I started some squash plants indoors, and they are already flowering, Why? Does temperature affect it?

Why: because the know the end is near.

Perhaps high level of potassium or the seeds you have saved are a new cultivar.
Can you send me some of those seeds or descendants of them. Maybe a specific soil microbe/stressor
