Well, if the seeds are all from the same source then it's very possible for them all to do it. Is also very possible for the seed bank to have messed up as well. It could be either or.

Believe me or don't. I started 3 Gold Glue(autos from Mephisto) in Nov 1st and they just got harvested end of last to beginning of this month. They had ZERO preflowers pistils for close to 90 days. I believe due to colder temps maybe 60-62 during winter in NY and no heaters in the tent. I also had air domes pushing air to the roots so maybe that helped prolong veg. They were only in 2 gal of coco so not that huge pots to delay. 24/0 whole life and nutes were GH Cal/Mag, Micro and Bloom(no veg bottle) at 2/6/9 ml per gal. They just took forever.

I also just recently had an auto go over 3 months until full ripeness, while it's sister only went 2.. I don't believe that people understand that auto's aren't as cut and dry as photoperiod strains. Due to their relatively new genetics, there is not a cookie-cutter type one size fits all answer or characteristic. They simply vary.
Gimmetheloot, if your babies are stalled out on 18/6 then do as BudzBuddah says and flip to 12/12. I think that you'll be good to go, these will simply go a bit longer than you'd anticipated.

You really want to believe ! Ok , they are the worst auto's ever made that multiple pheno's grow 60+ days with none of them flowering.

All I'm saying is that I've grown hundreds of autos and I've never experienced an auto that didn't flower by day 60 - or really anything close to 60 days. I'd actually be pretty hard pressed to come up with a grow where the auto wasn't flowering by 30 days in. And I've certainly never had to change my lighting for an auto off of a 24/0 schedule to force it to flower, it's autoflowering after all.

If you guys have had "autos" that aren't flowering after 60 days, please do let us all know what strain and breeder... because I personally want stay away from that substandard genetic garbage.

Might be a little “ hasty “ saying you won’t run again ..... I got a feeling those will plants will wreck your brain jus fine. I would cup up some cuttings since they are looking uniform and stable.

The ruderalis part is just a third wheel addition to the mix and sometimes stays in the background.
With as healthy as they look , try a cutting or two and see if they will clone out. I’m thinking that either it wasn’t an auto to begin with ( wrong stock item sent ) or it’s a regular / fem .
Either way it’s STILL a win . I actually like 00 seeds , some good tasting gear.

Ok ok I appreciate you point of view... so since they have started to show preflowers doesn't that mean they're about flower?

Day 68 all plants are showing pistils... I jus have reg ph baths to the smaller ones and the biggest jus got her first bloom switch over... should I switch the other ones to bloom to because they have pistils... at this point I'm kinda confused like are they jus showing their sex or about to flower?

They might be a killer photo strain.. But for auto's I only trust the previously mentioned breeders. It takes years to breed a stable auto, so unless the breeders have been quick on the jump to get their auto strains down, it's likely they are behind the curve.

They are just showing sex. They are going to double in size now if you switch to 12/12. Keep them on veg nutes until they stop stretching. Keep an eye on your space because those plants are going to blow up in size.

shouldn't they be about to flower?, if they're showing sex? But I think I will make a 12 12 switch.. I think in seeing pistils now though I'll upload close up pics later for you guys to let me know..
