Outdoor/Indoor grow - forcing flowering

[grizzly5409]

I have an outdoor plant at an appropriate height in the vegetative state - it gets about 15 or so hours of daylight a day. The plant is in a pot and able to be moved.

I want to put it into flowering but the light cycle will not be switching for at least another 1 1/2 months.

Is it possible to bring the plant indoors for it's dark hours - then bring it outside at an appropriate time (mid to late morning) so it gets approx 12 hours of daylight?? I would then retrieve the plant at night and put in dark room.... then put outside at same time in the morning.... and continue this pattern to achieve flowering.... IS THIS POSSIBLE???

Totally aware it will be a pain the butt and may be stressful to the plant.... but COULD it work?

I tried that last year with some Diesel clones. In my case I would put the plants into my dark garage at @4 PM and bring them back out after sunset. Here, morning sun is better than afternoon shade.

Your are so right about being is a total pain in the butt, and I averaged @ 25% less yield per plant. Important to set schedule and stick to it. If you have nothing better to do, for the next two months or so, go for it.

If you start now you will harvest a month or so before the October flood of outdoor weed. Not to mention the fun you get to have busting out a fresh tasty joint, while every outdoor grower you know is waiting for their crops to mature, and the people that did not plan ahead are smoking the bottom of the bag.
