Hi I was thinking of some way I can force my plants to flower nice and early outdoor this year. The only way I could think of was to walk up at 7 pm cover them with a blanket and at 7am go up and take it off. Then I got to thinking maybe I could hook up motors to a timer to remove and put the blanket back on. I was wondering if anyone had any other ideas. And also if any of you have ever herd of someone doing this.

It's done and can be done *But*
It's a tough thing to automate
Black trash bags, 50 gal. drums or camo garbage cans/bags.
Not sure I would let(trust) a machine pull a blanket across one of my Darlin's.
Now, I might let one Lift a rigid container straight up off them.
May find myself in the position to Have to do somethin' to get them to finish.

True that input is helpful I thinking about it now it does seem nearly impossible to achieve total darkness outdoors. The only reason I ask is because the main strain Im getting clones from are my indoor plants romulan. They dont finish until mid october. I may just have to pull them out early.
I found a place that sells tarps that are used to cover billboard signs for 80 bucks. They are 20 mil I think and UV treated. Some PVC and one of these, you would be set. What's even better, you will have a random advertisement on the tarp 
LOL
LOLNot impossible to achieve
Automate, near impossible.
Course money makes everything possible.
Build a feed barn and put hinges on the roof

I have seen an ad for an automated greenhouse to force flowering. Can't find it right now ( I am at work) but here is another:

Oh Hell Yeah, see it's all about how much you wanta spend.
"The Auto Flowerer has a unique control system that allows the tent to open and close so that the grower can control the light cycle and gain valuable months to the short growing season in colder climates."
for a mere 5000us$
I'll take 2
