been doing this for 10 years at this point. not trying to start a fight but thats BS. if something auto flowers like that stuff did its the genetics not me. these people that have the problems are right! she had some problems, and it DEF wasnt root bound. it was in a 7 gal bucket and was only 18 inches tall. when i culled it i checked out the root base and it was decent, nothing that crazy. i wouldnt go off calling this many people out when you really dont have any idea what peoples situations are. do you work for serious seeds or something that you need feel threatened by people sayin there gear was problematic? i understand coming and saying your point but you kinda came off as an ass in that post bro. just my thoughts though...
If you feel I called you or others out and questioned your growing skills and experience, I apologize. I did put a blanket statement out there, but it likely covers everyone's issues regarding autoflowering.
What size pot it was in when you started to see it start autoflowering is irrelevant. The whole plant's life is in question here.
If it was sitting in a 1 gal container for 3 weeks coming from a 3x3x3 or 5x5x5 and the roots were spinning out its probably going to start autoflowering, whether its showing sex parts or not at that point. Once you get to this point you're setting yourself up for it to start autoflowering again as soon as the roots start to spin out again. So you up pot to 3 gal and only let it stay in that for 2 weeks before putting it in 7 gals. As soon as it hits the bottom of that pot and starts to spin out again it will try to start autoflowering again.
This might explain what happened in your situation, might not. My main point above was that if you take the proper precautions you shouldn't have it autoflowering on you like that. Sure there are some plants that are more or less sensitive to this issue and you may have been unlucky to get one that is super sensitive.
I'm sorry I came off as an ass, its because I am an ass.
