Germinated.
It's a strange situation because strawberry pie still flowering and they are in the same growbox, so I have dimmered fc3000 to 50% for sure it's to much for the little one...
The question is simply.
The answer instead complex.
Can I vegetate at 18 hours of light in a tent and then gradually go down to the hours of outdoor light to bring it to flowering without having to wait for September and October? Tips and tricks are welcome!
Thanks in advance!
ok I give up, I'll have to wait for September or October to harvest, it's not feasible as in a month and a half there will be 15 hours of light here, how about if I go down from 18 to 15 hours of light in the tent before putting them outside and then gradually acclimate them to sunlight?
think i misread the first time.. so these will stay inside the entire time? yes, that's exactly what you are supposed to do.
if you want to take an indoor plant after it enter bloom phase and stick it outside, this would probably by unwise. you'd have to be certain it's getting a long enough darkness period outside or it would re-vege. also, it would have to acclimate itself to the sun. this may take a cycle of exposure and removal from the sun as it is a whole different context than artificial lighitng and the plant won't be able to handle it well. it'll likely be droopy, wilting and maybe even some spots within 1-2 hours of direct, intense sunlight. it can probably harden off to it, but if this is mid flower, it's not wise to stress it like this while growing buds.
so yeah, anytime you control length of darkness you can cause the bloom phase. don't inerrupt that dark period and it'll turn out fine. it doesn't have to be a gradual change. the plant simplay shifts gears when it has a long enough dark cycle. it is a hormonal response.
The answer is simple as well... No
The dark hours during your entire flowering period need to be longer than at least 10 hours per day. Otherwise the plant will go back into the vegging stage, this called revegging.
When you want plants to flower early and harvest 2 times per summer you need to use autoflowering seeds. They are not stuck to the dark period and flower even with 24 hours light per day. So use autoflowers, they are better for outside. You can also choose to just grow during the 3-4 hottest months of the year to get better quality and yield.
Enjoy your grow!

Elpicor Hoping in a good drying stage, stay tuned...
Looking amazing! I will be starting in a few weeks with Biobizz as well, any tips? (I have the starter pack = root, grow, bloom, top max and heaven). Thanks! and amazing plants ;)
@DabblingDoggo,
hello, thank you I hope to be able to keep it beautiful, not that I'm a great expert, it also depends on what type of crop you want to make eg. outdoor or indoor autoflowering , feminized or regular, medium, super soil or coco etc, but I try to tell you how I usually do. I use biobizz medium soil with humus and then I start with fishmix instead of biogrow because it can also be used as a spray and gives an extra boost with nitrogen, but grow is fine too. in the first two weeks root juice 2ml/lt and 1 ml/lt of bioheaven then you start with the grow+bioheaven, I suggest you also take the calmag unless your water naturally contains it.
"I let the soil stabilize for 3 days leaving it in the sun and wetting it every day without sowing for now" βοΈππ i do the same but with coco coir a week in advance.
