Growing Outdoors

All seeds were germinated, then placed in small pots to grow. They are growing outdoors with soil, water, & sunlight. Three weeks in & I can already smell them when watering.... Very skunky . Pictures coming soon, Septic worker is next door, don't want to attract unwanted attention.
My questions are...
Is it safe to transplant them in the ground now? The plants are about 7 inches tall & very healthy. I was going to just going to wait to transplant once the plants all reached 1 foot, but then I started pinching the tops so...?
I also read about a nutrient mix called Brix Plus? Anyone have any experience with it & how did it go compared to others...? www.guerillagardener.info is the website, I think(did not work for me)
My last outdoor attempt a plant grew to about 4 inches then the leaves turned yellow & it died, was this an example of over fertilization? NPK value of 20-20-20 in water/nutrient mix.
Lastly... How do I know exactly how much water to give the plant? It's doing well but, how do you know if you are suppose to add more or less?
Is it to late into the year to start a few more plants? Im already germinating them just incase its not.
Any answers or questions are appreciated. Thanks!

If I know at all what I'm talking about, and I'm not sure I do. I would say that yellow leaves are a sign that there's a problem with the pH of the soil, try adding some hydrated lime to reduice acidity.

Thanks guys! I went to the feed store yesterday & bought potting soil, sphagnum moss peat, perlite, vermiculite, etc.. I was reading that peat is naturally quite acidic (pH 3.5-4.5) so lime must be added to raise the pH.
Would I just squeeze fresh lime juice into my water, then water my plants?
P.S. Going to take pictures now..

yes transplant them. Stop pinching the tops it's to late in the year the plants are gonna be budding soon.

Could be PH, to much water, over feeding, many things it depens many things. Did the leaves yellow from the bottom up? Have any rust spots and so on.

When the top of the soil gets dry water. Water till a little just starts to come out the drainage holes.

If they are going outside the seeds have been wasted to late in the year to start em

I disagree with Magash...you can grow a few from seed since you are in Florida. Expect 1/4-1/2oz at the most off each one.

I'll take that bet . Start the seeds now they are gonna need 4 weeks to sexually mature before they start to bud. That will put harvest in the rainy season (which pretty much starts in late Sept) which is gonna lead to mold problems or some pretty nasty bud. let alone what kind of seeds he's planting and if they have any sativa in em.

1/4 or 1/2 isn't to bad, all the seeds have come from the best strains I have smoked(a nice variety), also have more seeds so I'm not to worried about it. I just would like some to get my through winter & a little money to buy some nice lights. Also if I were to get 1/2oz from 8 plants, plus harvest from the 5 I alreay have going, it'll be enough.

I will post more pics later. Sexing, flowering, problems, and finnaly harvest.
I have had the opportunity to smoke some White Rhino but the price for $100+ a quarter sucks, but worth it if I have the extra money. I can barely finish a bowl before I become immobile or just to stoned to pick it back up. Also some yellow hash from India(long story)..
Anywho I was just wondering how potent can bud get? I've smoked plenty Gainesville Green, Tampa Nugz, & Ybor City Dro(Stoned for about 5-6 hours from 2 bong rips!)
Anywho is there a way to identify potentcy by THC levels or something? Like can I get even more potent stuff, I know hash is very powerfull but what about the green stuff? 
P.S. Went shroom hunting the other day, came out empty handed

You know how to go about changing the pH levels?
Also, In my watering buckets I add some hydrogen peroxide to it(pour for about 1-2 seconds/they hold 2 QTs)& water my plants, when I wake up in the morning they always look amazing & smell very strong. I'll take pictures in the morning when the suns rising & the dew is on the leaves. 
Sidenote... Anthrax, Z said he saw some caps in cow fields by my house...

No I can't get ahold of him to ride out there with me. Tommarow maybe, after he gets off work.
Edit: "is it too late to grow even i just made hash with it?" What do you mean by that?

Update..
I found a worm chewing on one of my plants this morning, it was also curled up into a ball & fell over onto another leaf in its new found high.
Edit: The 2 I left in the pot grew about an half inch overnight it seems.
