Now i don't usually conduct many outdoor grows on my own so i am no expert. I just usually like helping friends get started that dont want indoor gardens. But i was talking to one of my buddies that i just got back in touch with and he is a very smart considering the cultivation of marijuana. Now the argument we were having is when the best time to start outdoors considering my specific climate. Spring starts in late April and early October is when its time to expect harvest (also depends on strain but that's just for information). I usually recommend waiting to start after the first two solid weeks of warm weather after getting April rain. My friend was saying that planting this early in the year makes the plants stretch as to being so bad that the yield is less compared to starting in mid June. Thats a whole month after i like to start. He claims that starting when the lumens of the sun is at closer to its max will lead to a higher yield and resulting in a shorter bushier plant. I agree with him on evertyhthing except for the yield issue. Because of all my friends and all my outdoor plants have always had good healthy growth the first month, besides slight stretching. So i was hoping to get some input from some other more experianced outdoor growers than myself. All input is appreciated even if its just for arguements sake.
