I also have a little patch of lawn, next to my kitchen window. This place would be ideal to grow a big plant in spring/summer but normal photoperiod plants wouldn't be able to flower due to the residual light from the kitchen. Would the Lebanese plants not care about this either? Could they have a full flowering cycle like this with no issues or increased hermie risks?
That's a hallway sir. But thanks for.your help.That's one brightly lit kitchen..

I may have missed that episode haha.
As for my kitchen light, the spot is 2m away from the kitchen window. I use the same kitchen window to prevent my other plants from flowering, 25m away. The day I want them to start flowering, I move them behind the wall and they start flowering immediately.
Edit: I actually went to measure the distance It's more like 15-18m, not 25.
Well to be fair to you, I discovered this by accident last summer when I moved here, I didn't think they would be prevented from flowering either, and placed the plants on the end of the terrace. But they weren't flowering by august 20th or so (some of them afghan), and that's how I realised it was the kitchen window.Really, wow. Well I stand corrected. But are you planning to keep other plants from flowering this year? I guess you don't need to keep the kitchen lights on all night if not.. Being far away from the equator that is totally foreign to me, I want them flowering sooner rather than later.
Most definitely it can. For a good reference on the amount of light that can break the night cycle threshold, you can just grab a book and try reading it. If you can't, it's a good sign and there's a high probability that the light contamination isn't enough to trigger them.It's Kenny Rogers Roasters, from beyond the hallway and the apartment across the hallway.
But come on man.. The light from your kitchen won't mess up a plant in your garden. You're overthinking it.
Thanks for the recommendation, but I am not looking for autoflowering strains. I would rather grow photoperiodic plants and force flower them. I just wanted to try the lebanese because I am looking for CBD rich hashplants, and because it is somewhat autoflowering I was wondering if I can use it in this fashion.Most definitely it can.

If you can, it will most certainly be enough light pollution to pose a problem.
I don't recall the exact mmol/m2/h of photons, though often times it isn't useful since it's rare for one to have access to such sensors.
I would suggest a straight day-neutral/autoflowering variety over one that has auto flowering tendencies aka semi-auto.
A friend of mine was delighted with his Zamaldelica auto.
Have fun!
In general it means that plants will start to flower after reaching a certain age. Or when they feel rootbound.so a quick question..
semi autoflowering... does that mean there is a/are pheno(s) that do no autoflower? if so, what kinda ratio do they show up in..
@dubi & co. I have a few questions about the Lebanese and thought to ask them here in case they would be helpful to anyone else. I am not used to autoflowering plants, so they are mainly about this subject.
My plan for next year is to have 2-3 outdoor crops, using light deprivation when needed.
Let's say I started growing the lebanese plants in march/april (43º N). I assume the plants would start flowering when their biological clock triggers, and would ignore the increase in daylight hours that would happen during their flowering, correct? That way I could use them as some people use commercial autos for a spring harvest, without having to bring them inside to deprive them from light.

Lastly, as I told you before dubi, for this year I would like to just try out the Lebanese and would rather not have them grow too big because I already have too many plants. After growing them in a smaller 7L pot, would they benefit from transplanting them to a bigger pot once the stretch is finished? I mean would this benefit the bud production, without allowing the plants to get too big? If yes, what would be the best timing for the transplant?
Thanks,
