Hi
I am new to this forum. I have read quite a lot of material in last few days and I have done that in the past as well.
I have managed to grow some of cannabis outdoors but this is the first time I will do it indoors + outdoors and also this is the time I will set up my indoors for the first time (I have worked indoors growing with my friend for 1 session and it worked fine but not spectacular..).
I have bought seeds from AMS and received 5 seeds of Crystal rain feminized (55% indica/45% sativa)+ 10 random seeds.
What I would like to do this year is:
- Grow all 15 plants inside in vegetative grow for 1 month. After 1 month I will transfer some of the plants outside to corn field.
- After 1 month (depending on the size of plants) I will start with 12/12. After 4 weeks of flowering stage I will move some of the plants outside to corn field and keep 2 or 3 plants inside to finish under HPS.
What I want to achieve is to force some of the plants into flowering mode but then put them outside to finish with flowering under the sun. Because the corn fields are taken down around 15.9. I want those plants to finish faster and that they will be ready for harvest like at the end of july or mid august (depending on how the process will go).
So the plan is something like:
- 5-7 plants veg inside for one month then put them out
- 5-7 plants veg inside for one month then 1 month inside under 12/12 to force them into flower mode then put them out to finish outside
- 2-3 plants finish indoors
How does that plan sound?
The other thing is that I must be aware of FLIR and helicopters, because they are quite active always in our area, even though I don't live in a city. They become especially active at harvest time and they look for cannabis inside corn but don't find if there is not too many plants in small space.
The picture included shows my house position. On the picture you can see that:
In the morning - I could probably use mylar to reflect sun light into my plants. After 11am sun light does not reach my window so at that time I would turn on HPS and let HPS run until 1am (14hours if sunny day or 18h if bad weather) next day. I could also use my balcony after 17.00 till around 20.00 for some plants.
I would like also like to protect myself against FLIR cameras. I believe that if I thermally isolate my window after I turn on HPS and let the heat and air flow through my appartment, my rooms should not appear suspicious. My balcony is not easily reachable by helicopter and FLIR because it has quite nice position between buildings. But the other side must be isolated or light turned off when copters will be searching for farms.
How does this plan sound to you?
Any opinion and advice is welcome. Is there something else very important to think about.
And here is my position on the map of europe..
