Long ways to go my friend. I'm not familiar with that strain, but based off appearances, you've got months left to go.

It depends on how much light she gets & for how long. Also what are you feeding her & how much, how often? She looks good though!

She is getting about 14hours of natural sun light daily. I even give the girls a little bit of my 600 watt full spectrum on cloudy days. Are soil here is very black and Rich. I put a little blood male while they were growing in size for the one flowering I have only given her bone meal now and high calcium lime other than that I'm letting nature do its thing. I'm wondering with it being an Autoflower I'm taking it outside if I didn't bring out more of its mother strain. I've done some reading and they say that it can't happen causing an Autoflower to take longer but she is so healthy and smells so great I don't want to give her anything else if she doesn't need it

As an auto, it's genetic triggers determine when it reaches each stage. The amount of light and nutrients will affect the overall yield but not WHEN it happens.
The whole thing about the environment bringing out it's "mother strain" is ridiculous. A plants genetics are predetermined. You can stress a plant into being a hermie because they all carry that trait. You can't stress it into being a photo. It wouldn't be flowering right now if that had happened.
The reality is most autos take way longer than the breeders suggest. I just had an NL auto the breeder claimed was a 70 day strain ... it took 117 to finish. Probably could have gone longer but I needed the space.
Just be patient. Your doing everything right and she looks good and healthy. The buds will fill in over the next 2 to 3 weeks then start putting on weight as the calyxs swell for a few weeks before she finishes. When I said I'm not familiar with that strain I just meant I can't give you a more precise time frame.
Edit: I misread your post and just realized you just meant bringing it outside you may have made it veg longer. That is possible, but it looks healthy so I'd be surprised if you stressed it bad enough for that to happen. Sorry for the confusion.

Tbh if you could I'd put the 600w on her on 18/6. Also I'd buy some flowering nutes & get her a regular feeding schedule. Do that & she will explode!! Not literally of course.....in case the FBEye are reading this!!!

But then this would just be an indoor grow. The sun is more powerful than a 600w light and the days are getting longer right now (I'm assuming this person is in the western hemisphere).Tbh if you could I'd put the 600w on her on 18/6. Also I'd buy some flowering nutes & get her a regular feeding schedule. Do that & she will explode!! Not literally of course.....in case the FBEye are reading this!!!
And growing organically without buying bottled or dry nutes is a great way to grow cannabis. Not that there's anything wrong with the way your suggesting either, it's just not necessary, and doesn't answer the OPs question at all.
They asked WHEN.

It's just you.
You never HAVE to prune or defoliate (which I assume is what you meant by trimming), it's purely optional. And that plant certainly has plenty of space between nodes to allow for good air flow. And since it's flowering you don't want to start heavily defoliating at this stage anyways.

It's their first grow & its in week 9 using the sun & no nutes & you can see the results. Get that monster light on her, buy proper nutes & get her growing. Stop pissing up the wall already!!

Thank u so muchTbh if you could I'd put the 600w on her on 18/6. Also I'd buy some flowering nutes & get her a regular feeding schedule. Do that & she will explode!! Not literally of course.....in case the FBEye are reading this!!!
It's an outdoor grow with natural sunlight I only use the 600 watt full spectrum for cloudy days. She is coming in at 3 feet

So first off, your still avoiding the fact that you aren't answering ops question.
Second, I'm just tired of the my way or the highway growers, as if there aren't dozens of ways to successfully grow marijuana. OP asks when something will happen so you come in and shit on their grow and tell them you have all the answers? Bugger off.
OP hasn't been not feeding it, they've been giving blood and bone meal.
Plus what's the point of a nice greenhouse if your gonna put a lamp out there?
It may just be small cause it's an auto.
Straight up I don't think you know half what you think you do.
