Wanted to plant indoors but looks like i'll have to do outdoors....

my concern is pests and light. I have a huge backyard and sunny spots all day but what if theres like a week of rain or clouds?.....will it kill me?

hey rob...outdoor rocks!
you can grow a great crop outside....
you don't really need to worry about rain till you got thick buds....then it can get spooky...as mold wont be far away....
don't plant outside yet of it could start flowering...

I just bring mine inside if it gets really rainy or if they are budding and it rains a little I will bring them inside I keep mine in 5gallon buckets now... or you could just cover them with a tarp... even when clouds cover the air they still get plenty of sun light.... My mama always told my sister the best days to lay out is on over cast cloudy days because its not hot but u can lay out in the sun for longer and a more comfortable temp....

Yeah, I know what you mean. When it would be really cloudy for a few days, i would put it inside in the morning under my light and put it back outside at night. I would keep doing this everyday until it was sunny again, and I had chronic ass bud because of it. Idk how to solve that problem by keeping them outdoors though.

well they will be potted and not in the ground. So bringing them in or tarping is a great solution. I planned on setting up a ponics system in the house but im stupid and gave my dog pork chop bones the other day and hes been in and out of the vet and might need minor surgery so money isnt where i need it to be right now. I love my weed but my dog is my #1. Now outdoors is an alternative but as ive stated, im concerned about pests and i dont think you can use pesticide on cannabis. I could be wrong since im wrong like 98% of the time but....

My buddy said outdoors would be ok too but to keep them potted. I will have to move them every saturday anyway for when the landscapers come. My yard is 1.5 acres and sunny all day long on a good day. Just need a different approach doing it outdoors. I wont germinate anything for another few weeks though. I have some handsome Blue Cheese beans that are screaming to grow. Ive only tried growing my own once before and i think it got to like 8 inches tall and keeled over and died. This time i want a more serious approach because im tired of paying people for what i can grow myself. Not to mention waiting on them to meet me when they are good and ready to stop being lazy. My wife hates that im going to grow some but when i have weed she wants to smoke it.....shame on me for getting married.

Anywho, thanks for the tips guys. I will keep you all posted when i get it all started up. Of course any more advice is greatly appreciated. Hoping for a few weeks of no rain (not likely) when I start budding.
