Western new york here, i have a big fat mama that is almost two feet tall and i'm going to be putting her outside in 1-2 weeks. I'd think being in Cali you could do it sooner than me because surely you don't have to deal with frost which we are still getting here. That's why for me it might be june 1st unfortunately. I haven't done shit with adjusting the light cycle down though she been on 18/6 the whole time.
Im along the Nor Cal parallel somewhere. I put the little ones out on May 24th annually. But its mostly tradition. They should be good to go now though. The days are getting long.
My plants are strong enough. The long range weather here is looking NICE! But I'll give it another week-ish.
I'm at 24/0 but I did it the same last 3 years and they went happily into veg.
But it was later last year, I transplanted @july. Similar size plants although. This time I'm giving these an extra two months outside in the sunshine. Oh man, its going to get crazy in the garden (I hope), they like growing huge in the spot I have in mind
If mine go into flower, I'll report back. I hope not. If they veg, you wont hear from me again
I'll give them one more week in the cabinet. The May 24 long is usually my staple in time. The days will be even longer in a week.
From 24 hr light put out may 14th this year, last year 17th with no problems. No preflower. Just veg growth. Dont forget to harden off plants before putting in full sun. Am same lattitude as Norther Cali. North of NY
Just repotted in full sun, is cloudy so figured why not? Smallest of outdoor pots so can bring in, 15g, shes 10 inches tall 18 wide. Cant wait to see what she does. Should be over 15hrs of light by may 24, no matter where are. Might be wrong.

A mantis egg I zip tied to one of the plants hatched, now I have a whole bunch of little warriors to protect my plants. Also, the girls are doing great outside with a little bit of supplemented light. Tallest plant as of now is my granimals around 68 inches(from ground)
