how much direct sunlight does a indica plant need to grow? im in the uk and the weather over the last few days has turned pretty shitty bieng completly overcast and bits of rain falling. when i say overcast i mean sky completly covered in cloud all direct sunlight filtered out. can a plant still grow in these conditions, i wouldve thought they would be able to but more slowly as light is still present for photosynthesis but nowhere near as intense.
ideas?

the seedling would stay a very faint white and die if their was no light at all from what you're describing

all you can do is work with what ya got. they don't need direct sunlight but the more they get the better...the clouds will clear out soon enough and they'll start growing again. but it's too late to be starting seeds outdoors and still expect to harvest enough to make it worthwhile.
