Louisiana Outdoor Grow Time??

late april through early june...planting earlier means bigger plants if you can keep them healthy the extra few months, as well as bigger yield, but that extra few months is usually at a time when there are no other living plants yet, and it will be a prime target for hungry animals. planting earlier can also up to double the amount of time the plants spend outside, which one would think would double it's chance of being found. a lot of this game is a gamble...

remember... the Temperature stays well above 90 from mid-late summer so remember that when planting... i did an outdoor grow in mid-summer last year and had some really small plants because of the heat... goodluck with your grow! p.s... what you know about Boosie bad ass?

The trouble with planting too early is that the plant will go straight to flower if there's 12 hours of dark. Then, as the days lengthen they will revert to veg. This type of confusion can result in stress and stunted growth in the long run.

Down in LA we are fortunate to have a very long grow season (almost year around if you cover up your plants about 5-8 nights in December and January). We have nearly no hard frosts.

You can grow now, but we can plant as late as May or even early June. Anyone know the benefits/problems with starting early or late in the season? (aside from more time for people to find it)

(I ask because I read somewhere a while back that if you put it in too early, by the time the summer solstice is coming around and its time to start flowering, it will take longer for it to convert from veg to flower (maybe it was just more time to finish flowering), then it would if planted in April or May. And the plant has to play catch up. Maybe it senses how much time it has veg'd for (time before solstice) and knows that it has that much time past the solstice?) Maybe its stupid and simply equates to longer veg = more plant matter means longer budding time.

Anyway, thoughts? Comments?

i know this isn't really appropriate, but i didn't know where else to go..... i was arrested and charged with possession of paraphernalia in a tiny little hick town.. i have paperwork to prove all of it if anyone doesn't believe me.... and i've got fines and court fees, around 1200$$ , and if i dont pay them i'm oging to have to go back to jail... i'm nineteen, stuck in this town, no car, no job, and even thoughn i'm allowed to live at home, my mom is against smoking and says "did the crime ,do the time"" and.. i just don't know where else to turn. i am posting everywhere.. i just don't know what else to do. private message me?
