Hi All! First post here, and planning a first outdoor grow in central Ohio.
My already-obtained femininzed autoflower seeds:
Wedding Cake
White Widow
Grandaddy Purple
Plans:
Paper towel germination
- should I get a heat source, and if so, what?
Start in: peat pots
Misc. questions:

Misc. questions:
- How many seeds should I attempt to germinate and plants to grow?
- What's a good soil to start in? I have a bag of FoxFarm Ocean Forest that's been sitting around, opened, for YEARS. I've read that it's probably way too nutrient-rich from 'cooking' for so long.
- Is there any advantage in getting the seedlings going indoors for a while? What's the minimum I can get away with, light-wise? Can I use my regular old 4' fluorescent fixtures?
- I'll transfer to larger containers when the time comes. How do I recognize that time? What size containers will I need? Can I use the old Ocean Forest soil at that time?
- The reason I'll be using containers rather than ground is - besides having more control - I want to be able to hide them from potential company. On a related note, what are some recommended methods to protect them from pests and kids? In Ohio, growing is legal, but it's supposed to be "secured" - recommendations?
- What about general concealment from neighbors? I was thinking they need to be in away from walls, etc. to get full sun - correct? I'd like to think I can install privacy fence on the 2 sides of the yard that need it (behind-neighbor has one on their property already), but that may not happen in time.
- Timing? I was thinking of having them outside June 1 based on the timeframes mentioned in the above seed links and for maximum sun and avoiding potential cold snaps. My neighbor, with some experience in this matter, was urging me to get them going now for some reason.
