Is it possible?: indoor veg / outdoor flower?

Hi guys,

Newbie question so sorry in advance if its totally stupid.

Question...

Is it possible to do a 10 week full veg indoor under LEDs in a typical tent situation, then when the are of good size move them to outdoor (out of season)(with shorter days/colder) for the plant to fruit and bud?

Will the plant die or freak out going from 26C under LED to natural cycles dropping below 10c? Is it possible?

If this works then I can get the plant size under lights inside to veg up big, then move them outside to fruit.

Cheers,

Yes it is definitely possible and can produce great results. However, I would say that its best to move them outdoors in the day and bring them back in at night during vegetative growth so to familiarize the plant to sunlight before just planting it outside.

Thanks for your reply, to be honest as ideal as that would be. I think its a one time move in my situation.

Its started winter now in NZ so the temp drop will be quite dramatic and sudden when it happens.

There's a lot of members veg inside then put them outside to flower.

This is standard practice although you're missing an important step, Hardening. If you grow big ass plants inside and just take them outside they might get smoked by the wind and other elements. Where I live its mega windy so when I was doing outdoor I had to let the plants sit outside in their pots for a few hours a day to "harden up". I made the mistake of vegging plants with just standard oscillating fans on them, moved outside and one of the plants literally snapped at the stalk from wind and died.

Vegging outside is more ideal in my opinion but depending where you live you'll need to veg them inside first for optimal yield and to get big ass plants.
