Flowering question

So, my plants are within their first week of flowering, and I ended up putting them into flowering during the 12 o' clock hour, but I want to bring them down to 7 am and 7 pm so I can give them the most light from the sun, would it be okay to bring my babies out of dark and light an hour early until I finally get down to 7 am and 7pm? Or should I bring them down very little at a time?

I need to know within 30 minutes. Feedback please.

yea that should be fine

Just make sure you only do it in 1 hour incraments to be safe. No more. So like take out of dark 30 min early and put back in dark 30 min later untill you get to what time you want them at. Make sense?
Makes plenty sense, I was thinking 30 minute increments would be nice, thanks bro. +rep

It's my understanding that you should always keep their dawn the same as what it was in veg.

But if you must alter their habits...you can do it an hour at a time.

But be aware that this will cause a certain degree of stress to your plants. And if you are constantly moving them from indoor to outdoors--this is the best way to introduce pests to your indoor garden.

Anyway you cut it--you are asking for trouble imo.

I had it at 7 am before but my phone died which was my alarm to wake me so I can take my babies out, and I ended up waking up at 10 ha. And so on... so I'm just gunna try bringing it down an hour a day with 30 minute increments.

i did something like this last year... bringing them in and out. let me tell u doing this sucks!!! (u probably realize this already). Its such a pain waking up everyday, u wont be able to do it everyday at 7 and 7. Im not saying it wont work, but in my opinion speaking from experience find a better way to flower. Like a small grow room with odor control... After 2-3 missed days i decided to let them flower naturally in September. I know thats a long way off... lol but ur plants will be huge by then

Ha I know it sucks having to wake up early, but it's what gets me up in the morning... then I go back to sleep usually lol, anyhow... I can't grow in my house cause I already got caught once and my mom would just find out again. =/
