LSD25 auto coming into wk12 and not flowering. Hydro bucket, GH3pt nutes and healthy plant.
12/12 lights. Is it time to kick her out of bed? -gog
 
Pics are what we need for reference but........it could take up to 2wks or longer to show preflower at 12/12 sounds like another miss labled auto flower.
 
here ya go.

Keep em going.

Any stray light getting to them in their dark spell? Backlight PowerPoints, LED screens. Is your timer analog or digital?
 
As far as I can tell, no stray lights.
Will remove backlighted LED thermometer from the tent.
Analog timer located outside the tent.
 
Check your timer. Change to a wifi PowerPoint you can automate ir just simply set a schedule at the power outlet. Simple and almost fail-safe. I use em here and they are rock solid reliable
 
Sorry man it's really frustrating to see this. Mines outside the tent also, bought a new one used it just in case.
 
Mine are the old, built like a tank timers with the tabs that click up or down to set Click image for larger version Name: 20240412_120759.jpg Views: 0 Size: 649.7 KB ID: 619369
power off or on attached lights.

If the color is as per the photo then I'd keep veg nutes up at this stage, it looks a fraction low in N but nothing to worry about. Maybe give them calmag nitrate suppliment and keep that up through the transition. Monitor color of leaves, look for lower ones darkening up especially at the tips first, that will be a sign to go full bloom and no added nitrates or very little
 
I had a similar issue with GSC autos from ILGM. 10 weeks into growth and it hadn't even started flowering. Could just be a bad cross
 
The one thing you can count on with Autos is them being unpredictable. lol. If its an auto a light leak shouldn't be a problem, thats the only reason I can see to grow an auto flower. How long has it been under 12/12? If your not giving it any bloom nutes I can understand not seeing any preflower, until 3 weeks into 12/12 I am going to go out on a limb here and say, any auto flower that hasn't shown signs of flower at 12 weeks isnt an auto so I would treat it as a photo period. If it doesnt show signs of flower after 3 weeks of 12/12 it may be hemp.
Is it stretching?

I grow autos because of the light requirements. I can grow different strains in the same tent as well as plants that are in different stages of maturity and not be concerned about changing or different light schedules. I am admittedly not a perfectionist. -tom

No pistils, nothing? Would like to know if it flowers, LSD-25 seems like a cool strain I was interested in trying. Maybe I'll just get the photo LSD
 
Its odd and I know its tough to call it quits on one. If you do decide to give up on it keep a clone for the hell of it just to see what happens. Photo's and auto seeds getting mixed is not that uncommon but not flowering under 12/12 for 3 weeks is unusual IMO

Well into its 18th week since germination, with no signs of flowering, I was about to give up on this disappointing lady but much to my surprise she presented me with pistils two days ago. Many pistils. Nice and white. So now I'm gonna get started on thinning her out in order to get airflow and light penetration. I'm not 100% on whether she wil continue to flourish but I'll put her back on 18/6 lights and week 5 transitional nute recipe while hoping for the best. Long, strange trip, eh? -tom
