Indoor to outdoor advice needed!

[Haggiz]

Aight, I got my Dutch Passion growing inside at the moment and plan to let it grow to about 6-7 nodes before moving it outside. Right, what I need to know is, should I stick the plant on 12-12 a week before I put it outside or what? This is me pretty clueless on this one, having never grown Dutch Passion or outside. Cheers

keep it under the number of hours of light that outside you have right now. So there isnt a change in photoperiod. or put it beside a window

I would let it continue on what you have been doing and just put it outside and let it do its thing. If you put it on 12/12 now it well start to flower and when you put it outside it is going to switch back to veg. Thats going to lose you about a weeks worth of growth.

So you just wait until the plant naturally starts flowering? How long will that take, weeks-wise?

I myself,would want to know if they were a lady or not! So,you set yourself back a week or so.Not a problem! Alot of growers plant a late crop,as to keep them lower in height.Yes, it will affect the yeild,but if put outdoors in early to mid July,potency will not be at risk! You will have enuff time in the photoperiod to have them flower and finish! Late planting offers alot of rewards! 1) It can add a bit of security to your grow! By staying low.Your grow is not at risk by having their heads way up in the air,to be found by a hunter,or whatever!
2)You can plant at different times,and get more than 1 crop.Without, all you have out there in the woods finishing at the same time!LOT'S of work when ya got to get it all at once! not to mention all the manicuring you would have to do!So a late start not so bad!
