Need Mentor outdoor Mid-Coast Maine

Hi, I have grown cannabis the last 2 seasons.

Season 1 were bagseed from GG#4. I was successful, however, I had to cut down in mid October due to weather and mold popping up. There was plenty trichs and if I had a little more time it would have been great.

Season 2 I bought Auto Northern Lights and there were Original Skunk #1 seeds thrown in. Those turned out to be photo periods. I got mold with the Northern Lights probably because I trained them and it got away from me, mold near the end So had to cut down before it’s time. The Skunks produced bountifully but I ran out of good weather deep in October and had to cut down.

The long of it is, the quality of the high was just okay and nothing really special.

I would like to be able to correspond with someone from time to time in the same region as me, mid coast Maine, who has the experience and know how. I am planting in a few 5 gallon buckets and can move them around my yard to follow the sun.

I was thinking of going with Quebec Black Gold this year as the growing season is less. I would consider Auto’s again if recommended.

Anyway, I hope to hear from someone in my area. Thank you.

That’s not an issue here.

I am looking just to be able to text and email.

Not many want to let people in the circle. Why not just communicate here. Look for gardening seminars and courses local. It doesn’t have to be cannabis class.

What were your challenges outdoors ? Pests weather timing ? I see you’ve been here since 2016 and have completed grows so what area are you trying to improve?

Want to see a huge difference in quality guaranteed?
Move indoors !

That’s what it takes if you want ripe. That’s for sure
