Outside lighting for indoor plants

[GadgetOTG]

Just a quickie here. Can I take my indoor grown ladies outside from time to time for some actual real sun, given the temp is decent out...frickin cold right now for late april. Will it help or kill them...or does it matter at all???

Yes but start out partially shaded, and dont expose them to full sun right off th e bat or you risk frying them. They arent used to UVA/B. Id break them in over a period of 7 days.

If you have a decent indoor light you'd probably be better off leaving them inside. Full sunlight is much stronger than grow lights and you'll possibly being giving them light stress. Not only that but you increase the odds that you'll bring something back inside with them, IE pests.

See, I am not convinced my lights are "good" per say. I am running two no name 1000w full spec lights that seem to be doing alright inside but I am not convinced they are actually what one would consider good lights lol. But sorry Jimi gonna have to go with 28 on this one...but only because of my lack of confidence in my lights lol.
