New Grower 7 weeks in and only preflowers

[Mainemedical]

I have an auto right now that didn't start flowering til week 8 because it was stunted. Your ph being at 8 more than likely stunted her and slowed down the growth

ive gopt ph on 6.2-6.5 as recomened

 

[krazylicous]

o right, ph is on 6 to 6.5 now
8 weeks untill show preflowers or untill u saw bud ?

Maybe that ph trouble early on stunted her mate,but it shouldnt have been that drastic to not have any bud at all.normally at 7-8 weeks there should be some nice buds on a 10 week auto :group: keep the bloom nutes going,and if no signs of bud come in the next 5-7 days I'd reduce the light schedule to 12-12 in case it's not the auto version.:smokebuds:

Red Eyed might have a point in that it's not an autoflower, this happened to me with a Sweet Special, grew out 2, 1 auto flowered, but the other didn't, I culled mine, but it also happened to a fellow grower from the same seed batch, they flowered it on 12/12 and from what I remember, got a really good yield. If you do decide to switch to a 12/12 light to see if it induces flowering, it should only take 8 - 9 weeks to finish and as its already had effectively a 7 week veg, it might do you proud if it turns out to be photoperiod and not an auto

o right shame how can they muddl;e these things up its very precious lool
o right c so i reg seed wud only need 7 weeks veg ?
if it takes another 9 weeks i may uswell get another auto shudnt i ?

It happen to me also if u do have to switch to 12/12 the plants could double in size so u could get a very good yield

 

[krazylicous]

o right sweet
im thinking tho wat if its an auto just gone wrong
like wat if its dies at week 11 with no bud ?
so i may uswell start a new 1 shud i not ?

Yeah you can flower a photoperiod strain after a 7 week veg and no I wouldn't put an auto in with it as you'll need to switch your light cycle to 12 hours on / 12 hours off which autos don't like
