is anyone else having issues with this shit?? i placed my plants outside 3 months ago was out of the country for a while I come back and almost all my plants from seed minus one gg#4 clone have all gone into what looks like pre flower with no signs of revegging... pretty fuckin lame becsuse now they have to spend whatever time i have left outside revegging. Should i slap them under some lights for 14/10 to revegg them back asap or just leave them outside and start new seeds? basically
asking what would you do

Of course they are going into early flower If you had them outdoors for the last 3 months. That is why most ppl do not have sexually mature plants outside full time before May because the outdoor light is too low and will do exactly this (of course unless you add supplemental lighting to them)

Well it is what it is but you will still get more of a yield if you let them go outside in the end vs. Bringing them indoors to finish now.

Lesson learned....now dont make the same mistake next yr.

Not saying that putting them out uber early wont put em in flower, I went outside May 1st, anything that got "hardened off" for more than 72hrs went into bloom on me. Very disappointing as it's my first year w/ extended season. Anyhow OP, I'll be damned if I chop and too big of containers to slap back inside. I'm going to be praying they go reveg today and even then its gonna be a nightmare with all this damned pruning that's gonna have to go down. Good luck, post an update when you figure out what you're gonna do

Some places even early may is still too early. You have to have more then 14.5 hours of light. I dont get that til mid may here. Anything below that and mine will flower.
Also did you reduce your indoor light schedule to more closely match the outdoor?

Sure didn't, I was under the impression I would be g2g. Seems I manage to learn something the hard way every year.
Do you think this could effect quality? By means of severe stress early on? Seems reasonable that they have plenty of time to recover but last thing I want is abunch of em to herm out later on because of a life of stress.

Just looked at the NOAA calculator, definitely went too early. Needed a few more weeks to be 14.5 hours. This is something I wont forget.

Those are my other reveg plants.
You will have a ton of growth and might even get a really good yield. Heck I even purposely revegged my plants indoors before I stuck them outside for that very purpose. Hope your trimming hand is in good shape come harvest!
