after dormancy...

[adnedarn]

ok, so we are getting ready for the most of our plants to take a nap...  (wish I could sleep for 4 months!!

)  lets say right now my plants are grown only by artificial light.  but next growing season i want to grow by sunlight...  do I need to work the plant into sunlight slowly since it is not used to it?  or since the plant is kinda sorta starting over...  it will be able to adapt to this ok?
thanks in advance

I'd take the time to harden them off.  Mother Nature can be a harsh mistress

 

.  She doesn't pamper our plants like we do and they will need to get used to temperature and other weather related changes, as well as harsh sunlight.
