Auto Question

[johnb1963]

Hello My Friends,I have a gelato og auto fem, bought a 5 pack of seeds, and this is the 4th one. the other 3 turned out great. but this one is starting on week 6, and is not flowering. any thoughts on why? i also have a watermelon og auto fem, that is on week 5 that is flowering. both in the same soil, same size pots, same tent, same light, same watering schedule. Maybe seedsman just got their seeds mixed up?

Could be a mix up or just slower auto. Is she fighting for a place under the light?

[cybersmib]

Sometimes ya just gotta flip the switch. If what I’m seeing is not what I was expecting or told, I rely on and follow my gut.

[johnb1963]

they are both under the same light, but it have grown 3 plant under the same light, with no problems. to soon to flip the light, i'll give her a few more weeks before i would do that.

I'm having same issue with a freebie from fastbuds/dr.chronics. auto somango. Shes been in veg for almost 2 months. I think I have to flip too but I don't want to with all autos in the tent. I have one 2x2 photo tent in use. So. Maybe just keep vegging, clone, idk

Good luck

She is a plump one johnb1963, and i noticed in the 3rd pic that most of the newer leaves are 9 fingers. Maybe just an oddball that needs a bit more time to mature? Really nice and healthy looking.

Here is my auto somango. Notice the date on the tag. 1/8/21



I really dont know what to do. I have autos and photos in this tent. Little photo clones and 2 photo seedlings. By the time comes to flip them the autos will be harvested. If I wait till then the somango (supposed to be auto) will be huge. It's already almost biggest plant I have.
any advice. Sorry to hijack the post man, just figured I'd get help and we both learn.

[SoOrbudgal]

Well I'm crap that's got to be a photo but i've had very long veg periods she may go 25" tall with the stretch?

[HobbitGDF]

Yeah. My 4x4 is 7ft tall so it should be ok but dang. Have to do something. Maybe clone the shit out of it

[johnb1963]

yea, that my problem too. I have 3 autos and 1 photo in my tent. so I can't flip the light, it will screw up the other autos. i do have another tent in the garage, a 3x3 with one plant, candy land, which i just flipped to a 12/12, 1 week age. but no space for another plant.

[SoOrbudgal]

Well johnb1963 as you know i've done some 12/12 autos with photos out of need for space. My autos were already 3wks in flower mode had budlets. We are smoking it now while the photos are within a week of harvest at least 2 anyway. I've not run them any earlier than what i've said so i can't tell you how it would work? But the autos we are smoking is some of the very best potent auto i've grown to date. I wish we had another jar.

[HobbitGDF]

Yeah I had to do it once when i had my 2x4

I think I'm just clip her and make clones until I need to flip. Probally another month or so.

Mine still turned out fabulous also

[johnb1963]

Lol soorbudgal, I have done the same thing for the same reason. The buds were high quality but airy and half the yield. Autos are definitely better under 18/6.
