So I live in Alaska and I am planning to start one aghan kush ryder. She is currently in the paper towel with her white head barely popping out. anyways, Since she is an autoflower she will ned all the light she can get for the veg period. So, would it be a good idea to keep her outside during the day when she will get sun/ partial sun and then bring her inside at night and put her under no more than 80 watts of cfl? then in the morning bring her back out? she would only be under lights for a max of 12 hours a day. More likely around 8. Thanks guys!

you think that will stress her out coming from a 3000 lumen environment to a 10,000 lumen environment everyday?

No. It's called hardening off. Once the plant is hardened off it will be fine through a mild storm. Saying lumen change is shockin is like sayin an outdoor plant would go in to shock after it was really sunny one day, cloudy the next, then sunny again. That's not the case. It will be fine.

You might cause a little stress considering its an auto. Make sure you have plenty of ventilation inside and that you manage the temps with those lights because heat stress is a bitch.

My autos are doing fine outside but I think they'd bud quicker under more light. I'd shoot for 23 hrs. Also, take up welding and expose them to the flash, I've heard good things about it. You could add a strobe light too.
