Hey Gramps, if I started vegging indoors in May (seeds coming May 1st) and then started gradually putting them outside in the ground in June, could I still have a successful harvest by September or so? Growing OG Kush fems from DNA genetics.

Sure why not ? if everything is done right / Taken care of and the right genetics you could have pounds .

They should start flowering in mid August if you get them out that early. Then they would be finished in mid October give or take, and if theyāre indica or hybrid. Sativa can take 16 weeks and can be started flowering indoors early and finish the last 8 weeks outside naturally. Or, let them start flower naturally outside and bring in to finish.
Mid October is the average finish date for most places.

This length of this thread is beyond scrolling, Iāve tried. so some sort of soil recycling happening? Black mail of a landscaping company? I donāt think I could afford to grow diamond trees at those amounts with fancy box store soillesses. I just all spent all week raking leaves and sticks and pine cones and what have you, ones I should have dealt with last fall , that, plus dead garden plant material and I would guess add some sort of a manure source. ( chickens from next door visit all the time here lol) stuff like that?

Manure from Horses / Cows / Goats / Sheep and donated soil from grows gone bad I borrowed a skid steer and dump trailer . We also have a large organic veggy patch so loads of turkey manure or whatever is cheap or free .

Its been years since Iāve seen the bottoms but no ! the roots just circle the bags massive root structure by the end of the season . I just flood the bags it takes a while for the water to leach out but stops salt buildup . All the old roots help to keep the soil loose the bags were bone dry no rain to speak of this spring . I turned the soil with a shovel and raked then dug a hole twice the size of the one gallon pots . Filled with water 2 times then planted I donāt mess with the roots . I just turn the starts upside down and shake out fill around them firm a little and water again .
