@Eyes on Fire I am just starting to understand growing Autos in the tropics outside , The best time is from June to October , but in saying that it depends on the season as some years are wetter than others , plus June is our shortest day light hours but building from there on . Bugs can be a problem , grasshoppers being the main one . Humidity is always a issue , again depending on the rain --- normal year the rains stop in June but not this year --- With photos the guys plant 2 times a year , now is the time for what they call the summer grow . The first grow has just finished . This stuff
http://www.biodynamics.in/BD501.htm I am interested in to help with the sun light hours for autos , One thing I have noticed is the out door ones at this stage are smaller , but that could be just me , but I will say they seem to be a lot stronger smoke . I still have a long way to go yet with the outdoor Autos but I have plenty of room to play around . The chart shows the UV, I am in the purple . I think this helps with the strength [ THC ]
You will have noticed I like playing around as I get enough smoke of each grow to last till the next . What I am thinking for the June to October time frame is a lot more sativa in the strain and longer flowering time . One strain that has caught my eye is Flash Muay Thai Auto , once we get into early October The day time temps hit low 30 c .
