Have my ups an down bout my 1st go around outside but non the lease a learning experience! Learned alot of what to do to better myself next yr. An thats what matters! Im 27 on the 8th so I got plenty of time to master my outdro techniques! Still think it was the top feed GrowIlla by botanicare I used, did excellent in veg but lacked in flower I think In my opinion.. but still gunna be a tasty harvest! The trichomes are there but not the size, mainly, jus my willies tho an I have had this strian for the past 4 yrs so makes me sad they didnt compete with the others out side like they do inside maybe they jus dont like the eastern Washington weather, dunno my fault for doing more of them then the others.. but none the less a learning experience!

I'm in eastern wa too bro. Everyone local I know finishes every year unless they try to finish without cover and then it's almost always because of mold and not the cold. round these parts most seem to go until the end of October. Later if you don't mind using heaters in the greenhouse. Seal up your vents at night and use 55 gallon barrels full of water if your worried. they heat up all day and keep it warm at night. My greenhouse still gets up to about 90 during the day when theres sunshine, bout 75 if its cloudy and hasn't hit less than 42 at night (except the one night I left the vents open, then it got down to 35 :???:). I can go about another month before I get worried and I live close the hills so outside it's already getting down into the low 30's. If keeping them warm isn't an option get some early strains there are plenty that finish at the end of September. Gl to ya!

Your MK is way ahead of mine. I've probably got 3 weeks left, all easy. But I believe she is going to be my biggest girl. 4 guys can't reach around her joining arms.
(I'm going to have to get some new photos up tomorrow/today)

Yee definitely keepin the Willies in longer, an throwing a heater in there, My other strains got bout 2weeks left Im guessing around the 18th, there showing red hairs, havn't hit em with a scope yet. But my Willie are still all white, So was gunna run em tell end of Oct. at least. And what you mean by the 55 gal barrels? To help hold the bottom of the tent vents down? an its been about 45 around my parts at night, an suppose to hit the 30 mid/late Oct according to the my weather app on the phone.. But the rest of my girls are up to speed.. Do you think I should throw some heaters in now? or wait tell it drops a lil colder? I like the purpling affect, but have been told stop producing resin/thc after 60-70 degrees, don't know if its true was jus told that by a oldschool grower long time ago. an to be honest jus barely remembered tell now talking bout temps of outside.. cause my inside op, never gets that cold, but dealing with outside weather is a new ball game for me..

The 55's you fill with water. They warm up all day and since water cools so much slower than air it keeps the greenhouse warm at night, won't work when it gets too cold during the day though since the water still has to get warm. I wouldn't bother with a heater till the greenhouse hits 39. 40 and above is cool for outdoor and I have one friend who goes to Nov and never uses any kind of heat, his finish just fine but after 35 or so growth seems to slow. Never seen resin production stop unless the plant starts dying though, the cold seems to stimulate it if anything.
