I honestly can not answer that. If it was photo I’d say you did ok but since it’s a picky lil auto I don’t want to comment ![]()
I’m with @StonedCold13 plants look good. personally I feel like 18/6 is efficient for autos works fine for me. Only time I run 24 /7 is on Seedling. 18/6 will also save you a few pennies on power bill.
Is that the size of ur plant a seedling or is there another pic of the same plant but bigger
Some autos take abit longer to flower than others
@dbrn32 you an auto guy too?
Sorry all that’s in my head is db=led😁
I’m !earning the crew but it’ll take my slow ass some time.
I’m not an “auto guy”
This is reason plant isn’t flowering. Seems like sometimes while crossing there are some seeds that ruderalis genes are recessive. If lights on time is dropped this plant is plenty old enough to flower.
And the more you know! Thanks man, now I know. Will I remember, nope🙃
It is not un common to get a auto that wants to veg for 7 weeks. I have never grown on a 24/7 light. I also believe they need a little dark time. I only run a 16/8 I just gave the auto below to a friend. It is 3 weeks old and was on a 12/12 from start. I have grown on a 12/12 14/10 16/8 and 18/6. There is not a huge difference in any. Why run your lights more than you need to? Save a couple bucks on electricity too. ![]()
I run my lights at different times mainly for heat control. If I need more heat in the room. I run them longer. If I want less. I run them less. For my self. That is a pretty heavy trim so early. One thing you will find in here is if you say some thing is wrong. Some one will come along and show it can be done ![]()
I don’t trim that heavy till I around week 6 of flower. It doesn’t mean I am right. It is just what I found works for me. Each grow can be a little different too. So I am always learning.
You are going to end up with a lot of buds there. You are doing great ![]()
20/4 would be the max I would run.
You can force flip by 2 full days of darkness and then going 12/12.
I would look into lollipoping that plant as well, it will be fine. Just don’t lollipop it for a couple days.
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Going to do 18/6!
I think you will see more growth each morning when the lights come one. I do believe these need a littl rest like we do ![]()
No that one’s perfect time for a lollipoping and defoilation by the little buds I would say she’s 3 weeks into flower
Here are 3 gorilla glue and 2 northern lights i just lolilpopped nd defoilated today. Not the prettiest job and I didn’t go hard on defoliation on the front left yet. I will go further with it in a few days. I’ll definitely be cleaning them up more but right now I’m 2 weeks into flower
I had problems with 3 in back stretching during transition but that’s a different post ![]()
Good luck
keep it up
I took a garbage bag with of foliage

Hi gang,
Just an update on this very slow flowering auto!!
Plenty of action at the nodes, no white pistols though? We are at 12 weeks now.
Currently doing 16/8 cycle. Had 2 days of power outage so I thought that might help also with 48 hours of darkness.
Thoughts on the pics team?
Cheers
