This is completely normal, Auto-flowering strains start automatically making buds (flowering) when they're 3-4 weeks old.

Read that it could be a sudden change in light? If i remove my plants from the room to put amendments for approx. 20 mins would that cause it?

It could be sign of stress. Sometimes extreme temperature changes can cause this. Also can be just this specific seed. Each seed is a bit different and sometimes you can get a early bloomer.

Tips to keep low humidity during flowering phase?I need tips on keeping the humidity low inside the tent. We’ve got an air conditioning unit (placed outside of the tent) and a dehumidifier in the tent. The size of our tent is 5x5x6. Days where it’s raining with high humidity it’s harder to control humidity levels. Please help!Week 14

Looking for some advice on harvesting this girlJust looking for some advice on harvesting really. Looking at the thrichs, I feel like harvesting now might be a bit early. I think she suffered badly from heat stress. if it were yours, would you cut your losses and move on? She's at about Day 64(ish) from seed.Week 9

Bud rot? Mold?My plant is a bit problematic ("quick one" Auto from RQS, outdoor balcony grow).
I'm a bit worried that I have to throw it out, therefore I would like to ask for your expert opinion. :)
1. Is the "brown stuff" on the top bud "bud-rot"?
2. Are the "more intense white spots" mold?Buds. Other

My plant is not getting me stonedI kept testing my plants the last 7 days and i am quite disappointed. I am also checking the trichomes on the buds regularly and there are like 20% amber and 70%cloudy and like 10 clear trichomes. I thought of flushing the plants for another week and then cut it down...5y ago

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo act2y ago

Bananas on top of 5 buds - week 5 of flowerBananas appeared on 5 Chemdawg flower tops and were there up to 5 days. Should I be worried that GWS next to it may get seeds from this?
Removed them but I'm scarred now they may have pollenated the same buds, or worse, the GWS next to it.Week 12
