Transplanting from Indoor to outdoor after I've already been flowering for a month

:wall:Just to give the jist of the senerio, I have a pretty large plant standing about 4-5 tall bushy as hell (looks as though the previous owner topped many times). The plant was flowering for what looks like a good month or so but the two people in charge of the medical operation had some sort of dispute and one stripped all the plants besides this large pre-mature plant and left permanetly. I am the owner of the home and have full rights to the plant as I am also a legal medical patient allowed to grow my own 12 but I want to put the house back up for rent so this plant really cannot stay. When the growers stripped the operation they took all the lights, fans, and everything else usefull and left a t9 or t12 floresent bulb on the plant running for 24 hours and it's been going for a couple days now. I know this light if entirly inefficent and wrong but i've left it on as some sort of light source while i figure out what I'm going to do. My main question is if I brought this plant outdoor to grow would this potentially kill the plant from stress or should it be okay? It would have to go back into vegging for a month before outdoor flowering season comes back around and i have no idea what this would do to the plant. Advice please? :wall:

this plant could be dead by the time anyone responds ;p

Your in luck buddy, I have done a similar experiment in the past years because I wanted to know if I could take indoor plants that have been flowering for the first 4 weeks and put them out doors after the two month of outdoor flowering has past. I figure around the NorthWest one week indoors is about equal to two weeks outdoors for productivity. So the indoor plants would be near a similar stage as the outdoor plants. The main reason I did this was because mold came early outdoor one year and so I knew my early flowering plants would likely be more mold resistant than my outdoor ones that already had some fat buds.

The results: I finished the indoors outdoor and the outdoor indoor. The results... Both had really frosty dense buds. Since the process is slower outdoors it just got to flower for a longer period and have more time to build quality, I guess. The outdoor that came indoor was real good as well. It finished another month with no mold when everyones outdoors was getting molded by Oct. 1st. Also the increase in light intensity just made it finish better. But the yield suffered a bit. Atleast, no mold. I may have slid the indoor outdoor back indoor after October for 2 more weeks but i finished the outdoor indoors.

If I was you I probably wouldnt transplant it into new soil since its already flowering but just set it out there in its current container of soil if possible.
 
So if I set it outdoor (after it's already been flowering indoor for about a month) where it's going to have to go back into vegging for a month before it's ready to start flowering again, that's okay? lol
