Flowering due to stress

I'll make this quick...I started a couple seeds late, and due to weather and my schedule, had to but them on the backburner. I should have transplanted them into the ground like a month ago. Anyways, I went out the other day to finally transplant, and they had started flowering already, maybe 5 days into. I knew it was because they were in pots too small and I hadn't fertilized them in about 4 weeks. I transplanted them that day, fertilized them, and crossed my fingers. What else could I do?
Any ideas whats gonna happen? Are they 100% to hemie? Will they just continue to flower?

Expect them to continue to flower for a few weeks, then revert to veg and start a real flower later. You might get some fluff from the early flower attempt that could encourage mold.
If it's a very early strain then you might get a prolonged half-flower half-vegetative state before it enters full flower.
But you caught it early - I think they will revert to a good vegetative state and they still have a chance to grow fairly big.
I hope you gave them some good loose soil up against the rootballs to grow into.
Do you have pics? Could be a good idea to document this because you're not the first this has happened to. Check my 2009 grow where I planted out some rootbound plants in august - or was it july.
And it's still not too late to start more seeds.
