If your growing outdoors and want to bring your beautiful bud plant indoors... then thats okay, but if you're thinking of taking your pampered bud plant that has been exposed to nothing but accomadating conditions and put it outside in to a uncontrolled environment where the conditions are a little harsher... my vote is keep it indoors man, haha. You'll save yourself a headache. I am not a soil grower (just started a soil mother grow about a month ago), but I have done quite a bit of research... and if I'm wrong anyone may go ahead and correct me :]
Good luck bro
Thanks,
I just want to make sure its ok for just a few hours during the day so my soil can dry out some. My problem is that I started outdoors in 10 Gal+ Pots and after a month when they were 2 feet tall I moved them into my little growroom and started 12/12 .My Pots are so big that I need to set them outside to dryout some every once in awhile.
after only fluorescent lamps, the sun will likely be too much for your plants to handle, 'may' kill them rather quickly :( ... also, you will probably be bringing insects back indoors, with the plants ... best not to switch in & out plants :smokin:
water less
do you have good exhaust in your grow room? what about air ciruculation?
damn, 10 gallon is a big ass pot!

:stoned: HaHa, Yea it was suppose to be an outdoor grow with the big pots. But I decided to try a few out in my new room.Quote:

It has 4" Exaust fan and a 4" Fan blowing Inside but it does not make the plants move. I am going to get a 6" fan for more circulation and maby a 6" Exaust fan since my temps seem to stay around 81-85. Also have a mini dehumidifier and RH is around 57%
I would suggest not doing it. The soil will dry up due to the plants roots absorbing the water. Do not let the heap get completely dry b4 watering. what i usually do is put my fingers about 2 inches in the soil and see if its moist. if its moist ur fine, if not add some water. indoor plants get watered about twice a week.Quote:
