Signs for flowering(autos)

[Stoneybaloney5]

I have 5 2 vast 2 fast autos going outside. There 24 days from sprout and im wondering how you tell when their going into flower. Also is there anything else i should do differently besides change the nutrient as they go into flower. Thanks

I believe after pre-flowers show up, 3 weeks in or so.

Waiting for a better answer.

preflowers are a calyx and pistils. Or hairs as them street punks call em.lol. youll know when they start because theyll stretch a bunch in like the first 2 wks of flowering...what nutrients are you using.im sure theres a feed schedule somewhere online.

also, some of those pics look like heat stress, with the cupping leaves and twisting new growth.

Your preflowers will show on its own, no need to flip cycle. Autos are genetically set to grow bloom die in a shorter time. No need to "Make flower " .

I keep feeding veg ( during this week of preflower ) , do flush before new week ( then switch to bloom ) nutes.

Ive been giving protekt but it has been in the high 80s low 90s for about a week. Some of the twisted growth is from the plant outgrowing the chicken wire and chillin bent for like a day. I was wondering and had mild concern over the cupping. Should i adjust something, put white card board around my black geo pots perhaps or..?? Thanks guys keep it comin

The sun can beat up your plants , DYNAGRO PROTEKT can be foliar sprayed at dusk and early morning , which ever is doable. I do twice a week for plant support during high heat. The stem and branches get noticeably thicker and rigid. But this stuff throws PH way off , you MUST bring PH into check after adding to water. It must be thoroughly mixed in first , if adding anything else to the water. It is extremely concentrated and suggest HALF of listed amount.
