need some info for island grow

hey guys me and my family might be move to an island by japan where it never gets cold and the only thing is at the most there only 13 hours of light during the day. how do you think my plants would do outside. like a the jungle. the humidity is allway kinda high cuz well its an island. need some info please

auto flower...... or veg inside...... not really enough info to get a good answer........

not auto flowers just would be germing the seed indoor and they would beindoors for probly 2 or three weeks at the most

get yourself a tropical sativa strain and you should be fine. theres a lot of strains adapted to tropical humidity and shorter days.

ull have to meke sure they get 12/12 light/darkness ur self like a i do every day at 6 o clock i put em in a very dark room i have.. and at 6 am i get them outside again.. thats how i doit hre in puerto rico..were its just like thet like 13 or 14 hrs sun light..and the humidity is hi to

Where I am the longest day of the year is anly about 14.5 hrs anyway. 13 is no big deal.

Hey tio WEPAAAAAAA!

so what strain would you guys recommend then i f you dont mind im new to this who groiwing thing

Im currently growing a strand called Annapurrna Super Auto. Its from www.dope-seeds.com. I decided to experiment with a few auto-flower strains this year and this one caught my eye. 90 days from when it sprouts till when it finishes, could be something to look at. I'll be starting up a grow journal soon and will have pics up shortly

Hey, like in my thread (Talking about the same island ).

I had plenty people look at Guams daylight hours, and this is how I understand it:



First of all from what other people have told me, A pure Sativa Strain would be good for this climate. I will be growing Thai Full Moon which is available on the Nirvana seed bank here: http://www.nirvana-shop.com/en/full-moon-feminized-5-seeds.html

I guess in Guam we have a Short and Long season, The Long season starts around March which is when you ideally want to start planting. Yes, its under 12 hours but the plant WONT start flowering because Pure sativas take around 2 months to sexually mature, and by that time the daylight hours will already be nearing 13 hours a day so it wont start flowering but it will stay in vegetative phase until August which is when it will start to flower because the days will be getting shorter.
Then you'll harvest around Nov/Dec. That much time in the veg phase will probably bring the plant atleast 5 feet tall

The reason you dont plant in Jan or Feb is because if you plant that early it will be sexually mature and able to flower at around March/mid april and the daylight hours will still be short enough for it to go into flowering, then by May it will have to stop flowering because of longer days, making it revert back to veg which will delay plant growth I think.

Now, the short season I think starts around the time the long season plants start flowering so at about August. You'll plant in August then it will start flowering as soon as its able to since the daylight hours are shorter than 12 hours. then you'll harvest your Long season plants at around Oct/Nov, and then also harvest the short season plants around Dec/Jan.

The short season plants will have less yield, because of shorter veg time, but maybe if you planted more during the short season and used a high nitrogen fertilizer during veg phase you can get decent sized plants.

Feb would be prep month I guess for the next years long season. I think this is similar to how people grow on Hawaii, I'm not sure.

For growing Indicas, Veggie Gardener suggested that since Indicas are less sensitive to daylight changes that Indica plants might not even start flowering... And if that is the case then I guess autoflowering Northern Lights would be good :http://www.nirvana-shop.com/en/autoflower-strains/northern-light-feminized-autoflower-seeds.html

I think thats pretty much summed up growing weed on Guam outdoors. I believe that information is mostly correct.

Hope to see you on guam, happy growing.

EDIT: Another thing I forgot to mention, after August when the Long season plants SHOULD start flowering you can expose the plants to artificial lights to PREVENT flowering until October, then it will flower and finish around the same time as the short season plants. This may get even larger yield per plant. I may do this because I'm only starting to plant now, and its a little later than march.
