Needing some advice I have 2 beautiful girls I have been growing them outside since first day. One of them is 40inches and other almost 50 inches so want to know when I should bring them in and start 12 to 12 cycle. These are my 1st and need some good advice on what to do next anything will help thanks ;)

well if i were you i would just let them finish outside youd get more bud. but if you really want or need to move them inside it really depends on what your moving them under and how big do you want them to get because theyll get about 1/3 bigger maybe a little more depending on the strain.

How much longer would it be if I left them outside you think and if I did move inside what would I need and what u think the bud loss would be if you have an idea. Would trying to move one inside and leaving one out be an OK Idea

Yeah you could do one and one , but you also take the chance of bringing in unwanted pests from outside.
If you do one you could use a 400w or 600 being they are so big and will get much bigger in the first few wks of flower.
No one can tell you how much you would get or lose. Inside lighting can not compare to a summer sun or any sun so you will lose some.
If you left them outside they should finish in oct. Thats also will depend on where you are..
Good Luck.

Thank you so if I was to move indoors should I put in a dark closet? And just a regular 400 or 600 light bulb? Then do I just keep lights on for 12 an off for 12? No special insulation or anything? Sorry for being a pest and appriciate the advice

um i would highly recommend keeping them outside it will probably finish by October and also he means hps/metal hallide bulb which you would need a reflector, ballast, and bulb for which is kinda pricey but worth it. and yes you would need to make sure your plants get no light whatsoever during the night so you would need something like panda film or Mylar. also you would need to buy a timer because its hard to turn the light on and off by hand the you would need some sort of fan or ventilation to keep it cool in the closet and after all this you'll still get less then if you just leave them outside. but are you doing a guerrilla grow because if so i would bring one in personally i have had every plant i have put out side stolen besides in my own yard. but dont let that scare you guerrila grows are fine i just got unlucky. but dont get me wrong indoors is fine but if you dont have the right equiptment or the money to get some of these things your better off leaving them outside.

if you have to move them in side they are very tall and unless you have 1 thousand hps per plant. those plants may get nother 3 feet tall got that much height ? if you have no choice I would top them. and then have 4 plants to bring in . or yes be patient leave out side and they may grow 7 or 10 feet tall !!!! and give you 1 to 4 pounds each . inside if you donot top iw would say with every thing the very best set up best lights co2 proper temp, that tall 10 ounces each

first you say that you want to know when to bring them inside to flower or bud. the question is where do you have them now??? the best light in the world is where you have them at now.. like everyone has stated before if you bring them in now you will loose out on your yield and it won't get no where near the love that the outside will give you..leave them where they are..
