Well I thought I would post this here and see if anyone has any advice. I am growing Auto Berrys and they are 59 days from seed and should have been done by now. My 2 small girls are flowering really well and I am hoping they will be done before I leave for week on Christmas Eve.

The Big Girl is my problem!! Now don't get me wrong she is a fucking gorgeous girl who is dense and has the biggest fan leaves I have ever seen. She is just refusing to flower. I thought I was seeing some white pistols a few days ago but now I am not sure. Once she decides to get with the program she is going to have a ton of budsites but she needs to make a move before she outgrows her home!
View attachment 1292867
I am hoping the other 2 are done in the next 3 weeks and then I am thinking of putting her in the dark for 24 hours to see if I can give her a little push to get a move on....any suggestions out there from more experienced growers would be appreciated.

Oh yes wiggle indeed!FuuuulllD....
you see the plant bottom right..
I've had me eye on it..
Because even for a DC..that leaf looked too big for AF..
so..I thought I Might see a bit non-af content
But..
That is me AF Girl.....oh Mossy wiggle..........
she's got Bat-Flaps..
Shes quite a beaut my friend and i have to agree with shroomy
id go a head and hit that with some pollen.
I think you are on your way to a massive auto myfriend
not only is she dominating in fan and stem but size too.
think of her alone in a 2 or 3 gal pot........
true beastie
makes my mouth water from hereI love this, the way that it changes structure to balance weight
ribs her out side to allow a hollow stem. I wonder if this effects dry time
and how far this trait travels. Does it go as far as the bud stems?
allowing a faster drying time? Oh the thoughts

Beautiful girl..love the fans...
how old is she...?
Is she auto berry like the rest..?
woops..FullD...I must have posted over you.
but the males aren't an exact match..
but hey..
first look/see on them and I'm happy.
I've got time to play.
I just wanted some of the f3's ready for my cold season..
the rest is Play Time..
I've still got about 40 of the original f1 sitting..
Before the BX..
I germed 140..
so I'm keep my options open
I would guess hollow..
but I'll check when I take the other males down.

First off lush looking ladies you have there all green and growing well.
The first two pics look great and that they are maturing well
they look to me that in about 3 weeks they should be really filled out
the last shot in the group is really early into flower she may take a while.
The big one may be one of the many non autos out there she may need a kick to get into flower
you may have to induce the 12/12 on her, IF she begins to flower like that you will need to finish her that way.
Few questions to better gauge a few things....
what kind of light are you using and what are your light times?

well thanks for the canna share especially with the special straw touch!LMHO....
but the little bugger is a Male...3 studs all the same..
bodes well though..it has me smiling widely.
Def canna vodka....Amber Nectar..
ChynaRyder got me to try it..and it is brilliant..kinda loosens all the body up.
Even though we are Cold here..I still get Good light levels...think Florida US...fairly similar.
dont feel bad... I've had to sit back and be green with envy for 15 years... now I finally get to shine!
Yup..and we benefit from seeing them grown first-hand..what better testimonial.
and thanks for the compliment as well...
and thanks for the help with everything...
and as far as your dirty little secret.... what dirty little secret?

ps - triple wiggle on that bottom rght naughtiness!

I hear ya FD, my snowryder that just showed sex a couple days back grew like two inches over night.
and my PJ closest to harvest just passed 50/50. in the process of flushing and am waiting until i start seeing amber on this baby to see the difference between harvest at 50/50. she's my biggest producer yet, should be 45-50g dried and cured I imagine.

That is what I was wondering.
For you m8..I was thinking more like Kebab sticks for the B-B-Q...
you know how they do it with the dried stalks of your beloved rosemary...thread the meat on..and get a flavour to savour...
Canna kebabs..mmm...mmm...mmm...
You seem to have an affinity with those clovens..you aren't in league with the Divil are you..?
Sold your soul to beat me and BH in the cup challenge...
it is all starting to make sense now...hmmmmm...

Thanks for making this thread!!!! I have no idea why people complain about AF. For example, I started 5 - Ak-47 x Low Ryder #2 , only 5 weeks ago. All of them germinated and all of them are throwing pistils like crazy. I had the plants in veg. for all 5 weeks, under 20 hrs of light per day. They are about 24" tall and I can tell they are going to make insane yields for their size. My last AF's were Afghan Kush Ryder and the potency and yield was insane.

I am sorry and maybe its just me not knowing or caring to know about autos. So please dont take this to heart. But my understanding was auto was shot for automatic defined as
1.
having the capability of starting, operating, moving, etc., independently: an automatic sprinkler system; an automatic car wash.
2. Physiology. occurring independently of volition, as certain muscular actions; involuntary.
3. done unconsciously or from force of habit; mechanical: an automatic application of the brakes.
4. occurring spontaneously: automatic enthusiasm.
5. (of a firearm, pistol, etc.) utilizing the recoil or part of the force of the explosive to eject the spent cartridge shell, introduce a new cartridge, cock the arm, and fire it repeatedly.
on automatic, being operated or controlled by or as if by an automatic device.
So if its not maybe the issue here is the name. I dont see how there can be an art to something automatic. Let take for example ant automatic transmission. You put the car in drive or park or reverse. You done. no art to it no skill needed then putting it the gear. Guess I missed the point of Auto flower then. And is why I will stick with "normal" Plants.

1gamma, you're right. it is your total lack of knowledge. or your desire to waste your time ( i guess it's not a waste if you have nothing better to do with it ) trolling people online.
go tell a True 10.5 drag racer there is no skill involved behind launching his 900-1200 hp car on DOT tires with an automatic transmission.

motion seconded and carried.... now... beyond the big commercial fishing rigs in here...All together now..
"my ding-a-ling..my ding-a-ling..

mossy, thanks for the bbq ref... be glad to supply the rosemary, time, parsley, sage, onions, garlic, carrots, potatoes... and if you like, I'll go kill a dear for some super tender venison steaks!
ps
2. Physiology. occurring independently of volition, as certain muscular actions; involuntary.
(As in flowering automatically regardless of light cycle) and if there's no art to it... why aren't you already doing it successsfully?
