HELP! Starting to flower few days after transplanting...

[Wayzee]

Is this a sign of shock from transplanting or did I get jibbed when I said photoperiods ? Should I top it FIM it or leave it?
They are less than 3 weeks old and only one of 3 has started flowering. Oh and they just started on their 5th node. TIA

Water, nutes and watch is all I do during flower anymore. Stunted to many in flower.

[Wayzee]

So let her go? Don't try and turn it back to veg ?

If it's an auto you would need to be Frankenstein to turn it back to veg.

I'd just keep an 18/6 schedule.

Sad but true

[dirtymike]

I don't try that. Haven't seen a cultivar worth that much time and money.

What little I know from a couple auto grows is topping them slows down the trasition into flower and feeding them N for a few weeks after they flower. Just so know I am a grower that will pull a plant that gets unreasonable

[Allenpro]

I would go 24/7 of the lights

[Wayzee]

Thanks for the input guys. I'm just going to leave it and bend it a little.

I tried auto flowers for my fit time this season and maybe being new I started too early. However after 3 weeks they starting to flower. At about 8 inches tall. Fortunately I have a few that stretched a bit however t he e twills will be minimal. Personally I do t see the attraction for auto flower plants at all. Lucky it’s still early enough to start something different. Plain feminized seeds were at least have some control over flower schedules. Just doesn’t make sense even though they’re faster you still waiting 2 months for lucky an oz. But a female regular I could grow out in 1 month longer and good chance of 8- or more zips. Do the math. I don’t get it Oh well I tried because I was very interested in this strain and didn’t even think about the inability to clone. If it was possible that was my main attempt.

Agree with FenoHntr. Autos are finicky, don't handle stress very well and can be a crap shoot in regard to harvest dry weight. This is why I don't recommend them to newbs.

[Wayzee]

Thanks guys, appreciate your thoughts and experience. Hopefully my other two are what they supposed to be and get going good soon and make up for what I'm going to loose on this bugger. I emailed the dealer to say I think there was a packaging mix up so hopefully I can get it sorted.

My first and only auto grow I grew out whilst vegging my photoperiods. This worked pretty well on 4 of them at the same time as vegging 4 photos. Total dry weight was 22oz for the 4 and I over did the N pretty badly. Lots of N toxicity but I got them to full amber anyway.

Autos do have their place but agree with what others say re difficulties and yields.
