Purple Kush Outdoors in Ontario

The night temperatures are now dropping into the single digits. We have seen a low of 6C so far. I'm building a large frost shelter to extend the grow if needed, and also, next year I will try to get my plants into the dirt a couple of weeks sooner. I have learned a lot this summer, given that this was my first outdoor grow.. There are a number of things I will do differently next year. For example, I'll put them in the garden directly instead of leaving them in pots. I feel like the roots were constrained too much during the early stages of growth. I will space my plants out differently too. I had NO idea they would grow so big. I thought that only expert growers with a 'magic touch' would pull that off. Also, now that we have the new irrigation system (root soakers) I will be able to make sure they are watered properly from the very beginning. We didn't get that in place until several weeks into the grow. I will chose varieties with the shortest flowering periods possible so I don't have to sweat bullets about frost as the grow season comes to an end!
