calling all uk outside growers

a light trap is an area of open space where you get lots of sun,but with cover around the area so no one can see your plants when walking past.

so poeple can not see your
plants when walking past.

i figured that was it but wasn't sure. thnks for the confirmation.
Also has anybdy tried growing lowriders outside in the uk. I was thinking they would be great because they keep low are quick so you can move each location every 9 weeks and make mutiple harvests givin me fresh bud throughout the summer. How well do they cope with our english weather (high rainfall, Not consistant sun ect ect.) ?

just get the most mold resistant strain you can find and you will be fine. check out the green house. I think it is the Himalaya gold, bot I'm not sure.

Could someone explain a light trap? I take u mean something reflecting light into the space but i can't think of anything natural that this cud be.
thanks in advance.

when i said sun trap i mean somewhere that is completely surrounded and hidden but where the sun can get into it for house at a time from above

be lucky if we get much sun in the uk.....lol

any other poeple planing on doing a grow this year ?

i am just finishing a few lowryders but they are indoors, i had a couple of ak47 x lowryder outdoors last year but i didnt plant until about october by then the cold was coming so they died, at the time i had no other place to put them

i prefere to take a mini greenhouse .. like £5 or something from bnq .. get them germed around late march and put them in small cups in the GH for about week and a half before moving completly outdoors in bigger pots .. cuts out transporting little plants and hardenig off ..

+ im planning on experimenting with autos outdoors this year ... and hey .. i get good english sun

i want to grow outdoors, but i am unsure of when to start, im thinking of putting a small 4inch plant out in late april, but even then would the days be long enough for proper growing?

not sure .. im putiing my seeds out first april + there is 14+ of sunshine and growing in april so i dont see why not .

im also growing this year outdoors, in woodland, im starting the seeds off indoor, veg for 2 weeks then harden off outside in early march, plant out at end of march.

should try out jorges diamond 1 - bread especially to be little work - mould resistant and untempting to pests ( so they say , no personal experience with it sadly)

they rekon its gonna be a fekin SCORCHA this year !!! (uk) get ready outdoor growers !

man come on they say that every fucking year !!! lol ... just how wrong can they get it !! hope so though ..

if i remember rightly it snowed in like march last year(myb the year before) or something ridiculous, or am i just imagining things?

I grew 'Mr Nice Shit' outdoors in ealing, london. Started indoors, planted out in a sheltered bright spot in the garden in the middle of march. It grew to be about 6 foot, fed on good soil and home made compost. It ended up needing to be tied down to avoid detection from the neighbours. I cut on the 5th of october. All in all I got just under 3oz dry, not the strongest, but lovely tasting, natural weed.

What do people think about planting on a railway embankment? If I planted near the top (approx 40ft from tracks) do you reckon the railway workers would spot it? If that's no good then I don't think there's anywhere near here that people don't traipse over, well couldn't spot anywhere on Google Earth anyway!
