Dogs death march

To test the limits and capabilities of my hotbox I will be attempting to keep 2 autoflowers going from now though april.
The thought process is
"If I can get autos to grow and develop this winter, then, having established photo plant simply survive next winter will be easy"
Seed stock is fog dog from atlas
First seed was sown directly into soil today
The second has to wait for my skunks to finish probably around Halloween
3rd will get to start inside for a week or so and a 4th in February
I do not expect a bountiful harvest I am doing this purely to learn the limits of my grow environment. If I get a quality blunt out of each plant I will consider it a success

Are you talking indoors or outdoors? Photos won’t work in winter outdoors, they’ll almost immediately go into flower. The autos will grow in winter providing they don’t freeze, or turn into a giant ball of mold.

I'll be pruning the oak tree that is making all the shade soon.
I have enough 6mm greenhouse plastic to cover all 6 sides. I have a stack of bricks and a stack of windows for blocking any corner gaps thermal retention and such.
I will run a box fan for circulation and probably put up a blurple once the days get under 10hrs

All materials were either curb scored or donations. I simply want to know if it is good enough. I won't be pumping $$ into it if I can't make it work with what I got ill buy a hoop house next fall. Photos I want to perennial will get supplemental light from harvest til July not gonna try and bloom them in cold months

Coming in slow. But production is not the point of this grow.

Tonight's low is 52f and she's still a baby, but that is the low for the 10day forecast.
I don't want to put my walls up when I'm still gonna have several days in the mid 80s and it's TStorm season. Window box it is

Well my hot box is fuck. So this girl will do what she can unassisted and this experiment will not be ran though the winter .
Build/buy something better in the winter and try again next year

I got a presant experiment saved.
Got a new job this week went straight from training to on the job so haven't had time to be by the spot much lately

Glad to hear you got another shot at your project. Should be interesting to see how they do with temps. Best of luck!!

I'm not going to be able to maintain this location with my new work schedule. I won't be planting a second seed. I will still gift clones to the residents but I have doubts of how well they will do.
