Awww crud!If it’s an auto flower as I suspect it most likely is nope. You ain’t revegging that.
You can’t prevent it in a autoflower. They are on their own timeline. Photo’s are typically ran in 18hrs of light a day for their vegetative stage when grown indoors. When you are ready to induce flowering you set their light cycle to 12hrs of light and 12hrs total darkness.Awww crud!
As for avoiding the same problem in future, could you tell me the max hours of having the light off that would prevent this? I thought 12 was the limit but as I said, I never hit 12. Could it be that I was using an irregular schedule? Like maybe the plant "thought" the days were getting shorter if it got 4h of dark one day, 6 the next, 8 the next.
I know, I need to buy a timer.
But I also wanna figure out exactly what I did wrong here.
You really should get a timer. That is way to much work without a timer. They are like $8 on Amazon.Awww crud!

AutoIs this an auto or photo?
An auto will automatically flower at a predesignated time. Usually starts flowering around week 4. They aren't light hour dependent.Auto
Right, which is why it's important that they get 18 hours so they can grow some before they bud, some people even do 20 plus hours.An auto will automatically flower at a predesignated time. Usually starts flowering around week 4. They aren't light hour dependent.
Agreed. Autos need to grow fast as possible in the seedling stage. Really no room for error if you want yield.Right, which is why it's important that they get 18 hours so they can grow some before they bud, some people even do 20 plus hours.
wait TOTAL darkness? I effed that up too I bet- there is a nightlight in the vicinity. Closet next try.You need to have 18 hours of light and 6 of total darkness for a photo in veg or an auto throughout it's life. Can't be willy nilly with lights or the plants get confused. Timers are inexpensive.
Oh! That's a relief. That it's normal.An auto will automatically flower at a predesignated time. Usually starts flowering around week 4. They aren't light hour dependent.
