That plant is a MONSTER! Nice Job!

I'm running a single http://www.advancedseeds.com/en/bio-diesel-mass it's day 25 and she's starting to flower. Noticed pistils emerging two days ago. The weather is not cooperating so that I can put her outside. We'll have two days in the 70's then the highs in the 40's lows in the high 20's! It's crazy. It's like the winter that never ends :(

Nice. That thing is a BUSH, dude. Could the tying slow the flower since it keeps having to pop dominant branches? I only ask cause I didn't tie mine and it started flowering in the 2nd or 3rd week from sprout. It's also not as bushy. I'd give up a few weeks to have gotten it that big though, haha.

Bro, over heated, over watered or over nuted. Need info and pics of her outside of the light in order to diagnose.

400w hps, homemade dwc system, gh nutrients. Week 5 from germination. Advance auto blue diesel. My question is at what point is it suppose to start flowering

Sent from my SM-N900T using Rollitup mobile app
You may have to switch your light cycle to more dark hours(16/8) but they look truly amazing!!! They should start flowering soon tho because autos can flower with 24 hours of light

20/4 is great for autos. I missed where you said your photoperiod if you did, butautos do fine at 20/4. Sometimes, esp with a short dark period, the plants will appear wilted a little while before the lights shut off. Wouldn't be surprised if this carried over a bit into about an hour or so after they turn on as well.

This is a stressed plant its so big any swift changes affect the hole plant back off the nutes and don't overwater. trim larger leaves that block light and lower branches that won't produce much this will help it bounce back. Since your in pre-flower and ready to start flowering turn the light back an hour a day to give it a kick into flowering even though its an auto. If what your doing is helping then you'll see results in hours not days. the plants droopiness will slow and leaves will perk up. Hope this helps also check your ph as well. Such a large plant will yield well if taken care of.

i think half the people on here just post shit just to hear themselves talk

if you dont know what the fuck youre talking about dont post

@ hrenzo its root rot you need to clean your bucket out and give a hydrogen peroxide rinse
i dont know the measurements so you would have to look that up
some people run it in their nute mix as a preventative measure

THE ONLY REASON
you cant run 24/0 with HID lamps is because there is a chance you can pop a bulb
so it is advised to run atleast a 15 min or so cooldown on the lamp and ballast
anyone that tells you they " NEED " a rest period has never ran multiple grows on 24/0 -
