Plants are 5 weeks old * my plants are on a 12/1...

Hi @hydroponicganja! In my opinion, indoor>outdoor, especially for home growers. A decent outdoor grow will require a sealed but well ventilated greenhouse, daily cares for pest prevention, and a bit of luck for the weather / sun exposure. Handling those parameters indoor is way much easier. This is why we usually say that indoor grown weed is better than outdoor, and this is why medicinal cannabis must be grown indoor. Now about the light schedule, I won't change anything, unless you really want to experiment re-veg and monstercropping (chances for a successful operation are quite low, chances to loose everything are quite high). You did great job during the whole veg stage, I would keep them flowering with the same environment until harvest. Hope this will help, keep us updated and happy growing! 👊
