I also plan to veg indoors, and then put them out in the Spring (late March). My goal is to flower them outdoors. Go from 18/6 indoors to outdoor sun. Will this work? I fear that even though I am cutting back in the light cycle, the days are now getting longer in the Northern Hemisphere. I don't want them to re-veg.
Very recently, I did some transplanting, and I did it outside because the of the mess. While I was out there, I gave my babies some real sunshine (maybe 10-20 minutes). The result? Shit!
Some of them burned! I didn't think it was possible for 2 week old seedlings to burn in outdoor sun (45*F) after being under a 600 HID MH.
So yeah, I will be subscribing to this thead!!
