outdoor flowering light cycle?

hi, i am groing my auto sour diesel for the first time and growing outdoor, i know that plant needs 12/12 light cycle to grow buds but i was wondering if is it the same for outdoors, because i get 13 hours of sunlight/light (8 hour direct) where i live and then even the nights are bright because of moon, so how does it work when it comes to flowering the plant outdoors? any suggestions?

thanks

so i dont have to worry about putting them in dark place at nights? or anything like that?
There are 2 types of plants ... autos and photoperiod
Photoperiod needs a certain amount of darkness to flower
Autos are called "auto" because they automatically flower no matter how much light or dark they get.

However autos generally do better indoors because they do best with more light (18-22 hours)

So the more light they get the better the yield.
 
because of strict lockdown in where i live i am not able to buy any lights here to grow even amazon dont have those, the only lights i have is 23 watt cfl which i am pretty sure is not enough. but this is how i am growing my plant i put my plant outdoor in the morning around 10 am till 7 pm and then i put it under thos 23 watt lights indoor and i put my plant under darkness for 6 hours basically this is how i am doing currently i dont know if i am doing it right by doing this way

With that weak of light...there is really no reason for the 6 hours of darkness.
