We don't got 12 hours of darkness all year only from about Early Sept to late Feb to late March give or take.
So you can put plants outside now and they will be 12/12 and they will veg/flower in the 3-4 months season.
Got mine 2 outside for this short season so I got a little after this holiday season is over. Put them outside about a month ago straight from seeds and they are about 1" or bigger now.
Man Love being able to grow all year.
Irie Hawaii, I say throw those plants ya got outside and hope for some good short season bud. Unless you can keep them vegging until next year's long season I would just put them out now.
Cheshireplant has got it right. If your planting for long season wait till April/May/June to plant your girls. Thats the only thing I need, Some CFLS so I can have a mother to clone from and keep those plants coming.
