Whats going on? Growing in the Hudson valley from the wonderful Hempire State. I am doing Early Skunk and a pack of Walkabout. I just need woods safe enough to put them. Looks like the weather is warming up, allmost time to put them outdoors. I have over 20 ES seeds don't know if I want to germ them all or half. It is alot of work hauling water after a long day. I am thinking of making my own pots out of landscapers fabric because I ussaly grow in 5 gal. buckettes. The bigger pots might help on having to water less. Well any way good luck and where are the other New Yorkers at.

I live in the western NY area. I've got my clones and seedlings vegging inside and will start moving them outside in about a month, getting anxious, waiting is the hard part.

The wait kills me because I can't do anything inside. I am thinking of using buckettes as a resivior with a hose tapped in. Then have it slowly drip into my buckettes that hold my plants. Something like that so I don't have to water so much. Don't have any natural soil to use. I am stuck using buckettes.

Day time temps i rising but the night is still cold. WTF. 32 this morning. Anyone have any out yet? I am thinking about putting some in a mini greenhouse to see if they survive. Keep it green everyone.

Wuts up from the Green MT state...Movin outside for the first time this summer..., I've got quite a few indoors under my belt but haven't messed with the outdoors, so I am a beginner when it comes to pulling off a crop under the good 'ol sun... I'm not up near the border or anything so I'm just gonna try to keep it fast flowering indica... Im really goin for commercial value so it doesn't have to be amazing, but if I'm gonna spend all the time and money I might as well grow somethin tasty...

What kind of strains is everyone out there doing?

I'm thinking sensi outdoor mix, or something skunky

I know most of the plants will probably adapt some hues cuz of the cold nights up here,I'm a big fan of purps as well though,
are there any hardy purple strains that do well in the northern climate?
