Moving plant during flowering

Hi all

Is it possible to move a plant outdoor that has already started flowering (3 weeks) into a sunnier location? I am wondering if this will have any negative affect as one of my plants is not getting enough sunlight and I’ve got enough space to put it in a very close location that has far more direct light. Thanks.

Its already outside?

Yes just in a spot that has way less direct light.

Do it, it'll thank you.

If you are just going to carry it over, sure. If you have to replant it, I wouldn't.

True that ^

I watched my friend move a few in his backyard. Carefully lifted the pot/bag (1 at a time) just high enough to put on a fridge box (flattened) then slid it acroos the yard to its new spot.

I am in a fabric bag and I chase the sun around every day. Just make sure the roots haven’t grown through the bottom of the bag otherwise you’ll may shock or cause other harm

I was tempted to move mine, seeing how atm they only get 5 hours of dirrect sunlight.

My area I chose is small and I “had” great sunlight almost all day, but with the changing seasons the sun moves through the sky in a different pattern. Now the best area isn’t the most concealed. I still get decent sunlight where there at but when I have the opportunity I chase the sun around my yard. I’d say 4 or 5 days out of the week I can get full sun from dawn to dusk. Been doing this for the 5 weeks or so. I do use small tarp underneath my bags because I am on grass to keep the bugs down. I have seen no downside
Next year I’ll move my concealment to the late summer full sun area (or trim some tree branches) and deal with the partial sun during vegetation

Thanks everyone! I will definitely be moving it in this case.

Just be uber careful and dont move em more than you need to. Roots are kinda pussy

Haha yea, I’ve got them in smart pots and have not had any issue with the roots passing through so I think I’ll be fine there. I was just curious if exposing them to more sunlight after they had been in a shadier spot would cause them unwanted stress. I’m trying to avoid any herms or airy buds this year.

No roots coming out? The end of veg mine had roots coming out of everywhere in 15 g smartpots. Since these pots air prune you wont see too much roots coming out. If the pot is on the ground on soil you very well might have roots coming out on the bottom.
