in mendo n light dep ?

[Redbeardthewook]

Hey question about light dep what's the latest in men do you can start a light dep. Like in the next week could I plant an run some extra lights for a month an then let them flower naturally?

 

[usually]

Thats not light dep. Thats just a late outdoor. Most likely it wont sell or smoke 'naturally' if you try to use December for October.

yea that isnt light dep. thats just a late outdoor. u can do it, but u wont yield much. plants start flowering in the next 2-3 weeks give-or-take. But if thats all the space u have then go for it. id suggest getting clones/teens if possible.
most people in mendo that i know of will do dep in late winter-early spring, then full term. Or they will do nothing but dep.

 

[Redbeardthewook]

So what would recommend doing or would you run a dep with lights.

 

[jackel]

Well I'd use as much free light (sun) as possible then supplement light in a few weeks, then u can just flower them. They will be getting winter sun which isn't the strongest.

sun light is way less free then electricity imo. you don't have to do much for electric to pay for itself. takes more thinking capabilities to use sun light.

Thanks guys I am just going to be working on my uncles farm an he has a empty greenhouse an said I could do whatever for the next 5 months while out working. I guess even bud don't come out the greatest can always freeze right away chop an wash some for the smelty or much some shatter.

In some areas, you get decent sunshine in the late fall/ early winter.

And that decent sunshine is better than or comparable to HID lighting.

The plants just needed to be protected from temp extremes.

Propane heater lol, this is just a learning experience all around something to play with having extra room an just reusing dirt an top dressing the living soil so really only cost is clones an heaters later on.

If u actually think that then u are a fool
