I have some month old plant outside, and they are doing good. The question is how long is the season here, is it possible to keep a plant growing all year? It usually dosn't get to freezing temp. until Jan. Any info would be appreciated. If your in Orlando, I'll be at Widespread Panic Oct.9,10,and 11th. Also Bob Weir with Ratdog Nov. 16th. Maybe we can smoke some at the show.
let it grow.

If you have to wait that long, then pick before the first frost. Freezing will kill your plants and knock off resin. Pick when tric's are pink, or 1/3rd total plant resin is red.

This is my first grow attempt. One plant is about 6wks the other ones are about a month. I know how to check its sex. How long does it take from start to finish? Also how much water should they be getting? It rains about once or twice a week. I'm amazed how fast it grows! It takes me a while to get on computer, because I only use it when I'm at the library for books to read.

Ok man, it does not matter how old they are. The plants will produce flowers aka Buds when the light cycle in your region begins to reduce the amount of hours of light your plants are recieving. The plants will naturally notice the change and decide at just the right time to begin flowering. If I was you I would find out when the sun comes up and goes down....when itreaches about 14 hours the plants will normally start to show sex and pre flower...although 12 hours of dark are optimal....here is a link where you can check those times according to your location...

Sorry about this being so scattered brained but there is an abundance of information available to you online...read read read...if you are asking yourself when will they bud or will they grow all year you probabilly have no clue to what you are doing and it will take many unsuiccessfull grows before you learn on your own...
