Poor mans grow..is it mold??

Hey guys/gals i have read through a few posts and looked around the web but cant find no answers..

Ok so here is my story leading up to the question..

I had a bag full of seeds that i collected from back in the 90's and recently got my card...so i decided to plant some of them so i took 24 seeds sprouted them and then took a cutting and forced it to show its sex my changing the light as i read and to my suprise they were all females... so i grew them in the basement under a 600w hps and digital ballast... then after they started flowering i cut all the center stems out and left the little scraggly vine looking braches at the bottom with tiny flowers on them that werent worth cutting... then i switched back to 24 hr lighting for 3weeks then i changed soil and cut the bottom out of the grow bag and then stck them in the ground outside (Still in the bag)
They are almost done and when u look at them they look like they have crystals on them but when i took this picture it looks like white dots

What your seeing are trichomes, not mold. However that plant isnt anywhere close to being done, you still have like 4-5 weeks by the looks of things.

There are 6 plants in the green house about 7 foot tall .. and the first one i cut all the big leaves off it as an experiment to see if it helps.. those plants have been outside since the end of april.. i have been fighting mites.. nothing gets rid of them.... lol...not that i have found anyway... and now that they. Are flowering i dont want to use any pesticides on it... so im hoping they make it... they are almost completely free of additives ... other than what ever was in the happyfrog soil i put them in the ground with... thanks for your input

All of them... how tall do they normally get after they start to flower

Keep doing what your doing, they are looking good. Just be patient, take the time to make sure that they are done before chopping them down.

The stretch should be pretty much done and they might put on another inch or two, but that should be it...I also concur that your baby's will still need ~ 5 or 6 weeks to finish.
