I am trying to figure out if my plants are flowering normally, or prematurely. So I put my babies outside around May 20th and about a week and 2 days ago I noticed they had started flowering. is the beginning stages of flower. Where I am located the day light duration starts to decrease on July 15th. So I predicted they would flower around that time since they need a decrease in light to flower. I started them indoors on March 20th. And they grew indoors in a tent Intell I moved them outdoors. I put them in the woods hidden away. And as the vegetation in the trees above started to get thick I think that’s why they flowered. Because it blocked a lot of the light shining down on them. Is this ok?

They definatly in a couple weeks flower. Maybe they are auto flowering plants and not light sensitive? More than likely are. Its sees like they are flowering just fine, but you might lose a bit of yield if they dont get enough light. Looking good anyway.

No there photoperiod, I ordered them off online. This is a good observation tho if I just had had these seeds from some smoke! But no I got them online.
They should be fine, you are growing them in the shade and they are receiving enough of a different photo-period to being flowering. My shade grown deps flower early every year, I wouldn’t worry about it.

How many hours did you leave the lights on for when you grew them indoors? I have had plants inside on an 18-6 schedule that started flowering when they were moved outdoors, where the day length was about 14 hours.
