Starting photos indoors for June transplant
Want to start photos on a 14/10 schedule in April to match the lights around June 1st. Can I grow my babies on a 14/10 indoor schedule or could that possibly induce early flowering? I would rather not slowly adjust down from 18 to 14 before Xplant as suggested otherwise

Light stress during the night time
Question to outdoor growers. The auto flowering plant is growing in the garden, and sometimes there is light on during night time, can it cause light stress? It's usual light bulb, 40w, in some distance

Outdoor growers: fim/top?
I want to make sure to clarify that this question is only for outdoor growers with a photoperiod limited solely by the nature of the changing seasons. Should I even bother with fim/topping? Is the juice worth the squeeze? Let me know your thoughts, or even better, results

Heating outdoor greenhouse potential issues?
I've added a heater to my outdoor greenhouse as it's getting extremely cold at night now and they're not far enough along to harvest. Could you imagine any problems occurring with this other than the obvious condensation on the walls and roof of the greenhouse?

Can I plant an auto seed directly into a raised bed?
If you only had two options with a sativa autoflower seed you germinated: 1. Grow it indoors in a cup or other small container for a week or two, then plant it directly in a raised bed outdoors? OR 2. Plant the germinated seed directly in the ground outside and keep it safe?

10 days of rain
Just wondering, I had been using neem oil, and it looks like it’s going to rain for the next ten days almost... does neem oil last long in wet conditions if applied while my plants dry? Should I worry about botrytis/fungi during this time?

Mimosa Evo
Hi, has anyone grown Mimosa Evo, by Barney's Farm outdoors? If so, how did she do? I grow in pretty high mountains in Northern Cali so I need a hardy plant. And when did yours finish in the fall? Where did you grow her? Thank you!

Should I plant my autoflower out in full ground at end of week 5?
My autoflower just started week 5 and she's looking really healthy. I was wondering if it would be beneficial to plant it out into full ground by the end of this week. Weather is supposed to be 20+ °C by then. Would the benefits of full ground outweigh the cost of "repotting" ?

Confused with light schedules for outdoor growing
Hi fellow growers, I'm really confused with light schedules for outdoor growing. Everywhere I see 18/6 for veg and 12/12 for flowering. However at my place I get ~13hours of daylight (not always sunlight) Would my plants get into flowering if daylight is reduced to ~11 hours?

Noob grower - plant need extra support?
I've got a plant 9 weeks into veg that sags noticeably when the leaves are wet. Is this unusual or will the branches thicken enough to be able to support rain soaked clusters of sticky-icky happiness? Is there anything I can do to encourage thicker branches?

Mold ??
Hi, This is my roommates plant. I think it’s starting to get some type of mold on it. He sprayed it down with baking soda and water I guess, not sure how effective that is. What do you guys think it is? And what should he do? My plant will be going out there and I am worried.
