Long story short i purchased some feminized seeds and 1 turned out to be an autoflower. My plants are outdoor and its started flowering at start of summer and wouldnt stop. Its been flowering about 6-7 weeks i believe. When should i harvest. Also it is foxtailing alot, we have had mostly temperatures above 30°Celsius and even up to 35°Celsius

In about a month to a month and a half.

@Jjgrow420 you cant see in photo but in a couple days there will be foxtails all over the top buds and there are a couple foxtails on the plant i didnt take a photo of. Overall from what ive read foxtailing isnt the biggest problem and some people like it

It just looks funky but the weed is still weed.

Sometimes its genetic. However most of the time it is due to high temps.

Ya i have no idea as to the origins of the strain and its probably due to the high heat like you said, weve been having here just east of toronto canada. Its hitting 38°C today and will be in the high 30s the rest of the week

Listen … about a month. Just Keep her fed and watered as needed. Rotate plant once in awhile to allow plant to get light in various areas. Give her some bloom nutes.

Good size auto btw.
Thanks ive never grown a auto and have no idea how big they get
I dont have any bloom nutrients only some organic stuff like blood meal, bone meal and alfalfa meal all high in nitrogen

One last suggestion , since you are doing minimalist organic feeding … use kelp in your waterings.
Seaweed solutions add beneficial micro Nutes and natural vitamins. Perfect for standard grow use and flower.
I use this over “ PK “ type boosters or synth bottles.

Best advise I can give you on that is use silica and kelp. It helps the plants fight high temps.

Another thing alot of my buddies use when it gets to hot is a sun screen.
