Red Congo Auto (Is this a sign she is flipping?)

Ive been told white hairs are usually a sign of switching to flower but she’s still fairly young.

Anyway thoughts appreciated.

Pistils on calyxes at the nodes means that a plant is sexually mature and capable of flowering. Flowering will happen a week or 2 of these appearing with an auto. Pistils at the tips of the plant mean that the plant is flowering.

She’s in pre flower now, so if you’re going to get some stretch out of her it will be over the next few weeks, but it appears that she might be stunted to some degree.

If you want to try and figure out what might have gone wrong, give us as many details about your grow as you can. What kind of soil or medium are you using? How often and how much are you watering, and are you using any nutrients? Do you have equipment to test pH and EC/TDS? What is the temperature and humidity in your grow space?

The more info you provide the more the community will be able to help.

This was partially my own fault.

I got some clones from a friend of mine and this one got lost in the shuffle.

Shes in happy frog soil and I’m only watering every few days when she needs it. She is currently under a 18 and 6 light schedule.

For example this is the same AF strain i potted on 9/22 and she popped through the soil 48 hours later . She looks more like I’d expect an auto to be looking around this time.

If she’s a clone from a photoperiod plant It’s odd that she’d be flowering on a light schedule of 18/6.
That plant in your last pic looks very happy and healthy.

Yes indeed. This is pre flower. I took am in the middle of flower with my first auto grow. I was surprised when my little girls started budding. At 3 or 4 weeks outta the dirt. Maybe 12 to 16 inches tall the shortest. I’m talking green crack. Very healthy and bushy tho. They are close to 2 feet now, buds are filling in, everyone tells me I got 5 to 7 weeks to go. OMG ! The wait, the anticipation…
