Auto not flowering…HELP

1st time grow/2x2 Mylar grow box/Critical Purple auto/fabric pots 3g/FFOF+Wormc+25%PL. RH@65/Temp(D)75-77(N)73; 600W LED 1x1 / LS 18/8. Now on midweek 8 and no sign of flowering. 18” tall looks nice but weak. What is my next step? Running out of time, should I switch LS 12/12?

So since posting I’ve turned the cycle to 12/12, I’ll keep you updated. 1 night on cycle so far. No change in either my blue dream clone OR my Critical Purple Auto from growers choice seed.

My research tells me if I’m correct, that just like a schedule flower time in auto’s, the same applies to it’s life span. Seen guys who thought they had more time and plant started dying Mid-Flower.

And also will the auto, which is on the left, will it get bigger through flower? I heard 50%, true?

Hey mate, Yes I'd switch to 12/12 the ruderalis trait is likely not doing its job correctly so you'll need to prompt her to flower. Keep her on the 12/12 Hope this helps 🙂
