Males usually show in 17 days and females in 20 days. Average 77 days from seed to scissors.

you probably dont have autoflower beans then. What is your light schedule? Autoflowers are supposed to be on 20/4 through out the whole grow. You could possibly have normal seeds and thats why they are taking forever.

autoflowers are dependent on the light schedule to flower so quickly. Im a little stoned so i cant explain it right. Its how their bread.

Any autoflower breeder recommends 20 hours ON and 4 hours OFF under an HPS. Thus skipping the veggin period.

You can "autoflower" normal strains by starting 12/12 from seed
