Default Fermentation help

Hi everyone

I need some assistance. I live in Calgary, Alberta.
I have noticed that the fermentation process in very quick. In a 6-week kit,
the instructions you should reach Stage #2 in 10 days. In 7 days ALL
fermentation has stopped and the specific gravity is already at 0.990 which
would be well into Stage 3 (Day 24 in the instructions)

What am I doing wrong?
Should I go ahead with stage 3 anyway even if it it only has been 7 days?

Thanks all!!

François
