I would start them inside under cfl 6500k would be great 20/4 light cycle.then place them outside after about 5 weeks when the are well established with bud starting.As far as soil.That all depend on your budget and availability to top brands for growing cannabis.You can get good results with a top name brand from you local garden store or home center.Go cheap get cheap!

I agree, start them indoors and move them outdoors when they have 4-5 sets of true leaves. Outdoors it's often hard to keep them on a regimented feed schedule due to periods of rainy weather, so I would suggest a soil mix that contains some good organic material like worm castings, composted manure or guano. That way the plants can feed off the soil instead. A mix of sphagnum peat moss, perlite and organic material, plus some dolomite lime to buffer the pH of the soil, and some mychorrizal fungi to stimulate root growth.

Follow the above recs.....Keep your babes inside as long as ya can....to reduce opportunity for pests etc.... after that, they're pretty much a crap shoot outside....good luck..

OF, with all it's soil amendments, can be too hot for auto seedlings. You'd be better off in starting them in some Light Warrior or Happy Frog, and transplanting to the OF after they get a bit bigger.

By regular top soil are you referring to a store bought soil or just outdoor soil? I would still recommend the HF or LW over the outdoor soil. If transplanting isn't done correctly it can cause what is called transplant shock and it may take the plants up to a week to recover, which will certainly stunt them to a degree. I transplant all the time and the trick is to disturb the roots as little as possible. Again, I would wait till they have 4-5 sets of true leaves. By then the root ball will be big enough that it will stay compact and you can transplant it will little disturbance to the roots.
