Okay im a little late on the new topic, like a popped the seeds back on march 19th late so the girls are almost 2 months old i plan to put them outside around may 24- june 1 schedule and weather depending. Right now there in a 2x4 tent with 400w MH set to 150 (gets to hot in my room to have it full blast right now) and a 195 cfm exhaust fan with passive intake. Medium is coco amending with organic dry amendments every 3 weeks, housed in 1 gal fabric pots. Temp during lights on keeps around 26c and 57%rh, during lights off its 17c and 41%rh. Watering with pH between 6 and 7

Looking good, can you heat them a bit more on lights off? That would help your growth.
Where in Canada are you exactly?
June 2nd I’m usually able to start bring my plants out on nice days and I do that for a week or before leaving them out full time.
I have a shed and if the weather gets bad in that first month I toss them in my shed to avoid them getting to much wind or rain.
I’m in central Alberta

Yeah i could set a heater on a timer have it come on an hour or so after lights off and then have it shut off an hour or so before the light comes back on
Im in eastern ontario about 30 mins north of kingston

This is what I do also. I kinda do that with my winter indoor grow plants also (take them out in the sun when the sun is out). I feel comfortable leaving my outdoor plants outdoors full time when the night time temps consistently stay above 40*. That being said, I also work from home (normally), and when the weather gets really windy (or a pineapple express), I’ll bring them in to sit under the lights. But I won’t bring them in for just rain.
If you have the means to take them outside for a few hours each day to sit in the sun (when you can), I suggest doing that.
mmmm… blueberry!

I like to see nite temps above 10 c / 50 f.
We can still get frost up till the end of June so it’s better to be cautious.
I’d like to have them out by the first of the month tho if weather allows.

Thats what i was waiting for aswell for it not drop below 10c i looked up the weather for the past 5 years in my area and after june 1st it only drops below 10 a handful of times so figure i should be good by then im planting directly into the ground and i can’t access them everyday

Buy a backyard greenhouse, and put them in that to start off.
If you bring them outside and leave them outside after spending Thier whole life inside its a huge shock and they will stunt and maybe die
I have read 12c so I wait for 12c nights
