Help. Auto clones growing great but not flowering

[Chm]

I took a few clones from cb cheese auto. Growing great for past 60 days. But, no pre flower, just leaves. Tried 12 hour light cycle, flushing, bloom supplements. Just nice looking healthy bushes. Mother plant harvested two months ago.
any suggestions appreciated

Picture of a " cloned auto" good luck did'nt think you could clone auto successfully. Post a pic

Pics attached. 60 plus days of growth post cloning.

I did this beginning of the year. They grew, but were stunted. They produced a bit of bud, but the plants were taken early due to bud rot. Autos do what autos want.

Ck brew.
how long did they take to flower?

[Ckbrew]

About 8 weeks. They were taken from the mother when the mother was only about 3 weeks old.



This was about 10 weeks. they never got much bigger or fuller than this. Got some usable bud form the one on the left. Bud rot took the majority of them.

God dammit I am with you guys and I don't even grow autos. Try something new, get those autos to clone well, keep trying and thwart those claims an auto can't be cloned, well done. Love to see this kind of post

Thanks Peter. Now all I need to know is how to get these things to flower.

Flip the light to 12/12 and leave it.

You are positive it is an auto? Never heard of an auto not auto-flowering. You said you tried 12/12 but for how long? A day or a week or two. Also are they getting 12 hrs of complete darkness with no light leaks? If you have it on 12/12 for longer than 2 weeks then i dont know what to tell you. There is no trick, just 12hrs darkness for photos or autos just do it on their own. Could possibly be stressed from the cloning and that batch of genetics didnt handle it well, but dont know how you would force flower other than the regular means.

For this experiment I would of just left them at 12/12 see if they figure it out. This is nothing new it just changing the internal workings of the auto plant what it was intended for. You got some quirky mutaint for of marijuana now, listen to the folks who've tried it. I tend to side with Tersky. Best of luck Ckbrew tried it and i'm sure if you searched the web you'd find more information than just here.

So full disclaimer- these plants were supposed to be photos. Manifold training was done on the mothers before they popped flowers at 8 weeks under 18/6 light. The clones were taken from the apical node at node #0 serrated. Very early in the plant's life. Idk if this has anything to do with how it happened.

Well, joining this forum brought me luck. This morning I saw pre-flower indicators on the two largest plants. Just so everybody knows what I did to get these autoflower clones to flower, was cutting down the light to 12 and 12, using only bloom supplements after a good flush when I cut the light down. It took almost 3 weeks after cutting the light down, and making sure that there was total darkness during the off time.
Hopefully, they're now on track to flower and Bud.
Thanks all. Will post around harvest Time
