Spring Equinox in Florida - When to put Auto's Outside

I’ve got 4 Skywalkers and 3 Gelatos that went from 20/4 to 12/12 on January 12th. They were 65 days old. Skywalkers, 56" high. Gelato’s, 48 inches high. They are now in full flowering stage. Question: I’m wanting to put them outside now cause weather temps allow it. But light is sunrise to sunset is now 11 hrs. Will they know the difference? I need to put them out to make room for 13 plants from the starter room that are 1 month behind the above. Those will go from 1500W grow/flower light at 20/4 and then go outside at Equinox. They will think it is Fall, but really Spring… :slight_smile: I’ve got Gold Leaf to start and need the start room. I’m not real concerned but thinking there are some experts out there that can assist. I grew up on a farm and have a degree in Ag. We grew tobacco growing up and these “Weeds” are a piece of cake…
Mr. Bergman… I thank you…

Uh, they’re autos. They don’t care. So long as your environment is good for them; put em out!

If you are talking about the Gold Leaf; being a photo it is sensitive to ambient light. The rule is 14 hours of daylight and at least 8 hours of direct sun. There should be an almanac for your area.

Will autos reach 4 1/2 ft tall?

Oh, yeah! Depending on pot size and strain.

Thanks. They were going out anyway but you’re right. The “Girls” won’t know the difference.

I think you are fine in your location. It’s good you asked though! Make sure we get to see some bud porn.

Bobbydigital: guess I’m stretching it as I’m measuring from bottom of pot (roots). They be 56” Skywalker ‘s or 48” of measuring just plant. Sent pics.
