Hope this isn't a dumb Question but I am on my first grow and was wanders about this. Can you put your babies outside when it is beautiful sunshine, brightm clear and hot? Then bring them in again for dark time. I know this would mean leaving them inside if the whether was bad.

It is that real sunshine is the best light I could give Seline and Amelia but if swapping between real and artificial is bad I will leave in my grow room all the time.

It is 78 here with beautiful blues skies and my girls are missing it all :(

Here is Seline at 7 days (Jack Herer)

Here is Amelia at 8 days old (Snow White closely related to White Widow)

if you can bring them out in the day, why wouldn't you just leave them outside 24/7? Taking them in and out is just going to stress them, posssibly causing them to hermie...

Hey Doobster. Good to see you again.

Agree with the below and would add that taking plants in and out risks introducing pests to your grow room.

Good to see you again as well, bigs...

Ditto on the pests... He'll have fungus gnats and spider mites in his grow room in no time doing the old in and out method, for sure.

Thanks everyone.
I haven't been taking them in and out was just wondering if it was a good thing to do, that's why I asked you guys.
Your advice is great I will leave them in room, never thought about the bug thing durrrrrrrrr me.

Thanks again guys.

By the way do any of you name your girls? My partner thinks I'm going crazy but I am kinda addicted to caring for them.

Well I certainly label them. Many people name them. I don't think giving them names is nearly as important as talking to them. They also like a bit of music. Talk radio is a definite no no, especially if it's of the right wing nut variety. That will stunt their growth such that they end up looking moronic.
