i dont know if id go with smart pots to much work and watering. leaves large trails. and i dont like valleys near streams in pa. fall fog and damp morning make bud rot. also those plants your putting near the tree line to induce flower cause there late will back fire cause of the fog dew and that there still going to be late... iv tried all of these. but let me know if you have any luck.
i fucked my post all up haha
ok heres how preflowering outdoor goes
start seeds
put em out in pots in all day sun especially morning sun
june 21 is summer solstice move the plants to an evening sun facing spot
harvest by late august early september with a WW
it took me 3 months to figure out why...
extending the dark period makes em bud and..morning sun is more intense then evening sun so its like more darkness when you block out the morning sun. if youve ever had a plant or heard of one being stuck in the shade by mistake and finished way earlier this is the same concept only domesticated.
if you dont believe me try it. as long as you picked good spots itll work.
