Hello, im new to this site and to the whole growing scene ive been reading alot of your journals and threads they have really helped me... Im intrested in growing my first trees now my only problem I cant grow inside yet so im wondering if theres anyway to do an outdoor grow but with lights my reason I dont think there will be enough light for the only spot i have outside to grow my trees.. The area I have is only getting about 5 hours of good direct sun.. Now i know this might sound weird but info would be appreciated..Thanks sorry for it being so long.bongsmilie

I understand about the season and why its not wise to grow now i wanst going to try to plant it now in the winter.. but even in may or june whatever month the spot i have wont get more than 5 to 6 hrs of sunlight which is why i was thinking of that idea i know its weird and stupid but im just asking if it would work and if its been done

ya i kno it was a stupid question and no im not 14 trust me if it was up to me i would have a room just for my plants but i dont live alone yet and i was just Curious...I think im going to just do them in my tool shed it has electricity so i can setup fans and lights... it gets hot and humid in there so any ideas how i could setup an exhaust ?

5 hours of direct sunlight should be good enough from my experiences. Grow using the biggest light you can, the sun

A plant only needs 5 hours minimum to grow outside, so it should be all good, and its not like the plant isnt getting light when the suns out but not directly on the plants, its just not as much and wont grow as fast

You could use a greenhouse. Add supplimental lighting to bring it up to the 12/12 photoperiod.
