No the only way is to wait for it to flower, if it takes longer than 6 weeks then switch to 12/12.🌱👍

no mate ; until they start flowering in more than 14 hours of light after 35 to 45 days roughly ; they are autos or else they photo-period

Hi, is it normal to be hollow in the middle?
I decided to top the plant and place the cut in a clone dome to try to reveal gender faster (12/12 cycle). But i notice its hollow in the middle, is this normal? Plant is very healthy beside that. Stems is very strong.

Why do my autos take longer than everyone else with same strain
If you live in a different part of the states or heavy LST make your autos take longer to grow. I see all these diaries that at 7-8 week there’s is not only way smaller ( I only have the diaries going now) and they are finished way sooner than when I have grown them. Thank you

How many colas can I fit in a 2ftx2ft before crowding becomes an issue?
I will be mainlining my plants to 8-16 mains and I'm trying to decide how many plants I can fit in. I was thinking between 2-4 plants, which would be 16-64 colas in that 2ft x 2ft area.

Potential yield
She's close to harvest and I am wondering how much grams she will yield..as you can see in the pics she's really tall (130cm) and full of buds, I already started to flush her and I've been giving her 275W of light with a 19-5 schedule. Thank you in advance :)

Have I ruined it?
Is this plant saveable? I’ve completely snapped the main stem while doing LST. I’ve put a small stake in the stem to hold it together and taped in up. Is she likely to recover or should I just start again?
