1st time grower

[Atl404]

Hey new to forum bn a smoker for yrs decided to give this a shot.
I've bn doing research etc and decided to try out auto outdoor grow in 5 gallon buckets.
After I germinate I plan on putting str8 into bucket but I want to put them outside from Day 1 would that be a bad thing. I've heard they will be fine they need the sunlight. I always hear about hardening your plant to go outside.
if they start outside no need for the hardening process that's all they would know..
Any advice is appreciated and glad to be here

Welcome Atl404 Figure seeds hit the dirt and get sun from day one. You can't go wrong with sunshine. Ain't no LED like it.

Thnx for reply new to it all
I ordered some purp and blueberry waiting for them to arrive figured I go with cheaper prices for first grow
How many should I put out for the 1st test I was thinking 3
And if everything go good maybe throw a couple more out 3 weeks later there all autos

Personally, with auto's, four pots in the end will start with six pots. Get rid of the two that are performing less than the others. If you can, keep them, but don't plan on them in your harvest.

Sounds like a plan I will try that route
as far as soil Im thinking black and gold or FFHF seems black and gold is cheaper
