It's officially week 4 of my lemon skunk auto. I've seen people with flowers anywhere from 14 to 24 days. All I have are little 1/4 inch pre flowers here and there. The plant is very healthy and pretty big. What's the problem?

I haven't done anything different, I'm just using 8 cfl's for one plant, water them every 2-3 days and using dnf nutes.

Also do you need to switch to 2700k for flowering with autos or just keep it at 6500k the whole grow?

Hmm. She may just be a late bloomer. Use as much light (6500k) as you can (as long as you can regulate temps) and try to be patient. If you're using CFLS I'd maybe up to 20/4, maybe even 24/0. Personally, I think a dark period can be beneficial.

Problem is likely that you put the new seedling into a large pot without using a solo cup or other small pot first. Plants only grow roots until the roots fill the pot. That's why we older guys first TP into a small pot. Roots fill out faster and vegetative growth proceeds quicker. BigSteve.

ohhh ok that makes a lot of sense, thanks! I was told with autos to never transplant them.
