stop feeding her...rinse all the accumulated salts from fertilizers out of the soil ....set pot in the bathtub..if using a 1 gallon pot,get 2 gallons of ph neutral (7) water....slowly pour the water through the soil ..let her drain well...let her dry out then repeat in a week...
this will allow the plant to use the food stored in the leaf to fatten the buds because she has no more easy to eat food around her roots. let her have the next week or so to rid herself of all the fertilizer in her system...the leaf will get ugly,brown,yellow, ...but,the buds will shine a beautiful golden hue when she gets ready.

(24 hour might be good if you are looking to either stunt growth/create bizarre growth or force a hermie)

I wish I had seen this un-true total bit of B.S. before now...I would have corrected this mis-information....
24 light hours is NOT going to stunt growth,or force hermies..nor will it "Create" bizarre growth...
I guess this is a prime example of why we need to follow the advice of others with scepticism..

Exactly! i've been running 24/0 this whole cycle on all my plants and their seeming to love it-no hermies,no stuntin!

I believe this statment in post #3 should be striken from this thread It's convoluted and just plain not true.

24 HR light made my boom with great growth. Nothing off the wall either. :smokebuds:
Good call goauto, that's gotta go

when all vertical growth stops....

I grew on 24 hr my auto and they were stunted as soon as I switched to 20/4 they shot up thanks to the advice I got when I posted pictures - please keep posting pictures every week and use a magnifying glass to check for disease and insects early - May Ganja Gods bless your buds - in Biology we learn the importance of some sleep for all plants - oneluv (24 hour might be good if you are looking to either stunt growth/create bizarre growth or force a hermie)

while I agree that most plants like a little sleep... and there are OTHER cycles that go on during dark periods (which btw IMHO DO have advantages) ....

the true test of an autoflowering strain is if it wll flower normally under 24 hours of continuos light. This is how breeders making crosses assure that their cross is fully autoflowering.

it does NOT cause hermies in WELL BRED autoflowering strains.
