I put my plants out to early, now what

Ok, I asked a similar question couple weeks ago but didn't get the answer I needed.
So I put my plants out last month and it was too early now they are budding. The days are still getting longer here in NC until the 23rd of june then it starts going down. So I have big plants with bud spots and dime sized buds. Do I use the flowering feeding schedule? because alot of leaves are yellowing and I can tell they are hungry. Or do I keep them on the veg? Right now there is 14 1/2 hrs light should I try and find a dark place to give them more darkness ?

my flowering nutes do not have enough nitrogen in them to sustain green leaves during the flowering stage. i only use blooming food 2-3 time during flowering to supplement the veg nutes. i like to keep all my leaves green. GL

I would try to keep them green until the buds are a fair size. I would use an equal part NPK feed unless they show deficiency signs, then put them on the bloom formula when the buds are a fair size.

If they are already blooming- they are NOT in veg-- they must be an autoflowering strain, since you planted them only a month ago and THAT is not actually "early" for where you live... they should not have started to bloom until late July/early August unless are auto-flowering... IF you choose to take them indoors- you'll need an HID light and take them right into 12/12 and keep em blooming-- if you try to re-veg you may stress them and end up with hermaphrodites..

They are yellowing because they are blooming, and therefore need more food....
should be on flowering feed schedule except in week 4 or 5 of flower- they can get 1/2 dose of veg nutes mixed with 1/2 rate of flowering nutes for extra "N"...
what nutes are you using, and on what schedule????
That may help us answer your dilemma!

*note: equal N-P-K is formulated for non-flowering plants- corn, grass, trees etc... even in Veg, the N-P-K should not be equal for flowering plants/herbs such as cannabis---

7-4-10 (flora Nova)
5-2-6 (Ionics)
2- 1.5- 4 (Pure blend pro)
2-3-1 / 2-4-0 (Fish Emulsions)
14-7.5- 20 (high-end concentrate)
4.5- 2.5- 8 (average)

feed away and enjoy the early harvest.

Ok they are 3 differnt strains from a seedbank and none are autoflowers. I believe they started to bloom because they were on a longer light schedule while inside. Now I use advanced nutes 3 part grow,micro,bloom. So what should I do about the 14 1/2 hrs light 9 1/2 dark situation. They should be getting 12-13 hrs of dark ya know?

Seeds planted march 1st went outside in late april.

feed veg ferts, it will take few weeks to go back to veg.

Outdoor growing is not the same as indoor growing.. you let them do what they do and do NOT control anything except their feed & water (to some extent) IF they start to reveg on their own-- so be it... otherwise, they'll keep blooming away and you'll end up with HUGE buds by the end of September!!!
(and sometimes seeds DO get mixed-up by the breeders--have gotten huge sativas that were supposed to be a pure indica... it just happens)

yes this is my first outdoor grow, and wow my plants are up to my neck compared to my waist indoors. Nothings better than the sun!

Update: Buds are coming together from node to node. No growth stunt here wish they could of got taller but will still get a good early harvest.

they will re-vert back to veg for sure and the bud that started will wither up and die. had it happen to me a few years ago. did you have them under 24 hours light before you put them out? if so that would trick them to flower when u put them in the sun.. watch out for mould on the undergrowth when the new shoots pop up.

These are your correct answers . Except the buds will start shooting out single funny looking leafs and get a lot of airy growth around them and go back to vegging normal leafs.

Don't listen to the person who suggested that they might have been autoflower seeds... Chances are you put them out too early, which causes early flowering. They will reveg in time and start to flower again when daylight hours are reduced to 13-14 per day.

I don't think they will die.my branches r full

• and the days starting to get shorter.​
  
  
  
  

there's no way these buds re going anywhere.
