Outdoors to Indoors

quick question for the experts out there....

i started 25 seedlings outdoors and they have been sprouted for about 3-4 days and are now about 2-3 inches tall... they are going to be placed into an very advanced indoor growing system.

now heres the problem,
it is going to be about 5 days until i will be capable of putting them into the indoor op.

my buddy told me to "keep them out of the sunlight!"

he said that the babies will go into shock once under the hps lighting of the indoor op.

should i worry about something like this and keep them inside under 24 hr bathroom lighting instead?

any input helps thanks fellow growers!

well the shock will happen more so from changing of soil/pots not so much outdoor to indoor or vice versa. i say bring em inside, thats wat i did. When they are outside u cant control nearly as many aspects of ur plant including the light cycle which will cause it to start flowering before its ready

no! it wont flower just cuz he brings it in as long as he keeps his lights on 18/6! and no man you plants wont go into shock i was just saying that little seedlings like that really dont need that much light but it will still work! bring em in and put them under 18/6 for veg. then when your ready 12/12 for flower

thats what im saying. if he leaves it outside it will flower too early but NOT if u bring it in. sorry i didnt specify that clear enough =/
