indoor + part time outdoor sunlights.

Hi all,

I've one question and cant figure out.

I have plants that are in the 3-4 week veg period indoor grow. My backyard is quite suitable and receives at least 6-7 hours of direct sunlight every day. I want to leave my 3-4 week old plants in backyard for 6 hours a day in the sunlight. When the sun goes down, I will take it inside the house and continue indoor grow lights

So,here is the simple math. 12 hours a HID light + 6 hours direct sunlight.

What kind of advantages does it have, can i double my harvest?
What should i pay attention to? Is there anything that could be harmful?

thanks a lot for your help

You will want to harden the plants off before putting them in direct sunlight. Put them in a shaded area at first and gradually increase the amount of direct sunlight they get each day.

I started 1 week ago. I keep it in the sun for 15 minutes and in shade 1 hour a day. I increase every 15 minutes every day but I am going to put them in sunlight next week. Sounds are great? can I double my harvest, it is not so much important but maybe more tasty.. right?
