It's a 4x4 tent. 3 gallon air pots. The photo period is almost 2 feet tall, been tying down doing LST, so it's a lot shorter than it would've been... have 3 other seedlings of auto's, I'd put them somwhere else if I switched to 12/12. I've heard of ppl doing that and forcing an auto into flower cuz it wasn't flipping.
Oh and they're on 18/6 light schedule now.
you now have a photoperiod plant
Lol beat my by 2 secondsYeah I had the same issue, here she is after a 4 month veg
If you want to force her into flower just flip to 12/12 light schedule she may have
Candy kush auto
The other 6 all autoflowered over the past few runs but this one hung out in the 18/6 light until they finished, then I moved her to her own tent and scrogged her and flipped to 12/12 lol here she is about a month and a half into flower now
Great to see someone who has done it ! Solid info !Yeah I had the same issue, here she is after a 4 month veg

Midnight shift keeps ya quick on your toes haha
Hey Good looking out, that really helped. Nice to hear that that will work if I need. Think I'll wait another week, if still no pre flowers or anything, I'll just flip to 12/12. That's actually better cuz I can flower my photoperiod albarino too.Yeah I had the same issue, here she is after a 4 month veg

Some take a longggg time to flower but after 25 autos so far personally, none have started to flower after 35 days, most pre-flowered between 25-30 days
Yep yep, mine literally went 4 months before I force flipped to flower, just be careful, since she was an auto I never up-potted her and my busy ass forgot to up pot her before I put her in the scrog lol, so she’s in 5.5 month old soil so I’m just babying her along now haha
So I'm just curious, did u notice any real difference in the yeild or anything from the auto only getting 12 hours of light a day? She Was looking pretty good in Pic. I've read that it can greatly reduce your yeild, but i have never really known how drastic, or insignificantit that might be.Yep yep, mine literally went 4 months before I force flipped to flower, just be careful, since she was an auto I never up-potted her and my busy ass forgot to up pot her before I put her in the scrog lol, so she’s in 5.5 month old soil so I’m just babying her along now haha
Luckily I direct planted them into 5 gallon fabric pots but…
For reference here was a candy kush auto just before harvest in the same size pot (5 gallon fabric pot) , same pack of seeds the non auto plant, difference is those plants finished in 85-90 days from seed, the current plant in the 4x4 so far has had 4 months of veg and and another 6 weeks of flower so far, plant is about 4x the size of the auto though, we’ll see how yeild is effected at the end of this run, buds are just starting to fatten up now
I just finished 2 auto's I had to flip to 12/12 to get flowering. I had 3 reg auto seeds grew them out and the male showed at 3 - 4 weeks on 18hrs light. after almost 2 months on 18hrs I said screw it and flipped them to 12/12 and they grew out great, maybe smaller buds than on 18hrs but more like photo buds.
Yeah I'm over autos...I mean just think how much They suck... suck to feed suck to train, really suck to top, smaller yeild, some ppl even say they notice the difference from smoking an auto to a photo.... oh and can't clone...... the list goes on lol..... I guess being my first plant to flower, and how suddenly one day they just popping pistils... lol.
I’ve had both good and bad results it all depends who the genetics are coming from
