white widow finishes for me,
resilient plant too, every outdoor grower here got powdery mildew, even my other plants, not white widow.
white widow finishes for me,Greetings All,
I've started this thread to talk about Outdoor Growing in Ontario, Canada. To start things off with,
What strains are working for people in our growing zone here in Ontario? What strains will finish off suitably, outside, from Mid Sept to early Oct? What strains are the largest producers for a commercial crop?
Some strains we've tried but are less than enthusiastic about:
Purple Kush, Deadhead Kush, Blackwater Kush, Boss Hogg Kush, Kandy Kush, and a few other Kush, Skunk, Skunk #1, Northern lights, Blueberry, White Rhino,Emerald Wonder, Kish.
This year, we tried BC Pinewarp, Nigerian Nightmare and Boss Hog Kush. None finished off proper.
We still haven't found the AH..., Oh..., YA Baby...factor. There has to be a couple real gems out there for Ontario, feel free to pipe in. We are looking for Ontario's Finest, Outdoor Commercial Crop!
Cheers from Ontario!
as soon as weather allows it, they are already started indoorsHey Guys jumping on this one for a quick q i'm in Chatham area when all you guys putting your babies out?
Welcome to the farm! I just finished a quick read on the strain sounds like a winner. I grew critical 2 seasons ago and wished I had a longer season the buds were light and airy but covered in trichs and was very strong smoke. I wish wished I had 2 more weeks maybe 3 it cured very well and tastes great I pulled some out todayNew to the forum, trying Critical 2.0 for it's earlier flowering. Plan is to grow outdoors using LST then when ready move to a grow tent and flower as well as control odours..don't want to attract the town kids. Believe me you notice it since legal when out for a fall walk.

hey there either the last week of May maybe 1st week of June I like to put them out on overcast rainy couple of days so they don’t get stressed. I’m just cracking seeds starting tomorrowas soon as weather allows it, they are already started indoors
Holy all star lineup! You’re going to be busy. I use 2 36” and a 24” for about 10 plants and take them to about a month old then outside they go on a couple of rainy days and it off to the racesView attachment 963866
Seeds ready for my 4/20 germination tomorrow! Took them out of the fridge yesterday to acclimatize. I use Jiffy Pucks exclusively and I've had between 95 and 100% germination over the years.
I'm using a new set of T5 lights this year.

I did a test run of my new T5 lights over the last 3 weeks with some "mystery" seeds, and they are looking great! Too bad I have to compost them! Not sure if they are male or female!!(1 gallon fabric pots before I would normally transfer them to their final pots outdoors).View attachment 963868
I use a Super Soil that has been "cooking" for the last 3 weeks. It will be ready for when I transplant the seedlings into their final pots outdoors around May 24th or earlier, if the weather is good. Growing some nice beneficial fungi!!

Looking good! Stay in touch friends
So this years outdoor I’m running LVTK and LVTK OG and Gorilla Wreck 4 fems from Cannaventure. Cowboy Kush from Greenpoint. And Nuken from BC. seed king that’s the plan had really good results from Nuken last year but it was bug prone tuff one to grow but I stayed on it and it paid off great smoke
yoh skip that’s awesome man! I tried something different this time I let my seeds soak for about 24 hrs in distilled water till they sank to the bottom of the cup then I put them in paper towel in the heated tray till they were showing 1/2 in OG tail then into my soil tray under the t5’s I haven’t checked them yet but I’m sure some are up this morning the other seeds will probably be ready to go in the dirt today. I’ve never used the peat pucks I’m old school but you may convince me to give them a try good job buddy!View attachment 965117
Since this photo was taken I've had 100% germination!! Expected around 80%, so they've exceeded my expectations!!
Thanks brother and good luck with your grow!! Try a couple of the Jiffy Pucks next time and see if you like them!! . . . ✌yoh skip that’s awesome man!

Going to give some of them a weak feed todayLooking good kinda looks just like mine only had 1 dud
generally seedlings don’t need any food until the two roundGoing to give some of them a weak feed today
Hey thanks for the info.i won’t give them much at all .16 cc in 500 ml.Then just water and repeat I’m currently giving them 2 tbsp every other day ish depending on my weight. GH nutes are pretty safe to use on seedlings or so I’ve found in the past. Let’s wait and see if they respond well to it they were thirstygenerally seedlings don’t need any food until the two round
cotyledons are dying off, meaning the seedling has come see ip the nutrients that came within the seed.
usually 3-4 nodes they’ll die off.. very little water also is needed.
