You could plant out the plants after harvest, they will reveg no problem providing you leave on some leafs.This usually takes about a month for new growth to appear.

I think thats what i'll do if the timing works out ok ... im thinking of doing 30-40 plants outside but nothings set in stone yet.



good going rocket
best of luck


Cheers GBlade , with any luck we have a record breaking summer for the right reasons, last august was the pits.

They have just went into the flowering room under the 2 x 400w HPS 3 days ago they will get moved directly under the lights when i get wood planks to sit them on the big NFT tray thats in the room . dont want to shock them too quick with the HPS .

HI Mossy

There is defo a noticable difference in the 3 day's that have passed since the last photo's were taken :)

I know what your saying about the stretch i usually works out when at week 3-4 ..well it has in the past lol.

I potted some in B&Q Multi-purpose compost and some in JA.Bowers Multi-purpose compost. The ones in the B&Q stuff look that little bit better than the ones in Bowers stuff. Bowers is really woody but the B&Q is nice and light with hardly any wood in it.

Beechgrove (the gardening proggy on BBC Scotland) did trials on composts last year, B&Q was one of the best they trialed. They used tomatoes, which isnt a million miles away from the plant we grow.
Im gonna buy a huge stack of B&Q in the spring.

Hey mossy

I could believe that the B&Q compost won, its nice and light and has a good smell to it, i ordered some Bio-Biz organic ALLMIX (50L) off of eBay so there will be a good comparison test going on. i got funny looks when i bought the B&Q stuff last week ... i mean who really needs all that compost when its not even the growing season yet lol .But I'm pretty brazen when it comes to that kind of thing thankfully but i bought the pots from Wilkinson's so not to raise too much suspicion in B&Q.

Poly pots are on there way too .
 
ive used band q compost mixed with perilite 80/20,with bio bizz bloom nutes(3ml/ litre every watering) only for last 3small percy grows verry happy with it, keeps em pretty green

your gonna have a lotta seeds if this works out m8 are u on 12/12 yet ?

HI weegie

Ive not used perlite in the B&Q and Bowers pots but the Bio Biz All Mix does have perlite but it still hasn't arrived yet ...DAMN you Royal Mail.

I'm going to feed them Bio Sevia (organic nutes) when they need it , its a bottle i have left over so it might as well get used ..it's worked great with the auto's so I'm hoping it's going to be good for the outdoor seeds . The repotted ones are on 12/12 under the HPS's and they look like they love it :) so the others are going to be about a week behind in development... but that cant be helped right now .

Woo Hoo got my Bio-Biz soil today .. the fat delivery man was sweating when i answered the door ...he said "have you got a dead body in there?" i just smiled and said "where do i sign?" .. in all fairness it was real heavy .

so i'll re-pot them tomorrow as the guy came late tonight.

heres some pics of the plants

Iv'e grown in bnq for 5-6 yrs with no problems, they end up in asda flower buckets, about two gallon, free, The problem with bnq stuff, it can go out of date, always look for the newest pallet load, 25%ish of vermiculite, and off you go.


BnQ, Stuff will see you through for 6-8 week, no need to waste money to grow weed.
