They won't bud any faster, they will just be smaller. Around 45-90 days depending on your strain.

well... i would certainly urge you to upgrade from a beer can before flowering. if you dont want a big plant thats okay, but you really wont have much growth AT ALL with such a small container. maybe a two liter bottle? at least a little room for your plant to grow. and yeah 45-90 days is probably about right, but you wont yeild much in the way of product. you said beginning of july and its almost the middle of may now, so that doesnt really give you enough time to complete a grow.

ah just read what strain you have. well you might just barely make it to harvest there, but you should definitely at least bump up to a 2liter bottle cut in half so you can allow a little more room for root growth!

i really wanted to do it in a beer can for novilty but i think no it will have to be moved up to a normal plant pot, unfortnally just booked a holiday and forgot about the plants, bad timing really but nothing i can do about that im afraid.

how long are you going? If you put it on a timer and you're not going to be gone for very long they might be okay. or if you know someone trustworthy maybe you can ask them to come by and water them a few times for you in exchange for a little bit of the product when its ready to be smoked. just a thought. but if thats not an option then i'd just say definitely move it up to a larger pot and see how far you can get in the next month an a half.
