Im at 10 weeks from seed. My plants are thriving getting nice and big plenty of spots for buds. However i have no pistils yet. I e been running 3 600watt led on both bloom and veg. For full spectrum. Im thinking about blacking them out forc24 to 36 hours to stimulate. Any ideas?

Your autoflower is well past its time to flower. At max some strains can take up to 2 months to throw pistols. This is very common on unstable autoflower genetics. Simply.. its the photoperiod pheno dominance. Just flip it to 12/12 like a typical cannabis plant and she'll flower👍

I would wait another week or two. You can always change light schedule to 13 on 11 off. I would do this in a few weeks if they don't go naturally. Just harvest will be less if you have to change you light schedule. Good luck and happy growing 🌲🌲🌲👊

Exact ButchMcQueen, Als ze na vele weken niet uit zichzelf gaan bloeien weet je dat je ze moeten bekijken zoals een fotoperiode plant. Het is best gek hoe vaak dit voorkomt bij autoflowers.. Niets aan te doen, ook geen grote ramp🙂 🌱

FWIW - I run into the same thing with some White Widow autoflowers I'm growing. I was coming up on 10 weeks from the time the sprouts first broke through the soil and didn't even have any signs of pistils starting to develop. I had been running lights 20/4 from the beginning. The plants were healthy, bushy, loaded with future bud sites, and gave zero indication that they were ever going to flower. So at about 9 1/2 weeks I cut their light to 12/12. Within 3 days I had pistils starting and within a week was well into flower. I've kept them at 12/12 and they seen to be progressing nicely. It could have been a coincidence, but I'm leaning toward thinking cutting the lights gave them the nudge they needed to start flower. Good luck with your grow! Butch

Hi ! Waarom draai je ze niet om naar 12/12? Veel kwekers doen dit als hun autoflower niet uit zichzelf gaat bloeien, of heel laat is. Succes!🌱
