New Grower my auto didnt auto, its been on 12/12 a week, can i change light schedule back to 20/4?

[anonamoose]

will it keep flowering? its just taking so damn long on 12/12, im used to growing autos and the speed they grow and im really impatient. been a month without any bud and its only just starting to shit out white hairs. what would happen if i changed light back to 20/4? what about changing to 18/6 would that be better/even work?

also on my last auto grow it had a couple seeds, im not sure if it hermied, or another plant hermied and pollinated it. if it did hermie, im assuming this one will be a hermie? will it be an autoflower and if it is a hermie can i just chop its balls off? thanks.

Similar problem. Mine started flowering about 2 weeks ago and have done very little since. Buds are tiny and don't seem to be growing at all. Using correct Nutes and PH is fine but nothing happening. Have them on 20/4. Very frustrating when looking at other pics of Auto's doing well.

I'd most would not mess with the light schedule at this point. If you do the likely hood of it going Hermie on you is FAR GREATER. Just cause your other plant hermied (could've been environmental factors and not genetics)
so leave the lights at 12/12 till she finishes up... Once going back in light unless you want it more than likely Hermie or trying to reveg it than leave it.
Sorry to hear of your poorly bred autoflower... Would you care to share which strain an co it's from so us other potential buyers of beans has
more information to consider if picking this strain. Thanks for helping us :thumbs:

just re-read this post and sorry for the poor grammar... This hash got me a bit off to :nightdrag: but hope you get the gist of what I'm saying.

If I find a reluctant flowerer I prefer to remove it to a dark place rather than affect my other plants, same results though. I like to think of it as the naughty step.

I keep them on 1:12 until I am confident that they won't revert to vegetative growth, I would say it is usually not less than a fortnight.

I doubt its your lights more info Is needed. Whats you temp ? what type o grow medium ? what type of nutes ? how tall is it how long has it been growing? and what type is it ??. temp and nutes will stunt a plants growth easily other than that it just may be the type of auto your growing my last two were worlds apart in there growth one was slow and grew to about 80" b4 it started putting on the bud the next one was a very fast grower and started budding from the start but only grew to 65" both were feed the same as I use an automated hydro system in an temp controlled room.

they are bubblelicious autos by nirvana, ive grown this strain a few times before and am familiar with it, but im pretty sure they sent me a pack of 5 photo bubblelicious by mistake. im keeping the light schedule at 12/12 untill they finish i aint gonna fuck about with em. been thinking about starting some other photo freebies 12/12 from seed i might start, especially tempted by the trainwreck & the green crack photo freebies i got from attitude heheh..

thank you for your advice, i just need to learn to be more patient lol

If you have never gone 1212 from seed on a photo I would think about it. You can potentially yield. Nothing.

But we all grow for different reasons, best of luck! Keep us posted

Hey!
Sorry to hear she's giving you some grief, stinks!
But on the other hand, she's growing and she has some flowers on her. Give her some time and she'll reward you I am sure.
And ya, patience is the toughest part of this hobby!!
Peace and :karma Cloud:
