New Grower Autoflower Week 10 Stuck In Veg

[JoeRogansBong]

Dinafem white widow Auto/Fem

25% Sm. Rock
75% Fox Farms Ocean Soil
3.5 Gal. Wide Growers Pot

Seed Start Day One: June 30th, 2013 (Seed dropped late night June 29th)

Germination Day: July 3rd, 2013
-Germ Time: 3 Days
-September 16, 2013
Light Germination to Harvest: 18/6

Lights - 2 125W 6400k and 3 24" T5 Tubes on the sides

Started Fox Farm Trio Nuts 3 weeks in after it started showing it needed them.

Watering is with either rainwater or distilled water that's constantly airstoned with O2 as follows: Day 1: Water / Day 2: Nutes / Day 3: Nothing and then repeat as normal.

Seed direct to pot with no training, cutting, or any method to delay the auto's time.

This past Wednesday marks the 10th week from germ and really have no budding happening, It's well past sex and starting to see hairs but it's well past it's time and had only planned on pushing to 75 days. Have the feeling light might be involved but it's veg period has been strong with good growth and no real issues, has looked to be strong and healthy for the entire grow so far.

Here's what's been done recently:

1.5 weeks ago started adding 1TSP Tiger Bloom hoping to jump start it (already adding 1.5TSP Big Bloom and 1TSP Grow Big)

Added one 125W 3200k bulb over main canopy

Just cut light to 12/12

Hoping to force it - then switch back to 18/6

Do have some Sledgehammer and thinking it's time for a flush... Did flush one before but just with water and not sure if it was successful or not but was noticed there was hardly any runoff anymore after adding the normal 1gal jug of water whereas it should be pouring out the bottom side holes of the growers pot.

Any thoughts or words or wisdom? Btw I'm making all of this up I just like earth science.




Update: I flushed with 2 gallons of water with 2TSBP of sledgehammer per gallon Saturday.

I have a Northern Light auto that grew huge quick but did not show sex when the other 2 in the tent had already sexed and were a few days younger. Thinking it was not an auto I put it in 12/12 and transplanted into a 5 gallon bucket then set outside. That was a few days ago and this morning it just showed one white hair out of a calyx. Meanwhile, the 3 other girls out of the same seedpack are starting to bud. I guess some are wierd. When I get my 600w hps later this week I may try putting her back in with the others but it was too difficult with her size and the others being smaller. Maybe keep it under 12/12 and see what happens. Mine are all in Fox Farm Ocean soil and use nutes. Have not given them Tiger Bloom yet. Only Big Bloom and Grow Big. Will add Tiger Bloom tomorrow. Good luck. Keep us posted.

Nice pic! Back on 18/6 and normal business, it finally sprouted so to speak and we're on our way. I think the push helped.
