It should be due to start flipping soon. Keep an eye out. Mine usually starts between 3 to 4 weeks. But with autos they flip when they want.

Once the pistols start showing you'll know.

Yeah ik they have a mind of they own that’s why I was curious. Low key thought those leaves were pistils lol. When do you usually start feeding your plants nutrients. I have mine potted in happy frog soil. I also have Gaia green nutrients and the flora line by general hydroponic

I'm not really using nutes. I always ended up with problems so I'm now trying living soil. So far, so good.

It will be like 2 white hairs.

I didn’t feed until flower. I don’t run autos anymore but I started feeding week 1 of flower working my way from 1/4 to 1/2 strength nutes. Autos are easy to overfeed so go slow.

What genetics does your plant have and which breeder? If you know,In my opinion, there is no fixed standard for autoflowers regarding the light cycle; it depends much more on the genetics and life cycle. For example, if it's 7-1 weeks from germination to harvest, I would go for 18/5 to give the roots enough time to spread, and anything above that would be 20/4, as that gives enough time and allows for greater growth.

It usually is 18-6 and your example to me makes no sense?

I’m a bit lost on that example too. It’s normally 18/6 til the day of reckoning.
