Direct or Indirect sunlight?

**CRBooya** · 12-27-2009, 09:29 AM

I have some clones that were given to me that were originally growing inside. I got them and put them outside in the shade - they have been in the shade for the last 8 days since i got them.

I put them out in the direct sunlight twice. Once they got 2 hours and then yetserday I gave them 20 mins.

It seems like they can't handle the direct sunlight.

They have started to flower now since I got them.

Should I attempt to slowly transition them back into direct sunlight or just let them flower for the next 2 months in the indirect sunlight?

thanks for the input.

Thanks - I gave them 1 hour today and they seem to have survived ok without any drying or twisting.

The leaves do look a little spotty though and I read that was from iregular light cycles etc... It's hard to tell if they want the direct sunlight or not... will try giving them 90 mins tomorrow.

Also it was pretty windy today and I think that helped to keep them cool.

I just don't want to dry them out.

k thanks gonna try 2-2.5 hrs tomorrow and then day after going to transplant them to 1 gallon pots, right now they are in small ones.

right on brother, ya they should be able to handle direct sunlight in no time

today they had close to 4 hours in the sun and there was no wilting

Also they are looking really perky other than the small spotting they have which I beleive is from irregular light.

tomorrow morning I will water them and put them in the sun and then also I am gonna go buy some 1 gallon pots and transplant them because they are now 1 foot tall and the pots they are in are only like 6" high.
