Clones going from 24h to 18/6 trying to flower?

I hope someone has some advice here, this is my first time cloning and I could use some help from someone with more experience...

I took 2 cuttings from my best plant about 3-4 weeks ago. They were rooted under weak flourescent light, 24 hours on. Once they got rooted, I moved them to 18/6 with a 150W CFL. They have been there for about 2 weeks and I swear it looks like they are trying to flower. I want them much bigger before this happens! Will they go back to veg, or did the switch from 24 to 18 hours of light trigger flowering??

Please help with this if you know! If these 2 clones don't make it then that is the end of this strain!:cry:

I'd go back to 24/7........I did the 18/6 thing and got the same thing...
 
Shit, I can't really do that. Other clones are there going great at 18/6 so I can't switch it now. I'm hoping they will pull out of it and I'm sure stress will result. If not, I'm going to end up with a single nug on one clone.
 
Is there a way to use nutes to snap them back to veg? Something similar to hitting them hard with phosphorus to trigger flowering but triggers veg instead perhaps?

I'm shooting for getting them outdoors around July 1st, giving them a couple of months of veg growth outdoors before flowering and hopefully get massive...

I attached a pic of the momma that they came from, flowering nicely now at day 28. The top is getting nice and gooey too, please help me save these babys if you can!

Me Personnaly Id Go Back To 24 Going Back To 24 Really Want Have Any Bad Symtoms Or Affects To The Ones That Are Doing Good In The 18/6 plus the more light the plants get the faster they grow and stronger they get cause they get more time of light to photosynthesis I Leave Mine On 24 man
 
Thanks kush, I appreciate your advice. The master plan is to move things outdoors around the first of July. I'm thinking if I go from 24h to outdoor at 16-17h then they will immediately flower. If I can get them outside in veg being used to a somewhat normal light/dark cycle then they should follow the seasons and finish off in the fall with MASSIVE colas! Actually over the last couple of days, they seem to be producing more leaf and less hairs so they MAY be re-vegging on their own.

I'll see how they look in a couple more days and post some pics...
