RQS autoflowers taking too long

hi guys, I have 4 autoflowers (2gallon pots, 40x40cm grow tent) from RQS and they were all supposed to be ready for harvest 9-10 weeks after sprouting, however it has been over 12 weeks now and my babies are showing 0 amber trichs. This is my first time growing autos and i was wondering if it was normal for autos to take a few weeks longer than what the seller says? or could it be because my light is too weak (125watt cfl)?

Very weak light, breeders times are only ESTIMATED, and sometimes autos don't show much amber no matter how long they go. If mostly all cloudy cut them.

Which autos are you running? The time the breeders give you are estimates. Some may finish that fast, others may take a few more weeks. And like someone already said... 125watt cfl is pretty weak and you may not get Amber...
