@mauricem00 How far out till harvest do you figure? I had intentions on choppin in 4 1/2 more weeks but it seems like they're going to need longer to me?
I do not go by a time clock. I chop mine after the tricombs turn and the plant starts dropping leaves. your plants may take 4 1/2 to 6 1/2 weeks to finish depending on the strain.my 3 outdoor plants were started in mid june but are at different stages of flowering. be patient and don't rush things.I'm a MMJ patient and have a legal grow. I grow a few plants outdoors during the summer and have an indoor closet grow year round. this is a fun hobby and makes good medicine :)

I'm just a little bit nervous about the cold weather they seem to be happy and healthy currently and the nugs seems to be getting bigger each day I check so fingers crossed I suppose. I've been feeding remo's line and going by his chart and I was planing to cut off nutes in another 3 1/2 ish weeks but now i'm not sure should I just continue feeding? Thanks for the tips everyone :)

you can always get a cheap HPS light and finish indoors if the weather turns cold before they finish https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KMW7RYM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but with this hot summer we are not likely to get an early freeze. always good to have a "plan B " in time you will learn to understand what your plants are telling you

Good point, I finished my outdoor in my garage a couple of years back, they needed another couple of weeks and the snow was coming. Worked out fine, just make sure if you use your garage that you seal any cracks, otherwise your garage will look like a scene out of a sci-fi/alien movie - lol

my neighbors know that I'm an MMJ patient and have a legal grow. they also know I'm a little :"strange" so it does not matter if a little light leaks out of my garage but generally that's good advice

Prolly more like mid-Oct.
Mid-end Oct, exactly how mine are looking. Cheers to no frost!

You can always build a tent around them to protect them, couple sticks and see through plastic (give them air to breath at the bottom and small hole out the top-ish area). Mine are in a stupid light defracting shelterlogic greenhouse which I will never attempt again. May your flowers finish well...
