CHECK OUT THIS FIRST GROW...IN WINTER!

"The rule of thumb" from what I've gathered is to plant in the time between Fathers and Mothers day in September.

 

 

All the best, AA.

Weather patterns have changed since the fathers and mothers day rule. When you plant your tomatoes out it's about time to plant your ladies out. Just keep an eye out for old man frost.

They look like nice healthy plants mate, you've done a great job for your first grow

Well if you get the usual indoor bagseed and chuck it outside in the winter i dont reckon you would get much of a yield either. Mine were outdoor only seeds from Nimbin and i got just over 2 ounces for three plants that i reeped a week early. 12 grams seems pretty disapointing but dont be discouraged the usual winter grow can work if you start planting at the latest in March and really look after them as seedlings.

Wow nice winter grow man!

Looking good Toke Joke & Laugh, they look like they have a good portion of skunk in them, do they stink? What's your lat and local climate like? Sorry for so many questions, but I love seeing people do what so many say is impossible

 

Must be only certain types that grow in Winter , as I had some out all winter and they did NOTHING . Wasnt until they went thru spring and summer ,they grew , then headed up in the next winter

 

Latitude and local conditions play a big part in winter harvests. Around 36 SLat I can grow a thai x in a greenhouse through winter to about 1/4 of the summer size, but it just doesn't work with my afghani. Unless I bring her in at night and supplement light artificially, she just sits there until spring and starts growing with the warmer weather.

 

Generally sativa dominant cultivars will do better in the winter than indica dominant because they continue to gain size as they flower.

 

guerrilla's gusto, mexican sativa, early skunk ~ if they'll grow through Canberra's winter in a greenhouse, they'll grow pretty well anywhere on the mainland (maybe not Ballarat or Thredbo though).
