Kinda looks like preflowers when did u switch light mabey they weren't big enough to flower don't think its an auto
make up your mind guys hahaha, i almost chucked the plant out one night... is there a way to find out if its really an auto??? i mean i pruned it, topped it.... split the stem in half at one stage... plant almost died as well... strange??

nah didn't switch lights, i added an extra 6400k awhile ago but...

awesome help me out :D!

i want to know the max lifespan of these particular seeds!

and was Michael Huntherz right about this plant being lucky enough to get 1 ounce??
is this because my plant doesnt have enough time to flower before it dies??
or something else??

i know now i should have went lst at the start because topping it, pruning and shaping it put way too much stress on it, over watering it at one point took away all its nutrients and almost killed it haha.

do you reckon autos or just plain normal fem seeds?
I don't mess with autos they don't produce well for me I like to be able to decide when I want them to flower

Sorry dude, assuming it is a photoperiod plant I'm going to say you don't have enough vertical height for this go-round to get more than an oz. With better results in the early game you could get more. 24" is just barely enough height. I was wrong to say it wasn't enough, but it leaves very little room for error, which compounds the difficulty of being a beginner. I wish you the best, though, I wish all the cannabis growers of the world fat yields of dank nugs.

I did if I was u I'd toss that shit out and get some real genitcs all that stress so young will prob be a hem now anyway good luck with that man when it really does flower if it does keep an eye out for banana sacks cuz most likely they will be sum on it

Didn't I tell you that was not an autoflower. I said go less than 12 hours of continuous light and more than 12 hours of continuous total darkness? And then you said roger that doc. By rodger that doc I had assumed you meant you were going to do it. I even explained to you that cannabis is a perennial and flowering needs to be induced. That was what? ten days ago? My new recommendation to you is to take clones and throw that plant out because it will double or even triple in size when you flip the lights and a split stalk will diminish the yield. Autoflwers are plants that grow near the arctic circle and have adapted to 6 months of constant daylight. They will flower immediately from a seedling even under 24 hours of light.

You said this and then you said you didn't do it
shattered :(
yeah i've had 12/12 for a few days now.
i understand what you mean by slowly adding light, isjgoiji4jgj48hb9dghu98u34g8394gpodfgjrettt
And I said don't add light reduce it to more than 12 hours of darkness.
Not adding light but taking away light you're trying to mimic fall equinox.
Now you have me going back and checking what I said. . So what is it? Did you cut the lights back or not?

Looks well dude ,good shape .Tie the two top's down,this will promote the middle section of the plant to grow up a bit more let it get about a few inch above the side the cut the string and let it just continue to veg,till your ready to flip,,

Make sure that you take into account the stretch,during flowering it will more than likely more than double in size once flowered,un-less you manage it some how,via scrog or super cropping

i've had a guy say you should prune your plant... then weeks after i pruned it, some guy comes out and says you almost killed your plant by pruning it. Its hard to tell whos right and whos wrong.
If it was an auto, pruning is bad. Since it isn't, pruning is good, hence the confusion.

forgot to reply to this, my bad. 11 light, 13 complete darkness.
So you started flowering ten days ago and with 11 hours of light you could be looking at 40 to 60 days of flowering. It could double in size before its done. Show us that cracked stem.

Here's how painfully large shes getting hahahaha!! the fans really keep the lights from burning the leafs and really keeps the temp at a constant 27c - 29c.P_20160603_001427.jpg

and this is the reason why she's still alive :)
