Run her 12/12 now or wait for longer days and move her outside?

I've got this lady I started towards last fall. She's suffered in her life, had a light dropped on her, some heavy handed cropping and finally had a power outage for more than 24 hours back in February which caused her to show her sex.. She's been transplanted 3 times and is currently in a 5 gallon smart pot. Soil is FFOF with perlite added. Currently all she is receiving for nutrients is dry Dr. Earth Veg and flower girl along with Epson Salts.. She smells of a sweet lemon but overall smell is very mild currently. I've done hardly any pruning with her other than removing lower leaves as they die off. She's under a pair of 3000k HLG 260's dimmed all the way down. Tent temps are high 70s to low 80's. Exhausting into the room the tent is in leaving the door open.. Still don't know if I'll flip her to 12/12 indoors or wait for the days to get longer and warmer move her outside. I'm concerned since she's got so many flowers and is somewhat sticky that she will either be pollenated or a magnet for bugs. Either way she's been good winter company.

Flower it.

looks like it started. trim off those leaves broo

Plant is still on a 18/6 schedule.

Go 12/12

You sure it’s not an auto? It looks to be starting flower already.

That's what I'm afraid if I flower it inside.

Then I need to be schooled some more. Why are there so many pistils? Looks to be way more than preflower signs.

Every plant I've grown has had a different story. The pre flowers are a result of a power outage.. After the lights came back on she showed me she was the lady you see today. Fingers crossed I didn't screw her up by not flipping to 12/12 at that point.

Understandable, as every one I’ve grown has had a different story as well. Wasn’t aware that you had a power outage that triggered flowering.

What I saw resembled an auto flower starting to flower, on your 18/6 schedule. Which is why I asked if it was an auto. In that case, I probably would have flipped it after the outage. But who knows, might end up being a killer plant.

No the power outage wouldn't do that... that plant is like 2 weeks into flower....
And your power outage was in February, by now that plant should have reverted fully back to veg if she is truly on 18 hours of light.

I'm not sure what to tell you, looks like an auto to me.

Definitely looks like a reveg to me with all those triple and single finger leaves.

Whenever the outage was doesn't really matter, but the lights were out for nearly 30 hours. Not long afterwards she showed pre flowers. The plant is a photo period seed or least the plant which the seed came from was. The lights are still on a 18/6 schedule which I've triple checked. Goes to show you never know what you are going to end up with when you crack a seed.

Plenty of 5 finger fans in there as well.

Its a reveg, let it grow out. It may look like a bad haircut now but it will still flower again. Some growers reveg on purpose.

So you say this because of the dark period it experienced? Other than the power outage its been on 18/6 since it popped from a seed.

All those single leaves at the top are typical of a revegging plant. Whether 30 hours dark flipped it, probably. I’ve had a couple, they still flower and stretch later. Flip it when you want.

How tall do you think she'll get? I've got 6 1/2 feet and my lights are as high as they can go already? I've got another foot I can add but getting it on the tent will be a nightmare!
