Hello everyone, well is been a while since I posted something in this site. And this year I will try outdoor. I have been growing indoor for almost a year now and I have learned quite alot.

Any tips I should know in order to have a great outcome by harvest this year?

Will be growing some GDP, Sour D, Blue Dream, White Widow And White Berry.

Nutes?
Soil?
Etc...

Thanks in advance!

A lot depends on what youre doing..In ground,or pots? Wanting to go organic? Are your 4 strains seedlings you need to germinate or do you have/are getting clones? What's your latitude?

Either way, you should plant Mid-May ish for a couple reasons..You need the daylight hours and no chance of a frost for smaller plants...later in the season when they are big and in flower they can handle lower temps a little better.

I use homemade smart pots and plant directly into the ground..I amend my native soil with EB Stone planting compost.

I water with EB stone Fish Emulsion (but may switch to a cold process fish fertilizer) 4-1-1 and every other week add 1 teaspoon of Molasses to may watering. Molasses feeds the micro0organisms in the soil.

Flower 2nd week of August on I swtich to MaxSea flower nutes.

If you can, I'd plant directly in the ground. Dig out holes that are atleast 2'x2' and backfill with high quality soil. I use compost/manure, topsoil with perlite and peat, a little sand, and screened rich native soil all mixed together and it seems to work out well for me.

Since your heading outdoors now, I would read up on what to use for insects you may not encounter inside.
This. And plant in the ground if you can it is the most forgiving and you don't really have to worry about flushing so much, but Ya expect to lose some of your yield to things like caterpillars and other problems, it's not like indoor where you can avoid most of these things. Plant strains that are pest and mildew resistant is your best best.
