When should I start my plants indoors for outside growing? I live in central PA Thanks
I did mine in jiffy peat pods In A dome. 2 to 3 daysWhen germinating should I leave them in the water until they sprout? Someone said they drown. How do you guys do it.
I do what Mother Nature does - direct sow to soil.When germinating should I leave them in the water until they sprout? Someone said they drown. How do you guys do it.
Goof post. I've been growing from seed in a tent, but am tempted to try an outside grow. So I'm ignorant about outdoor growing. Doesn't it also depend on when there is 12 hours light and dark to start flowing? Is May the month on the east coast for 12 light/12 dark? I live in CA and we've had some pretty cold weather for this time of the year which is why I'm asking.
Here in MA i start getting pre flower sight showing beginning of to mid july. GIve or take a few weeks depending on the cultivar. I usefully try to get my seedlings out in the sun around middle of april beginning of May . I harvest mid october the cultivar i grow goes a little long (10+ weeks) due to it having Durban Poison as it dominate parant.Goof post.

I look back and wonder how big they would be if I had them in my tent with humidity. 3 days and all the new seedlings look like they will surpass the older ones. I would not have planted 17 more in the interim. Life lesson learned, if you have a tent just set it up and then start. I've had the tent for 2 months, and i set it up Saturday. Let the race begin.I dropped my first on 2/5, now I can't stop and their ages are all staggered.
Sounds awesome.Full Moon today. I live in MA and IM starting right this second. lol. Just started germinating the seeds I made last summer from back crossing my Texada Time warp back on itself. I was running low on texada seeds got a beefy terpy male so I kept him got my 4 other ladys full of seed. Now Im stacked on Texada Time Warp seeds. She's amazing for outdoor. super harty does really well here in the north east.
To answer ELectroguys question I use peat starter plugs and a dom and t5 samsung led seed starter lights. I do want to upgrade this setup soon. It was cheap and works good. a heat mat that you can control the temp is also a good thing to have especially if you live in a colder climate area like me.
I have a question. You mentioned starting Sativas early? Is that so they grow bigger?We're in very upper NY. I can probably put them out May 15th if the weather permits but I gotta look at the forecast. That means I'll start indoors around April 1st, but I'll probably get a few Sativas started before that. I mean, here we are at March already......
Are you asking that so you can say it doesn't matter how early you start them, they will still have to flower for the same amount of time once they flip after the solstice? Because now you don't have to cause I just did lol. I'm sure there's tricks people use, like flipping to flower before planting... but that's just asking for a reveg or herm if you ask me lol.I have a question. You mentioned starting Sativas early?
