alright whats up guys?

lately, i have received 24 marijuana seeds. I germinated them and 22 of them sprouted. amazing. I put them in soil and all 22 of them popped up. once again, amazing.

Right now they are all in individual Dixie cups outdoors in a makeshift terrarium, nice and small with breathing holes.

It is may 23rd right now and i am a little bit concerned. I live om the coast of Massachusetts outside Boston and i am concerned about the season dates. I believe the season has started a few weeks ago. Am i too late? How will y tardiness affect my yield?

thank you.

One thing I haven't found yet is how much vegetation time to allow for an outdoor-grown plant before they go into flower. If it's in the GrowFAQs I've missed it.

down under (australia) I like to plant on the first full/new moon after the 22 june (our shortest day of the year)and then harvest in late april/may which gives me just enough time for my clones to be ready for the next years grow.

so i give them 7 months veg growth per season
then the 90 days flowering.

sup,im south of the border in the smallest state of the country,well anyway,it wont affect ur grow that much,it will be alittle smaller than ppl in like georgia.its finally warming up.u might have a little more rainy days than warm bc of oceanic storms.it will be a little cooler in ur area till like mid to late june but start some seeds soon and it should take off and grow like a mofo.us newenglanders dont really have to worry about the temps except in july to august when temps get to and above 100degrees.

with this al gore weather, it was probably wise starting them late!...seriously though, next year, start them indoors(if possible) under cfl's; the earlier the better,on 24/7 light.or better yet, take clones of the females, and veg' them, then daisy chain them for endless harvest....just a mad scientist's crazy scheme to never have to buy weed again.

Ok, but come on you nuts, I'm way north of the equator. June 21 is summer solstice here, sheesh. 7 months for vegetative growth doesn't sound possible for me as well into April I have to worry about frost. Fortunately, on the other end I don't usually (USUALLY) have to worry about frost until December, but that is not always the case. I figure I've got... 7 months total for grow, flower, and harvest, approximately. Aha! I'll search on how long to allow flowering! Also, just got my outdoor growers guide yesterday and read it last night. Next, maybe the outdoor growers bible, eh?

thanks a ton guys. i appreciate the help.


I actually did have about 14 plants inside, four of them were over a month old but i had security issues and other complications that led to their deaths.

no actually i am not nuts,yes they do grow through winter here not fast but they do grow.
now i am not going to argue the point but what i write is what i do.
so before you call a person a liar you should check the climate.we dont get to many frosts.
and all the farmers have just started there seeding program so did they get it wrong as well.

howdy ZG .our winters aint that cold, we dont really get any frosts well one or two but i find it dosn't hurt a good healthy plant to much.

Pardon me, but.. where did I call you a liar? I said you guys going with 7 months for vegging are nuts. I don't think that translates into "liar", more like.. "crazy".
Then I went on to talk about how that does not appear to be possible for me, given my latitude (and the likelihood of frost, hell, it's Memorial weekend and it's been raining solid since last night, with snow advisories and chain controls upcountry). I did not mention my elevation, even though that is also a factor in my own outdoor growing season. I will reiterate, seven months dedicated just to vegetative growth, unless I'm in a milder climate (gosh.. forgot that one qualifier) doesn't seem possible for me. I completely fail to see how that becomes me calling anyone a liar.

nope just took a while for the morning fog to lift.:)

I just grow them for as long as possible to get the best yield possible.
only grow once a year so i need to grow as much as i need in one go.
