 If I put a flowering plant which has been feminized (male and female parts) will it still seed?

Here is the scenario
Say I was to have grown some plants indoors under hps (1000 watts) and sprayed them with colloidal silver and they are just about ready to start to drop some pollen.
Would it be ok to move the plants outside into a shady part of my yard and let the plants continue to flower and finish their grow cycle?
Note the plants are NOT auto flower. They are ipot, critical kush and Northern light.
It is spring time here in Ontario Canada and I doubt we are going to have anymore frost. I was just going to set them outside in the back yard under the big trees. No direct sunlight will hit them, only diffused or indirect.
The two main worries I have are:
1. Would the sunlight kill the plants?
2. Would the plants stop flowering and/ or producing pollen and go back into veg mode?
Plants have been flowering for 3 1/2 weeks.
thanks guys for any feedback or advice.

Well the sunlight wont kill them. But you should slowly acclimate them to the outside climate. And a shady area is not ideal for Marijuana.
And yes they will revert back to a vegetative state.

my experience ( which is a wee bit) is that whenever I have tried to move a plant into sunlight from hps, most of the leaves die off, and it has to grow a whole new set.
So that was my idea of keeping it in a shady spot in the yard for a week or two until it pollinates, and them I was going to move the plant back inside under the lights to finish its run.
My thoughts are is perhaps every day around 5pm, I will just put a large plastic garbage can over the plant until after sunset and then take it off.
My hope is to get the bees to do the handy work.
think it will work>?

It sounds like you are over complicating this whole thing. Just leave it inside dude. Throw a fan in the room, the plant will pollinate itself.

I have five different kinds of plants feminizing, so I am trying to keep them separate so I can get some seeds and pollen.
It's only for three weeks. After 3 weeks the last of the reg. harvest will be done.
Of course we all just talking hypothetically.
