So,..my ladies (or soon to be) plants are in flowering as we speak. (or as you read) Just a quick question. The weather is nice outside. my plants get their light from 8 am to 8 pm. in a closet set up. I only use 3 compact flouresents (42w) and 2 4ft flouressents with a fan on them. so is it possible to put them outside for most of the lighting cycle on nice days?? will it hurt to mix outside light and my closet set up?? My babies are exactly 7 days into their 12/12 cycle.
any help would be appreciated.
Keep tokin. (i just did)

May i mix up the two kinds of lighting or no??
8 days into flowering still no signs of sex.

your plants will love you for giving them real sunlight. make sure like mentioned above that you keep them consistant on 12 hour cycles. be careful at first and watch them closely for signs of problems, but you should not have any, the sun is not real intense like it is in the summer. with the real sun and good roots, your bud will improve. actualy, im going to give a couple of my babies some sun today. good luck.

Natural light is good, although you gotta watch the bugs outside.

I wouldnt tell you to do something I wouldnt do. Here is my prize winning sativa soaking up the sunshine. her golden buds will suck up the juice and she is thanking me by giving me some potent budsky. later on Ill put her back under the lights to keep her 12/12 cycle consistant. Cant beat the sun, it has rays a man made bulb will never duplicate.

okay sounds great. One more question and i'll leave ya guys alone. My 12/12 cycle is a little inconsistant. I keep it close those i do not have a timer i just turn them off and on approximatly the same time everyday give or take maybe at most 15 minutes. is that okay?? i would prefore not to get a timer i can just as easily turn them off or on without it. As long as it wont hurt my babys
