So I have 3 autos and I can just sex them. They are all female. Are they starting to flower at this point or are the two not related? ---

> [@Reed71](#): > > All auto’s are female Beg to differ my friend. There are reg autos too. Introduce male pollen from a photo period to an auto and get regular seed with males and females both. ✌ ---

> [@420noob](#): > > how do the make auto flower seeds There is a scientific process involving chemicals that guarantee a feminized seed, one that will definitely produce a female plant. It is the same process with auto and photo period plants. There are cases where a female plant will “self-pollinate” and any seeds that mature can produce replicas of the parent. ( same strain, female, auto or photo, it will be the same) I am growing some like that now Autos, in general, are made by crossing with “cannabis ruderalis” they are a 3rd distinct type, separate from “cannabis sativa” and “cannabis indica”. Ruderalis was discovered somewhere (like Siberia) with a very short growing season and the plant had evolved to flower very early, like as soon as it is sexually mature. (generally 3-5 weeks) ---

The first few hairs that sprout at the nodes are pre-flower. That lasts about a week or 10 days. It is considered fully flowering when they form clusters of hairs at the tops. That is when to start counting the weeks. ---

Cool thanks so they are flowering but you don’t count flower time until it shows more pistils
