Help! Plants are starting to flower during Veg...

Hey, I'm looking for some answers on whats going on with my plants. I have 5 white-widow plants vegging under 14 6500k 23watt CFL's on 18-6 light. I'm guessing im about 75 days into Veg and they are looking great, about 12-16 inches tall, bushy as hell, and a node every 1/2 inch, but my star plant started showing signs of sexing 5 days ago and my fears came true - she was a he...fuck! Now the rest, which were about a week behind are now showing signs of sex, although too early to tell on the 4 remaining. I am wondering if theres anything to do because I wanted to Veg as long as possible to increase my yield, I'm doing a very tight closet grow in a 1 bed apt....Is this just nature taking its course and I should get them into Flowering or can I put them into 24-0 or what??? Any info will help as long as you know what youre talking about, thanks

damn 75 days of veg and only 14-16 inches tall????? it's pre flowering cuz it's time to flower

I'm at work right now so I don't have any pics, I have pics of them under my albums but their really young. They are prolly more like 16-20 inches but they are BUSHY and FULL of nodes. I would say they are wider than they are tall and I love it cause I only have a small closet and I hate those lanky lookin things people post on here...I think i have one somewhat recent pic ill post in a min... So is it still too late to clone, i have one clone from each that are rooting as we speak , i was going to use them to determine sex, but they are doing that themselves...

I would leave at 18/6, the preflowers are a sign of maturity. You can still veg if you want. You said nice tight nodes, How many? Is height an issue? Remember they will be 2-3 times taller when done..

agree... but also it could b good 4 u as u said u found a male... so @least u know and yank em and not waste time to make cuttings from the males.

idk, a lot of nodes, for a first grow i am very happy with the quality, heighth wont be an issue for flowering cause i have a storage closet on my balcony that prolly 6ft. by 6 ft. and 9 ft. tall, but Im in CO. and I was waiting till it got warmer out before I stuck them out there cause its still getting into the 40's and 50's at night...

here's a more recent pic, this is prolly a month ago, they are about 10-12 inches taller and still have the bushiness of these pics...

whats going to happen if i leave them vegging, will they flower shitty or what?

no nothing will happen, its just pre flowers, there mature enough o flower but dont have to, my cuttings had preflowers on em, and still to this day they have preflowers its nothing to worry about

I'm still not sure if their if the 4 remaining are male or female, so will these pre-flowers tell me the sex too, like the first plant that I had to cut down? is this an easy way to sex?

heres another old pic, their about twice as high and bushy...

those look like indicas

is white widow an indica? they better fuckin be, i got them from Marijuana Seeds (cannabis Seeds) High Quality Low Prices....

yes
and once u r sure u hv fems u lose the males and only make clones thus always hving only fems

ya, i got that, my concern is with the pre-flowering, if i keep them vegging while they are pre-flowering will the females just pre-flower or will they start to bud or is pre-flowering and budding the same thing?

here's some updated photos of the ladies...
