Live Stoner Chat No Flower Auto Flower?

[Rusty]

This is my very first grow ("you're a hooker? and i thought i was doing so well!") with LowRyder feminized autos under MH light with drip nutes and RO water. Everything is on timers and i change the water and nutes every week. pH and PPM are within range. So, after 8 weeks i still have no flowers!!! Only misstep might be a Cal Mag dificiency early on, but since corrected. The plants look healthy and keep growing (now 36", no signs of males). Yesterday i switched to HPS light to mayb force flowering. What do you think?

All i can say, swich to 12/12 light c.

 

[Rusty]

Thanks, just did, yesterday and found i may have run MH 24/7. Could that do it?

 

[Trapper]

If it didn't auto, which it sounds like it hasn't...then the only thing to do is run 12/12...
so going back to 24/0 isn't going to work as far as I know.

Once you've identified that the plant didn't auto flower, you have to start treating it
like a photoperiod. And a photoperiod doesn't rely on the type of light as much as
it relies on the light/dark cycles to convince it that it's time to flower.

Good Luck!

Are you 100% positive they are auto's?:dunno:

I have to agree with Trapper. I usually do. Either way, welcome to AFN my friend. You are in the right place for sure.
What strain are you growing chum ?

eP.

If it's an auto, 12/12 shouldn't be necessary. Maybe you got a photo instead of an auto on accident. :dunno:

 

[Trapper]

If you keep it on 12/12 and it flowers....you've got your definitive answer

I had an Auto Assassin that grew huge and wouldn't flower, when I flipped the lights it did.
