When To Put My Plants Out

[Augestwest]

So has anyone put there plants outside yet? I live in the outskirts of portland and have been checking the light to night ratio and I am at 13:30 hours of light. Was thinking about waiting until it's 14:30 -15hrs of light. Can anyone shed some light for me

Put a few outside a couple months ago. Ready for harvest in the Mojave desert.:D

My plants get 10-11 hours of Sun and then supplemental CFL's from Sundown (8pm) to like 2 am......the nights get too cold around 37* latitude up near 7k feet still so I bring 'em in...

If they have been under 24 hrs light my guess is if put outside that would trigger flowering.

Im northern California and I try to match the current sunset and sunrise... my lights stay at 15 / 9 cycle inside.
Where Im at.... that will be about may 10th according to the sunrise/sunset tables. we will have 15 hours sunlight then..
Of course being in a green house would be of course the best solution to preflowering...

 

[Fuzzdog]

Yeah for sure you if your running like 20-24 hours of lite, you will preflower for sure..
no matter what the actual outdoor light is...

There on 17/7 right now about to turn them down to 16/8

 

[Augestwest]

Wait a week or 2 and go to 15/9 or should I just go straight to 15/9? I usually take clones and put them out June 9 but this year I'm trying to grow some monsters since I have a legit low key area to go big. I have hoop houses but I wasn't planing on covering them until harvest. Thanks for all the I put so far guys

 

[str8smokn]

Put them under the hoop house and you can leave them out all day,night.

Little update from the farm. I got my hardware cloth on the bottom of the beds and picked up my soil. Things are coming together smoothly. Only a couple more weeks and the girls will be goin into the beds. The girls are looking really nice and getting big(about 3ft) right now. Let me know what you guys think

Looking good
I'm just finishing some White Russian indoors right now and the buds are freaking rocks make sure you hit those with some good air flow.

 

[Augestwest]

For sure I'm gonna throw my 8in and 6in inline fans out there and some oscillating fans in there when needed
