Flowering But Don't Know Why

Natize · May 29, 2017

Ok guys the strain is big bud xxl and a few days ago I noticed a lot of pre flowers on my plant I think she is flowering.but I just don't understand how this could happen all my plants went outside at the same time last month 4/18 and only this one plant is showing signs.i live in central cali.we get 14.5 hours of sun light all plants are in same location and get same amount of light.theyve been fed 2 times so far. I feed fox farms grow big and big bloom as the schedule calls for but I'm stumped as to why this is happening to only one of my plants.3 are clones and the big bud xxl that looks like it's flowering is from seed.any help will be appreciated.

I ordered 2 seeds of this strain and gave one to my friend and went over to look at his and its not looking like mine

That is flowering though right

The only thing I can think is it's an early finisher bro. That's a little more than preflower. It's actually going to be better for your plant to flower now. Some have a genetic disposition to flower early and finish early. Usually come from areas where summers are very short as far as warm weather.

The benefits I see is a stronger UV index during flower and fall rains won't beat your buds up too badly.

Don't compare your plant to his. You more than likely have a different phenotype.

So do you think I should leave it outside or keep it in flower by bringing it inside after it gets 12 hours of sunlight to make sure it does not re veg

Dude its outside. Mother nature knows what to do. Its possible its a big ass preflower. I think you should just ride it out homey.

What was the light schedule before you put them out? Clearly, you triggered flower by reducing light duration. We are not yet at Solstice, and your latitude has too few hours of daylight at that date for many strains as clones. You might have gotten away with it further north where the days are longer. I think I can safely assume these are not from seed as age of the plant has everything to do with what you see.

Flowering is a hormonal response to light period - and it varies quite a bit depending on strain.

These are from seed.and light schedule they were on was matched to exactly the out side time and day took a while to get em to 14 hours daylight

That would be a big ass pre flower on all branches lol

Holy crap I missed that it was a clone. Very easily triggered. A clone caries the age of the mother and clones are usually taken when the female has staggered nodes and is mature.

It is not a clone i grew it from seed.purchased on line from the vault seeds

3 of my plants are clones but the one that looks like it is starting to flower was grown from seed

Organikz · May 30, 2017

Lmao...i am getting thrown back and forth. Congrats your girls has reached maturity. It's called sexing and yess it's a preflower. 4-5 weeks is normal maturity time. Ive learned to veg until they reach maturity. They flower fast as hell.

It's throwing out a flower to ensure pollination.

Ignignokt · May 30, 2017

Could it be a auto-flower strain seed? It is weird to see flower this early, from seed. I'm at roughly your latitude and only ever see it from clones, out too early.

Organikz · May 30, 2017

In all honesty either way it's not an issue. Like I said ride it out bro. Maybe an auto like @Ignignokt said. Might be an early girl. The buds will be lovely. Just keep the course.

I just think that one plant just didnt take to being put outside, after being put outside.. You prob just got an unstable pheno.. It might even throw nanners at some point..

Sorry for the confusion but it just had me stumped because none of the clones have shown this other than lil.white pistols but not as much as in this picture.so my question is do I still keep giving veg nutes or do I switch to my flowering nutes open sesame cha ching beasties bloom tiger bloom or is it still vegging?

Organikz · May 30, 2017

Ive had mine start throwing 4 pistils at each node. When the nodes grow in a staggered fashion it's a sign of maturity. Your plant is learning to make budsets that will create bigger flowers. Shes ready for the D.

I would stay the course and learn what you can from it.. The plant will show you if it needs p or pk.
