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.

Did they start to flower?
In week 15 of my diary I posted photos showing central colas of my 3 plants from indoor windows growth. They show many white barbs across the plant. Natural daylight here is about 13h and 30 min now. More details in diary. Did they start to flower despite it is not 12-12 yet?

Finish them?
I'm not relly sure what to do now. Some of the trichomes are clowdy, some clear, a few are ambercoloured. Cut it or leave it? Any suggestions were very helpful... :)

Duración de Floración
Recomiendan alargar las floración hasta semana 14 en total? El fabricante recomienda 10 semanas pero no tengo claro si son 10 semanas del proceso total (desde semilla al corte) o 10 semanas de flora. El inicio de flora fue lento por sobreferti de antihongo en base a azufre.

Hermie?
Should I go ahead and chop her down? Looks like the little pods popped open and I didn't see them 24 hours ago on the plant. I have one other plant in here which is the gdp gumberry auto. If I need to take it down to avoid a bunch of seeds just give me the word! Thx in advance!!

Wait for whole trich to amber, or just the tips?
Finally starting to see some amber on the buds. Got a better microscope coming tomorrow as getting pictures on the phone is a nightmare. Should I be waiting for entire trichomes to turn, or will it only ever be the tip?

Just want to clarify something as it doesn't really make sense to me. Does leaving your plants harvest for a longer period of time mean that it will be more of a sativa, and less of a Indica? I seen lodes of different opinions online and would love to learn more about this.

Airy buds after drying
For some big ass buds, they dried down a ton. There isn’t much there as far as weight. Can you think of any reasons why the buds would feel quite dense wet, but now that they’re dry they are very airy. 👎🏻Dried 6 days 70 F RH 50%, light air circ and exhaust fan running. Thanks
