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?

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.
