My garden is about 25’ x 25’. How much/many light(s) would I need? I’m willing to do it to get it back so I can get a crop.

So, I’ll come out better popping my seeds in April rather than March? My old family Dr used to say to plant a garden after Good Friday and it would be good ;) . It freezes too many times (not all the time, but still too cold) to plant in winter. The ‘average’ last freeze is March 1st & it’s a ‘known thing’ that people around here usually put in their gardens March1 15th. Interesting. At my old age, gonna have to learn new tricks :p.

thanks for your help.

6-8 regular light bulbs should be enough. The plants just need to see the light. The sun will still be your main driver of growth.

When you are growing strains that are used to your light hours you can start earlier. But when stuff is used to indoor or up north light hours, starting early in the south is risky. But if you are in a legal state you can start as early as you want, just run the lights for a couple hours at midnight until you're safe from early flower.

Good luck.

Some of my best plants have been outdoor reveg’s. They get three finger leaves, stop flowering until july then flower again nice and bushy. Seems to be the year of reveg tho, thinking low temps accentuates the 10 hours darkness outdoors.

Really? That sure is nice to hear. I actually posted this on another forum to get some extra ideas. I'm stumped. On there, several people said the plants will end up just wasting away & it's just better to kill them now & replant them. I'm desperately searching all over before I just kill my little girls, and try to order & wait to just start planting seeds late May/early June? Achh! So, I really don't know what to do. I sure like hearing what you've said.

I may leave what I have & get some extras........ I already have more plants than I've had before (by 3 anyway ;)= 24 total...had 6 die. 5 didn't come up after they popped...more than normal..anyway)

So, this year seems to be happening to a lot of people? I've seen several posts on it. Interesting.

Is there anything extra I need to do with the plants when they stop flowering?

thanks for your post. It's given me hope.

I'm still having trouble with this. We have the same amount of sun every year (except clouds, of course :wink:). My point is, I can NOT see why this year is different. One of the strains is even the same as the one I grew last year. Nothing about it is different. ...

I'm confused. and old. and tired. and, am I going to have my medicine at the end of the season? :???:

Here is what mine looks like. I had a friend deal with some revegging last year and it was a ton of work! Not worth it in my case.

Kerowacked: Looks like there's a can (paint can?) around the stem in your photos. What is that for? Thanks!

Ooops. No electricity out there :p. We ran about 300 ft of hose, so maybe we could find enough electric wire, but mid june, which is the longest day/s of the year, will be here in a month. I think I'll try my luck. thanks for the suggestion

What size pot do you transplant them into? *Are they Autoflower?

From coffee cans to five gallon or inground. I give a bunch away and keep the best. Easy transplant, dig a hole, take the lid off the bottom and plant the can in the hole. Fill in around the can and pull it up or off. Regular seeds, i cut the males as they appear.

You wouldn't have to do it long. And it will reveg on it's on. And it's never a bad idea to pop a few more seeds. Unless you have a hard plant count, a few extras are a good thing.

About the same strain flowering early. I had an Ass Cheese flower in June one year. Most years they flower in late July. It never revegged. Once in a while you will run across plants that are just weirdos.

One of mine lol went ahead and dropped 5 more plants today for back up

I've still got one out from my spring crop. Waiting on seeds to finish on it. I'll take a couple of buds a week and see how they are looking, but will chop when reveg starts. Also two that were unplanned. Too early for full season's. Too late for spring crop. They look like your plant. Just getting going good. I will be waiting on seeds on them too, then will cut as much bud as possible, then let them reveg of they are in the mood.

There can be a wide range of flowering times between strains. It might just be genetics.
