Flowering AutoFlower.....or is it?

Way back in March, I started 4 seeds. 3 Pandora autoflowers and 1 Dinafem Cheese. After they germinated, and I planted them in their pots, I thought for a second I mixed them up, and didn't know which one was the Dinafem. But the pot I thought was the Dinafem I marked anyway. Well, the Dinafem took off in the Happy Frog soil. The 3 Pandoras were terrible and deformed looking. I blamed this on Happy Frog being a little too hot for them in the beginning after a little bit of research. So I took a chance and transplanted 3 little tiny seedlings with one single pathetic looking taproot into some jiffy seed starting mix. After a couple weeks they really started to look good, so I planted the jiffy pots straight into some Happy Frog, 5 gallon pots. I put them outside, in ful sun all day. And they literally took off! In the meantime, my Dinafem was looking great from the start. Lush green growth, it was about 8 inches tall after the three little auto's were put back in Happy Frog. Since this plant has all summer to grow, I transplanted it into a 1.5 gallon pot i believe, as it was going to eventually be put in the ground. I put these plants outside in early april, since it was warm, and I brought them in at night when temps dropped close to freezing. The three autoflowers are doing great, and 2 are showing signs of flowering. But the Dinafem started to flower about 2 weeks ago and it hasn't slowed down. I thought it might because the days were pretty short, but it hasn't slowed down and we're getting in that time where the days are getting longer and everyone I know is begining to put plants out. It keeps flowering. I'm concerned now that it is a Pandora autoflower, but I am not sure because it is a different green than the other 3, and the 3 of them had the same probelm early in life. So here I am with a flowering plant in a tiny pot, not sure if it will go back to veg and is the Dinafem or if it is an autoflower I got mixed up. I wanna put the bloom nutes to it so bad, but not if it's the Dinafem. and my 3 autos all look great, with 2 showing hairs. But, since they took so long in their early life to start I am not sure how they will turn out.

Sorry for the long rambling post, haha! I'm gonna take a bong rip and go try to get some pictures!

Damn, I just read my post again, *BUDS, and I realized I never really made my problem clear! Pretty much, I have a plant flowering in a small pot that I am not sure if it is an autoflower, or if I put it out to early and it started flowering. If I knew it was an autoflower, I would put the bloom nutrients to it. I guess I will just wait and see. Plus, it's in a pretty small pot, so I am sure it will be no time for it to be root bound.

Sorry that everyone of my pictures from my iPhone turns sideways, but here is the flowering one. You can see the budsites forming. White hairs everywhere.

I took some better pictures.

Flowering plant: Autoflower? Or flowering because it has been outside for a month early?



Autoflower that was a weak little bitch early on in life. Not sure how she will turn out. Or maybe this is my Dinafem. My other two autoflowers are taller, and have started flowering a little.

OK, I think I have solved this, and this rambling thread is now useless.

The picture above of the short plant in the pot now has some white hairs. I just ran out and took a closer look. The other two also have white flowers. They have been flowering for a week or so. The upclose picture above, my mysterious plant that is flowering has to be the Cheese, right? I've had this plant outside since beginning-mid April, and even though it is in direct sun for 90% of the day, the days just might not be long enough and I can expect this plant to start vegging again anytime now, right?
