Whats the best way to take a few plants that have been Vegging for about 4 or 5 weeks in Hydro and take em' outdoors?

They have been in Sexing flower for about a week. Any good ways, or should I just start with some rooted clones?

Thanks

well sinful i think your asking the wrong question's. i believe the tougher part is moving plants from hydro into soil. i suppose it would take them a week to adapt to the soil, call me biased but theres no better way to grow weed than outdoor's. it always deliver's the largest plant's. i wouldnt worry about none of than hardening off stuff either, you have well developed plants just put them in a good spot with good sunlight to keep them happy. now my questions for you are. how many hours of darkness are you getting? most plant's need 11 hour's of darkness to start flowering so as long as your under that your good. also just out of curiostiy what strains are they? have a good one sin i hope this outdoor thing rewards you well. you may never go back :chin:

I think you will do just fine with rooted clones. The larger plants done in hydro already will take time to adjust...meanwhile the clones will take right off and prolly catch up . Course the best way to find out is try both. I do believe that "water roots " are diff then "soil roots " and they will take a bit of time to adjust. IMHO
great to hear your doin something outdoors though buddy.

Darkness is about only 7 to 8 hours now. So they would go back to vegging I'm guessing. Thing is I have one hell of a time telling Male from Female preflowers. So these will no doubt be both, and thats ok.

It's been cold and rainy as hell here untill this week. Im in the Prairie, Grass as far as the Eye can see! I'm on a lake so water is no problem, no hunters, neighbors, or over head flying. But Deer and Gofers, Wild Turkeys and Wood Ticks, I can get some Chickenwire to fence it off no ones gonna see it.

I have Mazar and Sliver Pearl along with a few Baccas G13s and some Unkowen Mexi Brick seed that I was impressed with. I will use the smallest of them all to go out side, lack of light, I Germmed a Crap Load of seed this run and have spares!!

Lot of room and lot of Sun ( when it's out ) lot of water too. ( Farmers say too much! ) :badday:

Thanks any more tips more than welcome!

Good to see you again my friend.
I will have both indoor and outdoor I hope to get 2 mabe 3 indoor runs done along with the Outdoor it should be my very best Yeilds todate.
I can only stay here untill the end of October enough time for all of it.

I wish I could buy a place out here, Middle of No Place is nice. I kinda like the open space. I eat better and sleep better as well.

They are very advanced infact, I'm trying to sex em out but Shit I'm so bad at tellin em apart, I'll just plopp the smaller ones out side and let nature do it's job.

Good to hear that the clones should catch up... but I havent cut any yet... tryin to sex em as you have read before.

I'm going to move the Larger Plants to a Large Table tomarrow and then put out the smaller ones.

Oh I also put a Shit Load of Blueberry, and Lionheart F2s under Paper towels tonight and they will go right on outside...... they might be smaller at the end of the Year but I have so many more.

With clones I'll be in Harvest Heaven!!!
Thanks for the notice earlier!
Take care
Much Respect
