Plants developing at different rates

Hey guys! I harvested 10 oz from 4 plants my last (and first) crop . They were photo periods and it took about 5 months. So this time I have 6 autoflowers that are on day 70 since the seeds went in the ground. Three of the plants are covered with trichomes and maybe 2 or 3 weeks from harvest. One of the remaining three has just started producing trichomes and the other two are full of flowers still developing into buds but no trichomes yet. They all went into the soil at the same time and have been growing under the same tent. Is this typical of autoflowers? I’m sure the three slow developers will mature eventually, but I dont understand the reason for this? All the seeds came from ILGM (White Widow Autos). I would assume they would be genetically very similar. ? Anybody ever experience this?

Maybe the seeds are from the diffrent plant…
and even if they are from the same… Two childrens aren’t all the same…

Every plant is going to mature a bit differently, just like kids. Tall ones, short ones, skinny ones, fat ones. They’re all different even if of the same strain, seller, batch,…

That’s what I was thinking (and hoping)

Great answer. The one I was looking for. I’ll just harvest separately when each one is ready. No big deal. Thanks guys!

Genetics work in mysterious ways! I have 3 White widow going, and they are all different. Just like everyone says, they all do their own thing. I’m gonna have to harvest one at a time coz that’s what they want. Hang in, and await the bounty. :wink:
