I wanted to ask if you could give me a few tips for outdoor growing on how to best start next year? Because I grew indoors this year and would like to give outdoor growing a try in the new year. I would be grateful for any tips and tricks. I would start with an autoflower Gorilla Cookies. Warm regards from South Tyrol.
Auto flowers aren’t the best for outdoors in my experience
Plant as soon as the daylight cycle is past 14hr each day. I personally prefer to keep them under a rain proof canopy that allows sunlight to pass through. I used greenhouse plastic and built a frame with 2x4s. This will help prevent mold and powdery mildue from rain exposure. Make sure the placement gets full sun preferably all day. If you start them indoors make sure to harden them off before finally leaving then out 24/7. Grow in a pot if using synthetic nutrients and in ground if doing organic. You can do organic in a pot too if you prefer. I say this as the synthetic nutrients aren’t the best for soil life, so I prefer them contained. If you have any specific questions, I’d be happy to answer them. I think I covered the basics at least.
