change the light span back to 16 hours or more..your plant could become a hermie messing about with the light cycle tho

light hours outdoors at the moment is like 13/12 but the days are getting longer...
if i were to just throww the plant outdoors would it get used to it and start vegging again? then start flowering when the days get shorter? man i need some help i thought id have more than 1 reply after 1 day!

I would go back to a 24/0 LIGHT SCHEDULE AND FEED IT veg nutes. People do it all the time to sex plants. It should be ok, hermies can happen. But also anytime.

I dont know about out doors, but it sounds like with 13 hours it will just keeo flowering.

Light of 13/12 per day, even increasing, will not revert it back to vegetative stage. If you want to revert back to veg, do like stu1974 says and put it under 16+ hours of light. Also, increase the amount of nitrogen in comparison to potassium and phosphorous so that the plant can be told it needs to veg and not flower.

You've confused your plant and it needs to reset its cycle. I take clones during flowering sometimes and they can take up to 4 to 6 weeks to get back into a full veg state. Too much stress probably won't be good for the plant and may hermie, although I don't believe that it is as easy as people think to create a hermie.

i agree with Knally i've cloned off flowering plants with no problems, as stated it does take 4weeksish to revert. so i think you'd be fine, just flip the light back to 18hrs, or do it slowly with the timer give it an extra hour each day, that might easy the stress (just guessing)
