If possible I jus want to veg outdoors untill the plants get big enough to flower then bring them inside on my own light schedule to induce flowering I dint want to wait till fall.

Is it possible? Any luck?

P.S This is technically my first grow and im new to here so sorry if this has been asked before I couldnt really find what I was looking for.

Being your first grow I'd recommend doing your grow from start to finish indoors.

While you'll be spending slightly more for electricity for the entire grow, you will have complete control over your environment for the whole grow. Also reduced risk of pests.

I live in Alaska and the sun never sets in mid-summer. Most of us here take advantage of that. Further I started experimenting with autos a few years ago in an attempt to get something to actually finish outdoors. So far it hasn’t happened and every Fall it’s under the lights for them too. Autos. They get big but they just can’t do it here.

Check out BotaniGard. Use weekly as a preventative. You can spray it on what you’re chopping and it won’t hurt you or the pets. Spray weekly. Trust me.

Don’t bring them in and throw them straight into flower. But a week of 16 hours or more of light should get them adjusted. Always quarantine any plants coming in. Even houseplants and garden starts.

Easy enough...how do you quarantine your plants though? I read some people do 40 days but that seems too drastic for my situation im hoping I get buds in about 120 days from start to finish...couple months in veg outside, then a couple more monthes in flower inside on 12/12 with a 1000w full spectrum LED

Seem reasonable?
( I kno strains and genetic differ)

Mine come in to an empty tent and have been sprayed weekly with BotaniGard. However if I’m given cuttings from outside my grow I do quarantine.

They do not make it to finish before freeze starts. We have about 100 frost free days.

That's exactly what this guy does. Carts those 5gal buckets to his garage to induce flowering
