Hi, I’m not sure if my current plant is an auto or photo. It has developed pre flowers after about 7 weeks. I’m waiting to see if more pistols form but would appreciate any advise

Hey so after reviewing your profile it's more than likely a photo. If she was already flowering indoors when you haven't flipped our lights then it's more than likely an autoflower. But yours is outside and a bad seed like others have mentioned. I'll remove my other answer. Good luck fam!!

Would agree..she's defo a photo.. I see bag seed. So, when you flip just in thr 1st few weeks watch where the stems break away from the stem will be the V shape. Watch these closely for male pollen sacs or hermits and such. As if bag seed. She got pollinated some way either from exploding pollen sacs r whatever. Good luck.

This plant is 100% photoperiod. Otherwise it would have shown signs from flowering a few weeks ago already! Switch the lights to 12/12 to trigger your photoperiod plant to start flowering. It will take another 10-12 weeks from the moment you switch the lights to 12/12 First 2 weeks preflower and after 8-10 weeks flowering.

If she's in pre-flower and you haven't flipped your lighting to 12/12, she's an autoflower... Simple! Photoperiods will not flower or go into pre-flower without that flip. Good luck!
