Bath them max red while you're experimenting. A long time ago "they" did a study, 24 on, played with spectrum and went to high red to induce flower. Don't know the outcome. The whole grow was 24 on.

@Grannygrows seal up that flower chamber, no more light leaks, leave it alone in the dark for 12hrs and don't poke your head in every night disturbing it!! 12/12 is flower mode.
Never in my life have watched a plant just decide to reveg......ever. Its a human error thats happening!!

It’s growing pains! She’ll learn! That thing flowered as soon as it came of age! And when she got the new light, it’s been revenging ever since! As Curley would say! She’s a victim of circumstance!

Long time ago. You'd have to do a bunch of keyword searching to track it down. It might have been some Ed Rosenthal experiment.

Figolus actually grows that way! His plants never see a minute of 18 six!

Well, photos aren’t supposed to flower under 18 six! So if you keep it under 18 six it’s just going to continue to reveg. If you want flour sooner or later, you have to put it under 1212! If you want veg, you’ll leave it under 18 six! Getting a plant to completely re-veg can be a very time-consuming process! That’s why you don’t see it done very often intentionally! Unless there are some specific reason for it! But no 1212, no flower! Hope Sparky pans out for you!

That not true! This plant was flowering in 18/6. When I flipped to 12/12 the flowers died

18 six under that weak old light wasn’t enough to keep it from going into flower when it got old enough to make a decision! Then things snowballed from there! But that’s all Water under the bridge now! Just don’t give up and do a little research on photoperiods. Hell it’s only your first grow! And figure out what you’re gonna do with this one!

That’s because the plant was in veg and the flowers were dying! A re-vegging plant has to do something with the flowers that are already there! Good luck, sister! Keep plugging away!

I am so happy I took notes on everything I did with this grow!
Scratching my head on why Mica went from flowering to veg.
It just so happens that the day I flipped Mica(that was in flower mode) I also sprayed it with turmeric to ward off pests. And here is when I knew I flucked up! After looking up every detail of what might have happened with Mica, from lighting, hours, light leaks, nutrients, water, ph’s of everything,
The results are in.
When a plant is in flower mode, you CAN NOT spray the buds/flowers!
as Mica was bag seed, I did not know 100% what strain. Very possibly a Kush.
So lesson learned and I’m just getting smarter. At least I’m not out any $.lol

I really want to thank everyone of you for helping me use deductive reasoning.
I can’t wait to see where I am as a grower in a year! Will update with the crucifixion of sparky the auto flower Saturday!
MY FIRST HARVEST & DRY

Here we are! Harvest day went great!
Sparky the auto flower has been bud plucked…..kinda!lol
I cut branches off the main trunk, tied them to the coat hanger, and then trimmed. The lower buds are drying in a cardboard box. Took me 1.5 hours to trim. Might try my hand at making gummies with my trimmings. Already chopped it up, grind it, baked it and stored.
Humidity in closet is 45-55 and temp has been steady 65 for over a week. Humidifier and fans have aided me in this endeavor.
What a great way to celebrate 420!

Now on to Mica. Not even sure if she is an auto or photo considering she flowered on a 18/six schedule. The seed was found in a bag of weed.
It’s not looking good! At 3pm I will update with pics but I threw her in darkness for 24 hours as suggested and the stretch was crazy! Almost touching the light now. I defoliated for better air flow and plan on watering/flower nutrients when she goes in darkness tomorrow for 6 hours. Broke down and bought a timer also as suggested.
Found a light leak in my homemade grow tent and patched it.
Gonna need some more advice on Mica after I post pics so you all be ready. It was suggested for me to just throw it away but I just can’t do that to her.
