Thanks for all the support & info guys! I'm thinking about putting her outside, but its quite hot here in NY now. I'm worried the heat may stress her. And since she may be getting more than 12 hours daylight, would this put her back into veg? Sorry for the crappy pic, its all I could get at the moment.

I am afraid so,dink...the longer daylight will put her back in veg...but on the other hand,with the longer growing time outdoors,you should get a much better harvest from her....again,sorry to hear things are rough for ya right now...trust me,I know exactly what you guys are going through...Look at my new journal,if ya get a chance,and leave me some input

Six weeks into flower should be fine to put her outside.

she will be fine...she will get a little funny lookin as she reverts back to veg...then her internal clock will kick her back over when its time....read an article about a canadian grower who does this every year,he claimed his never goes back to veg....I don't know about that,sounds too good to be true

Once they're that far into flower, there is no coming back. I have a crop outside right now that was flowering for less than two weeks indoor, and has been outside in the long Cali sun and still flowering away.

Have you ever grown outdoor?

I think that heat stress may be more an issue, slowing down the plant's progress. Be SURE to keep the rootball cool. I've ended up just laying a piece of OSB leaning across my pots, does a fine job of keeping those black plastic pots much cooler, and the plants are showing their ability to tolerate higher temps in return. :)

Yeah, fuck that!

Seamaiden has a good point about heat stress. I saw some significant heat stress when I put my last batch outside, but they were fragile clones and it was a blazing week, and my patch is fully exposed, so it was a bit different.

In any case, outside will be better than nothing I think. Take measures like Seamaiden suggested and even give them some partial shade at first if you can. That is one luxury you can afford with pots.

I'm not trying to dog you, just saying that reading about and doing are two different things. I've read tons about hydro, but would never give advice on it, as I've never done it. So much is in the experience.
