Hey there fellow consiuers, i am going to be growing outdoors in about 2 weeks to a month, i got one seed germinating well, and another that hasnt popped yet. had six in all but 3 died, and lost one but it was getting very dark so i believe it was dead. i got some CFL's ready to start off the seedling/s but was wondering, sinse im going to be going outside, how log should i have them under the light? i dont want to stress them, i know i should give them a few hours a day outside for a week or so b4 going straight outside, but should i still go 18/6 for the seedling? i'd like to grow indoors of course but... ya,. and when im growing, say i get impatient and want to induce flowering, could i cover the plant with some sort of ventilated dark covering after the 12 hours? or however long? also was thinkin of making a balcony type platform on the southside of this treehouse i built a few years back, would it work to make a trap door to cover the light? idk just kind of lookin for good ideas to grow outdoors, but for high quality rather than high yeild. got an idea of making a sort of tilted roof over the plant, one that will keep rain off the buds (only durin flowering) so they dont rot, or knock of the cannabinoids. not really sure what im specificly asking for, just any tips/tricks in general. but nothing Jorge Cervantes has already said, seen/read alot of his info. just need a big compilation of ideas and techniques that arent already known to most growers, things you do personally and have worked for you. gunna be trying some LSTing, maybe i might top once, and LST both main stems. have you tried it? both topping and LST? wow, this is insane i thoughtr i knew alot until the seed cracked, ill be using some old potting soil i had around, and feedin the plants with miracle gro nutrients. got some all purpose plant food, and some more MG thats for blossoming roses. pretty low budget but its all i got on hand, and not really interested in spending money for doing something thats meant to help me do the opposite :) im cheap. ADVICE would be AMAZING.

dnt worry about exposing them to outside light slow, this imo is bs, ur plant is not going to die, from being exposed to a better light source, dnt force flower, let nature run its cource, youll find that its some work to keep a plant in complete darkness 12 hrs a day to initiate flowering, having to keep putting it into darkness everyday at the same time, and bring it out in the morning, everyday. also ive heard that summertime light is more of a blue spectrum, as oppose to fall being more of a red spectrum. flowering plants respond to the red spectrum more, not to say they wont flower in a blue light spectrum, but its something to consider. u sound like u have some plans in order, just dnt get to crazy, growing is only as complex as u make it, despite popular belief its not difficult to grow cannabis. and LST and topping, try it. u wont be dissapointed, needless to say u wouldnt be the first, id like to top to get 4 colas, let them grow a bit, and supercrop those, im sure it would be a niice plant. but u should have a good season, just preplan, and keep scanning the forums, because theres always more to learn

yeah, im just growing inside under three 13watt clfs for the seedling to get some strength before it warms up, ill figure somethin out, i was just really baked when i posted this and was kinda freakin out that i'd kill my only plant, which (with my luck) is probably going to turn out to be male.

haha yeah good idea, i was guessin if i had enough i could easily spread out like 50 plants out in the woods but thats OVERKILL, if i did i'd go 10 plants max, maybe 15 for room to throw out males but im not sure where to find more seeds and definetly wont be able to order any this season, but i got one plant goin now. sprouted out of the soil on 420! :)
