Harvest & Curing Average grow time for autos

[fatcalvin]

What is the average grow time for autos? I Have some NLxBB and Biodiesel Mass that were germ'd on 5-26. They all look like they have not filled out completly. They started to show flowers on 7-5. I know photos take 8-10 weeks of flower but i remember my last autos going about 77 days total and they were just right. Any input? Thanks

It depends a bit on when you switched them from veg to bloom nutrients. If you waited until vertical growth stopped before making the switch, usually around week 5-6, then expect them to go 10-11 weeks. If you made the switch as soon as you saw preflowers, around week 3, then they should finish in 8-9 weeks.

Ok I let them start forming buds a little bit before i gave them bloom nutes so they would grow some more. I got a few that look like it will be about 2 more weeks and some that look like 3+ weeks. All started at the same time. LOL. I had some that started to show flowers about 2-3 weeks after the rest!

Ok that is cool Muddy. The XXL's I let go 5 weeks before any blooming nutes and I was wondering about a longer finish time.

I didn't know what Muddy mentioned. Certainly makes sense.
Regardless I've always switched at Day 25 and I've had a Dark Devil finish around Day 69 and a Candy Kush that was over 100 days. It definitely varies from plant to plant
