Week 6 veg, approaching week 7, not a single pistil anywhere on all plants. Dieselberry autos planted same time are in week 1 flower. Called crop king to see if any growers reported the same in case it was an auto/photo mix up at breeders. Nothing reported. Anyone got some input/experience with BB auto?
Bruce banner autos not flowering

Sounds like you may have a photo period at which point I'd question the validity of the strain.
Sad banks can do this to consumers.

Yeah it’s debatable at this point
I have a couple outdoor grows going from the same seed batch (same package). One I am growing in well lit place and another that has some light issues during peak daylight. If you looked at the plants, you would think they were two different strains. Both autos, one started flowering a full two weeks after the other. Right around the end week 6 IIRC was when the later ones finally started to flower. Might be worth holding out a little longer.
Oh it’s not like they’re going anywhere, just sucks that the DBs are in the back and the BBs are in the front. Gonna make it a pain to harvest

Never trust review sites about seedbanks when trying a new one. check forums. There are 4 US banks I trust. North Atlantic Seed Co, DC seed exchange, seeds here now and Neptune seedbank. If EU or Uk seedcity, the vault and weedseedsexpress are solid too.
Ain’t talking shit either, not everyone has the time, energy or patience to spend hours researching suppliers and we’ve all been conditioned to implicitly trust legitimate looking businesses

Well so far the dieselberry are as marketed, they’re doing quite nicely under 16/8 in super soil in the greenhouse, I’ll give the supposed bb autos another two weeks before I jump to conclusions. Who knows, read people saying 16 weeks start to finish on them so maybe they’re just lagging. I did top them all once so maybe I slowed them by a week or two. Find out soon enough. Can always drop the supplemental lighting for a week to see, they’ll get direct light for 7 hours and indirect for 14 with being in Ontario, might be enough of a change to initiate flower if they are photos but not likely

The odds are overwhelming that it's not an auto if it's already 6 weeks in veg with no visible pistils
Yeah.. but cut a guy some slack who was hoping for two crops in this year. I suppose the db will be one and the bb two… mission accomplished?

Overwhelming but not zero.

North Atlantic rocks, and I've heard good things about Purple City, but never used them. DARK Horse GENETICS was my go-to this spring
I planted for autos: Creme de la Creme, a Double Grape Stomper, and Jack Herer. The Creme and Double Grape Stomper are both flowering, week 2 maybe, but the Jack auto is still a growing small bush with no sign of flowering, whatsoever.
All plants were popped, sprouted and grown from seed the 16th of April.
Again, Jack Herer is a late bloomer? Don't know. But do know one thing. Eventually, that Fukkers either gonna throw some pistils, or end up in the graveyard.

I bought some "Bruce Banner Auto" seeds from expert seeds and later learned that only one breeder has true Bruce Banner and that is Darkhorse. What we have is something else, or another breeder's cross of Strawberry Diesel x OG Kush x Ruderalis. If it is indeed true that only one breeder has it, that ups the chance that your pack was mislabeled or maybe photo.

I'm having the same issue finding Massachusetts Super Skunk [F4], so far have only been able to find as a single clone for $350.
Like, seriously.
But yea, Darkhorse is the shit.

Hopefully, in the near future, widespread legalization will lead to a more organized nomenclature for strains.
I’m banking on photo at this point. The girls (hopefully girls don’t know at this point but males should be preflowering by now if they are) are growing nicely but I wanted autos to limit the size. If they are photos I’m gonna have to supercrop the shit outta them because I’m not peeling the roof off again
