OUTDOOR GROW - HELP ME PLEASE

[iduncan]

I have a question for you herb growers out there.
I am living in the tropics very close the to the equator and would like some advise on the seasonal changes being so close to the equator. The climate change where I reside is very minor. I would like some advice on when is the best time to plant your outdoor crop for maximum yield.


To give you a better idea of where I grow. I am in this region on the globe.

18o15’ N and longitude of 77o30’ W.


Please see this link for my latest grow on mycotopia.

well if your in the tropics you can plant as long as there is no freezing nights and the light scale is on i think its 14-15 hours light....you can vegg them in that all year till your climate does shift to 13-12 hours light.

lets say you have 15 hours of light for 9 months a year and your temps stay around 75+ you could vegg them for 9 MONTHS!!!...they will be monsters by the time you harvest.

im not sure but if you get freezes there plant after the last freeze.

take care

it's pretty cllose to 12/12 all year at the Equator
so you'll want a nice sativa if you want big plants.
indicas will likely begin flowering shorrtly after
ending the seedling phase
thus remaining small.
mixed strains will fall between those extremes.
