Can I start photoperiod clones outside in the fall?

[OBSD]

How would an outdoor photoperiod plant do if I start a clone outside in August or September? Will it start to flower immediately? I'm in San Diego so the temperature is not an issue but the light will be getting less from the start.
I only have an outdoor space to grow so indoor isn't an option and being able to grow a couple plants a year would be cool.
Thanks!

Clones from mature mothers should start flowering as soon as the photoperiod tickles their fancy.
You'll need to start with bigger plants to get a decent yield.
I usually get a couple zips of dry flower from 2-gallon grow bags.

Good luck

Awesome, thanks! So it sounds like it's still worth it to grow in the fall.

Yes, you can also extend the day length with porch lights or solar spotlights if you want to keep them vegging longer. Just remove the extra light to begin flowering.

OP - there are a lot of year round greenhouse grow ops in your area, so not only is it possible but it can crush. The one thing you'll need to do is supplement light hours until you want to go into flower. You can do this without powerful professional lighting.

LED 200w replacement bulbs from the hardware store will do it. You can position a clamp light above each plant if just doing a few. Many growers use the stringer extension cords with fixtures every 2 feet or so. Just make sure to use fairly big bulbs. If using a stringer, make sure you get a heavy guage that can handle the amperage. Using low output bulbs could just trigger herms and not really hold them in veg. They usually sell those stringers with half watt LEDs for like party/wedding lighting, these are way too weak. But nice for the porch.
