Abnormal early flowering in outdoor Mazar clones?

Hello.

Managing my garden today, I noticed my Mazar al-sherif plants had started developing calyxes at the nodes, despite being only about a foot tall.

The clones were purchased at club, transplanted into small pots, "hardened-off" for about about two weeks, then transplanted into their final bigger pots.

The only thing in their environment that has changed was the transplant into their final pots with a tiny bit of 3-4-3 foxfarm peace of mind. The plants are not in fun sun, they receive about 6-7 hours of direct sunlight a day Other than that, no fertilizers have been applied. Soil is a mixture of compost and ocean forest.

The Mazars were the healthiest plants of the bunch, and even now, they look healthy, despite having the starts of female flowers mid june.

Garden is in Cali, so I was of not expecting flowering to start for a few weeks.


So

Is anyone familiar with Mazar encountering this problem? Are they flowering normally and I should have just started way earlier? Did I fuck up their photoperiod somehow? I read on another forum Mazar requires twice the amount of nitrogen as other strains, could this be contributing to the problem?

Does anyone have any advice on this subject? Even just your experiences growing Mazar outdoors would be appreciated.

If I can find a camera I'll bump this post with some pictures.

Thanks for guys' time.

Some plants do this naurally. Just keep an eye on it, you'll know if its normal or not. A pic would help greatly. Try to get one - good luck!

I have a afghan clone that I put outside, it started flowering over a month ago :eek: I am not sure why, I usually get 6-8 hours of direct outside sun but I've never had seeds flower this early (this was my first year of outdoor clones)

Well I panicked and built a grow tent and am now indoors.....I still don't know why the afghan flowered so early.....but I figure it was nature doing it's thing

Yes, when you get clones from a club they are normally under 24/0 light , bring them home and put them under 18/6 for two weeks, then drop it down to 16/8 for a week or two, then you should be safe to put them outside

has nothing to do with 24 hour light, i bring all my clones outside direct from 24 hours and they take off like a bat out of hell. i think it has to do with the strain. also some people take cutting from plants that were JUST put into harvesting(bottom branches) so when they go into 24hour light they have to revert back to grow and will show signs of bud but will correct within week

It is both, believe me, I have been through this...Right now my Sweet Tooth 3 , REB, and CheesexRecon mums are going into flower while my one and only SD IBL has just about laughed it off... 24H light at any stage will make some strains go into flowering, avoid it if you can.
