Auto wouldn’t flower until 12/12, switch back?
ChitownCannaChicastarted grow question 4 years ago
So I have this cream mandarine auto that would not flower. I had it at 12/12 for he last two weeks and it finally started. Should I just keep it at 12/12 until harvest or can I switch it back to 18/6 to speed it up? Will it re veg? Relative noob...

Don't switch back..
While it's true that autos don't need 12/12.. It's also true, that the seed you have might simply be a genetic outlier, lacking enough of the ruderalis genes to work as an auto..
- If it didn't flower by itself, keep the cycle as it is.. Even if it "shouldn't" reveg, it's a good possibility it will.

Yes, you should keep it on 12/12 switching it back could cause it to re-veg as you mentioned, just keep it where it's at and she'll be fine. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.

If its an automatic, you normally dont have to put her under 12/12 to trigger the flowering. And no need to stay on the 12/12 if it started flowering. 18/6 will not reveget her

First grow tips and strains pls?Looking at starting my first grow, I have a 120x120x200cm tent, and a 1000w LED light. What auto strains would you recommend for a complete beginner? Any tips in general would be great too. I'm hoping to have 8 plants, but generally quality is more important to me than quantity.Setup. Strain - Autoflowering

Should I Scrog? Confused!My garden seems healthy despite me. Guys I'm confused as to what I should do. Plans are to ScrOG at 18" (which I have never done) with a screen that is 3' x 4'. This screen would cover the entire container area plus about 4" over around the edges. Should ScrOG or just let grow?

The FLIPGetting ready for the good ol’e flip. What do most do you guys do for the light schedule?
Is it better say (on/off) 12am/12pm, or 6am/6pm.
Worried about daytime activities in that room.
My schedule will accommodate just about anything, so what are you thoughts?

Lighting, to early, flowering, can I stop this or no. New growerMight be dumb but eh ohwell 1st time grower. Need to know for my next seeds I plant.. So I messed up by putting my plants to early on the 12/12 schedule, now they are starting to flower. Super short! No way I can stop it right? To get more out of my plants?
