Day 49 autoflower not flowering? She's huge and I'm running out of room in the tent (58" and my tent is only 6 ft). Should I flip the tent to 12/12? Do I then keep it 12/12 the rest of the grow? How will that affect the Day 30 plant? Should I add 2nd light for smaller plant?

1. Like others who have shared, no need to flip to 12-12, she is preflowering. I would recommend switching to preflower nutrient schedule. 2. Consider placing the exhaust fan/carbon filter outside of the tent that can create more room at the top of the tent so you can raise your light. 3. Consider bending over the branches that are too close to the lights. Ensure you have a plan on to where to fold each branch as you don't want the branches laying on each other. Squeeze the branch between your fingers, where you want to the bend to be, and then gently fold over. Grow Weed Easily .com has a good article on super cropping - "Super Cropping Marijuana: Simple Secret to Bigger Yields", you may find useful. 4. Had some extreme stretching with my first grow, ended up needing to attach the light directly to bar, without any pullies, removed the exhaust fan to outside the tent and super cropped the crap out of one plant. Best of luck to ya!

It is flowering. It has been stretching. Don't ever flip to 12 12 on a autoflower. It will greatly reduce the yield. 2nd light might not be needed if the other is still getting light and vegging. You could also selectively defoliate the canopy to let light get deeper in the plant and to the other plant.

it has started to flower -- look at the terminals and notice how they look different from usual.. this along with preflowrers at the nodes tell you it's in flower. Probably 10 days, give or take. If you can raise that other plant up to a similar height, that would help.. if your light cannot cover the entire area of tent, a 2nd light would be useful. it just depends. there is such a thing as too much light. If around 35-40 DLI, you don't need anymore. (Daily Light Itegral is the proper way to assess how much light you give each day.. size of space and hours of operation are already part of the caclulation, so it is apples to apples. Your local variables will amount to a slightly different ceiling than someone else, but it'll be damn similar)

Its already in flower, flipping to 12/12 will not likely do much of anything other then give it less light. But at this point given how close they are to the light that might be a good thing. I would use some HST and bend them tops down into a scrog if possible.

12/12 for 1-2 days and switch back to 18/6 or whatever you are running. if you dont want your other plants to be effected, take her out of the tent after 12 hours of light. this happens when the autoflower gene is restrictive.
