    Lowryder vs other auto strains (Lowlife etc)?

    I know the lowryder strains started it all and the genetics on the AK and diesel crosses are pretty strong, but I haven't heard much about the other dwarf strains. Can anyone experienced with the auto strains give me a bit of a comparison of lowryder vs. lowlife or any other auto strains...

    pics from after the frost. chop em?

    Here are pictures of two of my three plants. There was a frost the other night and the night before (not sure exactly how cold it got, but I thought they were light frosts) and quite a bit of rain yesterday. The small-ish buds are still in decent shape, though the plants started flowering really...

    how well does MJ weather frost?

    my outdoor ladies aren't showing sex yet (one has very very small, hard-to-sex preflowers) in the northern midwest US. according to the website they need about 9 weeks of flowering to finish. now, granted, there will be some time that could be considered "flowering" where they haven't shown...

    tiny leaves at internodes

    my outdoor plants are producing tiny little leaves at the internodes, but no pistils or seedpods (plants haven't even pre-flowered yet). i couldn't get a picture of them (friend is borrowing camera) but imagine 2 tiny little marijuana leaves just starting out of the nodes. note: not the...

    moldy seeds?

    I'm germinating some seeds via the paper towel method, and about 7 of them have popped. A couple that haven't popped yet look like they have a thin white line going around the edge. Is this mold? I fan in air at least twice a day, usually every 8 hours if possible. If it IS mold, should I remove...

    helicopters

    what's the risk of a small-time, subsistence grow getting caught by helicopter patrols? i hear about large busts being made by helicopter, do they use it to spot small patches as well?

    soil without nutrients, add ferts right away?

    I bought a soil that has no natural NPK in it. I know with most potting soils, you're supposed to wait 2-3 weeks before adding ferts. Can I add the 18-18-20 ferts I have to the soil the first time I water it?

    using garbage bags to force outdoor 12/12

    let's say i want to force outdoor plants to enter the flowering stage with a 12/12 light cycle- what's the easiest way to do that outside? i've heard you can use triple-layer black garbage bags over the plants for 12 hours every day for a week or two to achieve this, but i'm worried about...

    in a pot or straight in the ground?

    if i'm growing purely outside, should i start in a pot and then move them to the ground, or can i put the germed seed straight into the ground? maybe put a little topsoil in the ground, drop it in that? everything i've read says that growing in the ground allows for more root space, better and...

    it gets pretty cold here in autumn, and i'm looking at an 8-9 week flowering on my plants how cold can it get at night while the plants are flowering without killing them and ruining the harvest? daytime temps in sept are just fine, pretty mild, i'm just wondering about those nighttime lows...

    Possibly starting first outside grow, some questions

    First things first. Is it too late to start an outdoor grow in Wisconsin? We're getting about 15 hours of sunlight a day, temperatures pretty warm and humid. The spots I'll be growing in will get at least 10 hours of sunlight, probably more, being that they're in a field that has northern...
