Welcome to the world of unpredictable auto flowers! 18/6 would be much better for your plants, no plant has ever evolved on Planet Earth to grow under continuous light. Pants do need "sleep" and thrashing them with never ending light is very unnatural. Cannabis plants can only grow so much in any 24 hour period and this growth tops out at around 18 hours, meaning running your lights any longer than 18 hours, is basically a waste of electricity. 18/6 was derived at through 80+ years of research into cannabis and is not a random number. Occurrences like what you are having was part of the reason I stopped growing autos for ever. Not much you can do anymore, once they start flowering, that's it. She will maybe double in size, maybe only a third more, but not much more, and yes, they do need bulk light to perform to their best. Hope this helps,.......... Organoman.

that depends. You should give some more details, like how much light and type of light, growing medium

Hi! Many parameters can slow the grow of your plant : strain quality, low nutrients watering, over-watering, not enough light, not PAR/FullSpectrum lights, bad PH, etc… But with autoflowering strains, you must also take in consideration the root stress, who can trigger the flowering. That's why you can't transplant them and why you need to start to grow them directly in big and full buckets. I think you have here two problems : bad "purple" light and not enough soil/coco for the roots to spread. P.S: Wow, did Organoman just denied the existence of Ruderalis (who evolved to grow and flower during north-pôle never-ending days) ?
