Help With Too Early Flowering

[Lojo 16]

Hi All,
Haven't grown in awhile. This time started March 14 with seeds Indoors, (6 plants). Moved outside in early June, and started super cropping (Probably shouldn't have stressed them so soon). Any way, a couple of them started budding, and I thought I got Auto's by mistake. Well, they stopped growing, frozen in time, no revegging, nothing. I don't want to bring them back indoors for obvious reasons. (BUGS) Thinking of putting them in my dark shed a few hours before darkness every day to try and finish what looked like was going to be a great yield. Any good help with this will be appreciated. They are now 17 weeks.

There are others on this forum reporting the same kind of thing. Maybe it's just weird weather, I don't know. I do know that you probably don't want them to reveg. You'd lose a few weeks waiting for them to get back to normal veg and still have almost two more months to veg outdoors if they did but the buds would have to go. If they are large enough for your liking and you think you can manage moving them twice a day every day for about eight weeks then your plan will work. You might break down and get a tent and grow light too if the prospect of lugging them in and out is too demanding.

Thank you UF, makes sense to me. I don't want to lose these colas. Before moving it back indoors, what can I do to insure the bugs don't come with it ? Any good advice ?

I have seen this with everything I started inside then went outside. I think the trick would be to follow the daylight with the timers so they get the same hours when they go outside. I just planted outside when it got warm enuf. I also had to cover for frosts. The hours of dark are getting longer, some of my photos are starting the change.

I never had that problem I've had them flower in March before I got them outside idk if it helps but on warm afternoons early spring my plants go out in the sun

Yeah next season I'm trying a light ive been moving them from window to window following the sun but yeah lite timed with daylight is going to be me

I have that problem with my ATF, had 2 main colas about a foot long. On advice of people here, and the seedbank.....I trimmed off those 2 tops and hung them up to dry. Still kind of crying a bit.
They were far too chunky, and yeah it was stalling out as well. My other plant made it thru to reveg without too many bud sites, she's nearly 8' tall now and I can honestly say I had no idea.

I'll let the 2 tops dry overnight then throw them in the salad spinner thing to trim.

SCIENCE!

I thank everyone for their response. I just started it on 12/12 back indoors. I'll keep you posted in a few weeks.
