    i dont have much knowledge or experience with growing other than that of my own crops...basically im growing northern lights outside, i first started them under a hps lamp in my closet on the 23rd of july, after a month i put them otuside (by this time they were about 30 cms tall), so that means that theve been outside now for 3 weeks. they around 90cms tall now and starting to bud... and harvest season for nl is late september so i kinda timed the plants good

    i did however have a rather large catipillar problem but i found the buggers and killed em violently (if u ever have this problem ull find em hidden in curled up leaves) and it hasnt done much damage, just a few holely leaves :S. there are also other bugs such as green flys that seem to sit on my plants put there not dont much harm..u know live an let live... i also found sum eggs under neath a couple of the leaves but all i had to do was flick the shit off...

    basically if ur gonna grow outside look for the harvest time for the plants, work out how tall u want ur plants (for fully grown mature plants, plant 2 months plus budding time, usually 6-8 weeks, before harvest time) and plant accordingly also keep an eye on them for bugs an stuff and they should do fine!

    hope thats helped

    Hermie=hermaphrodite.
    That's when a pot plant has both male flowers (pollen sacs) and female flowers (buds) on the same plant.
    You don't want these. You'll end up with seedy buds.

    Btw, do you know that marijuana is one of the few plants on earth that has seperate sex's?
    In fact, marijuana invented sex.
    Need I say more?
