i know its still winter, but im starting to plan my first outdoor grow. iv done smaller ones indoors, but never outside. i have a secure location and i need some advice.

from what iv read it takes from april-october to do a full grow and i need my crop to flower and be harvested by early september (im going off to college and wont be able to pick it)
how do i artificially induce early harvest while outdoors?

You can use a technique called "Shading". Its where you have plants outside and you want to start flowering. You need to find/make something so dark that no light can go through it and cover the plants on a 12/12 schedule. Time it for whenever you want, just make sure you know how long the average harvest time is on the strain and what not.

thanks everyone, but one more question

say i plant on may1, what date(approx.) should i start shading?
assuming a normal harvest time at the end of sept would occur without shading
