so my light cycle got messed up once, and one of my plants started showing pistils I’m only couple weeks into veg what do I do? Should I chop it or just leave it under the veg lights.

Yep just leave it. It should be just fine if you fixed the lights.

How long were the lights messed up?

Clone it as after two weeks of veg no strain shows pistils that i know off....

Or did you mean you had a seedling stage of a few weeks then two weeks veg meaning its like six weeks true veg and merely showing preflowers.

What was the light cycle when you messed it up, not two weeks of 12/12 by chance¿

If your light was 20/4 and you started seeing pistils then they were either pre-flowers or you have an auto plant. Neither would warrant cutting the top off. Just what was the purpose of that?

I love these cliffhangers.

OP if your plant is showing pistils and it's limbs are non-alternating I'd watch it like a hawk. If it's alternating congratulations that's pre-flower and you have a girl.

If either they appeared to organize into bud at the top, under 20/4, I'd bin it.
(N.B. I don't grow autoflowers, ymmv)

I might just toss is and I already started germinating another seed, the 8 inch plant had buds at the top. It’s weird it was just one day of messed up light cycle that caused this. Never happened like that before.

Are the limbs alternating, was it an autoflower and how many days from seed?
