RQS Sour Diesel Fem is flowering by itself in week 6. I have had them on 18/6 since seedlings. Did I get an auto by accident? What should I do?

Photoperiods will not flower at 18/6........you have an auto flower.

This should be pretty straight forward to problem solve. 1) look at your packing the seeds came in, does it state it is auto or photoperiod? Maybe check you invoice if you don't have the packing. Or look online. most plances make autos vs photos vs fast flowers all different colours. 2) double check your lights timers, some have them on the light its self. others use a outlet adapter that controls the on/off time from the wall. Mine have both. If you have the packing and it says it is Photoperiod and you confirm your light is on 18/6 then it is likely these are not the seeds that are advertised, however this seems unlikely given the size of RQS as a company and QA they set in place. If you bought these seeds from a seed bank and not directly from RQS and they there repacked for stealth, these may not be the seeds you asked for unless you ask for them to ship the packing in a separate envelope. I was shipped photoperiods when I asked for autos before, same strain name and breeder just missing the AUTO part on its tin. Other then these two options listed above, it is not possible from everything I have read and know about for a Photoperiod to bloom under 18/6 so it would appear the light schedule is the issue if they are indeed photoperiods. Maybe there is a timer set on the light as well as the outlet? or maybe it is in error and its only on from 7am to 7pm vs 1am. IDK you gotta check it and confirm the programming is running correctly. One last thing is if this is a FAST version. aka a auto x photoperiod hybrid, these strains are not 100% locked in yet, some of the seeds will be autos. Happened to me before, when I topped it and transplanted it fucked the plant royally.

Hi if you haven't flipped to 12/12 it's probably an auto. If you didn't order an auto then email the seed breeder.
