Had one too many for the tent, didn't want to just rip it out so as a sort of an experiment, we put her outside on February 6th. You could say we got a really really early start to our outdoor this... summer.

It's been a mild winter, so far she's still alive and looks pretty good, actually. She's hanging out under some cover (kind of an open covered deck), so she stays pretty dry, and since I live in a micro-climate with "wind events" I have a cover for her (pictured below) for when the wind starts climbing over 20mph. If we get a late season hard freeze, I can put her in the laundry room for a night or two.

She came out of an 80º 18/6 veg situation and went outside into mostly 45-60º days and 40-50º nights (like I said, its been a mild winter). She seems healthy, but she's not doing much, I assume the low light and cool temps have slowed down her metabolism. I thought she might try to stretch and flower because of the light reduction, but not so much. I'm hoping she just coasts until April and then I can put her in the ground. It might end out being a flower / return to veg / flower again thing, we'll see. I think she's got strong genetics, its a Sour Diesel.

Other than that, I can't wait to do another real summer grow, it will be the second at this property and I learned a lot about the local terrain last year. We took down a tree over the winter, that really opened up the yard and we'll have way more afternoon light this coming fall to pull us through harvest. :)

Yea this was one was pretty painless. Which is nice. It was built new, took 600 bucks deposit to start the contract. I had to pull a tpost, but cinsidering its been raining at my house sin e novemeber, was a 3 second pull outta the ground. from time driver pulled into my driveway, and left, was an hour. And all I did was sip coffee and point to where I wanted it. Now I know why my wife enjoys that so much lol

Too funny. I've been on both sides of that equation.
Yea...the one I am currently grinding on still is the hen house. We discussed it at length where she wanted it built. I built it...she comes home and first thing is like...um....I had decided I wanted it over there *gestures to complete opposite side of yard* I thought i told ya...didn't I?....hmmm maybe I didnt...but anyway, go ahead and move it over there please lol. Woman!

I put up quite a fuss...but guess what...with 24 hours I lugged the 8x8 big ass heavy ass hen house by myself to the new location for her highness.

oh well. Without woman, well lets face it, we'd all be queer

Interested to see how those wet dreams x seawarp come out.are you flowering those early?

Yea, they will likely be in my spring run this year, from seed. I will let them flower out starting next month. Will pull clones off all 3 before I do. If there's a nice enough male, will BX it back to the wet dreams, or the 14 seedlings of seawarp I have going for spring 2016 as well. Just waiting to see what they hold!
