Depends on strains, but I guarantee most strains would go directly into flowering in that environment.

There is still enough light in the shade to prevent flowering, even a strong porch light can do that..t you might wanna wait another week or two before putting them out. Just want to make sure the day hours are long enough. I've had plants start flowering putting them out early/mid May

I was thinking of it as a maximum light cycle of 14/10, which would cause a lot of strains to flower even without much shade, but given that days are getting longer, I'd say if you wait a week or 2 then plant, you'll probably be fine.

I'm a little confused by the way.

Have you already planted indoors and are asking if you should transplant outdoors?

If indoors:
What kind of system is it currently growing in? (lights, growing medium, etc.)

If not planted:
Do you plan to start from Seed or Clone?

i have a 600 indoor and i want to put them out because they are getting too tall but im afraid they will go straight into flower and then go back to veg in like a month when there is more light . what do you think ?
