Oh...duh, lol.I bet it will be ok, then.They grow in Mexico quite well, gets pretty hot there.
I just thought the stress from indoor climate control, lots of water, little fresh air, little light and goin to Hot, Humid, Less Water, lots of light, and lots of fresh air might stress it into growing balls. Jorge Cervantes said plants can be stressed into bein a hermi. It makes sense I guess too; natural evolution would warrant this "survival of species mechanism."

Well, anytime you transfer a plant from indoor to outdoor, you shouldn't do it all at once.It's called "hardening off" the plant.You gradually expose it for longer periods to the outdoors,to allow the plant to grow accustomed to the change.The only way you'll know if it goes hermie is when it starts to flower, which will be quite a while away if it's outdoors.:peace:

I agree totally about the "survival mechanism", but I think nailing down specifically the cause of the stress is abit more difficult. One would think that ANY indoor grow moved outside and changing from an anemic bulb light to the all powerful sun would cause stress, and yet ppl do it all the time with no problems.

Then again, whose to say that they wouldn't hermie if left where they were? There's no way to know without very strict experiments.

I think the big reasons my first grow went hermie was because they were shitty genetics, and I couldn't stop poking my head in to look at them during the night cycle.What a noob.

Plants: "shut the dang door woman"!!

Maybe I shouldn't tell you that I'm on a voluntary sabbatical and I have jars of it laying around... :mrgreen:
