Are there any tricks to help my plant pick up on the flowering, I might have caused this problem from moving a few during July but I had no choice. They get ALOT more light now and I think it screwed me, I dont think I will have enough time to finish, what should I do, is there anything I can do.

oh theyve been planted since early april, but around mid july I had to move them to a more well lit area for security reasons. Its probably grown an extra 4 feet since then, but im just worried that it wont have enough time to completely finish before the first frost. I didnt know If I could cover them up somehow, to induce a 12/12 time sequence so they would go ahead and start budding. The sun doesnt start giving this ratio until late september and the first frost last year was Nov 8th so I was just worried I might not get finished in time.

Just use black plastic for 12/12. Depending on plant size you might have to build some sort of support structure so the plastic doesn't mash the plant. Usually if you just put a tall stick in the center and through the plastic over the top works.

Think positive . . . maybe there'll be an extended Indian Summer where you are?
I've dug out reasonably sized flowering plants and moved them inside to finish. It works well and isn't all that much work.
These days, I always plant in planters, indoor or out . . . for the same reason. I found my first pistils on my outside twins this morning, at 13:40 of daylight.
