Planted last month now clones are flowering NORCAL

So i planted a clone in mid march and it's been about 4 weeks and the shit started flowering! The flower schedule shouldn't hit until august. When I planted the sun was rising and setting from 7:30am to 7:30pm which is 12 hours. Now it's 6:30am to 7:40pm. Would I be okay to throw a new clone out now since it's 13 hours of sunlight a day? I thought it would be okay to plant in northern Cali around mid march??

Plant clone outside end of May if you don't have extra light on theme

Way to early without some light assist to keep them from flowering right now.

Hello,
is this clone reacting differently (to light and its cycles) than the motherplant? Is this an automatic strain or does the mother have ruderalis-genetics? If not just give it an extra light during the night. For re-vegging flood it light for 24h each day until it discards the flowers. After that a single hour of extra light in the night will prevent it from flowering.

As others have said you put them out too early.

Mid may at the earliest for clones in norcal..late may to be safe

You could start some seeds now

Lol, lots of experts in front of me said the same as I was gonna (serious) - you just put her out a bit early - shit, throw a couple more out & enjoy the diversity of harvest.

End of may is fine for clones . Plenty of time to get some serious monsters if you have everything dialed good soil etc etc.....I don't even start popping my beans until the end of April ......I'm in NorCal and I still have my soil cooking for this year .....end of this month il start popping seeds and be ready for transplant by end of may early June ......that's doing everything outdoors with no artificial light.....you were just to early for not having any supplemented light ...GL

Clones are already mature plants. That's why they started to flower. Like people said plant clones in may unless you have extra light to extend light cycle to 14 hrs.

Click on a town near you. Check when the days are 14 hours long. Plant more clones then. With seeds you have about 4 weeks of grace period until they are sexually mature. Your clones are already mature, thus the early flower.

Just look at this as a learning experience. Good luck.
