I'm sorry to hear it, but this would almost certainly indicate an external problem rather than any specific problem with the seeds themselves
The guarantee we give at Herbies (which is posted at the checkout) is that all souvenir seeds are fresh, genuine and will reach you in perfect condition. For countries where cultivation is permitted, we offer no guarantees relating to germination / feminised / autoflowering rates etc.
Having said that, we always try to help our customers as best we can. Please include your previous order number #***** in the notes / comments box at the checkout if you make a new order at anytime and we’ll add four extra free auto fems from our current promotional stocks for you.

Best wishes

This is good service for sure.
 
I find it a bit funny how they phrase everything. At first they seem to reject any requests, then they give you a really good deal. Good people for sure. Once I've ordered some seeds, got some different ones, reported it and they said I could send it back or just keep it. Apparently they'd switched up orders and sent me the proper seeds as well. Dutchpassion is the company, good stuff from autoflower-land. I'm really in love with auto's, I can't help it.

5 weeks on looking good added extra 160w 2700k cfl to leds
Mickey cc1 are those now 12 weeks into the grow? I’m having the same issue you started the thread with, 6 weeks into growing, auto, coco, canna nutes and still no pistils. Was yours an auto or did it turn out to be photoperiod? Here’s a pic of my Stardawg 6weeks. I’d appreciate any input you could send my way. Please and thank you

I’ve bought a lot of autos not one ever turned out to be a photo but it does happen. I’m growing some caramelicious autos right now that are supposed to finish in 8 weeks but as of today they’re on their 12 week but big as hell as they’re in 5 gallon pots. Ones 4ft tall and has only been flowering for 3-4 weeks and the others are being flushed. Point is, you never know. Grow it out, worse case scenario you’ve got yourself a mother. Take some clones and flip them. Then you’ll know for sure

You have 2 choices, either your auto was not crossed with rundellis in this case it's a reg plant, cut you light to 12 12 and see if it flowers, 2 you got a bunk auto you can tell, at the nodes you should see 2 little balls emerging from thes balls is a b shaped pistol, congratulations it's a girl, if at the nodes you see 2 vertical spikes, if you see these you have a bunk auto, oh it will grow look real Nice but will never flower, you have 1 choice cut the light to 12 12 and see if it flowers, your plant is 50 days old it should be well into flower. Pic is a NL at day 56 6 days older, cut your light.

Thank you guys, I have no choice but to put her into 12/12. The nodes have straight spikes, I’ll give her another two weeks and if I don’t see pistils I’ll 12/12 her. I don’t suppose swelling calixes are an indication of something good? I was under the impression that they swell up to prepare for weight.
Again thanks you

Don't waste your time if you see those vertical spikes at the nodes and not 2 little balls each with a v shaped pistol emerging from it it's over and will never flower, who sold you the beans?

Is she showing signs of sex at all? Makes me think it is a photo if she isn't show definite signs of sex. Thats quite a long time to have zero pre flowers on an auto, as they sex long before flowering, sort of like an extended 'preflowering' stage where they still produce new leaves, but begin showing signs of sex and developing basic bud structures. This doesn't look to have any of that...
*EDIT* Just examined the other pics below the giant one on your OP...I was totally wrong, those do look like preflowers developing. You likely have an auto that is just a long grower or is taking its time transitioning. Try to begin applying your base bloom nutrients. That should help 'influence' the plant to flower a tad bit quicker.

Logan, thanks for your info. She is showing, finally, female tear drops around the 4th node up. She took 2 weeks just to germinate and sprout, after planting in coco I used 600ppm canna nutes and another two weeks of real slow growth. The temperature at night was 17c for those weeks, and once the temps started to rise, she jumped into action, like a beast. Now we’ve started week 9 and look at her. But still no sign of flowering not a pistol in sight. I’m going to wait one more week ( if she’s photoperiod then more veg time only makes her bigger ) so if nothing happens you think I should add a bit of bloom to her veg diet?
Or try 12/12? Would that let me know if she is auto or not? Seeing as light schedules are insignificant to autos, a 12/12 transition should tell me if she’s a photoperiod.
Thanks again for time, keep green

Yeah that sounds like a good plan! If she starts producing an abundancy of preflowers right when you switch to 12/12 then you'll know she was more than likely a photo. If it's showing female sex then that makes me wonder if she's a photo, but I suppose it doesn't really matter at this point either, just would be nice to know lol. But yes, if she is an auto it won't hurt her to go to 12/12 so no worries! Good luck man sounds like this one has been a tough run lol.

Logan, funny enough this is a new experience up to this point. I’ve had wind burn, mites, gnats, over heating, cold temperatures, foxes digging to get to the bone meal, then as I had learned from every mistake I had made, I had to leave town for a week and was doing DWC so I got a “babysitter “at the 5th week of flower for what would of been one of my best grows ever, pic down below, and my “babysitter” accidentally gave her ph down as food. So compared to everything I’ve gone thru before, as long as she flowers, I’ll be thrilled. Thanks for your time and response.
