You have time for multiple harvests with autos. Plant a few each month in Spring and smoke for months through the cold. Don't worry about hours of light as they autoflower, remember? I would plant periodically until about 80 days from your usual first frost.

Hey wizlife, thanks for the add :) I grew last year and based on those results i would defintly wait a few more weeks or until October to start off your first set of auto flowers predicting that you want multiple harvest .. Go on my profile and check out my threads from last year, the plants were underdeveloped there whole life because i started them on 25/8/11 thinking that springs coming up and it should be warm enough.. but no. In my observation, they started growing at a normal pace in mid October-start of november (when the temps at night never went below 15C), and so just to be sure my grow this year will begin on 14/11/12. Hope this helped

yeah I'm doing a multiple harvest but also looking for normal feminized seeds at the moment, not sure if its a good idea to take the risk to buy online at the moment tho.... I'm most likely about to start around October - November since its still raining like hell down in melb and just had a recent storm. i got a few seeds but not sure on what they are.
