I’m not too far away from you. Thanks for the info. We’ve been having a lot of rain and cold weather, so June makes sense. 30 or 40 gallon pots. Wow! They must get pretty big, which is what I’m looking to accomplish. So you don’t do any protection such as a screen over the plants? Thanks for the vote of confidence!Northern Sacramento Valley here. From mid June to mid September over 100 almost every day with nice low humidity. Probably less than 20% most days climbing to 40 or 50% at night. I use medium size light colored cloth pots. 30 or 40 gallon. amend and reuse soil. Which was originally FFOF. I would keep it in veg and put it out the first week of June just to be on the safe side with premature flowering. Then let her do her thing and keep watering. Water and recharge is all my girls get throughout the summer. Darkness is important at night. Mine are grown outback with no ambient light and I’ve never seen a caterpillar. You can pull it off.
Thanks again neighbor. I'm South of you, also in the Central Valley. Sorry, just one more question. When did you start flowering? Since I'm an indoor farmer, my thoughts are that you start in the Fall, but on a flowering that takes 8 - 9 weeks, I would imagine you would want to start sooner, say mid September? Thanks again for your insight.No mine don’t get very big. Be lucky to get a pound a plant. The large pots help keep the roots Cool. but the quality is excellent. I bend mine. So the lowers turn into colas. trees are too hard to maintain. No screens. Full sunlight and darkness. last summer was a walk in the park. Didn’t have to spray for any pest or any reason. That’s the benefit of darkness. And I grow them away from all other plants if I can do it.
Thanks! I’ll definitely look her up@TSD - I bet she has some crucial tips. If I was gonna go outdoor growing (just not an option here for so many reasons) i'd def search her posts up. Tons of info and experience
I’m in Modesto. We get weather comparable to Sacramento.Get more specific about where you are growing. OMG. Every location is different. I am in red Bluff California.
