autoflowers

I'm hoping someone can help me figure out if I did something wrong with one of my Gelato Autoflowers. The first three plants did perfectly fine, my fourth one decided to not really bud out but instead filled itself with seeds, the 5th is only a couple weeks old. I did nothing different than what I did with the others except about 2 weeks ago took it outside. Normally I do them all inside so I'm just wondering if I did something wrong for it to seed out. I just pulled it out of the dirt about 2 weeks shy of when it should have been harvest time because I didn't want it to get to the 5th plant. SO can anyone confirm it was just my fault or if it was something that this one plant decided to do on it's own? How can I prevent this in the future because I'm new to growing and have only been at it for a little over a year and only do Autoflowers.  Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me.

    • you prolly did nothing wrong, just either your plant hermied and pollinated itself either it's been pollinated outside from another males cannabis plant in the neighborhood

      • autoflowers come in males. but I am curious how it all went to seed? having recently and purposely made some seeds, pollen gets in everything and it's possible that your girl was hit out side with a good gust of pollen contaminated air? anyone nearby stick a boy outside recently? maybe at the same time you took the girl outside? 

        hermied plants get a lot of seeds too but you see the left over nanners so you are pretty certain when you see it. 

        It's not you, if all of the others are fine.

        • I agree with the guys above.  Most likely you did nothing wrong, autoflowers can have genetic mutations that cause strange problems or it might have been pollinated by a gust. If you grew the first few successfully it probably had an issue outside of your control. Welcome to the portal!

          • thanks for the info guys. I do know that there are no other plants in my area that are outside because of where I live so it must have been one that hermied or pollenated itself. I've heard of a plant pollenating itself but have not heard of them doing the other to make them produce seeds. I will have to continue growing inside and hope I can somehow catch the next one early so it doesn't wreck the others. I've been here before with lighting questions and always love the input from everyone with more skills than I have. Again thanks for your help.
