This is my first time posting and any help would be appreciated. If you clone and start indoors, what light cycle would you use to make the transition outside successful? Last year, we started the clones indoors under 18/6. Once outside, they started flowering. What is the least amount of hours of light can you clone under and still get a healthy crop that will transition outside without any shock to them? Should I wait until later in the summer, say end of June, before putting outside? Thanks.

I like the fact that they flower as soon as I put them out side. I veg indoors 18/6 til they are the size i want and then put them outside to flower. I get several good harvests a year. If you don't want them to flower that soon you'll have to slowly reduce your lighting down so it's close to what it is outdoors.

if they flower this easy then your best option is June 7-21 ,this will give them the biggest frame possible ansd reduce chances of getting 1 foot stunted midgets.

whatever time u plan to put your plants out, set your light schedule to the outside light hours. so if your gonna plant end of may, its about 15/9 outside give or take some mins. then your indoor cycle should be set as that. you could probably get away with an hr more, but I'd personally keep it at 15/9 to be safe.
