Too late for seeds?

I've heard great things about Jack, but I stayed away from it because (I think) I read that it can take 9-11 weeks to flower. I'm in the "Gateway to the Gorge" and beyond normal Oregon fall rain, my fall comes with high winds, so I need plants that finish early. If you've got good southern exposure -- nothing blocking the sun as it lowers to the south in September -- then you will probably have enough sun to finish a strongly sativa strain like Jack. I hope to do an indoor with it next winter.

I got my seeds earlier in the season from Harborside, they just changed owners and are Pur Roots now. I got some LSD because its mold-resistant and finishes early, and some Dr. Who (but decided not to run the Dr. this time). Both are Indica dominant hybrids, my patient/wife prefers Sativa-doms so the rest I'm doing from clones (a Jillybean and a Gorilla Glue #4 I picked up at Kind Heart Collective, and two I took from my current indoor, and Bruce Banner #3 and a Chemdawg OG x Rugburn OG (picked up months ago at Progressive Collective)). I'm growing just about everything in pots, so if something needs more time and the weather goes to shit, I'm hoping to pick up some cheap lights and finish them in the garage. Last year was my first outdoor, and I learned a lot about things I can not control.

Tomorrow I'm up-potting the seeds from 1 gallon pots into their final pots, the clones I took and the ones I bought aren't ready yet, seeds definitely root and grow faster once they get going.
Every strain you mentioned is on my to grow list. Nice selection !!! Please post some pics if u can. Or atleast update how eavh turns out..

Im in pretty much the same terrain. Nl works well for (not sure of the original strain as its been handed down many x) and also skunks work verry well,, again not sure of genetics as this also has been handed down.

So basicaly this post was useless since i dont know the strains of either of our top growers. We dont realy talk about it. Its thats some sknk n thats some lights. They been around for a very long time (prob longer than me).

Ive done a few diff crosses of both NL and Sknk and they seem to always do well no matter the strain. Harvest times do differ though but if you find one that wrks perfect thn pollinate just a little so u can grow it again.. The options are yours, you fine tune things to what is best for your needs..

I grow from seed only... I have sweet and sour, Ice breaker, Honeysuckle and mojave OG kush outdoor as we speak... I vegged them for over 2 months so we will see what yield I will get this year. New outdoor spot on my farm is where we have had cow manure and compost for many years. I moved 99% of the compost and tilled the dirt a good 2 feet deep, added bone meal and calpril (lime) to amend the soil. Built a greenhouse the last few days over all of this, even made it where I can open the roof if plants exceed 8 feet tall.
Nice living in a legal state.

if you can find the real jack herer it's not an 11 wk plant, I grew it for over a decade and it was almost always done in less than three months.
probably a 75 day plant i'd say, maybe 80 depending on the temps.
HIGHLY recommend though...
super jack is another awesome one.
you may like pineapple hashplant from Bodhi, it's quick and most phenos have the jack flavor

I'm still popping seeds. But then I'm in NW Florida, so my season is a little longer than yours. I think it was early November last year when I pulled most of mine. Could have waited until December. Late, late first frost last year.
