Moving outside

I have 2 plants that are a few weeks into veg and to keep my flower tent cycle going I will put one there in 2 weeks, but thinking of putting the smaller one outdoors. Mainly because I won't have room in the tent because I have a new strain that I'll flower in about 5-6 weeks.
So my question, it's not getting above 80f here, so can I transplant it with no worries?

You're going to want to harden it off rather than just plop it outside. Also, is it an autoflower or photoperiod? Depending on where you live, the days may not be long enough yet to put it outside without it going into flower. If it's a photoperiod plant it will go into flower, then it will reveg when the days get longer, and then it will have to flower again at the end of summer.

I'm in Southeast US. It's a photo. It can hang around for 3 more weeks, but then it has to go somewhere or I'll have to chop it as I'm very limited on room.
How many hrs of light will it take to keep it from flowering? I know 12/12 is the go to for indoors but I'm sure I could vary?

I think the days will be long enough for them to not flower in 2-3 weeks but I'm not positive about that. Hopefully someone will be able to confirm that for me.

I usually plant out from a 16/8 light cycle on May 11th. You might be ok may1st but I would hit it with a light at midnight for the first week
