My first outdoor grow :D

So i started my first grow last year and can anybody tell me when they are gona bud?

They were planted last year around the 20November 2013.... I live in Namibia(desert with weird ass weather) which is next to South Africa in the Southern Hemisphere..
Its growing on my roof next to a tree so it gets some shade throughout the day and for some reason the stems are purple?

If theres anything else i need to add just let me know!

You have to put the plant(s) into a 12/12 light cycle to get it to bud. In the 1980's I built a box to grow outside. Before I left for work I flipped it open and 12 hours later I'd close the box. That was the second year I grew bud, but this time I knew what I was doing. The previous year I didn't know about the 12/12 factor. I was putting them out every morning and putting them in the closet inside for night. After lenthy discussion with fellow growers this guy named Pat came out with the 12/12 light theory and we all then knew what caused the plants to bud in Canada. Nice buds also

aah thanks alot dude, seems like i gota build a box now aswell. Does anyone also know the type im growing? i think its a swazi or skunk... not too sure

*how long will the buds take to grow after i put them on the 12/12 light cycle?

Hard to tell strain but definitely a sativa dominate phenotype

There is a strain called swazi skunk lol

so now the end of the leaves are turning black and slowly die and its happening everwhere almost? will post pics later

After you switch it to 12/12 it will take atleast 2 weeks before you see pistils coming sometimes longer. You have to make sure there is no light leaks in the box you make. If there are light leaks it will stay in veg. Alternatively you could transplant it into a bigger pot and allow it to flower with the natural change of the light cycle. Depending on where you are search up the time of sunrise and sunset. And see when the light cycle starts to get shorter

The 12/12 light cycle only happens for a few days here? (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/astronomy.html?n=266&month=10&year=2014&obj=sun&afl=-11&day=1)

How do i get it to stop growing higher as well? + if i build a grow box how do i stop light from entering from the fans?

One more thing... when harvest time comes do i have to take the whole tree down or can i just cut off the buds and keep it growing? or isnt that a good idea..

Thanks alot for the help guys.. appreciate it
