Starting seeds indoors to move outside for more veg and flowering. - New Growers - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

It's my 3rd year growing outdoors in fabric pots in rural SoCal. This year I started my seeds some reg some fem in Solo cups under (4) 6500 t12s and set the timer for 18 hours on at 6 a.m. and off at midnight. Now they are about 3 weeks old and showing first true leaf set.
I want to transplant them soon to final pots outdoors around the beginning of may but outdoor daylight here in SoCal is about 12.5 hours per day now and will be about 14.5 hours per day at the solstice.
If I stop giving them the t12 light now and they stay in a greenhouse for the next month or move outside, what will happen?
Will they start to flower and then stunt and reveg?
Is it too late, should I start over fresh?
Thank you for your input.

I'd keep them under the t12s until the daylight hours have increased just to be safe. Good luck
