In spring, if I put out photoperiod plants that'd been growing indoors under 24 hrs, & they're put outside into 14 hrs that gets an extra few minutes each day, would it continue in veg, or start flowering & then revert? Not related to this grow, but appreciate the info. Thanks!!

They will go into flowering. If you go from 24 to 14 then the difference from 6h is enough to induce flowering. A photoperiodic is inducing flowering when the days are shorter and that is why during an outdoor grow you will see blooming after the summer solstice aka when the days becomes shorter

No (90% of the time) Need a couple days of 12 or hours complete darkness to trigger a flower. Moonlight is fine but any external lights from your house or neighbours could prolong the veg if you're worried but make sure it's gone for flowering because it can stop flower or re-veg (Security Lights Motion Sensor, etc.) The 10% that could trigger it would be stress and/or genetic related but if you're starting small plants for a full summer grow they'll be fine 👍 Many people start their plants indoors with a longer light cycle to get a good base plant faster to transplant outside.

Why not just start them at 14 hrs. Remember you have to harden off the plant when you take it outside.

There is no single answer. It happens that they bloom to the end with brooms. Sometimes they bloom at first, the sweat goes over to re-vegetation. There have been cases of plants dying. But mostly flowering and re-vegetation in May.

1) You must understand that in the grow box we create the most favorable conditions for our plants. Therefore, the fact that you take them periodically outside will not make them better, or maybe vice versa. 2) Consider that outside your plant can be pollinated (if carried out during the flowering period) from wild strains of cannabis (the crop will be of lower quality), or the infection can get into the ground or insects attack your plant ... Different things happen. I advise you to cover your sprout with a plastic cup and watered as it dries with a weak solution of fertilizer or just a weak raster roots fertilizer 60-70% of the recommended dose (so as not to burn the young root)

Grow indoors until spring with 18/20 hours and gradually lower the hours before taking them outside and thus approaching the 14 hours of light from the outside so that the shock is not too much. If you want monstrous plants outdoors, take your plants out of the closet with 6 months of vegetative and you will see, you will need a good place.

It's hard to say, each strain will react differently but most would need less than 12 hours of sun to trigger flowering.

With them being in 24 hours of light then going to 14 hours I would say shortening the time would make them start to flower. Especially since veg happens at 18 hours of light or more.
