ive got a plant thats outgrowing my grow room (ive only ever done indoor). i figure she's gotta go outside. she's been flowering for 21 days now. i live on the east coast in rural Pennsylvania. and was wondering when would be the best time to put her outdoors in such a way as not to interrupt her 12/12 lifestyle? thus allowing her to continue flowering, and not have any major stress/ return to veg issues. can some one gimme an approx date so i can plan what to do. any help would as always be greatly appreciated. thx

well you could put it outside now and do the black trash bag method or you could wait until either sometime in august or september i think is when it starts im not sure.

Well the easiest way is to look at an almanac and figure the sunrise and sunset. The plants will not mind a small variation in the time difference, they may slow down a bit though through the adjustment. I haven't grown much inside, but they will respond well once outside.

where do u live at? because theres always frost danger. i would say wait untill 2-3rd week of august to be 100% safe each strain is different

i don't know how this works. i have plants that are in full flower right now. they started to show signs about 10 days ago. i am on the west coast. then i have others that are still in complete veg. so this is strain dependent. but what if they are already IN flower? good question. i don't know the answer. i recently spoke with someone who tried this 2 weeks ago when mine first started showing signs. he was already flowering them. he put them outside and they started to re-veg.

i started mine indoor they flowered for 17 days,i then put them outside and they revegged,if you can bag them for 12/12 then do it,i have one that was almost 4 weeks in flower inside and then moved out it seems to still be budding,but i will keep you posted if by sunday it is still budding i will let you know,what im finding is that indica domminant strains have a better chance to stay flowering,i would wait another week for sure though.
