New Grower Indoor to Outdoor

[Mr Piggy]

The sun will definately give them more light and they may get a little bigger, but nothing is going to make it faster. Remember that moving them outside under the sun is going to shock them a little bit, maybe stunt some growth. Imagine growing up in a low light cave and then all of a sudden getting tossed into the sun for the first time. Just don't bring them back inside after bringing them out, you'll bring in beasties with you.

If you're legal, lots of options...take them outside...you can do a number of things to keep the roots cool. One would be place all the small containers into a larger container (30 gal Rubbermaid tote, etc) and fill that with some type of medium...

Next time around use larger containers...:thumbs:

For watering, if you're legal, lots of options...Blu-Mats, a large reservoir with a submersible pump hooked up to a hose, the hose hooked up to drip line running into each container...put it on a timer to run 15-20 minutes daily, etc...but a trusted friend would be much better for now if you had one to water while you're gone...

I never thought about it could shock them! I think I'll just leave as is for now and hope they do okay and I'll have help with watering if they haven't finished.

Yes, next time bigger pots. Right now this is over my head so will leave well enough alone and see what happens. Thank you.
