Auto ? Photo?

Do you think the plant in the bottom left is an autoflower or a photoperiod? My other three auto plants have already entered flowering and they are on day 33. Do you have any recommendations?"

day 33 is quite late, but there are oddball autos with long vege phases... they also get mis-packaged or some flaw in breeding cycle etc... should be rare. i don't know for certain if the autoflower breeding process results in 100% autos or something like "99%" of outcomes. I think it's damn near 100% even if it falls short because it's incredibly rare... probably more likely something got mispackaged or a rogue bit of pollen contaminated the process etc. if it doesn't start to flower in 7-8 weeks, probably need 12/12 for that plant. As long as you can provide same DLI over 12 hours, it won't hurt yield. All other factors the same, you need 150% of the power for 12 hours compared to 18 hours.

There’s definitely a known phenomenon where some autoflowering phenos take an unusually long time to start flowering on their own. So it’s quite possible that you ended up with one of those – an autoflower that does bloom automatically, but only after a longer vegetative phase.
