Yea, but they have to be fully mature plants that would likely already be well into flowering in nature by that age, if not long rotted to fuel the next generation. Most cannabis plants grown naturally will be on into flowering by the time the days have hits just under 14 hours.I had this happen several years ago with a Chemdog x Brutis OG cross and I've been using this to flower overwinter moms for the past couple years, mostly indicas in San Diego North County 32nd parallel.
Works like a charm. Ya know I haven't tried it with my true sativa hemp plants but seriously 15 hrs to 13 will prompt most plants.
Okay, so my plan of gradually aclimating them to outdoor times by reducing the light in the grow room by an hour every 4 days will fail. Plants will assume Fall is coming and start flowering again.Yea, but they have to be fully mature plants that would likely already be well into flowering in nature by that age, if not long rotted to fuel the next generation.

Its not the hour count that triggers this species to flower, it's the act of the daylight hours diminishing, them not being the same as they were yesterday or the day before. It's kind of hard to explain what i mean by that and how the two things are actually different, so ill give an example.
are they still before preflowers? if so, id just put them outside and deal with a little bit of light/transpiration stress for a short time as they acclimatize. Or jsut throw them straight to whatever the current daylight schedule is where you are now and keep them on it adjusting your timer to more hours as necessary to keep more or less in line with outside.Okay, so my plan of gradually aclimating them to outdoor times by reducing the light in the grow room by an hour every 4 days will fail.

So, what do I do?
Thanks! Lots to process.are they still before preflowers? if so, id just put them outside and deal with a little bit of light/transpiration stress for a short time as they acclimatize.

As long as daylight hours are getting longer, and they havent preflowered yet, they likely wont go into flower until you expect them to. You will see longer fan leaves and more distance between nodes reguardless of they they are trying to flower or not, btw. The foliage does grow differently in natural light then it does under LED
Your in michigan so your daylight hours are getting longer more rapidly then mine are, youre probably fine just putting them outside. Theyll bounce back from the transitional stress pretty quick.
If they have preflowered and gotta go outside no other choice, let em grow a little funny while they figure things out is my opinion. And if theyre mature pure indicas or mature clones or something and just want to flower regardless, harvest a little early weirdo bud is what i would do personally.
yea, lots of variables to consider, and no one set-in-stone answer unfortunately. And as with everything in life, there will be exceptions to every "rule"Thanks! Lots to process.
Bro idk if anyone else has mentioned it but be careful, I cannot say for sure just from that picture but there's a good chance that is a Brown Recluse Spider..Which is why I started so many, so early. Supposedly at 2 months I can identify the boys/girls. Well, it's been 1 month and I'm getting nervous about leaving them in the 4" pots. I may have to transplant into gallon containers before they show.
Oldchucky is right, gonna get crowded in there.
Moved a tray and a friendly house spider appeared. Not relocating her/him, saw a gnat yesterday.

I do keep my distance, but I'm pretty sure it's either a wolf or funnel weaver spider. We have lots of the funnel weaver spiders.Bro idk if anyone else has mentioned it but be careful, I cannot say for sure just from that picture but there's a good chance that is a Brown Recluse Spider..
Thanks for that. No matter what I do to these plants they keep bouncing back.Shouldn’t have any pollinating as long as you keep culling the males as they show up. Looks like you are a little over 14 hours between sun up and sunset! Those are some good looking plants! Well done!
I do it looking for slugs and snails to killI like going out at night with a headlamp and looking around on the ground and in the weeds! Dozens of little green jewels shining back at you. Little spider eyes!
