Chrystal Unexpectedly Auto-Flowering?!

[Unclenugs]

ok, so a little background:

i've been running in my veg chamber

4x 4' 6500k tube flouro
5x 35w 6500k CFL
1x 35w 2700k CFL

DWC lucas formula Advanced Nutrients (grow formula)

all temps good, good ventelation, and air circulation. I pretty much know what i'm doing.

I did, however, run into a bit of an oddity. while vegging my new Chrystal strain, the clones (who have been out-growing all the other strains, grown in the exact same set-up.) have started flowering. they have never seen darkness, and the mother, grown from seed (buydutchseeds.com), has also never seen darkness.

the clones are about 2 weeks old since rooting, and neither of the two other strains I am growing are showing any signs of flowering. I can only assume that they are auto-flowering, despite not being advertised as an auto-flowering strain, and not following any usual characteristics of an auto- flowering strain (cloneable, growing vigorously and surpassing other normal strains) I am not an expert, so I turn to the community to figure out why this strain is flowering. so please, throw in your .02 and help me understand this.

a couple pics of my veg chamber, the flowering clones, and a little LST experiment i'm doing to tame a wild mother.

Is the mother showing too? They are just pre-flowers though, I get that all of the time with clones and also plants that have been vegging for over a month.

yeah, the mother just started showing too. I had that in the back of my head that they were just pre-flowers, but it just surprised me that they started showing. it just hasn't happened on any other strain i've grown so far. i'll keep an eye on them, and i'll be more concerned if they continue to produce pistils.

thanks for the re-assurance.
