Are they flowering early??? Would under watering cause this?

Yup, autoflowers just do things according to their OWN schedule - and you happen to have one that has a weird schedule... there's no way to change up their schedule - that's built into their genetics ... so underwatering can't bring them into flower, flipping lights to 12/12 can't bring them into flower, nothing can MAKE them flower OR hold them back from flowering when they want to... I would definitely do some LST on this grow to get the lower bud sites more light and increase the yield... otherwise, you're probably not going to get much out of her. Good luck with her ... she's just a headstrong lady!

Autos have a mind of their own.. they are beginning to flower given the stigmas showing. The consensus seems to be that there are several factors that can cause autos to trigger even sooner than the Day 30-40 range most ppl expect. There’s also factors that can force them to delay the flower triggering. My last one went 105 days total. For more control and easier grows , in my opinion, go photoperiod genetics

High SilverSlapdick, What a name 😅 But autoflowers will flower due genetics. She will still grow and strech for another 3 weeks. If you want to be fully ik control about the size of your plant you need to use photoperiod plants. But no worries this girl will still get a decent size on her! Happy Growing! 😋

@SilverSlapdick yep they are starting to begin flowering I doubt its anything you did and most likely just those auto genetics thats why I prefer photoperiod strains over autos because you never know whats gonna happen with them
