Help with Plant started indoors then put outside

Ok, so here is the deal. i can get some pic's if needed so people can understand what i am asking.

Alright, so i started my seedlings indoors, i am growing what is referred to by my friend as Daddy Haze. The problem i am having is that after i sexed them early indoors on 12/12 for about 8 days they showed female,then they were put on 5 days on 24 hrs light. After this they were put outside, where they have been for the past 2 weeks. They are growing absolutely beautiful, but here comes the complications.

Since they have been early sexed inside, i do not think they had enough time to Revert back to vegetative. the days are getting nothing but longer, (they were also over 15 hrs of light when put outside and there has been nothing but sun)

My question really is, "Is it normal for the plants to still be popping Calyx's out everywhere? they are growing aprox. 1 to 2 inches a day, no buds anywhere in site, just White hairs all over. did i mess this whole thing up, or can i just keep them outside and let them continue on?

thank you all for your time, i searched the forums and couldn't find anything that quite fit this problem i am having

First off add pictures. Second you change the light cycles to much. You are putting stress on the plant when you change the light cycles like that. If I were you before I was going to change the light cycle I would give them 24 to 48 hours of straight darkness and then introduce them to the light cycle you want them to grow with gradually.

well let me go grab my camera, they were babies when i early sexed them and i was planning on keeping them inside, but problems arose, so now they are outside, hence the 24 hrs of Veg i kept them on thinking they would stay on that.

i only put them outside as a last ditch effort to keep them, i just dont know if it is normal for them to have all these calyx's in the middle of June.

Yeah, it sounds a little like you've stressed your plants out a bit - and that's not good. Though I'm sure you can rebound, you need to remember what plants actually do when they're outdoors:

*They get light sometimes, but not all the time. You need to have periods of darkness too.
*They get nutrients regularly from the soil, assuming that the soil is fertilized or not barren of nutes. I've heard there are some nutrients that work for outdoor grows, like Heavy Harvest. But I haven't used it. It's just the only one I've heard of on the boards.
*They are sheltered from too much exposure. Plants tend to grow in favorable conditions. If you have too much sun, wind, or rain, you're going to have troubles.

Like the other guy said, I think pics are in order and I think you need to be more gradual about a huge transition from indoors to outdoors.

:peace:
