How do you do light dep outside with a tarp? Do you have to place the tarp on and off everyday? You would still get sun leaks and possible Hermie . Honestly don’t understand outside light dep. some people do it in green houses Or so I see they call it that but I don’t see a tarp or cover on the green house .

Yep you cover the green house or plant with a tarp at the same time everyday and take it off again. We just finished a spring greenhouse grow this way. We had plants in the ground outside in Oregon the first week of March and started pulling tarps about 2 weeks later. We harvested about a week ago now.

Some fancy greenhouses have automatic covers that slide over the whole place to dep it.

I used a plastic trash can. It was very wet inside in the morning when I pulled it off!

That is how I got this Mulanje/Mozambique (MuMo) cross to finish so fast:

Smelled like Bubblicious Bubblegum on the plant. Smelled like rank cat piss while drying. Smelled like pineapple and black pepper cured in the jar.

Cheers,
Mo

yup, what thundercat said. I take the tarp back off when the sun goes down so its not covered all night. Light leaks are for indoor grows it seems. Never had any herm issues doing it this way and I can often see the odd branch poking its head out the tarp:) so yeh, you can be as anal as you want, or a bit slap dash about it like me and still get away with it hehe.
