Hi guys.
I have several questions and I'm sure you will be able to help me out with some advice.
I have spent some time by studying the process and have prepared quiet well for this grow.
This will be my first outdoor grow. I'm located @57th lat. As you can imagine, I chose some of the HFH strains after reading so much good things about the genetics for northern climates.

I contacted Esben and ordered some seeds. (Thanks for some freebies, Esben) Here is a list of what I have for this year:

13 The Monk
05 Danish Gold
05 Leb27S
05 Leb27 V2
13 Wild1

To kickstart it, I have seedlings 24/0, 24/under some LEDs for several days now, first green things are starting to appear. In 10 days or so I'm planning to move them under 400 MH light. Would use 20/4 for a while and gradually synchronize to the reality outside, which at the time of bringing them outdoors would be around 16-17h of daylight.

So here are some questions:

1) I have prepared some nice spots, but the area is limited and I would like to avoid killing males outside. How long might it be under the 400mh until I can see the sex of the plant?

2) Having the previous question in mind, what would be the best grow bag size for this period? I would like to save some space indoors under the MH, so would be good to know how small of a pot is not too small?

3) I would also like to do some topping and later LST when outside - I'm wondering what is the best time for topping? Inside under the MH or better to start it outdoors?

I guess that it at the moment. Thanks in advance for your replies!

hay,
this is actually my fisrt reply here ever.
I've done outdoors and indoors for long time - but i have never been satisfied with the plants for outdoors. please pm where i could get DANISH GOLD, LEB27S, LEB27V2, Im really interested in Leb27.

about your questions:

1) indoors will be faster than outdoor, but sex starts to show around 30-50 day, depends on many factors.

2) best pot for pre-growing for outdoors is 10x10x20h cm pot. very compact and you get great long main root. for pre grow i use 20/6 light cycle until i put them out. its good to give them rest and you want them to develop strong root system for the summer. when they are 30-40 cm tall i'd say it time to put them outside, but if its too cold during the night id keep for 1-2 weeks inside.

3) dont top them, let them grow naturally. but if you want do that 1-3 weeks before they start to flower.

Good luck, pm me
