hi chazrazz good strain choice for s/w you could be harvesting the purple pheno come september.the others october at the latest imo.plant them asap bud to be looking at an 8/10 week veg as they will kick in to flower come mid july/ish. i would start them under lights if possible and mimic the natural daylight hours we are recieving at the moment then when you come to plant out they should be no confusion of them adjusting as your giving them the same amount of daylight hours inside.all the best

Hello Chazrazz, fluorescent's light how much W have? How much ladies? If you grow over 4 plants i suggest you minimum 250W light for 6-8 week, after put them outdoor only for 5-6 hours a day for 1 week ( the rest of the time under lights ). After this cicle you can put your ladies outdoor for a big harvest

Good smoke friend!

hey fubelli i got 5 ladies [hopefully]!!! i have 2x240 watt fluorescent's for them to go under,thanks for the advice mate it makes sense to let them acclimatise, i'm defo gonna try that, should i put them straight into 5 litre pots from when the seeds germ or bigger pots than that to get em established??

**chazrazz** · 06-05-12, 07:15 PM

**afriendinneed** · 07-05-12, 12:35 PM

480W is good! For pots i suggest you for the first 20 days after germ put them into 5 litre pots after put them in a definitive pot ( For Autos i suggest 12-15 litre )

**TC-UP** · 08-05-12, 09:13 AM

Autos do not like to much change. Pot them into the biggest pots you can then plant them out.
I tend to use small pots, less than a litre. But I put them out after about 3 weeks under lights.

Good luck with the grow.
