Depends what you grow, if you get a quicker finishing variety you can do well. If you try to grow Sativas, than not so well. That's why bagseed outdoor grows in northern climates can be heaven or hell. A buddy of mine had this plant this year, 3rd week in August it looked almost done, was yummy nug by than.

Yeah... Idk I guess just hope for a good season. Strain wise probably a Kush of some kind. What you think?

AK-48 will do okay, or a Northern Lights, maybe a blueberry. Never grown Kush surprisingly, so I'm not sure on that. Just shop smart, do your research, you have plenty of time to decide. Start em inside no later than about April, get em out mid May. I use two 4 foot shop lights to start them inside.

When do you start and when do you put them out?

I start late March to mid April inside, in the southern half of the state you can put them out mid May, northern half I'd wait til early June.

What about putting them directly in soil or in pots? I was thinking directly in soil? What you think Krunchie?

I've done both ways, it's nice to be able to move them if need be. But they grow better outdoors right in the ground. It really depends on your own situation, if you are in a secure spot, they are fine right in the ground. If you think you might want to hide them from company, 5 gallon pails work for that. You can still grow pretty decent trees in a 5 gallon pail.

Thanks. Directly in soil is what I will probably do. Still a lot of time to decide. What about fertilizers? I've just heard mixed opinions. Or just water them?

Buy 100% feminized: buy Short Rider marijuana seeds from Nirvana's online shop!Nirvana's Short Rider is a hybrid of our discontinued marijuana strains Top 44 and Early Special. Top 44 has long been a trade favourite because of its ability to produce commercially worthwhile amounts of strong, skunky buds in just 44 days of flowering. Even though Early Special itself lacks this characteristic, its Siberian Cannabis Ruderalis genes give Short Rider the unique ability to "autoflower" - to flower independently of light cycles, like lowryder. This means you won't need to maintain a strict lighting schedule for these marijuana seeds - they will flower regardless! These seeds are a must for cannabis growers with limited space or who simply want to finish extra early. The quality of the weed is amazing considering how little time it takes these marijuana seeds to finish.

Run your lights 18/6, they'll pre flower when they're mature.

Do you have to use fertilizers? Or can you just let them grow outdoors.
