Ive had a plant for 1 1/2 months and have been planning to move it outside soon. Its been under 24/0 lights for 2 or 3 weeks because I cant use my timer.

i've been starting to worry a lot though, because i dont have super long days were I live yet (VA). So would moving it out from a 24/0 light schedule to a 13/11 one outside put it into flowering?

Also, it was inside so it didnt get a thick stem, I mean its sturdy but do you think it will survive outside?

Added Question:
I put two small plants less than 6" outside in a clear rubbermade but dont have the lights to harden them off. Will this be bad?

It will go into flowering. Most will then revert to veg, but that's a lot of trauma.

I cut my lighting by an hour a week until I'm at 15/7 and they go outdoors.

thats only 22 hours of light, were did the other two hours go??? hahaha jk i think you meant 15/9:bigjoint::lol:
 
You need to (harden plant off)by putting it outside 3hrs,5,hrs etc until its used to being outside the room just keep an eye on it if she starts to wilt bring back indoors, an open window and fan will work too if no backyard,when shes hard put her in her home,wont flower will stay veg days get longer and longer,get some fans to take care of the stretch and move light closer,top it also or lst her,good luck,or wait a next month,
 
LOL ummm, is there a lot of wind? Isn't it cold in VA man? I'm going to move mine outside pretty soon too. Had here for about 10 weeks now..I topped it a week and a half ago. Doing pretty good. You should be find if the weather conditions are well enough.
