Welcome one of my previous neighbors of the Des trois, hopefully you're one of those folks that grow not to make it rain but for the beauty of the plant?

Generally I grow for a number of reasons.. First off, I love growing things, I love growing things that produce something I can use.. (I keep bees and make maple syrup also!) I grow so that friends and family don't have to buy. Especially now that I can give 30g away at a time legally! My wifes mother is 90 and and constant pain at that age, we keep her supplied with edibles, no way she could afford them otherwise.

Where abouts in Northern O...Timmins? I've spent a lot of time up that way over the years. Just curious. :)

 

[Prospector]

Between North Bay and Sudbury, but Ive spent plenty of time in Timmins... all over the north for that matter.

[Prospector]

WOOT!

 

[Rooke]

WOOT!

Welcome fellow Ontario grower! I hope your auto flowers do well up there. Is the season so short that you can’t grow photo period plants up there if you start them inside? Not that I’m against auto’s just wondering.

 

[Prospector]

No.. the seasons long enough Early May to mid late sept.. biggest problem is dealing with mold at the very end when it gets dewy and colder in the evenings. Always a challenge. A bit easier now that its legal, can grow in more open spots now with more breeze.

Hi, I'm new here as well, It's great now that we can come out from the shadows. I'm a 67 year old Nova Scotian transplanted here from Vancouver B.C. 25 years ago and the weather here sucks. As you said the growing season is too short to allow them to ripen, with fog,cold & mold. I gave up trying outdoors, with these new (to me) Auto flowers I might have to rethink that though, it would be nice to get some free energy for a change. Anyways Greetings from the East and I hope you get a long warm Fall to let your girls flourish.

Oh, and how does your location get the North Ontario classification? I just looked at the map and you're only about 230 miles from the USA border in a province a couple of thousand miles long, seems south to me lol wtf's up with that?

 

[Prospector]

LOL.. We are considered the gateway to the north lol.. but your correct... were the southernest part of the north!

Well Southern Ontario is getting the short end of the stick there isn't it? Is there such a thing as S Ontario or is the rest of it just Ontario? I'm so confused, lol time for another bowl.
