I got an early vixen plant, I have been growing it since late February inside until frost was gone and could plant outside. Living in northern BC we get 16 hrs of day light. My plant has grown to 7 feet and the stock is roughly 3.5 inches.i only have couple months left of actual growing time before winter hits again and just wondering if my plant will be done budding or can I speed it up to the budding process ?

Where are you from? I wouldn't trip just yet.... first it looks like the node spacing is stretched out some. (Starting to stretch?)
Is there any pistils showing yet?
I live in northern Wi and due to our longer days, I flower much later then everyone else and I can let mine go til mid Oct and a couple of frosts.
Frosts won't kill it as long as it's not a hard frost. And actually it makes them turn beautiful colors.

I live in northern BC Canada . And yeah I haven't used a grow light once it's just been in my greenhouse and also second time growing still figuring out tips and tricks this year has been pretty helpful so far but still lots to learn

Then yeah that is why. If you are too worried about it, next year get early flowering strains, or autos.
You are in a green house tho...As long as it is not a long running strain you might get by okay.
(Tho it does look sativa dom...so maybe light dep isn't a bad idea as stated above)

Yeah the flower time was only supposed to be 8-9weeks.
I also have 3x bubba kush that's auto flower and black indica that's just feminized as well as my 2 early vexin

You need to get some black plastic tarp and start covering it up in the evenings and keeping it on there until later in the morning. It's getting way too much light and not nearly enough darkness.

The plant will never, ever flower if it's only getting about 7 or 8 hours of darkness.

I can tell by the leaves it's sativa dominant meaning 10weeks of flower minimum but expect 12 maybe even 14 or more if its a more landrace sativa strain.

Large breeders always lie on flowering time I can count on one hand the amount of times I've seen a breeder not put 8-9 weeks. They don't want to scare away ppl tho which is understandable

But yeah just figure out when the sunrises in your area and light dep 11 1/2hrs after that. But take off the light depressing sheet when sun goes down and you won't have moisture problems

Just go ahead an eat salt with a spoon with this fats old members advice.

"Sativa dominate, 14 weeks if land race
Gtfo here with that, you've never seen a sativa if you think theres a chance this will go 14 weeks jesus christ. Sure it's probably a hybrid as most strains are... but it's not gonna take all that effort its right on track
