Im out here in New York rightnow the temperatures are from 40-65 F. Would it grow if i plant it in ma backyard at low degrees?
 
what strain? im pretty sure its going to get much colder than that. and those temps im pretty sure are enuff to kill a plant. try to keep her indoors till the last frost around feb. and flower her then
 
ya inside i live i cali and it gets to cold at night for them. just wait till spring till be worth the wait
 
Yeah its to late into winter now to start a grow outdoors in North America. If you live in New York you probably wont be able to get plants out till April.
 
and its almost done i live in south florida. i can plant some more and they will grow to the coldest it gets out here is in the low 60s but when the sun is out its around high 70's.
 
jeeze, people. the temperature isn't the only concern. the photo period of wintertime will immediately cause the little plant to flower and you'll have a tiny bud growth by an immature plant so the THC content will be very low.

gorw indoors during the winter.
 
Absolutely right closet cult, short hours make buds, but if it was warmer you can fool the plants by turning on a spotlight in the yard when it gets dark. Not a reality in the woods, but in a yard near electric it's possible. I live in CT and spring planting outside with hardened off plants works best after May 10th depending on strain. Earlier , the ground is too cold. New York City has about the same seasons as CT. If the weeds die off then the weed won't grow.I don't know your specifics but you can grow small portable plants in a makeshift greenhouse late into the season but they must come in on cold days and at night. Give it a couple years, with global warming you'll be growing year round
 
temperature isnt the only concern but its the biggest. if thats wrong it dosnt mater if everthing else is perfect.
I live in NY too, all the way south, so I qould have warmer temps here I think? and theres noway to grow outside, its going to be freezing and stay freesing for awhile soon.

HAHAHA!!!
I live right near the water in NYC so in a few years we should be under water:blsmoke:
 
from what i have read, the best results in growing outdoor is to start seedling plants in april-may, just like mother earth does.

keeping a plant in veg thru the winter does NOT guarentee an extra large plant or harvest. in fact, for reasons which i cant remember, a seed started in may will out size and out yeild one that is over-wintered.

so there is no good reason to try to grow a plant outdoors, in the wintertime. (except those places where winter days are no different then summers. but then, when do you harvest?) so, you will have to wait almost a year for harvest and it the yield wont even be worth it.
 
It hasnt snowed here yet, but stil water outside is frozen. but some weeds are still alive? theres some nettles in my backyard looking fine, and some oter stuff I cant rememeber.
 
thats pretty cool. It flowers all year?
I have some... mums? that still have green foliage... but maybe their supost to live year round. I have no idea
 
yeah my grandfather from italy, when he moved here he had a grow room down in his basment. he use to combine diffrent strands of plants and make hybrids. my dad said he did some other things to that were green with a bud, lol.

so i learn from him. this flower outside blooms all year long i have to trim it once the tops die
 
It's like asking can you grow marijuana in a cave, or on the sun or moon.. You can't go against nature, unless you do it indoors.
