I will have a lot of rain in sept in my area, and I do not want to wait until sept/oct to harvest. I'm thinking of starting northern lights indoors and forcing flower as early as possible. Say I germinate mid may, veg for two weeks, then flower for two weeks, sex them, and plant outdoors after last frost. (yes last frost comes this late sometimes where I live) I'm not too concerned with yield. If I grow 4 plants, 500g is plenty for me, just for personal use and close friends, nor do I want a plant larger than 5 feet. ( I would actually like it as comapct as possible for stealth) 2. Also, I have read briefly of plants returning to veg??? Is this possible? This will be my first grow. Thanks a bunch, I'm learning so much.

1. Will the plants continue to flower for the normal 8-9 weeks enabling me to harvest mid august?
2. Also, I have read briefly of plants returning to veg??? Is this possible?
3. Are there any other tricks to get them to flower quickly?

its not a good idea to do that can you finish them indoors? all kinds of things could happen if you induce flowering then move outside that time of year the most common thing that ive seen happen is the plant could herm either way the buds will not be what they should be. peace

Thanks. I cannot grow inside until harvest 1. I dont have the room for mature plants and 2. odor 3. just not enough privacy in general. I can't and don't want to go to the outdoor grow site every day to but a box over the plants. I don't want to use lowryder 2, but maybe its my only option if my plants will turn into hermies. Any more opinions on flowering indoors then planting outside?

Outdoor growing - Colder climate found this article. what are your opinions? this is exactly what i want to do. Induce flowering indoors then it will get more vertical growth as well as bud growth.

first off if you started them now you could never get them to flower without covering them, second, 500 grams off 4 tiny plants???? are you insane, you would need a nice 5-6 foot plant with average yields to pull 125 grams per plant. that could not possibly be done outdoors if rushed from almost no veg to half assed flowering.

lol you're so funny beaner. think a minute would you? what is the purpose of a question in a thread? it's because i don't know the answer, i'm new to this. enough with the hate comments. go back to your miserable life. any other info folks?

you asked a question that would have easily been answered by reading the faq, i told you your goals were unatainable by all but the most experienced growers. sorry to let ya down but weed plants arent magic and i don't write hate mail. good luck on your grow but your going to have to be realistic to get a harvest....

yeah well the search feature doesn't work very well. new people ask questions and the more experienced answer them. If it bothers you beaner, be an adult and just look away. Thanks all.

I read in high times in an article that this process does work. Don't worry bout the haters, I would try and at least force the flower for 3-4 weeks then place outside. Your yield will be small....but you can only do what you can do under the circumstances.
