Wondering when to take these outside

[thizzness]

Hey all

As you may know, I'm spending a lot of time this summer in the treetops where I've got a small AF grow going with Himalaya Blue Diesel. I'm off to a later start than I expected because of the first 5 seeds I planted, 4 turned out to be male and the only female was a micro pheno runt. I planted the girl outside when she was just starting to show sex and she's doing well considering what I put her through. I took her out on a hot day and kept her in a closed plastic bag for the drive, so by the time I got out there she was incredibly wilted and looked nearly dead. Then I doused her with water and didn't bother to shake it off the leaves so when I checked back a week later a lot of the leaves were badly burned. My bad. But her new growth looks great.

Now I've got some more started, with the oldest being 22 days from germination now. The biggest is starting to grow its 4th set of leaves now and is looking great, would I be safe starting it outside soon? I don't want to wait until they show sex to avoid stunting their growth.

EDIT: forgot to mention, the soil I'm transplanting is organic with nutes already in it. Its not a really strong mix but I'm worried the plants may get burn if I put them out too soon.

Heres the new starts:

and here's the girl out there now and starting to flower:

i would say if the first girl you put out is doing good then get them in the bigger pots asap ! are your night time temps ok this time of year ? ive allways been interested in a tree top style grow be nice if you could put some updates on here as the weeks go by !

The first is doing fine but she had at least 5 sets of leaves when I put her out. These new ones are only just starting to grow their 4th. Nighttime temps are usually in the 50-60s.

And I've got a thread going in the outdoor growers forum. Link in my sig. Check it out

Thizness,

Much respect for your tree toppin style.

Your seedlings are large enough. They should take right off at this size.

The stems look a little thin yet and that can be a problem if it gets windy. Have you had a fan on them to toughen them up?

Its a good idea with real potential.

Thanks for the advice guys. Put em out today and draped some branches and leaves over em so just a little sunlight could get through. They definitely seemed ready and have a strong root system going. Also yeah, the stems are really weak, so I gave em some support stakes. Finally, hit them with some fresh aerated compost tea. Expecting some good results when I check back in a week.
