Seedleranswered grow question 4 months ago Yes, so the funny thing with autos is, this can happen. They have it programmed into them, When they start budding/when they die.
The chance of this happening is usually small. At least if you have decent genetics. To be honest, if you wan't a harvest around 50g you should pluck it and grow another, in this stage the harvest will be tiny and it will still take weeks.
Im sorry but those things happen, don't give up, there is nothing you could do. i bet you still learned something.
Good luck!
