Now is still a pretty good time.
Until mid July i think it´s doable.
But my experience is very limited.
Looking forward to more educated opinions.

Depends on the finished size of the plant you want. For a mature plant I wouldn't sow after the end of June but if your growing autos then it doesn't really matter with in reason.

If it's not an auto flowering I would say now is the time to plant outdoors (during June), saying that so far it has been abysmal up north.

Good luck to all that plant outdoors in the UK, it's always a battle!!

july is fine, the plant wont get so big before flowering but ive had an oz or so of a plant sowed in july. try and get them off to a good start so that they grow vigorously .

A lot bigger than that to be honest.
