Obsessed1 Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 Hey this is my first time ever growing marijuana. I ordered 10 seeds of white widow. Now I was thinking if I could plant the seeds outdoor? I was going to put them into a pot and place them outdoors. That way I can move it and keeps the rodents away. Do I really need one of those special lights for my plants? Or could I just place the weed outside for sunshine and bring indoors during the night time? Sorry im new at this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind Your Head Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 I dont know a much about out-door growing but I would think that Southern CA would be ideal and WW will do fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a fish store would have them? How much would that cost a month for electricity? Is that better than planting outdoors? Or do you just give it that light for a couple weeks then move it outdoors? Or completely indoors? Im confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
