indoor/outdoor grow is it possible or worth my time

So I have vegged all these plants indoor and budded for 3 weeks indoor until I get the idea of why can I have them outside for 12 hrs of good sunlight then put em back inside for 12 granted I would only put them out on sunny days is this a good idea or should I just not waste my time?

There's no better light for plants than the sun, so that's a plus. On the negative side, you may bring pests into your grow room. If they were still vegging I'd be more inclined to move them around, three weeks into flower I would just leave them indoors.
 
I have a completely separate veg. Room all the plants that are in the bud room have been going outside the sun seems to be doing them great and I can keep em out 7-9 hours in direct sunlight then the rest under the 1000w dual arc and 400 w super hps I understand the pest problem but haven't had an issue yet I'm keepin my fingers crossed that this works like I think its gonna :)

Go for it,michigan.The best thing about growing your own,is that they are your plants and you can do whtever you want with them.
As lo budget says,look out for bugs.Spray them with Neem oil,try soaking some chopped garlic and/or chillie peppers overnight
in water,mix with a few drops of Dove soap to help it stick to the leaves.These can all be used together.
Prevention is better than cure,so they say.Good luck mich,expriment is the root of all knowledge.

depending on the temperatures, u may have to acclimate over several days to get the plants use to the summer sun. GL

Sun is amazing, my 2 plants love the sun, all day. I've left mine outside, blended in with the tomatoe plants, seems like they're growing 2-3 inches a night. Take advantage of the sun, if possible. Save a few bucks on the electric bill while you can. Will bring my 2 in for flower ,sometime in August, maybe earlier, the way they're growing.
 
Here are a couple pics of wIMG_20130714_095518_666.jpghat I have now. I started to get a little powdery mildew on them today when outside not cool I'll spray em down with a 1/10 ratio of milk to water controls mildew great IMG_20130714_095539_869.jpgIMG_20130714_095529_458.jpgIMG_20130714_095524_154.jpg
