Carrying plants around daily - too stressful?

Hey buds,

I recently stumled upon some more plants than my little tent can handle, plants are super crambled into it and my growing technique of training the plants into the horizontally doesn't give me benefits right now.

So I thought I could make more room by using my flower tent 24 hours a day by dividing the plants into a day and night shift.



So I end up with more spaced out plants, so that more leafs can get light which raises the yield per plant. Every 12 hours I take out the plants, put en im a dark closet and so on.

is this beneficial or does the carrying around cause too much stress and I end up with even less yield?

Can't see it being a problem as long as they get their 12 hours of darkness. Last year I had to move plants that were in flower miles away in the back of a van. Didn't do them no harm that I could tell.

Oh no not daily, had a "security" issue so had to move plants that were about 5 weeks into flower.
I honestly can't see it being a problem to move a few feet daily. As long as 12hrs dark is not disturbed, temps and other environmental issues aren't too dissimilar.

I used to grow outside then put them in the basement for 12 hours.
It worked.
So did I.
 
Yeah,

I’ve done it before with no problems.

Was growing outside on a Balcony and would bring them inside every night for 12/12.

Works perfectly fine in my experience.

I've been doing the same to give some extra hours of light to my balcony grow. Moving 3ft tall plants back and forth from my balcony to my grow room. Honestly I'm not sure if that is beneficial to the plants as you add also more chances of the plant being damaged due to daily transport. Mine actually flowered and had no big issues but again I wouldn't say is ideal.
