I have a white widow auto flower that went into flower at 80 days. I've also had my last autos take 120 days from seeds to finish. Flowering at around week 7. honestly you should be happy, extra veg time, means bigger plant.

Crazy! It's too long. My previous grows were about ~75 days from seed to harvest. Your answer could change my decision
Can I make sure that I actually have autos? (as I sad before I've start thinking plants are regular due to the long veg)
If they are autos it's not necessary to switch 12/12. In this case 12/12 would affect yield or extend cycle

has it shown sex yet ? I'm thinking you could try a 24hr dark period and then introduce light. Some seeds do miss out on the automatic gene and are photoperiod, some just take a while. stress is a big thing, the more the stress the longer it's going to veg given it doesn't die. I accidentally snapped the central top while LSTing and that pushed things back 3 weeks. Eventually she flowered after some time to recoup. Currently have 30 tops on her, completely filling a 2x3 space wall to wall

No offense intended but... Throw it away and never buy auto flower again. Auto growers are unknowingly colluding with the DEA to ruin cannabis genetics. Get regular photo plants seeds make your own seeds. Just say no to autoflower!

it would make more sense to say that trash breeders are ruining cannabis culture & genetics . Ive only been around for a few years, so I don't know what the quality and smoke was like before, but from what I see a lot of the guys here are still growing some serious dank so I wouldn't worry about genetics. Autoflowers are versatile, the market sees them as a quick way to market "crazy" strains for the new grower to the advanced alike. Remember, you're in a cannabis boom, a bunch of younger kids doing this now, and knowledge is on here and accessible. It's a fad, a quick way to make some money crossing some stable genetics with a ruderalis. There are a couple breeders making some autos that would would compare to some photoperiods. Autos are not better nor are photos better nor can you compare. Advantages of auto ? Can be grown in veg rooms to increase yearly harvest, faster harvest time. For those in prohibition country, autos are great for stealth. Sorry for jacking the thread. Lets keep the comments focused on helping him rather than making him contemplate his grow.

Of course that is one of the reason I've started with autos. Quality is MUCH better than buying pressed garbage for 20$ per gram. And it's quicker less time to live with paranoia. I've heard opinion about autos - of course regular is a gold standard. Maybe next time when I buy my own apartments ))) F**cken totalitarian mother russia

As I understand - yes. It's female. I'll post a detailed photos later.
Hm 24 dark period - friend of mine told me the same. I tend to switch 12/12 and see reaction. I think it should do the same or u think 24 dark is better?

my man. Honestly think she'll flower after darkness without inducing 12/12. give her a week I'm sure it'll flower. Node spacing looks like she's going into it.
