Can a few rainy days in a row induce flower?

I'm growing a couple plants in my usual place of grow as i normally do in this time of year, everything I have done has been to a T of my last grows.

Now normally with where I place my plants the flowering starts occurring around the last week of august, but I have pistils starting to show now first week of august.
We've had 4 back to back rain days with minimal sun so I was wondering if this would induce the plant into flower?

I'm debating now to switch my veg nutes to my bloom nutes now because of it but I don't want it to bloom yet for I still need to do a little chop for all of the suckers on my girls.

I feel as if I should wait and see if more show up on other branches before switching and chopping to see where it's at.

* Also plants are in ground not potted so moving them isn't an option *

Combine both veg and bloom during initial three to four weeks of flower
I always do
Let it bloom if you get an early bloomer you will actually be able to finish in 9 or 10 weeks

Are they from seed or the same cuts you usually run?

Short answer is no rainy days don’t affect pfr the hormone that induces flowering .
But the moon cycles do affect it a lot.
I am seeing earlier flowers this year than last for sure. But it is 100% strain dependent.

You likely just found and early finisher, I doubt it was dark enough even with the rain to trigger flowering. I had a couple recently on an inside run start flowering under 16 hours of light. I had some stoned idea to help lower temps right before flower to drop to 16 hours. And 2 out of 48 started flowering under 16 hours. I am saving a mom of one to try outside next year, my stoned theory is that it will finish earlier as long as I get it big before putting it out.
