Basically my ak47 auto is supposed to auto after 14 days. I'm now 4 weeks into grow and still no sign of it starting! If i change it to 12/12 from 18/6 will this def kickstart it. And if it does would it be possible to change it back to the original 18/6?? Complicated little buggers :wall:

If you switch them to 12/12 and they start flowering I would probably just leave them at that cause switching them back to 18/6 could stress them or put them back into veg. Tho I'm by far no expert this is just my opinion, maybe someone with some more exp. will know something more.

Also where did you get the seeds from? Cause if they where suppose to flower after 2 weeks and your now at 4 weeks with no sign, chances are they're not auto's

Hmmm thats what i was wondering about the light cycle. I got them from the pick n mix site and they were near enough the dearest autoflower seeds there. I thought might as well make sure of it! They are lowlife seeds. I only got 2 just as it was my first grow, i started the 2nd exactly 2 weeks after the first, its only on day 9 from breaking the surface. If by this time next week the first one is still not flowering then i'll go 12/12. I'm watching the 2nd one closely and tweaking a few things i done from the first one just to see if it makes a difference.

I have thew same problem with my auto AK47's. You can forget about cycling light, that won't make a bit of difference on Autos because light is not the issue, they are time limited and will expire irrespective of whatever light cycle they are under. Since buds should be there and they are not, I am confused myself. My presumption is that these Auto Ak's are just regular Ak's. So I am gonna do nothing at all and see if they die "budless" after 8-9 weeks. If they do, last time I buy anything from Lowrider. If they don't, then i was ripped off and they are probably regular or feminized AK47's and fems will be cloned and submitted to a 12/12 flowering cycle to see what happens. Bottom line, either way this turns out this was my last purchase ever from Lowrider seeds. They sell non performing and/or mislabelled crap! Lesson learnt.
