Can I pre flower and then plant outdoor

[colaman]

I would like some help on flowering tecniques for an early outdoor harvest, can I flower indoors and move outdoor early in the season ( June 1st in my area ) to finish flowering for the last 4 to 6 weeks. I read about this somewhere but would like to know if it really works and how it will affect the yeild. It would be nice to harvest 2 months early .If anyone can let me know how long to flower before going outdoors that would be great. This is the best place to get info

to my understanding, you can move a plant outdoors at any point. most do it when plant is still small and easily managable to my understanding. there is a hardening off period to lessen stress for plant. it involves moving the plant outdoors for about an hour at a time everyday for about a week, gradually increasing amount of time outdoors everyday.

to flower early outdoors you have to limit the length of time your plant(s) receive sunlight. I've read of some putting up tarps on cables that can be pulled over plants on a schedule.

Hey thanks smokinjoe . someone told me that if you flower for 3 to 4 weeks indoor and then move them outside that they will continue to flower under prolonged light periods just wanted to know if this is true and the best way to do it

I wouldn't put alot of faith in it.

you can cover single plants with black garbage bags although you may fin d it a nuisance
