1st, up above...you mentioned maybe you flowered too early.ennttt, wrong answer, no such thing as to early to 12/12...In equatorial regions, if you grow outside, your photoperiods go from 13/11-11/13. Some growers never veg there clones, especially if they have height limitations.

I think it is a better to veg to build a strong root system.
I'll let you know as I am in the middle of a 2 week root-clones...1 week 15/9 veg and start week 3f at 12/12.
Height is almost 2 feet...starting wk6f

keep babying them...you will still get some good smoke.
anytime you stress them like you did you will lose delay finish and lose some yield...don't worry though, the worst is over. Just take care of them from here on out. lw
