Here in VT our season can be very short and tricky as well - aside from the hunters and air survillance. I've found this formula works for some - plant indoors June 1, when you can take advantage of the nice days yet bring em inside for chilly nights and 24 hr lite - then plant outdoors in safe location July 4th - Jah willing you'll have buds before the forst frost
Blessings to all
