It is on its way to flower ... It just sexed and is going to preflower. It will do it on its own.
Once u start trying to " force " it into doing something its already genetically set to do you will ask for trouble. Autos are unpredictable , sometimes the fathers characteristics or the mothers steps forward. You can get runty seeds or giants - even from the same strain.

Leave it as is. If you stress it , you will drop its yield ,or even stunt it .
These are plug in play. NEVER rely on what the breeder info says.

Also , part of the problem is in your description .... You stated 1 bulb @ 6400k .
That is WAY TOO LOW - you should have at least 2-3 on her.

Im just new but from what I'm reading and from some of what your saying I feel like its the opposite, because autos are so tricky and still have at best shaky genes sometimes you have to force them to do things like bud for instance or in some cases they may veg extremely long and what is the point of an autoflower if it dosn't veg faster lol?

You end up with a plant sitting there taking up nutes and power cause it don't know what the fuck to do its so cross bread

I'm confused now. I really cant wait for it to flower for so long or im risking all my hard work and the money i spent. I dont care if i got a good yield or few grams as long as im going to taste it. All my fear coming from the idea that im not going to be able to harvest any thing before i travel

I say force them into flower then , yes it maybe slow growth the object is no stress that much we know but in your case with pressed time and like you said ya want some bud before you go then don't wait force it into flower.in my opinion

Well I don't have much knowledge on autos but it seems pointless to grow an auto for almost three months that makes no sense and to me defeats the purpose of a small fast growing plant.. you might as well be growing normal plants if its taking 81

And even furthermore unless you do something they definitely are not going to be done by your predicted date so ya man for sure induce budding or like I said before grow normal plants and get twice as much of better dank ,autos are smaller and faster, and you get less for those reasons.Remember its the speedy growth that makes them so appealing so help it

When i bought it i thought (flowering35-45) mean it takes only 35 days to flower
I had no idea that it means how long the flowring last :( otherwise i would never buy an auto

All seeds are unpredictable .... You wont know what its REALLY gonna do until you grow them .... You get runts , you get mutations , sometimes you get junk. Hapoens whether its Auto or regular. The addition of Ruderalis adds to the gamble.

Look for the best breeders you can find - most growers will post good breeders and those that make shit seeds .
