Early Outdoor Flowering Problem

[justicebzwieg]

Putting indica seedlings outside in April at northern latitudes often triggers flowering within days, because the plant reads the short daylight as autumn and the tiny plant tries to finish. They usually reveg once June light arrives, but the stall costs a month and the regrowth is ugly. Safe transplant dates by region, based on hours of daylight rather than the calendar, are tabulated on https://kushindicaseeds.com, which makes planning far easier. Vegging under a lamp until late May avoids the whole issue for me.
