Growing in Eastern Ontario

Heyy this year im thinking of doing my first grow. ive decided that i am going to grow outdoor. i no this is early but i just wanna get my facts.
I live in southern ontario if i am starting from seed what time of year should i plant it. I am going to be ordering Lethal Purple from great white seed co.
Also what kinda of nutrients i am going to need.

.................bump.

Have some plants strong and ready to go into the ground somewhere around or slightly after May 24. I don't know anything about Lethal Purple, but you're looking for the fastest finishing strains you can find to beat the frost. The season is short and, depending on the year, the fall can be brutal. Mold resistance is also key. Your plants may grow like crazy all summer, then the cold, wet season hits and you've got a beautiful field of rotten bud. If you can get your plants in before October really sets in you have the best chances. Here's hoping this season is ideal! (We don't need rain every day.)

Im from southern Ontario my self
I start my plants indoors around mid april then harden them off around early may,
then stick em into the ground at my plot
as far as Nuts go I would use Organic ones makes the smoke just that much better
if ya need any more help just PM me

You may want to give them an extra week or two before putting them outside, more towards late May. Eastern Ontario always seems to have a last burst of cold, and I've froze my ass off on many a May 2-4 Weekend.

How was last fall in southern Ontario, Willie? I'd imagine not too far off from ours...grey and raining everyday. My tops started to go to slime, harvested a field of bottoms...no complaints though, smoked well. I used Advanced's outdoor sow release ferts, along with all the sheep manure in the beds. And didn't have to water once thanks to the rain.

Here's hoping to a bumper crop in Ontario for '09.

same fall here in nova-scotia!! blueberries didnt thrive nearly as much as years past!!

im thinking of going to go with Joint Doctors AK47 Auto x Lowryder #2 . instead of lethal purple . quick harvest time 9 weeks from seed . if i were to start them inside how long should i keep them inside before i put them out

i live in canada also iam planing on growing 50 outdoor plants and iam goin to veg indoors for about a month then put them out

ok if i just wanna start vegging like 3 plants in side using cfl's how much light should each plant need.

ok so for the month i veg indoor using cfls how much light or lumens should i have per plant?

well my plan is to start growing the plants indoor starting like the first week of may keep them indoor for like 2-3 weeks them put them outside. i be growing the auto flowering ak47 x lowryder 2 will this work out?

does anyone know if this plann will work or noot?

auto ak only takes 10-12 weeks from seed but, they require alot of sun/light to grow to full potential. you want to put them out when your area has the most sun/daylight hours, early summer into full summer lots of light! check out .farmersalmanac. if you havent already.

you will yeild more if you grow an "early" strain that will finish in your area on time. autos are cool but, i wouldnt grow them as a main outdoor crop. not tryin to steer you away from it but, to harvest a decent amount for your effort/$ you have to stagger multiple rounds of them, when you could just grow an early strain (one round) and harvest potentially more with less involvement per season.

peace!

thanks for they help, got me thinking.........

do u know of any early finishing strains that are good for growing in southern ontario?

i live in NY so no, not from experience. just do some research you will find somethin that you like. femminized seeds make outdoors way easier and, well worth the money unless you want to propegate seeds. germinate indoors when threat of frost is gone veg a couple weeks and, harden off. all the while prepping your plot/s. good organic soil mix, chicken wire, mulch, bloom fert(for the fall), and shitloads of water

goodluck
the simpiler you keep it the better.
dont tell a soul!
peace out.

is it completly necisary to veg for a couple weeks inside first?? what if i just germ inside and then plant it right away outside?
