I don't see how it could be bad, assuming the clone is rooted and strong enough to handle direct light. You will want to watch out for bugs, though.

Good luck and happy growing!

I do exactly what you did all the time. I set them out as seedlings on warm days, and continue to do so through flower. In addition to bugs, be careful you don't sun scald them if they have been in 100% artificial light. Set them in light shade for a day, and give them increasing amount of full sun for a few days till they get accustomed to the UV light.

I think it's really beneficial, nothing like real solar rays to make them happy. FWIW I put a light meter at canopy height under my 600W with some additional CFLs and it read 2200 candlepower. Outdoors with overcast it I get 4600 CP, and when it's clear I get a reading of 7300 CP. So they are getting a lot more light in full spectrum, gotta be good for growth.
