Think I got another auto on my hands

After I got done replanting every plant into a gallon pot, I noticed on my THC Bomb plant what looks to be buds? My plants are in constant light, no darkness, so unless I'm wrong, unless a plant is auto, none of the plants show buds? I'm just trying to see if this plant is an auto, and if not, how close is it to seeing what sex it is? This was supposed to be a regular THC Bomb plant. If its showing what looks like buds on the top, wouldn't that make it an auto being 24/7 light?

I think it looks like a growth tip too. Are you able to take a picture in natural light away from that terrible LED colour?

Sorry about that. Here are two pictures I took without the LED's interfering. BTW, is it better to bring the LED panels closer to the plants? Not close where they can get burned, though they don't get that hot, I'm sure the fans blowing warm air on the plants would most likely have some bad effect.
rather edit than spam. Lost power for 12 hours and was wondering if 1 day of low light will accidentally throw my plants into flower mode.

Was about to make another post, then decided to just add it here as its basically the same question in a way. Anyway, the following pictures are from Big Bud Auto Feminized and Mango Auto Feminized. They are in their 4th week since germination. They have been under LED lights 24/7 and stand at about a little over a foot tall. They are showing buds I believe. What I am wondering now is should I treat these now as being in the flower stage and feed them fertilizer like Bloomz, or still treat them with the vegetative fertilizer Flora Nova, or do both? I was hoping they would have stayed in vegetative for the full 8 weeks that was stated on the packaging it takes for them to start flowering, but looks like they started at 4 weeks.

Thanks again Green75 . I'll start today, though most likely might get some nute burn with the other food present, but will do a very low dose and see how it goes, then wait a week or two if need be.
 
Green75 The waiting for medium to dry out wasn't a problem. As it turns out, if you recall I mentioned earlier I was watering my plants daily and a lot of people told me I was overwatering them so I switched to every 3 days but before I did I moved the remaining plants from water bottles to 1 gallon pots and when doing so discovered not only was I not overwatering them, I wasn't watering them enough as the soil was just about bone dry which was surprising because I had watered them 12 hours earlier and soon discovered the few plants showing signs of nute burn were actually from lack of water. I then realized it might be possible that the sprayer I was using might look like I'm watering a lot when in fact not enough. I took a 16 ounce solo cup and started filling the cup with the sprayer. It took a minute just to get 4 ounces. So I removed the head of the sprayer then tried again and filled the 16 ounce cup in seconds. Since all my pots right now are 1 gallon, except my GSC which is 3, I would fill the cup with the sprayer then pour it into each gallon pot, which emptied the sprayer fast so now know it takes 3 gallons of water to water all plants every three days. After I was done, there was 1/4 inch of water in the tray so tested it and strangely, the PH was showing at 5.8 yet what goes in is 6.6ph. This might be due to the fact I added a lot of new soil and nutrients for me autos which showed no nute burn using Bloomz. I'm using Bloomz and Flora Nova on my autos. I no longer use Miracle grow. From what I experienced using the liquid miracle grow I posted about elsewhere, had done an awesome job the first three weeks, then just about all my plants started showing deficiencies and after reading the bottle, realized some key nutrients were missing, so once I switched over to FloraNova and Bloomz, plants completely recovered and very few showed nute burn. Will test soil with a ph/light/water tester over the next few days and see how the soil compares. Can't wait to get my shed completed so I can get the automated system up and running.
