This is suppose to be a auto from Steve’s seed bank and I am in week 8 is it possible this is not an auto? I have a bigger tent on the way didn’t expect plant to get this large. I am using a mars hydro 600ts led. It shows pre flower but not budding! should I switch light schedule?E5EC29E0-B2EC-407A-A162-48BC61777600.jpeg5C4EF0F8-BF4A-43F8-B7A0-1751233A901F.jpegC5BD9074-F323-4D15-8221-7E764BB2B88B.jpeg3D65BB0C-F056-4B3E-8B27-890B912C80CB.jpeg964A4F6E-003C-4337-A275-0389F61B4EA3.jpeg

You are aware that plant will at minimum almost double in height? And yeah 8 weeks and no flowers means that seed is not auto flowering. Put that thing outdoors and have a 12 footer haha

Actually you ran her to a respectable 8 week VEG , now it will move to transition/ stretch phase for about another 10 days or so ...
THEN you will be officially “ flowering “ after that stage . That’s when you count.

Nice plant.
Have you any more lights that you can put in the tent?
That monster is gonna need a lot more than 100 watts to reach its full potential.
For example, If you get a gram per watt and you use 100 watts then that's 100 grams or 3.5 ounces.
More watts, more buds, win win!
The TS 600 only covers 18" x 18" - 2.25 sq ft in bloom. You have 16 sq ft.
Shes looking a bit lighter green at the top of the plant, what are you feeding her with?
Good luck

Would you suggest bulbs or something from local hardware store I was eyeballing a mars hydro ts1000 I can have here by Tuesday? I have been using the fox farm nutes top on the plant is light burnt some I had a 2x2x4 tent and plant was touching the light by time new tent showed up.

I’m open to suggestions on different lights to this is my first grow can use all the help I can get. I didn’t know if I should get another mars hydro and run the ts600 and a ts1000 had good luck so far with this brand or if I should go to the hardware store and buy a t5 setup with full spectrum bulbs or the screw in base bulbs?

Dont be buying T5s You really need the mars hydro t's 3000 to cover your 4 x 4 properly.
But if you are on a budget the 1000 would do the job along side the ts600 for that plant.
For lighting a 4 x 4 with these types of led you need 30- 40 watts per sq ft x 16 = 480 watts - 640 watts.
Touching the light is too close lol
Here's the ballpark hanging height for the ts600
