Hey guys!
i have 1Bluecheese auto and 2 LSD auto.
My blue cheese is in a really small pot, and my lsd is in 27L pots. I know wayyyyy too big but it is what it is. It’s almost day 60 from I potted them in soil after germination. My blue is in flower for long time ago and got loads of buds but my lsd got none! 1 plant has shown pistilles in a few small places but the other one got none. But they are getting huge so what can I do? Or is it because I have stressed them to much maybe?
i will have a new lamp in just 2 days sp3000 so they get more space

27l pot is not way too big.
The small plant is flowering because it's root bound.
The other is properly growing.
What's 'a long time' to you? Because it looks like it's been flowering for a week or two.

2 options. Keep vegging it or flip to 12/12 to trigger flowering. You have alternating nodes already and no stretch. She will be a big lady after stretch. Hope u got the space lol

Has this Seedsman Lemon Auto not start flowering until day 65. It's either a really slow flowering auto or you got a photoperiod seed. I'd bet the latter but it's up to you what you want to do. Give it another week or flip it to 12/12.

Thanks alot guys, yes I think I will give it a 7-10 more days to see what happens. Then I will switch to 12/12 but how big is the chance to get an photo instead of auto? I bought them from Barney’s farm. I hope it’s because my pot is the size it is. I know it’s way to big and my other is way to small. But I now got it figured out maaaaax 11-15L is optimal for autos. I hope this flower start making some buds soon :/

I do have space that’s not an issue. I just want to see some buds or some hairs

What you mean? If they don’t flower in a day I start with new pots? XD
No I mean the term call it a day as in change to 12/12. You can wait and have a bigger plant that might auroflower but chances are it won’t.


Your yield for the actual autoflower will be slightly compromised but not by much. Might take a little longer also. But this plant will yield well for its well established.

So you are sure it will start to flower by it self?
If its an auto it should flower on its own without having to change light schedule. Mine started flowering with 20 on 4 off light schedule. I have seen some autos on grow diaries that took forever. Damn near long as full photos. Im growing 8 Bruce Banner autos. All in the same tent, all get the same light, neuts, everything. some started flowering 2 weeks before the others. A few of them took on traits of the non dominate side of the breed and it looks like i have multiple strains. The moral of the story is the breeder may not have the strain perfected and your plants could have taken on the traits of the non dominate strain. The non dominate side of the strain may have a longer veg/flower period than the other. Thats how it was explained to me in my case with the different variations in my plants when they were all the same. let it keep rolling, maybe you have a late bloomer.

Who produced the seeds? With so many chasing the seed money train there is a lot of very poorly bred genetics out there. I'm not saying that's the case but these days you can't even go by the name. Many are reproductions and nothing like the original and then there are people making auto seeds and don't run them out enough generations to stabilize the auto trait.

But you're growing 3 plants indoors in a tent under lights? Is there any specific reason you chose to grow auto's? If there isn't then just grow photo's and flip the light schedule to get them to flower when you want them to. There is nothing easier or special about auto's. They just flower on their own or at least they're supposed to. Day 60 is too long for an auto to start flowering.

I know people say auto's have gotten better but the majority are inferior to photoperiod plants. The ruderalis bred into them to get them to flower is basically ditch weed and so many auto's I see look like they have nice sized buds but also seem to have a high leaf to calyx ratio which is an undesirable trait as far as I'm concerned.

I'd flip to 12/12 myself.
