my lights to exactly that?

Hello James,

I like to put my outdoor ladies out around June 1st or at the earliest lats two week of May. The reason being if you put them out to early they think its time to flower so they switch to that cycle and they get confused when the light time keeps getting longer it sets them back at least two weeks. Then when the day time light starts to reduce in the fall they once again are set back and will not begin to flower till the end of Aug because of the first setback. So now you have set the plant back at least 4 weeks in Michigan this is not a good thing.


This of corse is just the way I have have found that works for me others may disagree but I have found this to be true with all the strains I have grown over the last 25 years or so here. Good luck with your grow this year. And remember the golden rule of growing...Tell know one what you are doing! And I mean nobody. This hobby is one of self gradafacation... Peace.

Thanks for the help deistele. I hevent told anyone about it and don't plan on it. Its really gonna be hard around august when my buddies start bragging about there grows, but my lips are sealed.

Loose lips sink ships!!!

i looked around and found out the humbolt nutes are craptastic, they caused other peoples leaves to do the same thing as mine, i would have liked a little more weight, but im still happy for my first run. going monday to buy the dwc equipment. next run is perpetual, hope it works.

Cool convict, glad to know you will be puffin for a bit.

delstele is completely right james.. a bit of advise from me, do not veg your plants with long hours of lights on with plants you will be throwing outdoors. What I mean is run your lights something like 16/8. 16 or 17 hours ON will help your plants as well. You do not wanna have your plants getting a 20/4 light schedule and them put them outside at the end of may or begining of june in michigan. This can help the plants not go into pre-flowering as well.

Young plants can take lower hours of light better then a mature plant can - without begining to want to flower

Nice to see ya james and yup welcome to the thread.
