Indoor/Outdoor combo grow?

[theskizza]

I have grown outdoors in five gallon pots for one cycle, and had some success. On this go around, I wanted to veg them longer to get them bigger for more yield.

I have some Blue Dream and some AK plants that are 8 weeks old, still in Veg, and about 3' tall. I trim the bottom and have topped them. I want to get them as big as possible so I'm wondering if I can bring them into the house to put them under a CFL light at night to keep them on 24/7 light? Would this be a productive thing to do? Would it hurt the plant to go indoors and outdoors on a daily basis like that? I plan to stop once they are about 5' tall and flip to bloom, whereby I would just leave them outside.

I wouldn't wait too much longer before you start flowering them. It is already September and it takes 7-9 weeks of flowering before they will be ready to harvest. Bringing plants indoors and out is okay, but be careful. When a plant is outdoors, it will bring bugs and pest with it indoors.

I was planning on experimenting with vegging a couple plants this winter and spring for 5-6 months before transplanting them into the ground in the summer. It would be cool to have 6 foot plants in the ground in may. I don't know if it would be worth the extra effort put into it though.
