Hi everyone I live in Southern California and I was wondering how many of you actually grow all year round outdoor. How many of you grow outdoor during the winter season here in California. I did it last winter with good results

I'm currently on my second outdoor crop for this year. I harvested my winter crop in mid February I put down 2 plants (213 OG clone and La Diva from Delicious seeds) in September of 2013. The La Diva was finished by November 29th.

About 2 days after harvesting I received another 213 OG clone and 5 days after that I received 2 more 213s. I also started to putting down seeds all different strains:

Shiskaberry
White Widow (Royal Queen Seeds)
Big Bud (Vision)
Tijuana (Blimburn)
Northern Lights Auto (Royal Queen Seeds)
Think Different Auto (Dutch Passion)
Critical Auto (Blimburn)
Amnesia Original Auto (Dinafem)
213 OG (from seed)
and 10 bag seeds that were given to me by someone who had been collecting them for 20 years

By mid March all the 213 OGs started to flower.

As of April 16 2014 Northern Lights, 213 (seed and clones) are the only ones flowering.

So that's my crop. There are a few more but none of them are really flowering yet. I did start flushing 2 of the 213 clones and more to come on that.

Back to my original question.
How many of you Cali growers grow year round OUTDOOR? tips or tricks?

and

Any of you try DWC outdoor in SoCal? I'm thinking about giving it a shot want to know if any of you have any good tips or tricks on running DWC outdoor?

Thanks.

I was just talking about the aquaponics with my girlfriends dad and he was so into it. We eventually want to get a aquaponic system going but at the moment I'm looking at trying to run a DWC outdoor at my place. Maybe just one bucket at first.

I was spraying water and Iso alcohol but they kept coming back

This year toward the end of my winter harvest like 1 day before I harvested I got a minor aphid infestation. I was able to just pluck the leaves and that was it.
