Outdoor Cannabis Cultivation

Hi All, I have a blueberry moscow (blueberry x ak47) that i put outside a week or 2 into september (lil early i know) i started them indoors 14/10 to keep the photoperiod fluctuation minimal. So she looked fine (normal preflowers) until about 2 weeks ago, i noticed a bit more pistils than normal and thought, hey thats a lot of preflowers, but shel be right! but this week upon inspecting again, it seems theyre really starting to cluster, with a bit of smell and a tiny bit of frost forming too! its late october/almost novermber currently, i have no way of outdoor lighting so this is out of the question. from your experiences, do you guys think she will revert to ve…

Hello Oz Stoners Online Community, Long time lurker, first time poster! I would like some advice to guide my upcoming outdoor grow to make sure I am on the right track with my grand plans and high aspirations! I have previously grown some cannabis before with a friend at a shared house - however we had different ideas about the best way we should grow (and little knowledge or skills) and therefore grew some very, very average cannabis. I am now in the right place and space to grow some much better cannabis, but whilst I have read heaps (and there is lots of conflicting material out there on the Internet) I still lack the practical skills. I have been growing some to…

hey, i posted something similar to this a few months back, buts just want to reword my question... anyone that grows indoors to veg then outdoors to flower all year round in North Qld.? our longest day where i am only has 13 hrs 15mins. do plants still always flower with this much light? wondering if its possible in north qld to just veg for anout 5/6 weeks under cfl then flower outdoors, ANYTIME of the year? will sativas veg lomger than indica? i keep hearing of people growing all year around here, but from my recent experience having rhe day length at about 12 hrs 30 already, the girls go straight into flower and font seem that they will ever keep vegging. …

Hey Guys! First time grower but have been frequently checking this site for info. Some great stuff on here! Just though id get some pointers as I've never grown before only a few veggies/herbs here and there. No chance of indoor growing so outdoors it is!! Live in Melbourne and its just starting to get warmer here ( Spring time late September ) and a lot more sun so thinking now is the time to get these bad boys running. Is now a good time to start? Got 5 Northern storm autos and 5 reg white widow max. Going to start them in wet paper towel method then pop them into large outdoor pots with a good organic soil mix. Got a smallish backyard but gets pretty good su…

Hey Stoners, newbie to this site, made a intro at Dr Livingston and a couple of comments here and there. But I think this is the site I'm after, wondering how many smokers are growing at high altitudes. My place is 830 meters, surrounded by farmland on one side and national park the rest. Temperature range is from minus -7.4C to 39.7C. That is what I have recorded here over the last 17 years. Snow falls we get most winters but they are usually lite, 2012 was our heaviest recently. Heavy frosts are common, last season we had frosts up till mid Nov. Rainfall since 1st Jan. 584mm, this year we are above the average for this area. Overnight dew is the biggest pro…

Hello guys Could anyone helps me to find some real seeds? Cheers

I bought seeds from Bonza last year. That's a whole other story. I have the strange feeling they may be auto's. Planted two in November, they grew to about 250mm high, then began to flower. Never got any bigger. Are these auto's? If so, when should I plant them? Looking to get them around 1500mm high before they flower.

Hi Guys, This is my first grow. I'm really excited to watch and learn through the process and any harvest will be a great bonus I have an Amnesia Haze and a Freeze Berry Auto i'd like to grow outside. Currently getting 11+ hours of sunlight a day. I hope this will be enough! It will increase over the coming months. I'm going to germinate the seed right off in the pot bucket i'm going to grow it in. I plan on using soil, something i can purchase from Bunnings. I'm thinking of using a simple seedling soil to start at the top of the bucket above the main soil filled below. I have noticed Osmocote Premium being recommended with a mix of Perlite for the main mix. …

Hi all, not sure if i have put this post in the right place or not but here it goes! This outdoor season iv managed to get my hands on some good quality local seeds from a reliable source who apparently has been perfecting his own strain for years. He never gave a name to the strain (this old boy just called it 'his' strain) but i know the quality is up there for a sativa dominate plant. So i have decided to make some seeds of my own with this strain as im not too keen on purchasing seeds online. I got 5 seeds in total, planted all of them about 3 weeks ago and all but 1 popped up. All 4 are going strong at the moment and am hoping i get 2 of each gender so i have a …

Hey all, really enjoy this site and learning from everyone on here. Exciting time of year hey??!!! Exciting but not always without pain. Thanks to days of rain at the end of March/early April in 2014 I forced to harvest early (was beautiful smoke by December though, marvellous what a long, slow cure can do) and lost almost half of my crop to bud rot. Oh well, as a friend said 'that's farming for you'. Messed around with a few ideas but have gone with 6 x 3m square cantilever waterproof umbrellas. Popped them up today and was really happy. They even coped with quite a gusty wind (weighted down with bags of concrete and tethered with hayband). Fingers crossed. How doe…

hi when to start growing in south australia i have clones just wanting to no when to put them out ? thanks

Hey, Just a question that I cant find the right info for... Being in Aus (far north) Am I right in saying I can Vege under Cfl's from seed for about 3-4 weeks, then transfer outdoors and they will triggering into flower? Then would the flowering period really only be 8-10 weeks like a full indoor grow (strain depending obviously)? Or would i need to put them into 12/12 to trigger them, then put outdoors? I think I have made my question difficult, , sorry, having one of those mornings Or.... because we are coming into spring, will the plants continue to vege with the days getting longer again? Cheers

Hey guys! First time poster, long time reader and fan of this great community! So i checked on my two darlings this morning and suprise! I saw white pistols! I'm all "yayy it's a female!" Whilst doing a one legged hop/dance in the middle of my yard, however upon looking at it again I became unsure if it might possibly be a hermie.. So I snapped some photos hoping you guys can either give me the good news or break my heart! Thanks in advance! minminlight

Disclaimer: I'm sure this has been asked before but I have found no info after extensive research. I apologise in advance if I'm repeating old posts. Hi everybody, a friend of mine is planning on propagating some plants indoors under artificial lighting before moving them outside (in Melbourne) once established. The purpose being to provide a comfortable start to the youngins and get them strong before exposing them to the harshness of nature. Her plan is to start them in early September inside with 24-0 days, then move them out a week into October after the last frost has passed. At this stage the time between sunrise and sunset will be around 12.5 hours (and obvio…
