Been thinking a bit about the title I picked for this thread. Now has come, the now that I had in mind for the title. It happened today, it took me somewhat by surprise but there are several posts that may have hinted at what I'd do.
I shut down the indoor flower room. It's off, except for the small clones and if they root they'll be given away. I was thinking about the bugs, how many, the little nests and webs I saw as I inspected... The temp climbed in the room to 89F today with not much I could change. All my cooling running at max, too hot in my setup, too hot today. And then I scouted around outside. I saw a few trees in the way of the sun in what I think is an ok spot. I cut them down. Not my best tree work, but they fell. I dug out a level area, pounded in a 5'-6' rough box shape with some long metal poles. Chicken wire zip tied up 2 rows for the deer. Dug down a bit so they could sit low in the area. I moved them outside this afternoon. On day 5 of flower.
I saw it as an inevitable move, and wanted to do it before flower set in too hard and the revert to whatever schedule outside is on would be minimized. The bugs were taking over, and the heat is only going to get worse. I figured outside has pretadors that will at least help. I have no idea what will happen with them outside, and I'll be winging it from here. I didn't see me doing this, spur of the moment decision with zero regrets. I'm not writing these two off, but I've drastically scaled down my expectations for them. If they do well, cool.
